Arc:The Ice Plague Cometh

Frostmaw has always been in constant battle with the exiled Frost Giants, once proud citizens of the City of War, only to be made outcasts for crimes and acts of cowardice. False Jarls have risen and fallen, but one, the Ex-General Hrathgar, is more determined than any of his predecessors to bring Frostmaw to its knees. With unholy pacts and a year-long scheme in his deck, the Death Knight prepares to strike.

In Chartsend, a young legionnaire receives a vision in his dreams from Arkhen, warning him of the dangers threatening Frostmaw:

"The hand of the abyss touches Winter, tainting the snow with blood. Ice meets darkness and the Lady falls. Beware the prideful show of the mighty! Friends and allies heed the call..."

Time will tell, whether his dreams speak truth or not.
