Saint Varyk's Cathedral

Saint Varyk's Cathedral is the primary place of worship for the citizens of Wolf's Crossing. Originally known as Wolf's Chapel, the cathedral was commissioned by Varyk Blackmorn shortly after he bent a knee to the house of Menethil. The cathedral was completed in Varyk's thirty-ninth year and with the help of Brother Thomas Wynn and two Clerics of Northshire, services began the year after. In the years that followed, Varyk and his chapel were responsible for spreading the Light's virtues to the people of the region and beyond. In addition to regular Sunday services, the chapel offered alms to the poor and raised money for various improvements to the nearby villages. After his death at the age of 64, Varyk himself was entombed beneath the chapel he so loved. The years that followed saw many improvements to the chapel, including the addition of beautiful, stained-glass windows throughout the main hall, a wing dedicated to housing the poor, an infirmary for the sick and a rectory, where future Priests and clergy were trained. Two generations after Varyk's death, the chapel was renamed, Saint Varyk's Cathedral.

After the fall of Lordaeron, Saint Varyk's served as a refuge for citizens ravaged by the scourge, but many of its clergy were slain while aiding the people of the neighboring villages and most of the Church's funds were diverted to the defense of the region at Jon Blackmorn's behest.
