The Council of the Black Harvest is a council made up of six of the greatest warlocks that sought the powers of their defeated foes. These powers would then be shared with each other and their own sects[1] to further aid their kind against any future threats to Azeroth. The order was brought together by Kanrethad, after the fall of Deathwing.[2]
Nearly each member had witnessed one of the great threats to Azeroth:
- Kanrethad was there when Illidan was destroyed, he shared the secrets of his transformation.
- Ritssyn was in the Firelands when was Ragnaros vanquished.
- Shinfel aided in the death of Cho'gall
- Zinnin had witnessed Deathwing being unmade
After much bickering and debates it was decided that each warlock would be partnered with another and obtain new powers. Although each warlock in the council did not like each other, they knew what they would be doing would greatly benefit them all. To make sure greed did not set in with individual members, it was agreed that any warlock that breaks the contract, fails to return, or returns alone the others would strike them down and banish their soul forever. Ritssyn and Zinnin were sent to Sulfuron Keep while Shinfel and Zelfrax hunted down the remaining members of the Twilight's Hammer and persuaded them to reveal anything they learned.
