This graveyard is located near the Highlands Mill in western Arathi Highlands.[15.2, 47.8] Here lie the Forsaken members of the Desolate Council that were killed during the Gathering. They were buried by their families and friends a few days after the tragic event with the help of stone carvers and gravediggers brought by King Anduin from Stormwind.[1][2]

- Originally, Lost Honor was going to take place at this cemetery.[3]

Speculation

This article or section includes speculation, observations or opinions possibly supported by lore or by Blizzard officials. It should not be taken as representing official lore.

Since the graveyard is located between Thoradin's Wall and Stromgarde Keep, this might also be the Arathi Highlands Field in which the Gathering took place, or at least be near it.
