[[Weathered Nomad]]. gives the quest [[Quest:Fire_From_the_Sky_(daily)]].
The '''Abyssal Maw''' is the great ocean of the [[Elemental Plane]], surrounding the land and constantly assaulting it with waves and storms. The water is vast and in many places very deep, sometimes nearly reaching the realm of fire far below. The liquid itself is constantly changing — sometimes salty or murky, other times fresh and clear. Creatures of the element abound, along with some large beasts such as the [[Krakken]], but the seas are otherwise curiously devoid of life.

[[Neptulon|Neptulon the Tidehunter]] lives within the depths of the seas, jealously protecting his realm from any threat. He constantly battles with [[Ragnaros|Ragnaros the Firelord]], who is always trying to break through to smite the ocean with his heat. The Tidehunter keeps the seas surging and in constant motion, battering at the earthly realm with waves and storms. A wise and powerful being, Neptulon keeps many secrets, for reasons only a creature of water can truly understand.

==Patch changes==
The surface of the [[Elemental Plane]]’s ocean is dotted with a few small islands of rock that yet resist [[Neptulon]]'s endless assault on the land. At the point farthest from [[Therazane]]’s domain there floats a mile-wide shelf of solid ice known as the [[Frostland]]. Like an immense iceberg, the [[Frostland]] extends far underneath the surface, almost to the ocean floor. Smaller chunks of ice break free occasionally and drift across the seas, slowly melting as they come nearer to [[Deephome]]. Some of these bergs are occupied by [[Elemental#Elemental Conglomerate|ice elemental conglomerate]]s or other creatures.<ref>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', 139</ref>

In ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' it is a dungeon hub located in [[Vashj'ir]].
 
 
The first of two wings, known simply as Abyssal Maw, was announced at [[BlizzCon 2009]]. It is suitable for a 5-man level 81-83 party.
 
 
The second wing, [[Throne of the Tides]], is 5-man instance for level 82-84 players and was revealed at the official [[Vashj'ir] preview.<ref>http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/features/vashjir.html</ref>

:'' '''Azeroth's native elementals wreaked havoc across the world while they were under the influence of the [[Old God]]s.'''
 
 
:''To keep Azeroth safe from these threats, the [[titans]] imprisoned the Old Gods underground and banished the savage elementals to the titan-constructed Elemental Plane, a secure dominion where the elementals could dwell without harming Azeroth.
 
 
:''Four domains were created within this primordial realm to serve as ideal environments for each type of elemental. For ages since, the elementals of air, water, earth, and fire have engaged in endless strife with each other, waging titanic battles in the confines of their realm. One of the Elemental Plane's domains, a vast ocean known as the Abyssal Maw, is home to the [[Elemental#Water Elemental|water elementals]]. Legend says that [[Neptulon the Tidehunter]], the powerful being who rules over the aquatic realm, possesses a potent weapon that allows its owner to control the very seas of Azeroth. Thus far, the artifact has remained secure inside the water elementals' domain... but that will soon change.
 
 
:''Within [[Deepholm]], the domain of the earth elementals, the malefic Dragon Aspect [[Deathwing]] is on the verge of executing a catastrophic act: to burst forth from the Elemental Plane into [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]]. Doing so will ravage the surface of the world and breach the barrier that separates Azeroth from the elementals' realm. Whether Neptulon and his subjects have entered into an alliance with Deathwing remains unknown. Regardless, if Deathwing's actions create an opening into the Abyssal Maw, nefarious and honorable factions alike will seek out the fabled weapon carried by Neptulon. Whoever secures the artifact will have control over the world's seas, a power that perhaps no one, not even members of the [[Horde]] or the [[Alliance]], should possess.
