Dream's End Part III:

Warrior's Stand

PREFACE

The Emerald Dream is a primordial realm, parrallel to Azeroth, ruled by the green dragons and their queen, Ysera. Since the Ordering of Azeroth, the Dream has existed as a verdant, living duplicate of Azeroth, untouched by civilization and modern development. In it sprawls vast forests, verdant marshes, and deep seas, teeming with strange and miraculous creatures the likes of which have not been seen on Azeroth for millennia.

All the dragons fought alongside the mortal races - principally the night elves - during the War of the Ancients ten thousand years ago, and after the Legion's costly defeat, only three flights remained intact - the red, the bronze, and the green. The dragons made a pact with the night elves to defend Azeroth against the ever-present threat of demonic invasion. To protect the Well of Eternity, the three patrons of the dragonflights created Nordrassil - the World Tree. Through it, the night elves would not succumb to death and disease by old age, that they might better guard the Well from any interlopers.

However the night elves were forced to make sacrifices as part of this pact. In order to maintain the World Tree, the druids were to wander the Emerald Dream for millennia, protecting it alongside the green dragon defenders already within. Ten thousand years passed, and the druids were forced to awaken and defend the waking world from the return of the demonlord Archimonde and his host of demon minions. In the ensuing war, Nordrassil was sacrificed to destroy Archimonde. The druids now thrive alongside their waking brethren, but many often return to the Emerald Dream to commune with the green dragons and experience a mirror of Azeroth they cannot know in the waking world.
