The assassin Akaari Shadowgore spent centuries in these chambers, her essence being shaped, molded and intertwined with the power of her dreaded daggers, the Fangs of the Devourer. īelow the surface of Argus, there are many dark and secret chambers where weapons are forged and wills are broken. Within the palace's crystal corridors are runes which fill the mind with despair, visions of conquest, and a rage to end all things: the creed of the Burning Legion, written in fire. At the center of the city is a mighty palace that is home to Archimonde and Kil'jaeden. The buildings resemble those of the draenei but far more grandiose. There is a city which looms over canyons of fractured crystal and is laid out according to complex geomantic rules. Jagged crystal mountains hold festering corruption within that cause them to crumble, and dust devils born of the powdered gems screech down canyons of serrated rock which refract light everywhere. The area of Argus that Illidan Stormrage visited during the Invasion of Outland was once a beautiful place of crystalline mountains and shimmering seas, but is now cold and cruel with a sense of corruption and loss.
Krokuun lies on the edge of this rift, one of the removed portions is the city of Mac'Aree, and the Antoran Wastes lie inside of the rift on a cliff above the core of the world. It is now bisected by a massive, hellish slash in the crust of the planet itself, where a portion of the planet has been blown into orbit. The city now floats above the planet and has mostly escaped fel corruption, giving something of an insight into what Argus was like before its corruption.Īrgus is saturated with the fel energies of the Burning Legion. The Last Relic of Argus holds the inscription: "I long for Mac'Aree". Mac'Aree has also been described as having purple hills. According to Jessera of Mac'Aree, its walkways were lined with precious minerals and the rivers glittered even in complete darkness. Mac'Aree was the most sacred of the eredar's cities. It also had deserts, forests, lush plains, frozen tundras, and other environs.
Wintergrasp and its chill reminded Anchorite Tessa of the stormy peaks of Kaarinos.
