Elders' Square



Elders' Square is located inside Stratholme's Scourge side, just past the instance portal of the Service Entrance. It leads to the Gauntlet north through a gate, and originally, going through this gate would activate the 45-minute timer to save Ysida Harmon.

Another closed gate led west to Festival Lane, the only thoroughfare between the two halves of Stratholme. This passage is where Atiesh was summoned. In the middle of Elders' Square lies the Alonsus Chapel, its hallowed ground keeping the swarms of Scourge at bay.

During the Burning Legion's third invasion, though the city was still in control of the Scourge, the square was controlled by the Knights of the Silver Hand.
