The Halls of Reflection is the third and last wing of the Icecrown Citadel instances. Once the private inner sanctum of the former Lich King, it has been almost completely abandoned by the new lord of the Scourge. Velius and the Twilight's Hammer of Northrend have infiltrated this area, in search of the great saronite necropolis, Malykriss, the Vile Hold..
Lore
When the Knights of the Ebon Blade rebelled against the Lich King, they took with them the mighty necropolis Acherus, the Ebon Hold. In response to the loss of this most potent weapon, the Lich King devised an even more powerful fortress to replace it - Malykriss, the Vile Hold. Constructed completely of the dark metal saronite, the solidified blood of Yogg-Saron himself, Malykriss was to be the ultimate weapon of the Lich King, a mobile engine of destruction that would carry his will to all the corners of Azeroth.
The Lich King was defeated before he could unleash the power of Malykriss, but the dark structure was actually completed prior to his fall. It has lain dormant within the depths of Icecrown, waiting. Visions of the powerful fortress have filled Velius' mind since he bonded saronite armor to his own flesh. The whispers of the Old Gods demand that he seize the vessel for the forces of Twilight. And so he shall.
Nearly all of Velius' lieutenants have been sacrificed in order for him to reach the Halls of Reflection. All that stands between the heroes of the Alliance and the Horde is Twilight Lord Xarosan, the last of Velius' subordinates.

Twilight Lord Xarosan
- The last of the Twilight's Hammer sub-commanders. He is a night elf highborne who has been gathering power and knowledge since the Great Sundering.
Twilight Master Velius
- The leader of the Twilight's Hammer. He has thrown the balance of power in Northrend into utter chaos, all for the opportunity to seize the greatest weapon of the Lich King. Who knows what dark plans he will bring to fruition if the mighty Malykriss falls into his hands? For the sake of Northrend, and all of Azeroth, he must be stopped.
Monsters
The trash waves of Falric and Marwyn have been removed, and are replaced with several packs of Twilight's Hammer forces. The hallways leading to Xarosan's chamber and the Shadow Throne are gauntlets of sorts, with four trash mob packs spawning within 30 seconds of each other at the far end of the hall and running towards the players.
