The Lore of Ironforge | The Chronicles of Azeroth

[@Nu_C-Jay]

More Dwarven Lore! This is the gold mine right here as we would never grow bored of the subject!❤❤

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

We have also traveled through the War of the Three Hammers, Dun Morogh and Loch Modan! Enjoy!

[@DemitriousDemarcusJrThe3rd]

You made me hooked after i listened to some of these stories while i was trying to sleep and actually made me sleep well.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Hopefully you will be able to stay awake during this one!

[@megabyte1778]

It just means you have to listen to it again 😊

[@theycallmejphil5018]

I love this. It’s like a documentary but about my childhood

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Great to hear it! Expect similar videos of the other capitals in Azeroth and beyond!

[@TheOGtokublaze]

I don't mean to sound like an obsessive fan or anything put your videos absolutely love them. There are some of the best things that I listen to when I fall asleep. The way you describe the stories the way you go into depth it's made me fall in love with the warcraft universe again

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Wow, thank you! This means a lot and doesn't come across as obsessive at all! Day by day, I can see the shared excitement for the Warcraft universe that's very much alive among the fans of this timeless game. Thanks again, and enjoy the stories, there's a lot more coming!

[@TheOGtokublaze]

@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth awesome! I watch every one as they come out!

[@electricmayhem8147]

Ironforge was my first favorite city! Such an epic walk up to it. very memorable!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

While my first city was Stormwind, eventually walking up to the gates of Ironforge has been imprinted on my brain so vividly!

[@Telarion1337]

00:03:11 nobody talking about the people on invincibles guarding the spectral tiger guy?

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

You have a keen eye, fellow traveller!

[@Lupinemancer87]

Ironforge. Once I finally managed to meet up with my brother in this city, after my little detour, we toured the city and loved the structure.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

The aesthetics are beautiful indeed!

[@HepodixUNITE]

This is the type of content I didn't know I need, but now I do.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Makes my day! Have a good one, and until our next adventure together!

[@konasavage]

These videos are delightful. Thank you.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Glad you like them!

[@Patiofurnitr]

Thanks

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

My pleasure, fellow adventurer! Again, most kind! Cheers!

[@ShizukanaEntertainment]

Alliance was the faction who got the blessing of sublime cities.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

The Alliance does boast some of Azeroth's most breathtaking architectures, though the Horde's capitals carry a raw, majestic spirit of their own peoples! All are spectacles to behold in their own right.

[@hospitalcakewalk]

This is my favorite city in Azeroth :D

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Welcome to Ironforge!

[@ponyote]

Strangely I heard that in the voice of FemShep from Mass Effect. Lol

@ponyote XD

[@DisgustedAsmon]

The heat of the forge would fry those damned gryphons. Look how close they’re positioned to it! It’s akin to standing close to bonfire while it grows and then being forced back away due to the growing heat. But the gryphons, they just sit there frying like idiots!

[@BobGrillsProductions]

[@DonTinker]

Always loved the uniqueness of Ironforge!

[@Olli-Tech]

This is just beautiful!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Thanks!

[@alexanderdavis7749]

man i wish i could visit IRL!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Would be some kind of view!

[@KatsuKhorneflakes]

My favourite Place in Azeroth 😍

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Hey, your name checks out!

[@damosel]

I learned so much about Ironforge!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

This goes for you and me both! There are so many details, often right there in front of us, yet hidden from view!

[@mattyschell1973]

This is my first time seeing one of your vids. Sold. 100%. And your voice/presentation makes this feel more like I'm listening to a documentary. Love it.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Welcome aboard fellow traveler! I'm thrilled to hear you enjoyed your first adventure on the channel! Just to be transparent, I want to mention that while the scripts are written by me, the narration is done with the help of AI to bring a unique style to the stories. My aim is to create an immersive and engaging experience for all viewers, and I look forward to sharing many more captivating advantures with you!

[@Storiann]

Excellent, as always!!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Much appreciated! Cheers!

[@blazindragon1833]

Only a mention of the Airfield? Also why no talk about the Brawlers Guild?

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

The brief mention of the airstrip and the omission of the Brawler's Guild were deliberate choices, rooted in the channel's focus on the early expansions of WoW. Originally, the airstrip in Dun Morogh was a bit of a rumour, largely inaccessible and shrouded in mystery, which is why it received a limited spotlight. As for the Brawler's Guild, since it was introduced after Mists of Pandaria, it falls outside our current scope. I aim to capture the essence of the game's early days, but I appreciate your interest and might explore these additions in future content as the channel evolves!

[@lad4830]

If I may suggest to lower the voice volume by 15% or so

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Good suggestion! I will take this into account on the next episode :)

[@KeepitMETAL]

What a cool channel for all of us wow nerds haha and the old school vibe is awesome too

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Very nice to hear! Sticking to the classic version worked wonders nostalgia-wise!

[@SecretSilverForest]

love your video, keep up the good work and have a lovely holiday season.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Happy Winter Veil Holidays, fellow traveler!

[@johnnyvain544]

I always get lost in that maze. Great place to go as a horde rogue too.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Man, I have always had trouble with navigating Undercity! Ironforge seems so much more logical :)

[@PizzaPatroll]

Another wonderful video! Love Ironforge so much.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Hope I did the first lore overview of a city justice!

[@0That_Guy0]

Good stuff! Looking forward to the next chapter in the Loremaster’s works! :D

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

There might be a seasonal episode laying around here somewhere!

[@0That_Guy0]

@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth Awesome!

[@giovanniprovost]

Making a dwarf leading up to War Within and seeing this, its like peanut butter and jelly. Thanks Loremaster!!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

I'm glad you like it! Happy holidays!

[@phantom0456]

But there I was! I was taken to a place… The Hall of the Mountain King!

Merry Christmas, my fellow dwarves and gnomes!

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Happy Winter Veil Holidays!

[@Wowlore]

Amazing work!!!

[@Fatalroadie]

Leys not forget the dwarven historian at the high seat, the Wildhammer Fact Checker LOL. good video sir as always.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

The Fact Checker, of course! Red Shirt Guy! Will mention him in another video for sure :)

[@Fushikatz]

Is there a dwarven name for Ironforge? English feels more like a human/common language ingame. With other dwarven structures its always Dun This or Grim That.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

Spot on oberservation, and rather curious indeed! While specific Dwarven names for Ironforge aren't explicitly detailed in the official lore, we might speculate something along the lines of 'Dun Morogh' or 'Khaz Modan,' as these terms embody the essence of dwarven strongholds. 'Ironforge' could perhaps be 'Dun Ferra' in Dwarven, combining 'Dun' (fortress) and a term reflecting 'iron' or 'forge.

[@Fushikatz]

@@TheChroniclesofAzeroth thank you.

[@drubs7]

Lets goooo

[@KaijuTurtle]

Nothing compares to the first time ascending the mountain to enter ironforge, and having your frame rate absolutely tank because your computer sucks and it’s 2006 so IF is THE alliance hub city.

The only Alliance city I like

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

What is your favourite Horde Capital?

[@bhstone1]

Stormwind is such a disgusting city. It's like they quit right in the middle of building it.

[@ThePepsidewcola]

Videos would be better if they werent AI generated.

[@0That_Guy0]

I’m honestly glad he is using it to make these. Many of the bigger topics are covered by the older and larger lore channels, so I appreciate these videos. And AI can’t do everything. There is still the matter of research, editing, getting the footage etc. The AI helps with narration and writing, but I think there is more to the production value here than what AI could do on its own.

[@TheChroniclesofAzeroth]

The previous reply has described the situation quite accurately, and I usually don't feel the need to defend my use of AI in my work. However, I'd like to elaborate further. There are numerous reasons to incorporate AI into one's creative process. For me, AI acts as an extension of my efforts, not a replacement. I specifically use AI to narrate and re-write the stories in my videos due to personal reasons or preferences that make it challenging for me to do this myself. This technology enables me to create content that I otherwise wouldn't have been able to produce. My goal is to immerse those as passionate about this game as I am into its diverse stories and hidden history. Whether or not this involves AI should not detract from that objective. At the end of the day, I, as a real person, have to draft the script, gather and record gameplay footage, and edit everything using high end hard/software to deliver the highest quality possible. I wouldn't expect any less from myself. This process requires money, time and effort, which I am more than willing to invest, That being said, not everything works for everyone, and everyone has different preferences, which is completely fine. To each their own. :)

[@gabaryna99]

This is written by an AI right haha
