Stormwind Gate
Stormwind Gate[1] is a massive gate that separates Stormwind City from Elwynn Forest. It is located between Elwynn Forest and the Valley of Heroes. Signs can be found throughout the human capital city pointing to Stormwind Gate. The gates are of course always open to allow players to travel in and out of the city. Two Stormwind City Guards stand just outside the gate (Elwynn Forest zone) and two stand just inside the gate (Stormwind City zone). Two Stormwind City Guards also patrol from one side of the Valley of Heroes (General Hammond Clay) to the other side (Stormwind Gate).
It's also the place for Alliance's holidays such as Hallow's End and Love is in the Air.
During the third invasion of the Burning Legion, the gate was extra-protected by its guards, but the Uncrowned member still managed to enter it.[2]
During the War of the Thorns, refugees from Darnassus were spread through the city, spilling out most of the way to Goldshire.[3]
When Wrathion brought the Obsidian Warders to Stormwind City after the discovery of the Dragon Isles, the Stormwind City Guard alerted Spymaster Mathias Shaw and protected the gates, until they were ordered to let them pass by the director of the SI:7.[4]
