Deathknell

Deathknell, so named for the custom of tolling the church bells at the passing of a person of a the town, is a ruined village over which Sylvanas Windrunner has claimed hegemony for the Forsaken. Sylvanas's Val'kyr companions alongside her Deathguard administrate the ruins, as it is the site where a great many corpses are dredged from the dirt to become the backbone of the Forsaken legions.
The Cult of the Forgotten Shadow has taken the Church of the Holy Light in the village, where it trains its former priests in the Dark Arts and administers the indoctrination of the newly reanimated residents. When the priests of the Cult are made aware of a new soul brought into the blessing - or the curse - of undeath, they rush to toll the bells in mockery of the old tradition of the death knell.
== History ==
Deathknell was not always the center of undeath. The settlement was once called Vandermar Village.
