A sun-scorched desert of insect hives in Kalimdor’s southwest, where the Cenarion Circle watches the sealed gates of Ahn’Qiraj.
Silithus is a blistering desert in Kalimdor’s far southwest, broken only by the towering hives of the silithid. Since the War of the Shifting Sands, the insectoid Qiraji have been sealed behind the Scarab Wall raised by the dragonflights, yet their silithid swarms have kept multiplying.
The Cenarion Circle watches the threat from Cenarion Hold, while cultists of the Twilight’s Hammer gather in camps across the dunes for purposes of their own. Behind the wall, the fortress-temple of Ahn’Qiraj waits.
