Rise of Leviathan
"Prologue"

Many inhabitants of Azeroth have their own tales of beginning. Some say it was dwarves who were first born, some say it was trolls and some say elves. But the truth is different. The first civilization wasn't on land, it was under the seas. In the days of old when Titans created life it was murlocs who were first born. Their civilization flourished under the watchful eye of Titan of the Seas called Leviathan. Leviathan along with other titans created many wonders in the realm of water but as the time passed other Titans moved on to the surface. As the surface became populated with new creatures titans stated to forget the sea beings. Leviathan however remained as the protector of what he called his children. As the time passes he grew angry at the others and became closed to them all. Until one day he declared the seas his own. Titans were displeased of this and have tried to convince him that they must not attach them selves to the mortals. Leviathans madness grew and he left titans with no other choice. The war of the Oceans had begun. Titans along with dragons attacked Leviathan and defeated him by sealing him under the deepest part of his beloved oceans. With Leviathans fall great civilizations were destroyed and sea creatures were scattered across Azeroth. To prevent them of going mad Titans created Sea Giants to protect them and make sure they never try to release Leviathan from his prison. But Leviathans servants were many and through dreams their God gave them a vision. In this vision Titans were gone from Azeroth, the great surface has crumbled and new evil has risen. After these three signs Leviathan will once again return to rule the seas.

As the time passed many of Murlocs and Makrura have forgotten the old ways. Their week faith was preserved with in the ranks of priests. They lived under the tyranny of Sea Giants who went mad. Their hope was almost gone until the great war came called by surface-dwellers "The War of Ancients". When the war was over great explosion occurred and the Great Surface was divided. Priests recognized the sign of return but were scared of new evil. Many murlocs went to explore the newly created seas but something happened to them. The energies released after explosion mutated them to what today is called Mur'guls. Murlocs saw them as the new evil duo to their savagery and bloodthirst. War broke among the brothers and brought many deaths. But priests didn't belive thet Mur'guls were the great evil and have tried to bring peace. But even today many Mur'guls fell betrayed by "lesser" creatures. It was at that time when true evil emerged. Once noble highborn mutated and became Naga who sought to rule the world. Both murlocs and mur'guls were attacked mercilessly until they left the deeps and moved to the surface of Kalimdor. Only Makrura were left in their homes because naga was never able to break their cities.

With many of survivors murlocs and mur'gul created villages along shores of Kalimdor and Echo Islands. They were accepted by some races wile some saw them as threat. But the problems were not yet over for the spirit of once dead Highborn has made her home inside the caves of Echo islands. Wit her magic she enslaved many murlocs for her personal reasons. With this new treat murlocs abandoned Echo Islands. The hope was once again faint and murlocs have lost faith. At that time on the east great power was noticed by priests and they saw it as the sign of return. Many of expedition were sent but they all have said same. Great power priests felt was a portal from which strange green creatures came. Expedition than established new homes on Eastern Continents in hope to see the promised sign. Then the Third War came and with its end something was awakened. In the bottom of ocean at the Hellwater the imprisoned God was waking. The day has finally arrived...
