About

Darkshire sits in a forest where the sun barely reaches. Its people have learned to live with undead, worgen and spiders. The town is small and hard, and everyone locks their door. [WoW Classic · Duskwood]

The Night Watch is the town's militia. Its members are volunteers, and they are tired.

Quests and Rumors
