**xlAnonym0uslx** · 11-12-2008

This is an Alliance leveling guide.

The sprawling Borean Tundra lies at the far southwestern tip of Northrend, the icy continent also known as the roof of the world. Alliance settlers built the Valiance Keep at southeast of Borean Tundra and preparing to launch an offensive against the Lich King and his undead armies. You can take a ship from Stormwind Harbor (north of the Stormwind City) to Valiance Keep

Most of the quests in Borean Tundra are easy to get and simple to do, you can earn lots of quick experiences here, although I have completed all the quests I can find here but there still 5 quests lost for Alliance players, I guess blizzard will add the last 5 quest for this achievement in further version.
