Ley Lines have specific starting and ending points, which are marked by Dark Stone Totems. Between these two points you will also find Dark Stone Piles which are probably the result of this magical force. The known Ley Lines all start in the Last Sanctum and go towards Banuta, Vengoth and Krailos.

  • A ley line is a path of magic. They can be left by magi for navigation, they can be corpse roads for ghosts, or they can be the paths spirits typically follow. The ley is the flow of magic around the world (through the universe), therefore a ley line is any line drawn in that flow as if through foam or oil on water.
  • Great lines of power, known as ley lines, crisscross the lands of Azeroth. These lines of magic are often harnessed for mighty magical purposes, from the creation of moonwells to (some say) the powerful glowing dome of Dalaran and for the portal spells created by Mages. Ley lines exist all over Azeroth, and are sources of deep and natural magic. Those with great magical power and ley walkers seek out these sites. A community which sits on top of a convergence of two or more lines of magical energy is called a "ley line nexus".
  • Ley lines are made up of various kinds of energy; whatever kinds are more prominent in the line affects its properties. There are, for example, ley lines with defensive, disruptive, or restorative energy. They can be tapped into by magic users to draw power from them. Using a ley line is the most powerful means of employing magic known to mortal wizards. Many Ways to the Nevernever run from confluence to confluence. A wizard can feel their power when they walk over them. The Great Lakes region has a great deal of ley lines, which accounts for the heightened supernatural activity of the area.
  • Ley lines were cracks and bubbles of unimaginable levels of psi energy. They were one of the last surviving magicks of the universe that had not been cast out by the Gallifreyans when they became the Time Lords. This was because they were the least impossible sort of magic and the closest to actual science. A residue of psi energy formed a network of ley lines which stretched forth across the galaxy in improbable directions.
  • The ley lines are a network of courses of power that flow both within and without, surrounding the world of Lore. Connecting to both the Void and to the Core of Lore itself, they channel the energy of those places and allow for the use of magic, according to Diviara Celegra (Facing the Darkness).

abstract
  • Ley lines were cracks and bubbles of unimaginable levels of psi energy. They were one of the last surviving magicks of the universe that had not been cast out by the Gallifreyans when they became the Time Lords. This was because they were the least impossible sort of magic and the closest to actual science. A residue of psi energy formed a network of ley lines which stretched forth across the galaxy in improbable directions. The Time Lords had long been aware of ley lines in times that predated the various Wars that they had fought. As they attempted to discard irrational magick in favour of rational science, a number of citizens objected; so the Time Lords turned the psi lines into weapons. One such waypoint of the ley lines was the planet Iphigenia that served as the basis for the Time Lords' Distant Early Warning line. This stretched through the galaxy and was studded with various receivers that were the size of mountains or small moons. Great parabolic dishes, disguised as craters, monitored the ley lines for eruptions of psi energy from beyond Gallifrey. (PROSE: So Vile a Sin)
  • Ley lines are made up of various kinds of energy; whatever kinds are more prominent in the line affects its properties. There are, for example, ley lines with defensive, disruptive, or restorative energy. They can be tapped into by magic users to draw power from them. Using a ley line is the most powerful means of employing magic known to mortal wizards. Some might be more stable which means that it is better to use when a stable flow of energy is needed. Others might have destructive energies, which means it is better to use in battle. The island Demonreach has a ley line that has certain malevolent properties. This makes people who go near the island unconsciously veer away. Many Ways to the Nevernever run from confluence to confluence. A wizard can feel their power when they walk over them. The Great Lakes region has a great deal of ley lines, which accounts for the heightened supernatural activity of the area. Ley lines with heavy concentrations of dark energy run through both North and South Manitou Island in the north of Lake Michigan, and the secret islands in the lake's center, including Demonreach. Another ley line runs directly beneath the Field Museum in Chicago. The ley lines that intersect deep in the ground under the Auld Rock and the White Council headquarters contain a "staggering amount of raw power" and it's one of the world's largest Ley line convergences. These Ley lines are used in order to create super powered ward without a threshold covering the entire building. Presumably the wards constantly draw from the ley lines if strained. Chicago is a crossroads both physical and metaphysical with ley lines having dozens of confluences that either run through town or nearby. Another large confluences of ley lines is located at Chichén Itzá, in Mexico. It's one of the biggest in the world. The Red Court stashed their ritual gear and artifacts near ley line confluences.

  • Great lines of power, known as ley lines, crisscross the lands of Azeroth. These lines of magic are often harnessed for mighty magical purposes, from the creation of moonwells to (some say) the powerful glowing dome of Dalaran and for the portal spells created by Mages. Ley lines exist all over Azeroth, and are sources of deep and natural magic. Across the face of the world there flow lines of power - patterns of magical energy that carry vitality of the lands of Azeroth through them, like blood vessels in a creature. These lines of power are recognized subtly by every culture; the races of Azeroth identify them as those places sacred to the Light, the chosen locations of moonwells, haunted places where the power of death has tainted the flow of energy, and natural sites overflowing with elemental power that are sacred to shamans. Most cultures, however, only really focus on those places where the lines converge and meet, seeking to tap the most power from them. Those who seek to understand and master runic power understand that the convergences are not the only important part of this power - the patterns formed by the lines themselves are important as well. These patterns, which resemble letters in a strange alphabet, are called runes. There are lines of power that run across the land in a select few areas, but these are not the only lines - simply the most obvious. Inside of these thick and corded ropes of power, there are also tiny, web-thin lines that run between these great ley lines, connecting them in a vast net of pulsing, subtle power. Those with great magical power and ley walkers seek out these sites. A community which sits on top of a convergence of two or more lines of magical energy is called a "ley line nexus".

During the conflict between the Paladin Order and the Necromancer Order, the ley lines used for the skills of each respective class were irreparably altered and damaged by the war. The connections of those lines to the mana core, and indeed to the elemental planes, have been so irrevocably severed that Paladins and Necromancers are to search entirely new avenues to produce their magic.
