The War of the Ancients is a conflict that rocked ancient Azeroth some ten thousand years prior to the First War. It started when the reckless Highborne drew the attention of Sargeras and his Burning Legion, and was ended, after massive casualties, when the Well of Eternity blasted the supercontinent of Kalimdor apart.
Malfurion Stormrage, Tyrande Whisperwind, Illidan Stormrage, Jarod Shadowsong, Korialstrasz, Queen Azshara, Mannoroth, and Archimonde were major players in the War.
There are differing accounts of the War:
- For the account given in the Reign of Chaos manual, with additional material from Warcraft III, see War of the Ancients (WC3 account).
- For the History of Warcraft, and in-game book version, see War of the Ancients (WoW account).
