User:GoldenYak/Orrery of C'Thun

The inner sanctum of C'Thun, the Old God.

Background
Deep within the citadel is a vast and terrible device, a machine designed and built in accordance with the unfathomable edicts of C'Thun. Black, rune-etched gears of all sizes, from tiny wheels to cogs with teeth as great as buildings fill the interior of the citadel, like a nightmare landscape of clockwork. This enormous machine contains, at its core, what seems to be a representation of Azeroth and its stellar system, a dark twin to the Celestial Planetarium in Ulduar.

Yet it maps more than just the turning of worlds and stars. Strange currents flow about the spheres of the machine, twisting and bending in accordance with the placement of the device's clockwork. This great construct is the Orrery of C'Thun, built to track the flow of history itself, mapping the ever-changing timeways of Azeroth. For the purpose of this machine is to undo the flow of time, and change the history of the world, past, present, and future.

Dungeon Journal
Long before the Titans came, the Old God C'Thun directed his followers to construct the horrific Orrery within the heart of his dark citadel. Built of mechanisms that would drive mortals to murder and insanity, the Orrery maps the ebb and flow of time itself. C'Thun peered across the timeways and saw all that would come to pass, and as these visions came to him, he concocted a terrible plan.

As the forces of Twilight rise to threaten the world again, as the kingdom of the nerubians begins its new rise to greatness, as the aqir watch from beyond the world for their time to strike... within the heart of the Nameless Citadel, the Old God C'Thun's ancient design is about to unfold.
