Corin's Crossing

Corin's Crossing is a ruined human settlement situated at a major crossroads in south-central Eastern Plaguelands. Once a thriving waystation between Stratholme, Tyr's Hand, Darrowshire, and Andorhal, the devastated town is now utterly overrun by the Scourge. Its crumbling town hall and forge harbor lingering horrors, including invisible spectral watchers.

A Shattered Crossroads

Before the Third War, Corin's Crossing served as a central junction for travel across eastern Lordaeron. Positioned between the shimmering waters of Lake Mereldar and what has now become the blighted chasm of the Infectis Scar, its thoroughfares once bore merchants, couriers, and pilgrims traveling between the great bastion of Stratholme and the southern strongholds. When the plague swept through the province, the settlement stood directly in the path of destruction, collapsing swiftly beneath the sheer weight of the undead vanguard.

A Haven of the Damned

Today, Corin's Crossing is thoroughly lost to the Scourge. Wandering undead pack the muddy streets, while rotting hulks and ghouls linger inside the hollowed-out blacksmith shop and town hall. The town is notably treacherous for scouts: spectral Unseen Servants drift among the ruins completely invisible to ordinary eyes, piercing mundane stealth and ambushing anyone attempting to slip past the main horde undetected.
