7th Fleet

The **7th Fleet** (or the **Seventh Fleet**) is one of the Alliance fleets belonging to the 7th Legion.

## History

 **This section concerns content related to the *Warcraft* novels, novellas, or short stories.**
It was sent by King Varian Wrynn to defend Theramore Isle against the Horde. Its flagship was the *Spirit of Tiffin* and it bore General Marcus Jonathan, Shandris Feathermoon and her Sentinels and General Tiras'alan.

After the destruction of Theramore, Varian ordered the fleet rebuilt. New ships, blessed by the Light and referred only as the Alliance fleet, attacked the Horde near Durotar only to be almost defeated by enslaved kraken. With the arrival of Jaina Proudmoore and Kalecgos, the fleet was saved and retreated to the Merchant Coast. As it threatened to destroy the Horde blockade, Garrosh Hellscream pulled the Horde fleet back.

The 7th Fleet was later dispatched to find the missing Anduin Wrynn in Pandaria, and participated in Operation: Shieldwall as the main battle force there.

Their cannons were used by the Stormwind forces that participated in the counterattack of the Blasted Lands against the Ironmarch invasion force of the Iron Horde from the alternate Draenor.

 **This section concerns content related to *Battle for Azeroth*.**
The 7th Legion sent a fleet to apprehend Talanji after she broke out of the Stockade of Stormwind City. Only a single ship escaped the attack of the Golden Fleet, while the shipwrecked survivors constructed a base near their landing site in Zuldazar.
