Crucible (Oribos)



The Crucible, also known as the Arbiter's Chamber, is the very peak of Oribos, where the Arbiter herself judges the endless stream of souls. Surrounding this sacred place are gateways to the infinite realms of the Shadowlands. When each soul was judged by the Arbiter, a gateway would be opened to that soul's appropriate afterlife.

Tales have it that long ago, all of the Eternal Ones gathered in this chamber. Following Denathrius' betrayal, the remaining covenant leaders met here once again to discuss their next course of action. They did the same after Anduin Wrynn's attack on the Archon.

Players do not generally have access to this area and only visit it during specific quests: Audience with the Arbiter at the beginning of the Shadowlands campaign, The Looming Dark at the end of the level-up chapters, and A Gathering of Covenants at the beginning of the Chains of Domination campaign.
