History
During the Calamity, a battle between Corellon the Archeart and Gruumsh the Ruiner was held at this then-unnamed hill. According to various myths, when Corellon pierced Gruumsh's eye, the Ruiner's blood rained down and mutated the elven Horselords of Laphithas who rode into battle to aid Corellon. Some were fused with their horses and became the first centaurs, while others were transformed into the first orcs.
In the centuries since, the nomadic centaur herds gather here every decade in an event called the Herdsmeet to discuss the state and politics of their tribes and pay homage to Corellon. Because of their enmity with the centaurs, the orcs of the Ravagers have laid siege to every Herdsmeet since they learned of the gathering. As a result, the centaurs started hiring human mercenaries to help guard these meetings.
