"My only hope is that it never sees the light of day again."Part five:Long after Kathra'natir's defeat, Apocalypse resurfaced. it must do so through mutual trust and understanding. It is not the ideal course, but so be It. They would prefer we lock It away alongside other artifacts recovered from demons. "I have requested that we destroy the weapon, but the other council members have reservations. And these are just some of Its tamer qualities. The weapon has a way of dredging up fears long forgotten and giving them new life. "In the blade's presence, I am physically weakened. Apocalypse remained behind.Part four:An account of Apocalypse from the journal of Alodi, first Guardian of Tirisfal: After a series of grueling battles, Alodi narrowly defeated Kathra'natir and banished him from the world. He was part of the Council of Tirisfal, a secret order of magi formed to protect Azeroth from demons. If not for Guardian Alodi, Dalaran might have destroyed itself. Gruesome plagues ravaged the city, which the common folk believed had originated from the magi. He tainted Dalaran's water supplies and food stores. Kathra'natir used Apocalypse to inflame these fears. Many of the city's non-magic users were superstitious, and they viewed spellcasters with thinly veiled unease. ![]() Kathra'natir found Dalaran ripe for upheaval. Through one such rift, Kathra'natir clawed his way Into Azeroth. Their abuse of magic inadvertently tore open rifts in reality. By sunrise, not a single soldier remained to oppose the Legion.Part three:Thousands of years ago, the city of Dalaran was inundated by reckless spellcasters. Kathra'natir admired his handiwork from a distance, listening to the symphony of chaos that filled the night. They began to fear each other as much as the Legion. All the while, Apocalypse clouded the defenders' ability to reason. Inflaming old hatreds and ancient rivalries. He whispered rumors of betrayal In every ear. Kathra'natir walked among Navane's resistance forces, disguised as one of their own soldiers. The alliance was tenuous at best, easy prey for Kathra'natir and Apocalypse. Though they shared a history of enmity, they put aside their differences and united against the demons. This world was home to a handful of intelligent races. The weapon passed to him during the Burning Legion's invasion of Navane. In this way, Apocalypse became a fusion of all the dark arts the nathrezim had at their disposal.Part two:The last of the nathrezim to wield Apocalypse was named Kathra'natir. Through the lessons learned from their conquests, they endowed the blade with new plagues and maledictions. Whenever Apocalypse changed hands, its nathrezim owners would alter and refine it. ![]() Even the mere sight of the blade was enough to sap the strength of mortals and cause them to tremble in fear. Through acts of murder and betrayal, the weapon drove the Legion's enemies to turn on each other. Through the creation of plagues and famines, Apocalypse stoked the fires of paranoia. Each wielder used It to weaken mortal civilizations and leave them vulnerable to conquest by the Burning Legion. Over the course of centuries, Apocalypse passed from one nathrezim to another. Many of these demons forged and shaped the blade as a tool to hasten the fall of worlds. In the right hands, this weapon has singlehandedly brought entire civilizations crashing down before the Legion's armies ever began their invasion.Part one:Apocalypse was not crafted by a single nathrezim. It holds the power to spread plagues, incite wars, and turn ally against ally. The nathrezim blade called Apocalypse has accomplished all of these things. One disease can reduce a great city to a graveyard.
