Archimonde strode toward the summit of Mount Hyjal, the ancient forest turning to ash beneath his feet, the corpses of allied soldiers carpeting the ridges. Behind him echoed the cries and roars of Adventurers and Demons. Countless routed allied soldiers fled across the mountains, while innumerable Adventurers, rallied by the heroes, launched counterattacks once more, clashing fiercely against the Demon Army...
But Archimonde paid no heed to any of this.
The war with Mortals was no longer entertaining, and the thrill of crushing these ants had grown dull. It was time to claim his prize of victory.
He had only one target in his sights—the World Tree atop Mount Hyjal, and the Well of Eternity hidden beneath it.
The immense power radiating from the Well of Eternity called to him with waves of energy. It was close now, just within his grasp. Once he acquired this power, he would become unimaginably strong—perhaps even more powerful than Sargeras!
