UNDER CONSTRUCTION related to Spider Kingdom Expansion Concept

The Pit of Saron is a great saronite quarry located in the mountains surrounding Icecrown Citadel. Enshrouded in unnatural fog, the quarry is almost impossible to locate from the air, and only by passing through the twisting tunnels and dark halls of the citadel itself can one find it. Beyond the quarry is a gate leading into the hidden, inner sanctum of the Lich King - the Frozen Halls. Passing through the pit is the only way to breach these forbidden portions of the citadel.

Lore

The Pit of Saron was once a place where captives of the Alliance and the Horde were worked to death by cruel Scourge overseers, and then raised into undeath and forced to continue their labor. Massive quantities of saronite ore were extracted from the Pit and used in the construction of the Lich King's most fiendish weapons. The Twilight's Hammer have secured this quarry and have continued the Scourge mining operations under the command of Forgemaster Balehammer. The Hammer stands guard over the entrance to the innermost reaches of Icecrown Citadel, the Frozen Halls, where Velius has gone. Velius seeks the dread saronite necropolis, Malykriss, which was completed shortly before the death of the Lich King but never unleashed.

Bosses

Forgemaster Balehammer and Dread Iron: Balehammer obtained the secrets of creating Iron Dwarves while in Storm Peaks. His first efforts were not particularly successful, but he appears to have perfected his method and created a massive iron giant that he has named Dread Iron.

Twilight Arcanist Zin'fanel: A skilled blood elf arcanist, Zin'fanel has attempted to secure places of arcane power throughout Northrend in order to create wychwyrms to serve the Twilight's Hammer. She was repeatedly thwarted in her efforts, which have gradually unhinged her mind. After her latest plot was foiled, she began to hear the dread voice of the Malevolence, which have overpowered even the whispers of the Old Gods in her mind.

Dark Master Zorc: An orc warlock who serves the Twilight's Hammer as a means to gather more power for himself. He failed to capture the secrets of the Titans in Sholazar Basin, and is eager to exact his revenge upon adventurers in the Pit of Saron. He controls the power of hellfire and will summon many demons to aid him in combat.

Twilight Lord Urizen: Urizen was trapped in the Twilight Realm after being caught in the vortex at Gundrak. Now he's returned as a specter and intends to take revenge on anyone trying to enter the Frozen Halls.
