Silvermoon City

Overview

Silvermoon City is the majestic capital of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, nestled within the lush forested region north of the Eastern Plaguelands. Radiant with golden architecture and flowing mana currents, the city is a masterwork of arcane design. Once devastated by the Scourge, Silvermoon has since risen anew—empowered by the restored Sunwell and the enduring pride of its blood elven people.

Military & Defense

Silvermoon is protected by:

  • The Blood Knights (elite paladin order)
  • The Farstriders (ranger scouts and military patrols)
  • The Spellbreakers (anti-magic specialists)
  • Manaforged wards and arcane barriers along the city’s borders

The city’s defenses are strengthened not only by conventional means, but also by the ever-vigilant watch of the Sunwell and the latent power coursing through its inhabitants.
