However, Sylvanas, with Godfrey's aid, captured Lorna Crowley, Darius' daughter, and used her as a bargaining chip. The loss of the Forsaken Fleet was enough to turn the tide completely, forcing the Horde from the tattered kingdom entirely though a small contingent was able to secure the body of Gilnean insurgent and former lord Vincent Godfrey, as well as his henchmen.įollowing the Forsaken defeat in Gilneas, Darius Crowley, leader of the Gilneas Liberation Front, led the final assault on Silverpine Forest, attempting to retake part of the land. This was achieved through the aid from their new allies in the Bloodfang pack, and 7th legion support in the form of naval soldiers and submarines (which proceed to destroy the entire Forsaken fleet in the area). Through several battles, which ended in the loss of all the Forsaken bases aside from the Forsaken Front, the Liberation Front ended up cutting off most of the Forsaken's support and eventually removed the Forsaken from the area completely. Alongside their new 7th Legion allies, the Gilnean forces clashed with the Forsaken armies marching beyond the ruined Greymane Wall. This region quickly became one of the main fronts in the war between the Alliance and the Horde following the Cataclysm. This forced the majority of the population to evacuate Gilneas to seek shelter in the night elven lands, while the Gilneas Liberation Front remained to continue fighting for the freedom of their homeland.

It would not be after the war against the Amani Empire when the Arathi would expand into the peninsula around 2,800 years ago, becoming the location of one of the human city-states.

Otherwise, players will find the zone entirely deserted except for a few animals wandering about due to quest phasing.īetween the Cataclysm and the Fourth War, the peninsula was abandoned.
