Ancient Wards
Ancient Wards keep the pressure of the surrounding ocean depths at bay but must be powered up by players standing on them. Azshara's forces will use various means to power them down.
Stage One: Cursed Lovers
Azshara summons the cursed lovers: Aethanel, and Cyranus to attack the players. Overzealous Hulks storm the playspace in an effort to disable the Ancient Wards while Azshara herself torments players with her own abilities. This stage ends when both Aethanel and Cyranus are defeated.
Aethanel and Cyranus, the Cursed Lovers
Aethanel and Cyranus have been cursed to constantly swap between periods of Longing to see each other and Painful Memories of a life that could have been. Their Cursed Hearts poison the ground beneath them.
