Lore=



The Shrine of the Storm (or the Shrine of the Storms) is a monumental temple located on an island in eastern Stormsong Valley. It is the seat of House Stormsong and the stronghold of the Tidesages.

It is also a dungeon, while the Crucible of Storms raid is located underneath it.

According to Xal'atath, the area of the Precipice of Oblivion, where Storm's End and the Shrine of Shadows is found, has had countless names over the ages and echoes with ancient power.

Notes and trivia

 * The Shrine looks similar to the original concept for the Dragon Isles.
 * Trying to enter the uninstanced version of the Shrine causes you to be given the debuff Choking Fog and be teleported out to one of two locations:
 * The Lost Estate, in front of the statue that resembles Daelin Proudmoore (uses the same asset as in Boralus), if you are near Storm's End or the Shrine of Shadows.
 * Behind the statue of Lord Stormsong near the instance entrance, if you are near Tidewater Sanctum or the Fonts of Cleansing.

Speculation
Given the night elf heritage found within Kul Tiras and how thousands of years ago, ten magisters were exiled from Highborne society (and presumably Suramar) for seeking power in the void and eventually found Kosumoth the Hungering, a servant of N'Zoth, just northwest of the islands of Kul Tiras, and below the shrine is an extension of N'Zoth's body, and the presence of a moonwell in Sagehold that holds the Rod of Tides it is possible that other Highborne exiles who dabbled in the void prior to Azshara's bargain with N'Zoth settled somewhere to conduct Void rituals.
