But even with this victory, there came a price. The earth, already weakened from the bombardment, began to fragment and collapse as the Cataclysm continued, and an evacuation of Duskhaven was put together before the town was completely consumed.

| − | Within this dark forest, the Gilneans met the [[night elf|night elves]], who told them of the origins of the worgen curse - that long ago, the [[Druids of the Scythe]] had abandoned the balance and allowed the beast within to consume them. They had been banished to the [[Emerald Dream]] to sleep for eternity under [[Tal'doren]], the wild tree in the Blackwald...but not before their curse had spread. [[Darius Crowley|Lord Darius Crowley]], who had also been transformed into a worgen and had managed to regain the balance between man and beast, revealed that the Forsaken were not only after the lands of Gilneas, they were after something that could bring the worgen under their control - the [[Scythe of Elune]]. Aided by [[Tobias Mistmantle]] and his trackers, the worgen killed Sylvanas' [[dark ranger]]s and reclaimed the precious artifact. Knowing that the alchemy that had returned their minds to them would not last long, the worgen drank of the waters of Tal'doren, and restored the balance between human and beast. [[Genn Greymane|King Genn Greymane]] himself came to the Blackwald and revealed that he too had been affected by the curse, and joined with all of his people to drive the Forsaken from their lands. |

Upon learning that Greymane himself had been cursed, Godfrey put a plan into motion that he believed would save Gilneas.
