Following the Second War, Borlox was sent through the Dark Portal as part of the Alliance Expedition, and was stationed out in the barren wasteland of Shadowmoon Valley, where he helped to build and then defend the Wildhammer Stronghold, under the command of Kurdran Wildhammer, which formed a strategic base for the Alliance forces who laid siege to the Black Temple. With the advent of the Cataclysm, Borlox, along with almost all other members of the Earthen Ring were recalled to Azeroth by the Elder Council and has had several tours of duty in Deepholm and Vash'Jir.
