Sindweller's Rise

A scorched and ravaged part of Felwood that marks place where Tichondrius, the Nathrezim, mightiest of all the legions dreadlords and the one responsible the corruption of the northern part of Ashenvale by implanting the skull of Gul'dan into the forest fell.

Tichondrious was slain by Illidan Stormrage after he absorbed the Skull of Gul'dan. The battle ravaged the landscape and despoiled the earth around it. After the dreadlords death, his acidic blood saturated the earth, preventing any vegetation from ever taking root there again. It is here that marks the place where Illidan freed the forest from Tichondrious's grip, to allow the rest of the forest to eventually heal in time.

Tichondrious's power is rumored to still linger here, as well as, perhaps coincidentally, a major Ley line that passes under where the dreadlord met his violent end. The Kaldorei have named this corrupted earth Sindweller's rise, after its demon hunter caretaker that always seems to be in perpetual meditation there.

To the Illidari it is considered to be sacred holy ground. The place that marks The Great Shan'dos strength and tenacity to turn the legions own terrible might against it, to face off against the impossible and emerge victorious.

Demon Hunters may sometimes been seen converging upon this hallowed ground to practice dark rituals and perverse rites while under the light of the full moon. While under the sentinel watch of its caretaker Feronas Sindweller.
