The Story of War of the Scaleborn with Nobbel87
Today, Nobbel87 is taking us through bits and pieces of the story from the new World of Warcraft novel: War of the Scaleborn.
The Story of War of the Scaleborn
As I said in my review, if you’re interested in dragons and the story of Dragonflight, if you’re curious about the formative years after the Aspects took care of Galakrond and became the Aspects… this book is definitely worth your time and I’d never be able to tell the story as well as the book does.

Vyranoth says: You did nothing while your masters warped our children still in the shell!
Alexstrasza the Life-Binder says: That abhorrent act should never have happened.
Alexstrasza the Life-Binder says: And I regret my part in it every day.
