About

Tarren Mill was a human town. The Forsaken took it, and it is now a Horde outpost in a country that remembers it differently. Southshore is a short walk away, and the two towns do not speak. [WoW Classic · Hillsbrad Foothills]

Old Hillsbrad and Durnholde Keep lie nearby, where Thrall's escape began.
