Random Greek Mythology thought

So Pallas is the name of a daughter of Triton. She was a friend of Athena.

And there’s also Pallas the Titan of Warcraft, husband of Styx, son of Crius and Eurybia.

So what if at a Family reunion for the gods Athena hears Pallas’ name called, the titan, and thinks that they mean her childhood friend, which she accidentally killed, only to be greeted by the Titan.

Then she would probably apologize saying she thought he was someone else whilst crying on the inside.

Alright, Warcraft has stolen my brain today, so I'm talking about player housing in WoW. Specifically, on the "neighborhood" feature referenced in Blizzard's official sneak peak into housing and my theories on future neighborhoods.

For reference, said sneak peak: https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/24176592

Basically, instead of your house being effectively a pocket dimension you can hop to like some games, your house will be one of about 50 in a "neighborhood" zone in the open world.

The first two neighborhoods have been soft confirmed to be here:

I am particularly excited because the way they talk about how housing will play into RP and community makes me wonder if people will be able to use this system to basically create their own towns. Towns you could potentially basically create your own lore, history, and story for. Which would be very fun.

Anyways, the precedent set by these first two neighborhoods has me theorizing about future neighborhoods.

Specifically, the fact that both are situated at the intersection of multiple zones, in order to include as many aesthetics as possible in the neighborhood. I think we can safely assume this philosophy will be carried forward into future neighborhoods.

I believe alongside neighborhoods themed around the other main WoW races, we will see a neighborhood added to each expansion area. For Midnight & The Last Titan, these are my theorized neighborhood locations:

(I believe Zul'Aman will be expanded into a full zone on the eastern side of Quel'thalas in Midnight, so the Midnight neighborhood would have bits of all 3 zones, and Grizzly Hills is the fan favorite Northrend zone, so I knew whatever neighborhood got made for TLT would need to include Grizzly Hills)

Dwarf & Gnome neighborhood location:

Undead neighborhood location:

Tauren & Night Elves were a little trickier, because they have a few options that would make sense, but here are possible Night Elf neighborhood locations:

And Tauren neighborhood locations:

I am betting this is the system WoW will be using moving forward. A new neighborhood for each expansion, plus neighborhoods for the core WoW races (I couldn't find one that made sense for Darkspear Trolls, but they will probably get bits of Zul'Aman and Zul'Drak, so there is that). It will probably be several years before we see all these brought to life though. I would be surprised if we got a new housing neighborhood at any rate faster than 1 per year.

Ash Crowned and Ember Blooded

They do not wear their history like a banner, they brand it into their skin. Where the Bronzebeard Dwarves toast to ancestry and the Wildhammers sing to the wind, the Dark Iron speak in whispers to flame, and to things older than fire.

Born from the same stone as their cousins, they were broken not by time, but by ambition, and what rose from that fracture was a people of smoldering pride and relentless cunning.

Let us now descend, deeper than stone, into the halls where flame remembers.

I. The Sundering of the Anvil

The War of the Three Hammers and the Fall to Flame

Before fire ever ruled their halls, the Dark Iron Dwarves were simply one of three great clans that arose from the shattering lineage of the Earthen. Alongside the Bronzebeards and Wildhammers, they shared a common ancestry rooted in stone, but not in spirit.

When the High King of Ironforge died, leaving no clear heir, peace cracked like cooling iron. The council meant to unify the clans into shared rule crumbled under centuries of buried resentment and ambition. Thus began the War of the Three Hammers, not merely a civil war, but a divine tragedy of heritage turned hostile.

The Bronzebeards, ever pragmatic, claimed the city of Ironforge itself, expelling the other clans after winning the conflict.

The Wildhammers, proud and storm-blooded, flew to the high peaks of Grim Batol, forging a bond with the skies.

And the Dark Irons, led by the ambitious sorcerer Thaurissan, seethed in the shadows of the south.

They were not content to lose.

Driven by wounded pride and the fire of arcane hunger, Thaurissan and his queen Modgud launched a desperate, two-front war to seize both Ironforge and Grim Batol. Their armies surged like smoke, fierce, unrelenting, bolstered by dark magics and forbidden rites. But the gods did not favor them.

In the north, Modgud’s assault on the Wildhammers failed, she was slain, and her troops scattered, but not without leaving a terrible curse on the home of the Wildhammers.

In the south, Thaurissan’s assault crumbled under Bronzebeard resistance and his own underestimation.

Humiliated, enraged, and driven to the edge of madness, Thaurissan turned not to tactics, but to summoning.

From the volcanic heart of the Redridge Mountains, he cast a spell intended to bring forth a being of power enough to burn his enemies and the world with them. He succeeded.

He summoned Ragnaros, the Firelord.

The mountain exploded. The land burned. And the Dark Irons were changed forever.

II. The Forging of Shadowed Souls

Culture, Curses, and the Alchemy of Fire

Unlike their kin, the Dark Iron did not build in harmony with stone, they scorched it into submission. Their architecture is forged, not carved. Their magic is alchemical, infernal, arcane.

Centuries of servitude to Ragnaros changed them. Their skin grew ashen, their eyes emberlit. Fire infused their bloodlines. But more importantly, the clan changed itself: where others worshipped gods or kings, the Dark Iron revered power, in all its cruel, brilliant forms.

They are ruled by craft and intrigue: from shadow-forging sorcerers to hammer-wielding priests of magma. Even their history is molten, rewritten with each new ruler who survives the infernal crucible of succession.

Their rituals blend dwarven rune-lore with fire elementalism. They build golems, forge cursed weapons, and harness ancient machines powered by imprisoned elementals.

III. Ashes Unbound, Oaths Rekindled

Modern Legacy, New Loyalties, and Future Pyres

Today, the Dark Iron are no longer bound to Ragnaros. With his second death, they have clawed their way back from elemental servitude into political firelight.

Under Moira Thaurissan, daughter of Ironforge and widow of the Dark Iron's last emperor, the clan walks a knife’s edge between vengeance and diplomacy. Now part of the Alliance, begrudgingly, they bring unmatched forge-magic and espionage to the fight against threats like the Void, the Legion, and worse.

Yet many still dwell in the darkest part of Shadowforge City, a labyrinth of lava and steel buried beneath Blackrock Mountain, where old rites still simmer and oaths to flame are whispered in secret.

Some among the League of E.V.I.L. would call these dwarves useful allies. I couldn't agree more.

Epilogue: The Anvil Remembers

To study the Dark Iron is to learn the truth behind all dwarves: that stone remembers its shaping, but fire remembers its betrayal.

Their curse is now their culture. Their exile, their armor. And in the clanging of their forge-halls, one hears not nostalgia, but a future being hammered, spark by spark, in defiance of every throne and god that tried to break them.

Should the League ever seek a forge that burns with ambition equal to ours… Blackrock still burns.

— Zharrdor Kron, Loremaster of the League of E.V.I.L.
