XI. THE DEAD RISE AS QUEL'THALAS FALLS | Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness | Scene 2

Warcraft II: Tides of Darkness, released in 1995, is a seminal real-time strategy game that significantly advanced the genre. It expanded upon its predecessor with richer lore, refined resource management, and introduced naval and air combat. Players command either the Alliance or the Orcish Horde in a vast war for control of the continent of Lordaeron. The mission "XI. The Dead Rise as Quel'Thalas Falls" from the Orc campaign is a pivotal moment. It depicts the brutal fall of the high elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas to the Orcish Horde. In this mission, Warlock Gul'dan unleashes his most horrific innovation: Death Knights. These are created by infusing the souls of slain Shadow Council warlocks into the corpses of fallen human knights. This dark magic not only signifies the destruction of the Elven stronghold but also the horrifying rebirth of the dead as instruments of war, marking a descent into necromantic terror for the Horde.
