==History==
===Cataclysm===
Following the Cataclysm, the port town of Auberdine was destroyed when Deathwing flew over it. Now, all that remains of the night elven town are the wrecked and desolated buildings while the former docks are plunged into the sea. The inhabitants that fled founded two new settlements: the town of Lor'danel in the north,Sentinel Selarin#Quotes and the Auberdine Refugee Camp in the east.In Aid of the Refugees Some stayed behind, however, hoping to salvage their own home. They were eventually forced out by an attack of the Twilight's Hammer cultists and their water elementals. Many of the refugees fleeing this second attack were killed during their trek towards Lor'danel along the coast. Fatalities included the town's elder, Thundris Windweaver. The survivors were picked up by sentinels and hippogryphs from Lor'danel, where they were tended to by priestesses.Breaking Waves of ChangeThe Last Wave of Survivors A memorial plaque for the fallen was eventually erected within the town.

During the Battle for Darkshore, both sides sought to use the ruins of Auberdine as the starting point of their assault. The Alliance was also trying to rebuild the town's inn and the docks, with Nevara Nightshade commanding the elven defenses here. The long pier of Auberdine Coast is patrolled by wisps. When the Horde controlled the zone, the entire town was ruined again.

==Notes==
*For tailors and miners, the moonwell is intact, and the forge is partially buried, but still usable.
*One denizen, likely a night elf male by the looks of the skeleton, died while underwater below one of the buildings in Auberdine. He was wearing some form of diving helmet, though the rest of his clothing (if he was wearing any at all) has long since dissolved.
