World of Warcraft has released a preview of the upcoming Shadowlands expansion detailing a new area called the Ardenweald and one of the Covenants called the Night Fae.
The news posting on WoW's site shows off a beautifully dark and ethereal forest that very much screams "Night Elf" territory. This new land of Ardenweald is the resting place of wild spirits to come to an end so that they may be reborn again. Unfortunately, the mysterious anima drought has caused these once lush umbral forests to begin to wither.
Several new key figures and factions are discusses as well in the news post, including the Leader of Ardenweald herself, Winter Queen. Other denizens include the Faeries, Vorkai, Sylvar, Tirnenn, Drust, and Spriggan. Blizzard is teasing that long-passed Heroes of Azeroth might be wandering around this plane as well - I wonder who would have died that might be in a resting place of spirits?
I'm sure we will all find out more information soon when Blizzard hosts their Shadowlands Reveal Event on June 9th.
Editors note: A previous version of this report referred to Ardenweald as Ardenfeld. We've updated this story to reflect the accurate information and apologize for this error.
