The dark industries Bronjahm carries out in the Forge of Souls produce tortured, fragmented spirits. To prevent their escape, and use every scrap of the damned, the Lich King created the Devourer of Souls.

The consumed souls are driven mad with anguish and suffering, but the Devourer's hunger is never sated.
