Stormblade Shrine

The Stormblade shrine is located in the highest mountain between Stormblade Village and the Valley of Bones. Much like those of Arathi and the Throne of the Elements, it is made of a semi-circle of big runestones, with the bigger one at the middle holding the clan’s rune. Built during the Fourth War by Nurzum Stormbreaker, it maintains a gateway to the Shadowlands first opened by the The Stormblade. An ever-burning bonfire at the center of the shrine reflects the connection between this world and the next.

A link between worlds
The shrine works as an empowering link between the living Stormblades and their ancestors. If a clan member climbs his way into the shrine and prays, most likely their ancestors will hear it and come. However, normal people will only feel their presence. To see and interact with them, one must either already have the ability to see spirits or be allowed to do so through a ritual with The Stormblade.

Guardians of the Shrine
Formerly, its only protection was the jade cloud serpent Gao Zhen, but now there are two active guardians to protect it: traditional clan armor and a runic sword like Dreg’thal’s original Stormblade. In life, Garadosh was a wolf rider known as a dragonslayer. Vrykul of Stormheim, which bears the soul of a fallen vrykul Van’kar, a servant of Karthys Sorrowsong. It can summon a powerful lance capable of banishing evils.
