Welcome to our video on Dimensius and the Devouring of Karesh!
We know Karesh as a dark, desolate world teetering on the edge of oblivion. But it wasnt always like this! Once, it was a harsh but vibrant world, hosting a worldsoul just like Azeroth, and harboring a people whose technomancy brought wonders.
Until one day... When Dimensius the All-Devouring set his sights on the world for its next meal...
