Believed to be the most powerful stone of all, The Lich Emerald, as it is usually called, was kept in The Deadmines until Targel found it after killing Cookie, the murloc. Targel took it to Gredral the Gem Merchnat, who died shortly after handling the stone. The emerald once belonged to The Lich King before he took to The Frozen Throne. Now, the stone was in the power of Targel, who realised it's power and thought he destroyed it in The Outland. The Lich King wanted the stone badly and would stop at nothing to get it back. He sent armies of the Scourge to find it and it fell in the hands of an inexperience Draenei, Colaca. His more stronger friend, Red, as he perfers to be called, knew someone who could examine the stone. Red took the stone and found it was the actual emerald and didn't know wether to keep it. He gave it back to Colaca, who then sold it, but nobody would buy it. He then left Bloodmyst Isle and went to Darkshore, which was in ruins. Colaca knew what they came for and the boat to Darnassus was gone and the other destroyed. The scourge had left for Darnassus, and gave Colaca time to leave. Heading for Ashenvale, hopefully to find a Gryphonn, he came accross a hooded man who wanted the emrald for exchange he wouldn't tell the scourge army where he was or who he was. Colaca didn't accept and the hooded man weilded his staff and swung at Colaca, he knew he was in grave danger.
