When the world of Azeroth was young, the god-like titans brought order
to it by reshaping its lands and seas. Throughout their great work,
they followed a magnificent design for what they envisioned Azeroth
would become. Although the titans departed Azeroth long ago, that design
endures to this day. It is known as the Emerald Dream, a lush and
savagely primal version of the World of Warcraft.
Many are the mysteries surrounding the Emerald Dream and its reclusive
guardians, the green dragonflight. In times past, druids have entered
the Dream to monitor the ebb and flow of life on Azeroth in their
never-ending quest to maintain the delicate balance of nature.
However, not all dreams are pleasant ones. Recently the Emerald
Nightmare, an area of corruption within the Emerald Dream, began growing
in size, transforming the Dream into a realm of unimaginable horror.
Green dragons have been unexpectedly caught up in the Nightmare,
emerging from it with shattered minds and twisted bodies. Druids who
have entered the darkening Dream lately have found it
difficult--sometimes even impossible--to escape.
Nor are these the Nightmare's only victims: more and more people are
being affected. Even Malfurion Stormrage, first and foremost of the
druids on Azeroth, may have fallen victim to this growing threat. As
uncontrollable nightmares spread across the world, a desperate quest
begins to find and free the archdruid.
Soon nature's enemies will learn the true meaning of the name Stormrage.
