Refuge Cove

Refuge Cove is a coastal region in western Val'sharah home to a number of Gilnean settlements and hamlets established by refugees fleeing the Third War and the Northgate Rebellion.

It is the site of the War for Refuge Cove, a battle for control of the cove between the Alliance, the Horde and the Burning Legion.

Farimond
The Blades of Greymane's base of operations on the Broken Isles, located on the southern tip of the cove. They are at odds with the Horde in Crom'gar.

The outpost of Banehold, near Bridgeport, is held by the Farimond garrison.

Crom'gar
The base of operations of the Crom'gar Warband, a coalition of Horde forces formed from various forces that opposed the Ashen Coast. The Cobalstants, Kor'kron veterans and others have rallied under High Warlord Grogus Rockmaw. Located on the northern cusp of the cove, it also holds the nearby Crankshaft Compound as well as a lumber yard near Esterwyld.

Dreadhold
A floating castle ripped from the lands of the Ashen Coast, the Dreadhold serves as the headquarters for Lord Hendrick Cobalstant and the servants of the House of Cobalstant.

Hamlets and Settlements
The majority of the settlements of Refuge Cove are neutral, having fled Gilneas to avoid having to fight the undead or their fellow countrymen. Ridgeshire was the only town that had initially sided with the Blades' interests in the Cove. However, around mid-1149 F.A. the town of Cresthurst reached out to the garrison of Farimond for aid, followed by pledging themselves to the Alliance once more after the Blades relieved them from the Legion siege.

The various settlements of Refuge Cove include:
 * Bridgeport
 * Cresthurst
 * Esterwyld
 * Farhold
 * Ridgeshire
