Azjol-Nerub: Azjol-Nerub » Zones » WoW Armory Light

Azjol-Nerub: The Upper Kingdom, also known as the Spider Kingdom, is the vast underground empire of the arachnid Nerubians, located on the icy continent of Northrend. The entrance to Azjol-Nerub can be found in the northern reaches of the Dragonblight.

Azjol-Nerub is described as being its very own zone, located underground. The kingdom consists of two main sections, the Old Kingdom and the Upper Kingdom. Part of the Upper Kingdom is controlled by dwarves, who control a small town known as Doorward, while some areas are controlled by the Scourge. Deeper underground is the Old Kingdom, which is controlled by potentially "neutral" Nerubians. Brann Bronzebeard claims it may be possible for an alliance with their faction if one is willing to help them clear out the Scourge from their Empire. Still, some areas are controlled by the Faceless Ones.

Azjol-Nerub: The Upper Kingdom is a mystery waiting to be explored. It once held a powerful and advanced civilization, and many of its treasures still rest here undamaged. Great riches litter the lower halls, not only gems and magic items but art and literature and scholarly tomes. The Scourge infest this place. Forgotten ones seethe below, eager to return to the world above.
