Robbie joined Vanessa VanCleef’s Defias Brotherhood in Draenor and investigated plots involving the Dark Star, Med’an, and the Draenei. After Medivh devastated Lunarfall, Robbie traveled into the past with Arthas to investigate the Guardian’s history, while a mysterious power disrupted Medivh’s plans.
Arthas and Robbie uncovered the power of the runes as Lordaeron fell, then Arthas forged Frostmourne and built the Scourge. The Scourge advanced through Quel’Thalas toward Silvermoon City, where Robbie warned Sylvanas that Medivh might control the defenses.
Robbie and his allies fought to prevent the Legion’s designs, expose the Dark Star, and defend Karabor, while schemes across Draenor and Azeroth reshaped the Horde. After Vol’jin killed Thrall and rejected Gul’dan’s alliance, Robbie and Kel'Thuzad investigated the power behind him and considered another approach.
Robbie and his allies uncovered Varian’s schemes, tried to shape the Alliance-Horde conflict, and searched for the Holy Book as rival factions converged on Karazhan. The volume left the siege underway, with Thrall in the Death Realm and Robbie and Vanessa confronting an illusion of Aegwynn.
Cairne’s campaign destroyed Orgrimmar as Sylvanas seized new forces and sought a way to bring the Iron Horde into Azeroth. In the past, Robbie intervened in Illidan’s life and uncovered N'Zoth beneath the Well of Eternity, then found Prince Farondis desperate after Malfurion coerced him into acting against the Well.
Robbie and his allies faced Elune’s assault and the destruction of Azeroth, then contended with Aman'Thul’s schemes to seize power across the world. The volume left Khadgar coerced into recruiting Sylvanas and the Iron Horde for an assault on the Tomb of Sargeras.
Robbie and the Orcs became entangled in battles involving the Burning Legion, the Scourge, Trolls, and Troggs as rival leaders pursued power and survival. The stretch ended with Elune’s envoy winning Vol'jin and Doras’s pledges after Tyrande rejected their warning about the Troggs.
Robbie and the factions of Azeroth maneuvered through betrayals and shifting alliances as the Burning Legion attacked Mount Hyjal. Archimonde died, Illidan raised Dalaran as a floating fortress, and his assault on the Frozen Throne opened a fissure beneath the aetrite ore hub.
Thrall and Jaina fought over Kul Tiras and the Horde, while Robbie and Murozond steered events toward Northrend and Arthas’s plans. Jaina pursued Varian’s restoration and Stormwind’s throne, but Kites claimed the crown through a fabricated dragon-slaying, as Agna began her mission to win him over.
Kites’s campaign in Northrend collapsed as the Horde, the Scourge, and the Loa pursued their own plans, while Elune resurrected Tirion and gave Kites a new life as Varian. Thrall consumed the Loa, killed Sif, and fled to Dalaran, where Loken threatened Rhonin’s children.
The Horde, Alliance, Argent Crusade, and Scourge were repeatedly manipulated into devastating battles as Robbie uncovered the forces behind the conflict. After Taelan fell and Thrall’s Icecrown campaign collapsed, multiplying Kobolds became a threat to all Azeroth, and the story ended with the Kobolds sealed away while Varian warned they could spread worldwide within three months.
Thrall’s pursuit of power scattered his soul and drew Jaina, Varian, and others into sacrifices, betrayals, and battles across Azeroth. Wrathion’s schemes then brought the factions to Pandaria, where Ye Wen became the Sha of Anger and the Sha of Madness empowered the Shado-Pan against the Orc invasion.
Thrall and his allies struggled through the Horde’s wars in Pandaria, the fall of the Beast Emperor, and Thrall’s efforts to gather forces and weapons for the Hour of Twilight. The volume left them in the unfinished capital of the ancient Zandalar Great Empire.
Thrall and Garrosh fought over the power to shape Azeroth, as Zandalar fell to Hakkar, Uldum became a battleground, and Theramore was destroyed. Garrosh escaped Pandaria with the Heart of Darkness and planned to attack Exodar, while Thrall sought new allies and Velen threatened Anduin.
Garrosh’s escape led to the creation of the Iron Horde and drew Azeroth’s factions into Draenor’s conflicts. Mar'gok seized control of Draenor, while Velen conspired with the entity in Cho'gall’s body and Aman'Thul approached Antonidas.
Jaina and Aman'Thul spread the Holy Light through wars, enslavement, and the Flesh-Eternal, while Velen and others tried to resist its advance. The conflict shifted to the Vale and Theramore, and Rhonin ended the stretch captured by Orcs and facing Nekros Skullcrusher’s test.
Rhonin and the Dragon Aspects faced the Ancient Evil and Deathwing as Robbie and Krasus uncovered Twilight corruption, while the search for Thrall exposed a rewritten past and Jaina pursued Arthas. Thrall rose through violence and manipulation, and the volume left the Horde’s alliances shifting as Voren'thal praised him and Rommath sought his help for the Blood Elves.
Thrall and his allies used sacrifice and betrayal to advance their campaign in Outland, but Vashj captured him and forced him to search for the Node Key. The story left Thrall seeking the Moon Goddess's shard while Vandel followed a map to a strange world and learned of the Titans from Mr. Bigglesworth.
The Horde’s campaigns, coups, and plagues devastated Orcs, Kobolds, Tauren, and Night Elves as rival leaders fought to rule Azeroth. Rend Blackhand and Velen entered a parallel world, where Velen persuaded Aedelas Blackmoore to raise infant Thrall as a future king and savior.
No recap yet. A volume gets one once it has 100 chapters.
