Glorious Dawn

Glorious Dawn is a Gryphon-class Destroyer originally constructed in Stormwind City. The ship began life as a galleon known as Uther's Providence that ferried missionaries from the Church of the Holy Light from Stormwind Harbor to destinations abroad, but was repurposed for war following the events of the Shattering. Stormwind Royal Industries played a major role in the retrofit, arming the formidable warship with one hundred broadside guns, allowing it to hold the line in naval engagements against superior numbers.

In recent times, it has served as the flagship of Grand Marshal Ashamal Shalah'aman, providing the populous fleet of the 117th Division with a state of the art vessel to dominate the seas for the Grand Alliance. With the indefinite disbandment of the 117th, the invasion of Draenor, and the retirement of Ashamal Shalah'aman from the Alliance military, the operational future of the Glorious Dawn remains uncertain.
