Mage Quarter

The Mage Quarter forms the arcane heart of Stormwind City, resting across the canals in the capital's southwestern corner. Towering over its cobblestone streets and esoteric specialty shops stands the Wizard's Sanctum, where the kingdom's conjurers hone their craft. Beneath the district's scholarly surface also lie shadowy recesses, harboring practitioners of far darker arts.

Reachable by bridges crossing the canals from Cathedral Square or the Trade District, the Mage Quarter caters entirely to the mystical needs of the Alliance. Centered around the spire of the Wizard's Sanctum, human and allied spellcasters gather to study the weave of arcane magic and train apprentices. The surrounding streets are crowded with purveyors of tailoring cloth, reagents, alchemical supplies, and enchanted staves, creating an insular district dedicated to research and the defense of the kingdom.
