Expedition and Worgen

Eastern Kingdoms, Stormwind Harbor.

A massive military fleet was steadily leaving port and sailing toward the vast Endless Sea. A full-strength main Alliance legion filled its ships, bound for the Pandaria Continent to support the Shaohao Dynasty in its war against the Mantid.
