In the vast expanse of the cosmos, the Pantheon—architects of worlds and harbingers of order—met their demise at the hands of the fallen titan, Sargeras. His Burning Legion scorched countless planets, reducing them to smoldering ruins.

Amidst this chaos, a nascent Titan Soul named Azeroth began to stir within the boundless void. To safeguard this emerging entity, elemental spirits rallied millions of formidable lords to this seemingly insignificant planet. Together, they repelled the Burning Legion's onslaughts multiple times, preserving Azeroth's potential.

Following the fall of Antorus, the Legion's stronghold, and the imminent imprisonment of Sargeras, the cunning dark titan devised a final stratagem. He summoned alluring succubi and proffered chests brimming with gold to entice a man named Bobby Kotick. Through malevolent energies, Sargeras ensnared Kotick's mind, ensuring his influence would persist.

On January 24, 2023, at the stroke of midnight, within the Laniakea Supercluster's Virgo Galaxy Cluster, in the Milky Way's Orion Arm, on the third planet from the sun, a significant event transpired. The million lords of Azeroth logged off, marking the occurrence known as the "124 Incident."

In the aftermath, the Mulgore Hotel emerged as a sanctuary for weary souls. Serving as a conduit between worlds, it became a place where the elements and totems converged, and the whispers of souls could be heard—a testament to the enduring mission of the shaman.
