Warcraft Short Story: 'The Quiet at the End of Us'

As Orweyna grew from seed to sapling in the wilds of Harandar, Amarakk was always at her side-the steady voice of reason who helped ground her wilder impulses. Amarakk became both her confidante and co-conspirator until the day Orweyna learned how to open a rootway to a place long forbidden to the Haranir, Azeroth. With one visit to the surface world, the bond between these two children became so much more.

Discover a vibrant tale of friendship, loss, and the lengths friends will travel to save each other ahead of World of Warcraft: Midnight. Join Amarakk for a special fireside telling of our newest short story-The Quiet at the End of Us.
