Arc 33The Burning Crusade Ends
Illidan, the Eredar, and their allies reclaimed Argus and confronted the Legion as Diakum and Argus faced Sargeras. With Sargeras defeated and the Burning Crusade ending, Argus began its rebirth while the survivors faced the costs of victory.
- Illidan destroyed Nathraxas Castle’s Fel Heart, freed the Penitents from demonic occupation, and joined them with the arriving Eredar and Lightforged to reclaim their homeland.
- Velen summoned the Eredar dead with Frostmourne, and the Restoration Army fought through the Antoran Wastes as Kil’jaeden rallied demons for a last stand at Antorus.
- Argus Lord and the allied forces defeated Khaz’goroth and Aggramar, while Brox gave his life and Little Hellscream granted him a warrior’s death.
- The queen trio and Iridikron captured Aman’Thul and sealed him away after he admitted he had tried to reshape Azeroth according to his blueprint.
- Diakum and Argus confronted Sargeras, and Diakum’s allies and the returning Aggramar helped shatter Sargeras’s final attack and bring him down.
- Diakum dragged Sargeras from the battlefield’s rift, melted his body, and sent his soul toward the Chief Architect as the demons lost their leader.
- Illidan accepted Argus Lord’s fel authority and vowed to lead the Illidari’s Demon-Slaying Crusade, while Argus prepared to be reborn.
- The Everything Unification Field began formatting Argus, and Velen offered Kil’jaeden a chance to come home, but Kil’jaeden asked for final judgment.
