pre-Cataclysm (3.3.3 & 3.3.5)
Gnomeregan will be recaptured before Cataclysm!
A couple of very very very interesting achievements were added to the game files with this patch. I'm pretty sure it wasn't intentional but ...
Gnomecoming King - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
Gnomecoming Queen - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
Apparently, parts of the pre-Cataclysm event have been deployed in this patch and retaking Gnomeregan will be part of it!
Blizzard didn't forget about horde players, it looks like Trolls will play a big part in the pre-Cataclysm event for the Horde :
New taxi nodes
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue Troll Taxi Bat Start (#438)
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue Troll Recruit End (#439)
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue - Troll Battle End (#440)
After going through the patch files I found a couple of extra spells that might be related to the event, see the spell comparison part of the new. Also, both Vol'jin and Mekkatorque had their appearance updated.
New Mounts
Wooly White Rhino - Summons and dismisses a rideable White Wooly Kodo. This is a very fast mount.
Blazing Hippogryph - Summons and dismisses a rideable Blazing Hippogryph. This mount changes depending on your Riding skill and location.
New Pets
Frigid Frostling - Right Click to summon and dismiss your Frigid Frostling.
Blue Clockwork Rocket Bot - Right Click to summon and dismiss your wind-up Clockwork Rocket Bot.
The Ruby Sanctum
A powerful war party of the Black Dragonflight, led by the fearsome Twilight dragon, Halion, have launched an assault upon the Ruby Sanctum beneath Wyrmrest Temple. By destroying the sanctum, the Black Dragonflight look to crush those that would stand in the way of their master’s reemergence into Azeroth and to ultimately shatter the Wyrmrest Accord – the sacred bond that unites the dragonflights.
The battle that is to come will surely deal a crippling blow to the Red Dragonflight, however, it is up to you to stop this unprecedented offensive and defend the Ruby Sanctum. First you must face the assault of Halion's servants, Saviana Ragefire, Baltharus the Warborn, and General Zarithrian, before squaring off against Halion the Twilight Destroyer, a new and deadly force in this realm.
The Ruby Sanctum will feature 10- and 25-player content, Heroic difficulties and all-new rewards! Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to its release.

Топик будет обновляться.
[спойлер]Возможное возвращение ЧоГалла в пре-Катаклизм эвенте.
You have successfully defended Orgrimmar from the threat posed by this Twilight's Hammer cult,, and without shedding the blood of our own people. Our enemy will not rest for long. I cannot imagine that Cho'Gall will accept defeat so easily.
You must take word to Thrall. Go to the Valley of Wisdom and speak to him in Grommash Hold. Tell the warchief that our enemies have shown themselves and we must be prepared for their return. Look at the other quests too they are interesting...

There are also these VERY interesting NPC's;

http://db.mmo-champion.com/c/38831/slain-bluffwatcher/
Anything marked [DND] means it's not meant to be targettable (similar to these earthquake mobs) and [PH] is placeholder. "Bunny" NPC's are usually used as triggers or traps to part of an event (for example, Thorim jumping down from his platform is trggered by getting close to a "bunny" npc, which can be seen by tracking undead).
What does it mean?
A) We'll see the dark iron returning
B) There's gonna be a Thunder Bluff event, with the normal guards being slain
C) The Grimtotem ARE definately making a return
Additionally, there's a new instance BESIDES the Ruby Sanctum.... Stormwind;

ну ты ваще ппц задрот((((((((
мда ...
Как меня забавляют эти домыслы. Думайте дальше, лол.
А да, ты же у нас работница Близзард %)
Уащпевсенаешь!
Домыслы с ммо-чампиона почти всегда оказываются правдой, первые слухи о Рубиновом Святилище например появились еще до выхода колизея.
Мыше-маунтов мне запилите, блджад!
Переведи, *ля =(
Кому перевести? Тебе перевсти, епт! Учи олбанский!*удтвлен, что не полилось фикальное масло*
Короче у Гномов будет Гномереган, а у троллей острова-эхо. А еще в пре-эвенте катаклизма будет ЧоГалл который вместе с Культом Сумеречного молота повнит Штормвинд и Оргриммар.
ЧоГал выжил после МеДана? ОМГ
Видимо)
Посмотрите комикс как Чо'Галл ресает К'туна и фалломорфирует.
Ну, а вконце комикса МеДан и новый орден Тирисфаля убивают ЧоГала/КТуна.
Хуй.
Ктуна нельзя убить, он вечное составляющие мира, как и Йогга. Но вот их физические оболочки можно. Так что, Йогга мог реснуть ЧоГалла, чтобы тот повел парней на глупых смертных.
Он покажет, кто тут Босс.
Уничтожить нельзя, самого же умертвить можно, но лишь физическую оболочку.
Ну я и говорю. А вообще думаю, Близзы еще обновят Ктуна и его щупальца поимеют населения азерота в жопы, как тентакли маленьких школьниц
Инфа 100%
Круто было бы, если бы они вновь Медива приплели.

Ссыль на русскую версию, да.
Чот херня с этими островами Эхо. Маловаты они - это раз; во-вторых, кагбэ по лору Залазейну голову отпилили уже давным-давно (в квесте троллеДК товарищ красочно расписывает штурм Эхо). С другой стороны, запилили же нам Ониксию во второй раз...
Онискию обновили, но сложноть. А так она давно мертва.
Это может быть и не острова Эхо. Это может быть и селении троллей в Фераласе, и еще что-то. В любом случаи, город у троллей будет. Но не в пре-эвенте, в нем они только отвоюют землю, а зам город, видимо, будет уже в клизме.
Обновили, и по лору парадокс возник. Кек.
ВРЕМЕННОЙ!1)
Насколько я помню, Близзы божились, что Ониксию обновили, только по механу. Мол шаг к Клизме, а по лору все осталось как прежде лЛ
Хм... С Ониксии берётся голова, которая начинает квест, да и называется он как-то по-странному "Странное стечение обстоятельств".
А если ВСЕ острова Эхо превратить в город по типу Венеции? Тогда, ИМХО, будет шикарная и оригинальная столица, да.
Они маловаты для этого, ещё раз говорю. Сравни с Тандер Блаффом - там тоже, можно сказать, на трёх островах город, однако каждый из них больше, чем самый большой остров Эхо (ну, или примерно таких же размеров).
Их размер могут и перепилить. ДА и дома на сваях, деревьях, весящих между ними и прочее никто не отменял. Да и сам Сен'джин может стать частью города. Вруби фантазию, друже ,и представь, какую няландию можно забабахать из фел-пушки, контузив местных, правда, из Эхо.
В Клизме, острова Эхо могут и расширить и увеличь. Норм
Нос норм?
*зануда* Не норм, строить-то начинать придется на более узких островах. But in the dark grimness of far future there is no logic...
In 41 millenium, ther is only...WAR
Gnomecoming King - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
Gnomecoming Queen - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
Apparently, parts of the pre-Cataclysm event have been deployed in this patch and retaking Gnomeregan will be part of it!
...
Ну, Термаплагга уже "давным-давно" завалили "в Лоре". Алые гномы на танках и страусах из титановой стали при поддержке мехагномов с bazaar-ами ворвутся в коридоры Гномрегана, сея добро и созидание среди остатков своих зеленых родственников. Вновь предстоят нам времена сражений! blahblahblah!

Новая информация.
Cataclysm Prologue - Gnomeregan and the Echo Isles
Patch 3.3.3 introduced a lot of data for the prologue, or at least a part of it. If you checked the site when the patch was first release you already know that players will be able to recapture Gnomeregan (Alliance) and the Echo Isles (Horde).
Achievements and Overcloaks
This is where it all started, the new achievements were discovered instantly on the Item Database Latest Additions.
Gnomecoming King - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
Gnomecoming Queen - You assisted High Tinker Mekkatorque and the Gnomeregan Exiles in the recapture of Gnomeregan's surface.
There isn't any Horde achievement for the moment and they will probably be added to the game in a later PTR build, after digging a little more in the game files it also looks like players will be rewarded with cloaks at some point. However, it looks like Blizzard introduced an Overcloak mechanism to change the appearance of your clock without having to unequip your regular super-epic cloak.
Gnomeregan Overcloak - Right Click to don a cosmetic cloak. Will cover the appearance but not the effect of any existing cloak.
Orgrimmar Overcloak - Right Click to don a cosmetic cloak. Will cover the appearance but not the effect of any existing cloak.
More spells should be introduced later according to the models I found in the game files. (Personal message to Blizzard: Guild Tabards overcloaks, please!)
Flight Paths
More flight paths have been added to the game. First, you have to understand that everytime you use a vehicle following an automated path, most of the coordinates it uses are stored in your client and aren't received from the server. Knowing that, we can reproduce the paths on a world map (yes, we can do that) and check where the various Cataclysm missions will bring us.
CC Prologue - GT - Quest - Vent Horizon - Start (#392)
CC Prologue - GT - Quest - Vent Horizon - End (#393)
CC Prologue - GT - Battle Flight - Start (#394)
CC Prologue - GT - Battle Flight - End (#395)
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue Spy Frog Start (#404)

Durotar - ET - CC Prologue Troll Taxi Bat Start (#438)
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue Troll Recruit End (#439)
Durotar - ET - CC Prologue - Troll Battle End (#440)
Quest Lines
A lot of quests have been added to the game for this event. Keep in mind that this is only a small part of the entire event but it will give you a good idea of how players will recapture Gnomeregan and the Echoes Isles.
There is also a third questline involving the Twilight's Cult, the end of the world is near and they really want you to know about it!
Alliance - Recapturing Gnomeregan
Quest - A Few Good GnomesR
Objective - Recruit Gnome Citizens from Tinker Town using the Motivate-a-Tron and lead them to Captain Tread Sparknozzle at Steelgrill's Depot.
Description
Our engineers have been working on getting our battle machines ready for our assault on Gnomeregan, but we're out of pilots! We've developed a device called the Motivate-a-Tron, which prevents distraction from other sources and gives the gnome the courage to enlist. After motivating a few Gnome Citizens, lead them out to Captain Tread Sparknozzle out at Steelgrill's Depot, just south of Ironforge. Oh, and be careful. The device is still a little experimental.
Quest - Basic Orders
Objective - Follow Drill Sergeant Steamcrank's cues and then report back to Captain Tread Sparknozzle.
Description
Hey! You look like you could give us a hand! If you're willing to help our cause, we have to get you through training. Gnome training is brutal and rigorous, so I hope you're ready. Head over to Drill Sergeant Steamcrank and he'll walk you through what you need to know. Make sure you follow his orders when he gives them, or else you'll never make it I'm warning you though, it's tough over there. Come back to see me, if you make it.
Quest - Vent Horizon
Objective - Use Pilot Muzzlesprock's flying machine to toss Radiageigatrons at the vents surrounding Gnomeregan.

High Tinker Mekkatorque asked me to write a speech that he could give before the battle starts, but I can't tell which draft is good and which ones just stink. Could you try some of them out on some of the local gnome residents? This device creates an image of Mekkatorque saying a few lines from each of my speech drafts. Let me know which one works, okay?
Quest - Words for Delivery! It has everything to be a great battle starter: It's inspirational, has eloquent language and speaks directly to gnomes. Never has a finer speech been written! Turn this in to Captain Tread Sparknozzle and get some transportation to High Tinker Mekkatorque!
Objective - Give the speech to Captain Tread Sparknozzle at Steelgrill Depot.

Well, I've upgraded this tank with an ejection seat. Try it out for me, will ya?
Quest - One Step Forward...
Objective - Test the the Scuttling Mechano-Tank's maneuverability.

Мне плохо от этих тонн текста. Переведи %)
Ну самые вкусные новости, что у троллей будут острова эхо. Множество квестов, новые флай пути и скорее всего новые флаймаунты.
+ Близзард представит игровую механику Overcloak, позволяющую изменять вид накидки персонажа без изменения ее параметров или необходимости ее смены .
Вот это очень круто)
Лучше бы для всего шмота сделали так. Как ЛОТРО. Проблем с РПшмотом больше бы небыло.
П.С. Требую перевод квестов, мон.
Покидаю тебе в пмы
А что в ЛОТРО? Не минусуйте, просто интересно.

Description
Harbingers of doom are nothing new on the streets of Orgrimmar, but I'm worried about this latest batch. These people are organized and they've attracted a lot of attention in the Drag, where they seem to congregate. I've thought about rounding them up or otherwise disrupting their activities, but that will just drive them underground. We need to find out more about them. Would you go to the Drag, listen to what these doomsayers are spreading, and gather any literature you can find about their ideas?

We've got to do something to reduce interest in this doomsday cult, but I'm hesitant to take much action until we know more about who is behind this group. I've had my men place markers around heavily traveled areas in Orgrimmar. Take these posters and set them up where you see the markers. They won't discourage the most determined of seekers, but it's a first step in exposing this cult. The Horde has enough to deal with as it is, without people wilfully spreading lies too.
Quest - Infiltrating the Cult / Infiltrating the Cult. You're going to join them. Approach one of the Doomsayers in the Drag and tell them you wish to join their group. With any luck, they will give you instructions to introduce yourself to one of the group's leaders and tell you where the group is hiding. Don any clothing given to you by the doomsayer; you'll need it to gain entry to the group's hideout.
Objective - Speak to a Doomsayer Orgrimmar's Drag to join the cult, then put on your Recruit's Robe.
Description
The streets of Orgrimmar are wild with rumors about the cult's origins and practices. There's only one way to know the truth about this group,
Quest - Spreading the Word / Spreading the Word. Everyone here works to earn keep. For some, that means caring for the animals. Others are responsible for working on our construction projects. Still others work to spread our message among the people and I think that's a good place for you to start. Take this board. It bears a short message about our beliefs. While wearing the board, visit the eastern and western zeppelin towers outside Orgrimmar's gates, as well as the town square of Razor Hill, to the south.
Objective - While wearing your Doomsday Message, visit the East Zeppelin Tower, the West Zeppelin Tower, and the town square of Razor Hill.
Description
Welcome to the farm,
Quest - The Master's Plan / The Master's Plan, but there is more to us than daily chores and spreading the message. I'm sure you heard a little bit about it when you first joined. As you know, this world is ending and the unprepared will die painful deaths. We have been given a gift, an opportunity to become something greater and more powerful. Overseer Golbaz is will be preparing a ritual before the altar at the eastern end of the farm. Wait there for him, and learn more of your new brothers and sisters.
Objective - Learn more about the cult's plans at the altar in the eastern part of the Jaggedswine Farm.
Description
You're fitting in well here,
Quest - The Doomsday Plan / The Doomsday Plan, you'll be safely away before that happens. Do not do anything that would draw attention to yourself.
Objective - Take the Elemental Devices to Blood Guard Torek in Orgrimmar's Valley of Strength.
Description
The first batch of elemental devices are ready. Your task will be to conceal them inside the city of Orgrimmar. The devices will unleash their fire elementals at the proper time. Don't worry,
Quest - Thwarting Twilight's Hammer / Thwarting Twilight's Hammer
Objective - Break Elemental Devices to release their elementals. You must defeat 5 Raging Fire Elementals.
Description
You can't have been the only person sent into Orgrimmar to deploy those devices containing fire elementals. We have to find and disable the rest of the devices before set their captive elementals free and burn down the city. Are you familiar enough with the devices to destroy them? You need to break them open before the fire elementals inside have had time to reach full strength. They should be easy to defeat if you open the devices early. The cultists have probably put them all over the city.
Quest - Warn King Wrynn / Warn the Warchief, and without shedding the blood of our own people. Our enemy will not rest for long. I cannot imagine that Cho'Gall will accept defeat so easily. You must take word to Thrall. Go to the Valley of Wisdom and speak to him in Grommash Hold. Tell the warchief that our enemies have shown themselves and we must be prepared for their return.
Objective - Speak with Thrall at Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar's Valley of Wisdom.

Патч 3.3.5.
Ruby Sanctum - Info Compilation / Preview [Spoiler]
Most of the Ruby Sanctum have been pushed in this patch and it looks like I have enough data in my hands for a small preview. As usual keep in mind that:
This is only a preview based on game files, I could be wrong on a few things.
Ruby Sanctum isn't even scheduled for release for Patch 3.3.3, it will be added with Patch 3.3.5 and a LOT of things can change in so much time.
As we prepare for the public testing phase of minor content patch 3.3.3, some players might come across information regarding upcoming content that isn't yet available. To avoid any confusion, we'd like to tell you about an exciting new raid dungeon we are working on for content patch 3.3.5.
The Ruby Sanctum
A powerful war party of the Black Dragonflight, led by the fearsome Twilight dragon, Halion, have launched an assault upon the Ruby Sanctum beneath Wyrmrest Temple. By destroying the sanctum, the Black Dragonflight look to crush those that would stand in the way of their master’s reemergence into Azeroth and to ultimately shatter the Wyrmrest Accord – the sacred bond that unites the dragonflights.
The battle that is to come will surely deal a crippling blow to the Red Dragonflight, however, it is up to you to stop this unprecedented offensive and defend the Ruby Sanctum. First you must face the assault of Halion's servants, Saviana Ragefire, Baltharus the Warborn, and General Zarithrian, before squaring off against Halion the Twilight Destroyer, a new and deadly force in this realm.
The Ruby Sanctum will feature 10- and 25-player content, Heroic difficulties and all-new rewards! Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to its release.
Number 2. The lieutenants are sub-bosses which will each drop an Emblem of Frost. Halion is the main boss. While the activation of Heroic difficulty is different from the Obsidian Sanctum, the overall raid format for the Ruby Sanctum is very comparable.
You're likely to find some random pieces of armor on par with Lich King loot, similar to the items Onyxia dropped while Trial of the Crusader was the top-tier raid. You can also expect to see some more trinkets and things of that nature.
This raid will not only provide a bit of additional content to pair with the current content of patch 3.3, it will be the beginning of an advancement in the storyline for Cataclysm.
The plan is to have a normal mode and a heroic mode just like Icecrown Citadel, so far there is no plan for a Sartharion +1/+2/+3-like encounter.
Ruby Sanctum Loot
Apparently, these spells will be used on trinkets dropped in the instance. They are only the proc and you should keep in mind that they will have additional stats just like any other trinket.
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Melee Trinket - When you deal damage you have a chance to gain 1304 attack power for 15 sec. (Piercing Twilight)
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Heroic Melee Trinket - When you deal damage you have a chance to gain 1472 attack power for 15 sec. (Piercing Twilight)
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Nuker Trinket - Your damaging spells have a chance to grant 763 spell power for 15 sec. (Twilight Flames)
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Heroic Nuker Trinket - Your damaging spells have a chance to grant 861 spell power for 15 sec. (Twilight Flames)
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Tank Trinket - Melee attacks which reduce you below 35% health cause you to gain 4401 health for 10 sec. Cannot occur more than once every 30 sec. (Scaly Fortitude)
Item - Chamber of Aspects 25 Heroic Tank Trinket - Melee attacks which reduce you below 35% health cause you to gain 4968 health for 10 sec. Cannot occur more than once every 30 sec. (Scaly Fortitude)

Eyes of Twilight - Each time your direct healing spells heal a target you cause the target of your heal to heal themselves and friends within 10 yards for 402 each sec for 6 sec. (Twilight Renewal)

Blizzard posted about the the Cataclysm prologue event. According to the website link, it will happen after the release of Patch 3.9 on live servers.
High Tinker Gelbin Mekkatorque: The Liberation of Gnomeregan
Gelbin Mekkatorque is known as much for his technical brilliance as he is for his just leadership of the gnomes. In addition to being elected high tinker, the most prominent rank in gnomish society, Gelbin proved himself to be an inventor without equal by leading the construction of the Deeprun Tram, which links Stormwind and Ironforge. Yet all of the high tinker's achievements have been overshadowed by one catastrophic event that occurred under his rule: the fall of Gnomeregan.
Around the time of the Third War, an ancient menace known as the troggs surfaced in Gnomeregan from the depths of Azeroth. This barbaric race, thought to have been unintentionally released during the Uldaman excavation, crushed the gnomes' defenses and became entrenched in the lower sections of the city. Gelbin, for all his genius, was at a loss for a way to eradicate the savage invaders until his chief advisor, Mekgineer Sicco Thermaplugg, proposed that they inundate Gnomeregan with toxic radiation.
Confident in Thermaplugg's radical plan, Mekkatorque gave the order to irradiate the city. This bold move worked at first: toxic radiation spread throughout Gnomeregan and momentarily stopped the troggs' incursion. Soon, however, it was evident that the radiation was killing gnomes as well as troggs. In the end, nearly eighty percent of the gnomish race died, and many of those who survived were mutated into deranged leper gnomes. To add to the tragedy, the troggs then resumed their assault on the city.
Mekkatorque and the healthy survivors evacuated Gnomeregan and were taken in by the dwarves of neighboring Ironforge, but Thermaplugg disappeared. The high tinker later learned troubling news that his former advisor had seized control of the toxic gnomish city and instated himself as its twisted overlord. Much to Mekkatorque's shock, he also discovered that Thermaplugg had secretly desired the office of high tinker and might have been previously aware of or even complicit in the trogg invasion.
The immense loss of life at Gnomeregan weighed heavy on Mekkatorque's shoulders, and in his fury he ordered the death of Thermaplugg. A band of heroes took up the mission and returned with a tale of victory, but after analyzing the claim, Mekkatorque realized that the mechanized overlord defeated in the depths of the city was likely nothing more than a cleverly engineered facsimile of Thermaplugg.
Aware that defeating his nemesis would require a more robust approach, Mekkatorque labored over strategies to retake his city. His tireless brainstorming recently paid off with Operation: Gnomeregan, a brilliant multi-phased assault plan to liberate the gnomish capital and bring the real Thermaplugg to justice. With the operation set to begin, resourceful gnomes such as "Doc" Cogspin, Captain Tread Sparknozzle, and Drill Sergeant Steamcrank have been overseeing preparations and fine-tuning new technology that will be vital to the offensive.
Meanwhile, Mekkatorque has begun rounding up all able-bodied gnomes to join in the attack, and his call to arms has also been heard by other members of the Alliance. The gnomes' techno-savvy has been vital in past conflicts, and many Alliance heroes are likely to join the offensive to recapture the extraordinary inventions within the fallen city. For Mekkatorque, however, his plan goes beyond just reacquiring lost technology. The retaking of Gnomeregan will determine his legacy in history, either as the high tinker who lost the gnomes' beloved capital, or the one who reestablished it as the center of innovation on Azeroth.
Operation: Gnomeregan is now.
Vol'jin: The Glory of the Darkspears
Most of Azeroth's savage trolls are infamous for their extreme hatred of other races, but the Darkspear tribe and its leader, Vol'jin, are an exception. Over the years, the Darkspears have proven to be invaluable members of the Horde. Vol'jin in particular is known to offer strategic advice to Warchief Thrall on a regular basis, and the cunning troll played a role in retaking the Undercity after it was overthrown by the rebel forces of Varimathras and Putress.
Yet for all of the tribe's accomplishments, the Darkspears are still plagued by a tragic history of exile. Long ago they were driven from Stranglethorn Vale's mainland by the more powerful trolls of the Gurubashi empire and then settled on a remote island. The Darkspears later sought refuge with the Horde when their isle was destroyed by a mysterious sea witch, and Thrall granted the trolls new lands on the Echo Isles off the coast of Durotar. Aside from a brief exodus when Daelin Proudmoore's fleet arrived to hunt down orcs, the Darkspears enjoyed relative stability until one of their own, Zalazane, drove his brethren from their latest home.
The witch doctor Zalazane had been one of the tribe's leading mystical instructors when he was inexplicably driven to insanity by the powers under his control. Utilizing dark magic, he enslaved many of his fellow tribespeople and amassed an army of mindless Darkspear trolls. Fearing that all of his tribe would come under Zalazane's sway, Vol'jin ordered the remaining free Darkspears to abandon the Echo Isles.
Vol'jin's Darkspears settled in nearby Sen'jin Village, which they have since used as a staging point to attack Zalazane. Over the years, members of the Horde looking to test their worth have braved the Echo Isles to confront Zalazane, and many of them even returned victorious with his severed head. These victories, however, proved to be nothing more than an illusion created by the twisted witch doctor's dark magic. Days after these trophies were taken to Sen'jin Village, they reverted to their true forms: painted rocks and coconuts adorned with wooden tusks, or even the heads of Zalazane's enslaved trolls.
Despite these setbacks and his preoccupation with advising Thrall on Horde-related matters, Vol'jin has spent considerable time formulating a strategy to recapture the Echo Isles. Now he believes that the time to strike at Zalazane has come. As the Darkspear leader and his close allies Vanira and Champion Uru'zin await approval of their plan from the ancestral spirits, they have begun rounding up new troll recruits and staging reconnaissance missions to learn about Zalazane's minions.
Yet Vol'jin's trolls are short on forces, and the enslaved Darkspears on the Echo Isles outnumber them. The Darkspears are well-known for being among Azeroth's bravest combatants, however, and fortunately many non-trolls have expressed interest in assisting Vol'jin, perhaps hoping that restoring the Echo Isles will eventually bolster the Horde's strength.
Vol'jin is also aware of the strategic importance that a Darkspear homeland offers his allies, but he is motivated by more personal reasons. Zalazane's betrayal was an affront against Vol'jin's dream of a better life for his tribe, a destiny that his late father, Sen'jin, envisioned years ago. Only by retaking the Echo Isles will Vol'jin be able to honor his father and at long last secure a permanent homeland for the long-exiled Darkspear tribe.

Кстати, похоже на правду.
Острова Эхо.
Новый вид.
Официальный сайт дополнения World of Warcraft: Cataclysm пополнился статьей с рассказом о вводимой в аддоне стартовой (для персонажей 1-5 уровней) зоне "Острова Эха".
"Великими героями не рождаются, а становятся. Для тролля с островов Эха воинское служение начинается с обеспечения соплеменникам благополучной и бестревожной жизни. Вашим первым поручением станет защита ящеров с берега Кровавого Когтя и их детенышей от злых чар морской ведьмы. Еще вам придется сражаться с дикими зверями, которые уничтожают запасы продовольствия племени, и с нагами, облюбовавшими северный остров. Но на этих легких заданиях вы не засидитесь: очень скоро Вол’джин доверит вам важнейшую и крайне опасную секретную информацию относительно политических интриг, разъедающих Орду изнутри. В некоторые из них вовлечены и ваши ближайшие соплеменники…"
Эх, сказал бы я что по поводу альфа-тестеров думает г-н Кот, но да ладно.
