On the morning Prince Arthas came home, a city guard captain told his lieutenant that their job was to help people, not push them aside. Days later the captain was dead, and soon the lieutenant was too. He woke up in the Undercity with no memory, and became the first of the Forsaken to call on the Light. This episode follows Garek Bandarion through the whole of Warcraft III Reforged: Forsaken Kingdom, mission by mission.

Along the way there is a death knight who prays the Light will destroy him, a dark ranger who remembers everything, an undead warrior who calls his undeath a malady, a princess raised by the Light itself, and an old archbishop whom the Light burns every time he prays, and who prays anyway.

On the first morning of the new age, a new character wakes in Northshire Abbey or the Valley of Trials and walks into a quarrel twenty-five years old, with roots ten thousand years older. This episode tells all of it in current canon, from the first war under the world to the eve of the gates opening, and stops there: no later expansions, no spoilers for the world you are about to play.

Along the way there is a titan who killed a newborn world to save the others, a queen who opened a door, a druid who broke the Well of Eternity, a prince who knelt before his father's throne, a city guard captain who stayed behind in the sewers, and the first Forsaken paladin. And at the end, the last people to arrive: the Skyborne, whose story begins in a city we pass in the first hour.

• The titans, Sargeras and the Old Gods

• The War of the Ancients and the Sundering

This Hallow's End edition also walks the festival itself. You come in from the cold to the inn at Brill with a bucket of sweets by the hearth, and before the night is over you have spent your treats on masks, wands and a broom that flies, thrown your burdens at the wickerman, fought the fires with a bucket in Goldshire, and stood at the pumpkin shrine behind the Scarlet Monastery as the rider rose.

Before he was a headless rider throwing flaming pumpkins at Goldshire, Thomas Thomson was a knight of the Silver Hand with a wife, two children and a pumpkin farm in Tirisfal Glades. He sent his family to safety across the sea, joined the Scarlet Crusade, and learned from a mentor who was secretly a dreadlord that suspicion was holy. Then, purging a village of refugees, he rode down three fleeing figures and recognised them too late. This is his whole story, told from his side, from the old Wickerman Festival of Lordaeron to the night his wife's ghost came back to save him.

This episode covers the full arc: Hallow's End in old Lordaeron, the Thomson farm and the Terrace of Repose, Baron Rivendare's poisoned grain, the last ships to Kalimdor, Saidan Dathrohan and Balnazzar, the purge north of Dalson's Tears, the beheading and the curse, the shades that burn six villages, the battle in the Forlorn Cloister, the Forsaken and Gilnean festivals, the Bonefleet and the Crooked Tree, the Ebon Blade and the Horseman's saddle, and the Dragonflight story of Jerome Hayton, Suzannah and the tale of Sir Thomas.

He was the weakest of the four Old Gods, and the most patient.

Long before Stormwind, Lordaeron or Dalaran, humanity was a hundred quarrelling tribes, hunted by the Amani trolls. Then a warlord named Thoradin won them over one by one, with marriages, promises, and a duel in the fog, and built a city in the dry hills called Strom. This is the story of the kingdom that taught humans magic, gave birth to their faith in the Light, raised the first Guardian of Tirisfal, and then quietly drifted apart into the kingdoms we know.

This episode covers the full arc: the Amani leaders Tan'dani and Jintha, Thoradin and Ignaeus, the forging of Strom'kar, the embassy to Quel'Thalas and the One Hundred, the battle at Alterac Fortress and Lordain's sacrifice, Mereldar and the first dreams of Light, Thoradin's discovery of Tyr's tomb, Dalaran and the Council of Tirisfal, Alodi the first Guardian, the spread to Lordaeron, Gilneas, Kul Tiras, Alterac and Tol Barad, the Ballad of Craishae, Faldir's voyage south, Stromgarde and the House of Trollbane, Anduin Lothar and the Second War, Thoras and Galen, the Battle for Stromgarde, Marran and Go'Shek Farm, the Red Dawn of Legacy of Arathor, and Arathor's heirs in Midnight.

Deep in the jungles of Feralas stands Dire Maul, once the Highborne city of Eldre'Thalas, built to keep Queen Azshara's secrets. When the Well of Eternity was destroyed, its prince bound a demon in the city's west wing and fed his people on its power for thousands of years, until the power ran short and he began murdering his own. Ogres made the ruins their arena, a satyr poisoned its gardens, and adventurers came for its books and its buried swords.

This episode follows the city and its people: the House of Shen'dralar and the Athenaeum, Milli's vine and the ancients, Prince Tortheldrin and Immol'thar, the murdered Highborne, the Gordok ogres and their king's one law, Alzzin the Wildshaper, the Year 25 raids, the forging of Quel'Serrar, the Shen'dralar's return to Darnassus, Cho'gall's Twilight Sermon, the Darkmist Ruins, the Traveler story, the Fourth War, Bel'ameth, and Mordent Evenshade at the gathering in Harandar.

World of Warcraft Plaguelands lore story, the complete history of the Eastern and Western Plaguelands, from the green Eastweald of old Lordaeron to the poisoned grain of Andorhal, the Argent Dawn, the druids who healed the land, and Light's Hope Chapel today.

Before it was the Plaguelands, it was the Eastweald: forest and farmland, old chapels, and the granaries of Andorhal that fed a kingdom. Then the Cult of the Damned poisoned the grain. This is the story of the land itself, and of the ordinary people who lived, died and came back to it: a farmer's wife and her diary, a ghost calling for her husband, a little girl waiting for her father in Darrowshire, and the paladins, druids and travellers who would not let the land go.

This episode covers the full arc: the Eastweald and Blackwood, the plague cauldrons and Andorhal's grain, Hearthglen's bread, Sorrow Hill and Uther's Tomb, the Battle of Darrowshire, the four farms, Maxwell Tyrosus and the thousand heroes of Light's Hope, the Argent Dawn, the Redpath ghosts and Eris Havenfire, the turned cauldrons and the Retaking of Andorhal, Acherus and the Argent Crusade, the Cenarion Circle's healing, Del Gahrron's homecoming, the Battle for Andorhal, Fiona's Caravan, Darrowshire rewritten, the Brotherhood of the Light at Tyr's Hand, and Light's Hope in Midnight.

World of Warcraft Azshara zone lore story, the complete history of the red-leaved coast north of Orgrimmar, from the Highborne cities and the unrecorded heroes of Lake Mennar to the goblins who moved a mountain.

Azshara is the land that carries the queen's name, but tonight's story is about the land itself. Its Highborne cities stood at the heart of the world until the Well of Eternity exploded, and for ten thousand years its drowned ruins belonged to ghosts, blue dragons, a sea giant, satyrs and furbolgs. Then the living came back: orcs and night elves, a hermit archmage, an eyeless demon hunter, and finally the goblins of the Bilgewater Cartel.

This episode follows the coast from Eldarath and the Mennar Academy through Huln Highmountain's war against Tichondrius, the Great Sundering, the Classic-era outposts of Valormok and Talrendis Point, Azuregos and his minnow, the goblin settlement of Bilgewater Harbor, Kalytha's memory and the Sarcen Stone, Subject Nine's rocket, the naga war, Kalecgos's search for Azuregos, the conquest of Talrendis Point, the Legion invasion and Xylem's fall.

World of Warcraft Genn Greymane lore story, the complete history of Genn Greymane and the worgen curse, from the white wolf Goldrinn and the first worgen to the fall of Gilneas and the day Genn gave his crown to his daughter.

Genn Greymane built a wall to keep the whole world out of Gilneas. The curse was already inside. Ten thousand years earlier, night elf druids had bound a fang of Goldrinn to a staff of Elune and become the first worgen. An archmage called them back to fight the Scourge, and the curse spread through the forests until it found the king himself. Then came the Cataclysm, the Forsaken, and the arrow that killed his son.

World of Warcraft Tirisfal Glades lore story, the complete history of the land of Lordaeron, from a titan's grave and the first humans to the kingdom's last day and the Forsaken who made the ruins their home.

Tirisfal takes its name from Tyr's Fall, the glade where a titan-forged keeper died and was buried. The first humans grew up around his tomb, a king named Thoradin swore an oath there, and the kingdom of Lordaeron rose on its hills as the heart of the Church of the Light. Then the plague came to Brill, the king died on his throne, and the dead took the capital for their own.

Gallywix is Warcraft's most shameless villain, and one of its most honest. He stole the Bilgewater Cartel with a smile and an ultimatum, sold his own people into slavery as Kezan burned, shouted uncle to Thrall and still kept his crown, bankrolled the Fourth War with Azerite, and finally made a deal with Xal'atath to rule the goblin capital beneath Kezan. This is his whole story, told in his own words wherever the game and the books let him speak.
