Post-Cataclysm War in Northeron

The Post-Cataclysm War in Northeron was the conflict in Northeron that immediately followed the Cataclysm between the Grand Alliance, New Horde, Wildhammer Clans, Dragonmaw Clan and the Cult of the Twilight's Hammer.

=Battle for the Twilight Highlands=

After Deathwing erupted from his lair in the Cataclysm that rocked Azeroth, the Cult of the Twilight's Hammer launched a crushing offensive from their fortress in southern Northeron. Determined to conquer all of Northeron and rename them the "Twilight Highlands," the cult struck out at both the Wildhammer Clans and the Dragonmaw Clan of orcs that resided in the heartland. Both the dwarves and orcs suffered high casualties from the surprise attacks, prompting them to call for reinforcement by both the Grand Alliance and New Horde.

With the Alliance and Horde advancing from Highbank and Dragonmaw Port respectively, the Twilight cult was pushed back from the lands they had siezed from the Dragonmaw and Wildhammer Clans. Azerothian Heroes made their stand alongside the Red Dragonflight, dismantling the cult's presence and culling several elder drakes of the Black Dragonflight. Several adventurers delved into the cursed city of Grim Batol, but were unable to cleanse the dwarven city of its magical taint.

Siege of the Twilight Citadel
The Cult of the Twilight's Hammer of Northeron made their last stand within the Bastion of Twilight, the fortress of the Ogre Chieftain Cho'gall. From Victor's Point and Crushblow, the Grand Alliance and New Horde laid siege to the citadel. Azerothian Heroes stormed its halls, slaying many lieutenants of the cult and Cho'gall himself. The heroes also discovered that Deathwing and Cho'gall had revived Deathwing's prime consort, Sintharia, a black drake of terrible power. After a titanic battle, the heroes of Azeroth slew Sintharia and put an end to her experiments and farming of the Twilight Dragonflight.

=Alliance-Horde Conflict=

With the Cult of the Twilight's Hammer all but defeated and driven from Northeron, the remaining forces of the Grand Alliance and New Horde resumed their own conflict. Determined to take the land for their respective faction, the Alliance and Horde backed the Wildhammer Clans and Dragonmaw Clan in a brutal war amongst the ruins of the destruction wrought by the Twilight cult.
