The Eastern Plaguelands contain a normal instanced dungeon (Stratholme), and formerly contained the raid dungeon Naxxramas. The micro dungeon Tyr's Hand can also be found here. Light's Hope Chapel serves as a travel hub for both the Horde and the Alliance. There are no battlegrounds in this zone, though it is a world PvP area.
Eastern Plaguelands is heavily-ravaged from the Scourge. The Argent Dawn has made some progress after The Lich King's defeat, but the zone is still full of Undead. Players explore Eastern Plaguelands primarily through escorting a worgen merchant, Fiona, and her band of merry travelers she picks up along the way. The Plaguelands are the site for some of the most gripping storylines, including the Battle for Darrowshire and the fate of the Stratholme residents.
