Many a housewife tale has spoken of the Dusk Fever with fear and, according to said fallacies, has told of its origination in Northrend. Though modern historians, who have checked accounts in both Kul Tiras, Stormwind and even Stonard, have decided that the records suggest its first notable appearance was in Boralus. However, the strain that is notable today seems to have first permeated Elwynn during the time of the First War, and then manifested itself seriously before the Third War. Only sporadic and unusual cases have been reported since, though some apothecaries still warn of the threat of its return.
