The second largest human city in Lordaeron, matched only by the capital.
The Horde destroyed the city.
Yet just like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Stratholme was rebuilt.
The populace would not enjoy the rebuilt city for long.
The dreadlord Mal'Ganis and the dreaded Undead Scourge poisened the gain.
The people were becoming Undead.
The crowned Prince of Lordaeron Arthas Menethil arrived and the city was slaughtered by the Prince and his men.
The City now stands as a bastion of Scourge power in the Eastern Plaguelands.
Stratholme was a beautiful place.
Now its a ruined destroyed place.
For it is the burning city.
So adventures beware the Scarlet Crusade and the Undead Scourge don't take kindly to visiters.
For they fight to take Stratholme.
The Burning City.
