After the apocalyptic battle at Mount Hyjal, when the demons of the Burning Legion were driven out of Azeroth, several months have passed. A mysterious energetic rift found in the mountains of Kalimdor sends three former warriors into the distant past—back when there were no orcs, no humans, and not even the high elves on the land. The era when the dark titan Sargeras and his demon minions convinced Queen Azshara and her Highborn to cleanse Azeroth of the lesser races. The age of the peak of power of the dragon aspects, who do not yet know that one of them will soon proclaim the arrival of darkness that will envelop the whole world...

But even if these reluctant allies manage to convince the demigod Cenarius and the distrustful night elves of Queen Azshara’s betrayal, the gates for the Burning Legion into Azeroth will still open. And this time, the battle for the past may change the future…
