Pyrewood Village

Pyrewood Village is an Alliance-friendly village within the Silverpine Forest. The village is a settlement inhabited by a group of humans who have survived the coming of the Scourge, though not without paying a large price in the form of the Worgen Curse.
==History==
===Origins===
The village, along with Ambermill, was originally a part of the Kingdom of Gilneas before the Greymane Wall was erected. Lord Darius Crowley, who was the landholder of both Pyrewood and Ambermill, was displeased by King Greymane's decision to cut off his holdings from the rest of Gilneas and disagreed with Greymane on the rationale of seceding Gilneas from the Alliance of Lordaeron.
Unable to persuade Greymane to change his mind and upset by being cut off from his holdings and his people, Crowley instigated a rebellion. Cut off from any support from Gilneas, Pyrewood was left to its own means after the building of the Wall. Though they retained their Gilnean loyalties until the rise of Arugal; the village along with its denizens never witnessed the rebellion as it occurred after the death of Baron Silverlaine.
===Aftermath of the Third War===
Prince Kael'thas Sunstrider and his caravan, escorted by Tyrande Whisperwind, Maiev Shadowsong and their night elves, made it to Pyrewood Village during their trek through the area. The village was mostly intact, and was built right on the edge of the River Arevass. While holding the bridge that led out of the town and across the river against the undead, Tyrande fell into the river due to the bridge collapsing.
===The Curse of the Worgen===
To the north, overlooking the village, there was a keep owned by Baron Silverlaine. Silverlaine and his servants were slain by Archmage Arugal's worgen, who then took residence in the keep and renamed it Shadowfang Keep.
From there, Arugal cursed the inhabitants of Pyrewood, so that they underwent a nightly transformation into the bestial worgen, then returned to their human forms upon the arrival of dawn. During this time they became hostile to all, including the Alliance. Despite all its hardships, however, the village continues to service Alliance travelers by selling various goods and offering their services whenever they could during day time. Wowpedia -
