Before long, Gilneans were fighting against Gilneans in a bloody civil war that left the kingdom in tatters. Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, darkness fell on Gilneas after the Greymane Wall's gates had been closed, and the worgen curse ravaged the nation. The human kingdom had supported the Alliance during the Second War, but King Greymane had no qualms about severing all ties to the outside world when it became clear that the Alliance needed Gilneas more than Gilneas needed the Alliance. Gilneas is located on the peninsula south of Silverpine Forest.
