Alterac Mountains
From CotH-Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to searchThese mountains are the former homeland of the Kingdom of Alterac, one of the seven human kingdoms that were part of the Alliance of Lordaeron. After Alterac betrayed the Alliance during the second war, the kingdom was decimated. The city of Dalaran was also located here prior to its transportation to the Crystalsong Forest, in Northrend.
