The defense above was led by Varok Saurfang, Baine Bloodhoof, and Lor'themar Theron. The Horde evacuated the civilians of the Undercity and dealt with the infiltrating SI:7 and Druids of the Claw, although not before Renzik 'The Shiv' escaped with the intel he needed. The battle began with the Alliance forces led by Anduin Wrynn and Genn Greymane arriving with the Third Fleet to Tirisfal Glades from the north, and coming all the way to the south to raze Brill. The Alliance gathered their forces, aiming to strike back, and marched onwards to Lordaeron Keep.Д«efore the battle, Undercity's population had already been moved to Orgrimmar through mage portals. After the invasion of Darkshore, the World Tree Teldrassil, home of the night elves, was burned down on Sylvanas Windrunner's orders. The discovery of Azerite ignited the flames of war, with the Horde taking the opportunity to preemptively strike at the Alliance. Since the fall of the Burning Legion, tensions kept rising between the Alliance and the Horde. The result of the Burning of Teldrassil, it marks the beginning of Battle for Azeroth, similarly to Legion's Battle for the Broken Shore. The Battle for Lordaeron (or the Fall of Lordaeron and the Siege of Lordaeron) was fought by the Alliance and Horde for the control of Undercity and the Ruins of Lordaeron.
