Desolation:

Stratholme City

Stratholme was the second largest Human city in Lordaeron, matched only by the capital. At the beginning of the Second War, Stratholme, specifically the Alonsus Chapel, was the location where the Archbishop Alonsus Faol founded the holy Order of the Knights of the Silver Hand, and indoctrinated its first five members. After the fall of Lordaeron, most of its citizens fled to other kingdoms. A few, however, formed the zealous Scarlet Crusade with the goal of carving up a new empire and defending it against the ravenous Horde and the "traitorous" Grand Crusade alike.
