The maddening whipers increases.

The Kirin Tor, goblins and gnomes, in a desperate plan, begin to build a ship to take a small army to the White Lady.

Uldram, Inner City (Elunite Starting Zone)
After being unconscious for so long, you finally are woken up by a male voice (the same of the cinematic), that tells you taht you have a great detiny ahead of you, but you must first save your people.

When you exit the capsule wher you have been sleeping, you see others elunites waking up alongside you and some who seems tha been awake for a longer time.

You are approached by a woman, she calls herself Adramesh, she seems interested in you and say that you are different to the others, she also asks you also woke with the voice of Arlatop. She has been sent by him to make sure that this group dont't have prombles to wake up. A big noise it's heard and you are indicated to take a weapon. Your group are attacked by Shadow creatures, similar in appearance with the Sha.

After helping some of the freshly awakened elunites, you finally meet with Arlatop, he receives you warmly, like an old friend, he looks like an elunite, though he isn't corrupted at all. He tell you that he isn't part of your race and has taken this form to walk among your. He says that he is a messenger from powers beyond this world and has been sent to help your people and stop the events forthcoming.

Alongside Arlotep you met, Enkid, another elunite awoken by Arlotep. Talking with him, he tells you that he don't trust Arlotep and neither should you and that when the menace of the Shadow Creatures is ended, you should seal Uldram, like it was before.

Arlotep sends you, Adramesh and Enkid to do different labours to stop the invasion. After finishing your mission you go to help Adramesh and Enkid. Adramesh doesn't trust Arlotep completely, but at the moment he hasn't done anything that wrong and if what he tells is truth, that there are worse thing to come, is better to listen to him, for now. Enkid thinks that before trying to help the outside world, the elunites should discover their purpose and study Uldram.

Finally the four of you confront the root of the corruption affecting Uldram, but after defeating it, Arlatop says that this can't be compared to what is currenty affecting their home. He tells you that with his power, he can send a small number of elunites to Azeroth, to warn the inhabitants of the world and seek help. Enkid refuses to do this at first, but seeing that both you and Adramesh accept the offer, he accepts too. Arlatop makes another offer, he says that your people are fighting themselves, between two natures and says taht you should accept one, purity of body or accept the gift of the flesh. The second option will make the journey to Azeroth easier, so he recommends that those who make it, do that. Adramesh accepts the gift, thinking that it will be the best. This enrages Enkid, saying that if the elunites that accepted the gift returns to Uldram, he will not let them put a single foot inside the city.

You are forced to make a choice. Upon making it, you are sent to Azeroth, alongside Adramesh. Whe you open your eyes, you see numerous champions, waiting.
