The Agamand Mills fall to the Scourge

Full History

The Agamand family attempted to defend its mills against the Scourge during Lordaeron's collapse, but the place fell and its defenders became undead. Coleman Farthing, a Forsaken survivor who remembered the family, later asked for vengeance from Brill. His testimony gives the ruins a human story beneath the broader devastation of Tirisfal.

Mills were part of the settled landscape that the Scourge overturned when the plague spread through Lordaeron. Barricading the Agamand property against the undead did not protect its owners from becoming the kind of enemy they feared. Farthing's account is a survivor's recollection rather than a detailed military history; it names a local tragedy whose precise place in the great battles of the Third War is not established.

At the beginning of the original World of Warcraft, Agamand Mills remains an active danger near Forsaken settlements. Farthing's quest concerns the remains of specific Agamand family members, giving players a glimpse of how former citizens now confront the undead who once were their neighbors. The story does not require assuming that any individual player's quest has already been completed. It stands as a record of loss, resentment, and a landscape still contested after the fall.
