Warlords of Draenor, the Backstory

-
During the big announcement on August 14th, Blizzard provided us a glimpse into the background of one of the Warlords, Kargath and how he came to lead the Shattered Hand clan.

Last week (8/21), Blizzard posted a great short story by Robert Brooks, Hellscream. This short story starts off a few days after the events of War Crimes.
Kairozdormu had advised him to expect a few strange discoveries. I've spent my life studying the timeways. If you try to count and compare blades of grass, you'll drive yourself mad, he had said. My plans require a few… favorable conditions, and we'll find them here. This is the perfect timeway for us. Not a perfect mirror image, but perfect nonetheless.
Read the full story online here, or download the PDF.

I found the story shed light on a few items. I think you'll really enjoy getting some further insight into some of what is going on in before we show up in Draenor.

Patch 9.3 Chromie Crisis

-

The bronze dragon, Chromie is still suffering from the events that lead to her many deaths during the Legion invasion. She's fatigued from keeping up access for champions to adventure in the many different timelines. In 9.3, we will adventure into an ever-changing timeline with zones phasing between classic (including season of mastery realms), vanilla (pre-cataclysm), post-cataclysm, and a future alternate reality where the Iron Horde was successful in conquering Azeroth. Characters will phase randomly into various timelines as they are playing through a series of  'What-if' type scenarios.  Some of the possibilities include: Argus never fell to Burning Legion. Quest alongside Velen to perform daily tasks.  Players turn 'evil' after killing the end raid boss of select raids. Your raid team is allowed to hire raid boss' minions and take over the raid environment. The objective is to keep the raid under your control for as long as possible against other raid grou

Bee Math

So you've finally realized that the Bee Mount is the absolute BEST mount in the entire game. You want one, no, NEED one right now. OK, so what do you need to make this happen. Step 0: Go to the auction house and buy a few monel-hardened stirrups . Using the stirrups is the best way to harvest jelly. No need to dismount unless you are attacking something. Try not to. Step 1: Head over to wowhead and read what they said over there. This will give you all the details on how to get started. Turning off ground clutter really does help. Step 1B: set your hearthstone to the inn in Brannadam. It's a bit of a pain if your dalaran hearth is on cooldown, but nice to not have to fly back to stormsong each time. Step 2: You've now finished the intro quest chain, and are planning to harvest lots of thin jelly. You need to level your baby bee up 10,000 (3,000 for baby, another 7,000 for mature) health points to 'mature' and each thin jelly feed this little guy 6, SIX. Th
