A continent never before seen, an elven family never before seen, a starkly different fate. Following the War of the Ancients, the Night Elves were divided. The Night Elves, led by Malfurion, believed magic would attract demons and advocated for its prohibition. The High Elves, led by Dath'Rema, believed magic could not be abandoned, as it was woven into their very being. The Elves, led by Snyder, believed magic could not be abandoned, but must be used with caution. They also believed that power was not right or wrong, but the human heart. Thus, three factions, three political systems, and three nations emerged.
