After the death of Mogor, chieftain of the Dragonmaw Clan, the thirteen Red Whelp resting on the cliff broke free of their tethers, biting to death all the Red Dragon riders who had enslaved them, and flew away into the distance.
The reins binding the Red Whelp were originally very strong, but Nazgrim secretly bribed the keeper who cared for the Red Dragon to tamper with the reins in order to weaken the Dragonmaw Clan.
Thrall escaped, Warchief Garrosh emerged victorious, returning to Orgrimmar.
Orgrimmar was practically a ghost town, but that didn't matter. The Caverns of Time sent over 100,000 Orcs at once, filling up the empty houses.
Orgrimmar quickly became bustling with people, just like any other day.
No one remembers that this city was ever occupied by the Twilight's Hammer. Most of those involved are dead, and the few who know the truth have wisely kept quiet.
Orgrimmar returned to normal, and the new residents had no idea what a tragedy had taken place in their homes or the stories behind the Tough Jerky they ate.
But some people have to pay the price for what they've done.
Nazgrim led 20,000 new recruits from the Caverns of Time in a massive assault on Blood Gorge in Twilight Highlands, heading straight for the Dragonmaw Clan's stronghold. Sylvanas also dispatched a large Undead army to assist them.
Caught between the Orgrimmar Orcs and the Forsaken, the Dragonmaw Clan lost its most relied-upon Red Whelp and was no match for the Allied forces.
After several crushing defeats, the Dragonmaw Clan suffered more than half its casualties and was unable to fight any longer, so it had no choice but to surrender.
Garrosh's order was to annihilate the Dragonmaw Clan, but Nazgrim had more to consider. He was worried that the Forsaken would seize Dragonmaw Clan's lands and take the opportunity to expand their territory.
In response, Nazgrim wrote a long letter and sent it to Garrosh, filled with his heartfelt words.
Garrosh considered it for a long time and finally agreed with Nazgrim's opinion.
With the support of the Warchief, Nazgrim launched a systematic massacre of the Dragonmaw Clan, killing all the men and sparing no children, leaving only the women alive.
Nazgrim left behind 10,000 soldiers, settled in Blood Gorge in the name of the Dragonmaw Clan, married women from the Dragonmaw Clan, and declared himself the master of this land.
Although all the men of the Dragonmaw Clan are dead, the Clans's name has survived, and it remains one of the Orcs Clans —a testament to the mercy of Warchief Garrosh.
Garrosh had already made preparations for the selection of the Dragonmaw Clan chieftain, appointing the female Orcs Zaela as the Dragonmaw Clan.
Zaela has no relation to the Dragonmaw Clan; she comes from the Warsong Clan. Because of her beauty, athletic build, and small yet sharp fangs, she won the favor of Garrosh.
Zaela is a fairly capable individual, but he has no experience in leading troops in battle, let alone knowing how to command a Clans.
Garrosh's appointment of his woman as chieftain of the Dragonmaw Clan greatly displeased Nazgrim, and rumors spread to Orgrimmar, reaching Garrosh's ears.
On this day, Orgrimmar was filled with jubilation as Garrosh held a grand banquet for his generals to celebrate the Dragonmaw Clan joining the Horde family.
Everyone was quite drunk when Garrosh suddenly noticed that Nazgrim's seat was empty. He frowned slightly and asked Rokhan beside him without making a sound.
Why is General Nazgrim not here?
Rokhan had a bad feeling. His duty was to invite the generals to the banquet, Rokhan assumed that Nazgrim was busy with military affairs and not on the invitation list, so he did not send out invitations.
Who would have thought the Warchief meant this? Rokhan, deeply familiar with Orcs rules, dared not admit his mistake. His eyes darted around, and he whispered:
"I've heard that the Dark Lady Sylvanas is making moves that could harm Blood Gorge. The Grand General is worried about unforeseen circumstances and has therefore declined the invitation."
Bang!
Garrosh smashed the cup in his hand and said sarcastically:
"It seems that it is General Nazgrim is eager to make a move."
Everyone at the banquet was stunned; the singing, dancing, and music stopped simultaneously, and all was silent.
Those present were all intelligent people, and they quickly deduced that Garrosh was dissatisfied with Nazgrim and wanted to kill him, but he just needed an excuse.
Saurfang the Great, seated at the head of the table, had a sudden thought. He took out a Booklet from his robes and respectfully handed it to Garrosh.
Garrosh opened the Booklet, and after reading only the first few pages, the muscles on his face trembled uncontrollably, and his eyes flashed with a murderous glint. He barely managed to suppress his rage.
This Booklet records Nazgrim's words and actions in Twilight Highlands. In an attempt to win over Mogor, Nazgrim spoke ill of Garrosh, but little did he know that the walls had been overheard and everything was recorded in detail.
The king of ambushes in Azeroth, his stealth skills are also unparalleled in the Horde.
Garrosh gradually calmed down, his expression softened, and instead of being angry, he smiled:
"Look at these records, everyone. Nazgrim actually said that I rose to the position of Warchief by relying on women, and that my cunning and schemes are far inferior to Thrall's. How amusing."
Garrosh deliberately circulated the Booklet among the generals. After reading it, most remained silent, except for Goral, who was close to Nazgrim, who spoke up:
"Warchief, these words, though disrespectful, were intended to win over Mogor and did not reflect the General's true feelings. On behalf of General Nazgrim, I apologize to the Warchief."
Upon seeing the expressions on his generals' faces, Garrosh immediately understood the situation, laughed heartily, and said nonchalantly:
"How could I be such a petty person? General Nazgrim has made great contributions. The Booklet is not a mistake by the general, but rather a record of his merits. Every word in it is Nazgrim's expression of loyalty to the Horde."
Goral secretly breathed a sigh of relief and sincerely praised, "The Warchief has a broad mind, capable of encompassing the Great Sea. The Warchief is truly blessed Horde have such Azeroth."
Garrosh nodded in satisfaction, then a look of worry appeared on his face:
"I am very worried that the disrespectful words in the Booklet might be used to sow discord between me and the General, and to cause rumors. Do any of you have any good suggestions?"
Saurfang the Great saw through Garrosh's thoughts, his eyes darting around, and he offered his advice:
"The best way to stop rumors is to nip them in the bud. Why don't we invite the General back to explain the whole story and clear up the misunderstanding? That way, the rumors won't start anymore."
Garrosh slammed his fist on the table and said:
"That's exactly right, Malkorok. You shall immediately proceed to Blood Gorge in Twilight Highlands to replace General Nazgrim, and in my name, request that the general return to report for duty."
A strange light flickered in the eyes of the seemingly simple-minded Malkorok, and he said in a deep voice:
"Yes, Warchief, I will head to Twilight Highlands immediately."
Twilight Highlands, Blood Gorge.
After handing over the formalities to Nazgrim, Malkorok said sarcastically, "General, although you destroyed Malkorok Dragonmaw Clan, the chieftainship belongs to Zaela. She is the Warchief's woman. I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible."
Nazgrim replied coldly, "I have never had such a thought."
Malkorok waved his hand, dismissing the crowd, and said in a low voice, "Nazgrim, do you know that disaster is imminent?"
