The Borean Tundra Was a TRAP From Day One

The Lich King could have destroyed both invasions of Northrend on day one, and he chose not to. In this World of Warcraft lore video we go back to the Borean Tundra, the zone everyone runs through in Wrath of the Lich King. It's where both beachheads were rotting from the inside. Warsong Hold was built on top of Azjol-Nerub's tunnels, and its peons were being dragged into sinkholes. At Valiance Keep, the orders were signed by a vampire. We'll see how Prince Valanar ran the Alliance's headquarters disguised as Counselor Talbot, how Thassarian and Unit S were sent to die, and why Arthas let both armies land, exactly as he intended.
