Lord Daval Prestor, who had once been a sensation in the Alliance of Lordaeron, the strongest contender for the throne of the Kingdom of Alterac, and a northern minor noble who had been popular with King Terenas and the leaders of other nations after the Second War, wielding considerable influence over Alliance decisions and coming close to becoming King of Alterac, had returned!
Yes.
Just as he had once suddenly disappeared without a word for many years, this time he had once again appeared at a critical moment in the storm-tossed city of Lordaeron. Introduced by Calia Menethil, the acting Queen of Lordaeron, he had reentered the city's upper social circles and once more spread his once-legendary influence throughout the kingdom of Lordaeron and the Alliance.
Although Lordaeron's generals and some of the Archmages from Dalaran had regarded Lord Prestor's identity with suspicion and caution, and had even listed a series of "suspicious" or "speculative" pieces of so-called evidence...
Once Lord Prestor had shown no hesitation in displaying his power, charging alongside hundreds of powerful followers to launch a risky assault against the Scourge's ranks with magic and blades, and winning a small victory, the suspicions were soon swept aside. They had also learned the vital intelligence that the Scourge's main elite forces had withdrawn at some unknown point and were no longer near Brill. After that, no one in Lordaeron could continue to doubt Prestor's abilities or identity.

Unless anyone uncovered particularly obvious suspicions or solid evidence that he posed a serious threat to Lordaeron, no one would dare challenge a man as powerful as Lord Prestor—especially now
