Once the seat of power for [[Lich King|Arthas Menethil]], the previous Lich King, Icecrown was a dark and imposing realm, virtually lifeless, populated by thousands upon thousands of the tormented undead. With the death of Arthas, a new [[Bolvar_Fordragon|Lich King]] has come to dominate, and his iron will holds the undead Scourge in dreamless slumber, keeping the rest of Azeroth safe.

The [[Ashen Verdict]], an order composed of paladins from the [[Argent Crusade]] and death knights from the [[Knights of the Ebon Blade]], have become the new inhabitants of [[Icecrown Citadel]], watching over the newly crowned Lich King and ensuring that none disturb his unholy slumber, lest the dark power he now wields overtake him and unleash a new evil upon the world.
