Scourgeholme

Scourgeholme is a Scourge fortress located in eastern Icecrown. The area contains a slaughterhouse and three ziggurats, including a newer model.
During the war against the Lich King, the Argent Vanguard was the first forward base established by the Argent Crusade when they breached Icecrown under the command of Highlord Tirion Fordring. Located in the Valley of Echoes, it gave them a path into Scourgeholme, which the highlord hoped to conquer and remake into an Argent Crusade fortress.Exploring Azeroth: Northrend, pg. 139
