Greetings, fellow travelers of Azeroth. Prepare yourself, as we set off on a journey through echoing tunnels and corridors. Join me as the Loremaster of this dungeon, and unlock the secrets of this infamous place, where the legacy of the Defias Brotherhood is etched in stone. Welcome to the heart of Westfall's darkness; welcome to the Deadmines.

In an age before the tempest of war swept across the land, the Deadmines were known as a glittering heart of abundance, a haven of precious metals safely tucked away within the dominion of humankind. Legends spoke of these very mines being the lifeblood of Stormwind’s coffers, enriching the city's vaults with the golden deposits flowing from the veins of these underground corridors.

Today, this subterranean expanse is not just a theater of the malevolent Defias Brotherhood, who were once humble laborers and stonemasons, but it is also a significant chapter in the history of Azeroth. Join me as we descend into the bowels of the earth, where the winding pathways of the Deadmines curve beneath Westfall's fields and reach out towards the fringes of Stranglethorn Vale. As we step into this tale of darkness and deception, the Deadmines' secrets await, ready to be unveiled. But beware, for not only is this dungeon filled with traps and ruthless foes, it also holds the origins of the Defias Brotherhood and the promise of untold treasures for those brave enough to explore its depths.
