“ If we some day return to these woods and complete what was begun here today, we shall name it the Allerian Stronghold. It is fitting - the orcs destroyed much of Quel'Thalas, and so in return we will claim this, the one green region left upon this forsaken world. And if not, these posts will stand as a reminder that the Alliance entered this forest and claimed it as their own.”

— Lieutenant Talthressar^[1]

Allerian Stronghold is an Alliance hold in Terokkar Forest. It is named after Alleria Windrunner, although she does not currently reside here. The base has a large number of high elves and features some of the only high elven buildings in-game. An elven mage tower, a town hall and a blacksmith are in the stronghold.

History

During the Alliance's expedition into Draenor, Danath Trollbane lead the company that hunted the shaman Ner'zhul. Once in Terokkar Forest, they were eventually exhausted and tired by the constant travel, and they set up a camp for a night of rest. Talthressar and Herrick both agreed to honor the sacrifices of the Wildhammer clan and designate the location of what would later be the Allerian Stronghold, becoming its founders by doing so. Talthressar said that it would stand as a symbol of the alliance between elves, men and dwarves.^[2]

Trivia

By drinking alcoholic beverages the player can see pink elekks in at least six locations around the stronghold. This is a reference to the Disney movie Dumbo, where in the main character accidentally gets drunk & hallucinates about Pink Elephants.
- Completing the quest [15-30] The Final Code, provides a barrel of [Brightsong Wine]. Besides this, Allerian Stronghold seems dried out of alcohol, so one may have to look elsewhere for some beverages.
