Level 13-15 · Ill Omens Pt III

Dragonblight grips the vibrant city of Canos. Its southern districts are overrun by the affliction, as bodies contort and break apart, forming into Amalgamations, or keeping as wandering lost souls.

The city will soon be lost, though there are other heroes who might rise to the occasion, and if they are swift, annihilate the ailment before it claims them too. June’s Campaign – Ill Omens Pt II: A Grim Fate, continues the events of Part I, as the Dragonblight has travelled further south through Draksborne, enveloping its inland trade hub of Canos.
