Varian was kidnapped by the Black Dragon Onyxia, but he did not rule at such a young age. The original Varian returns, and Onyxia kidnaps Anduin. Original and copy Varian saves Anduin.
Anduin and the Light
Varian, considering Anduin soft-hearted, sends him to Ironforge to learn war skills. In Ironforge, Anduin realized his true calling for the light and began to learn its power and the ways of the Priest. However, Ironforge was soon devastated by earthquakes, and its leader died. Moira then claims the throne and closes the city gates. However, Anduin escapes Ironforge by using the Hearthstone given to him by his aunt, Jaina Proudmoore. Other crucial points of this phase are Anduin’s meeting with Baine of the Horde and Prophet Velen. He reached Draenei’s city, Exodar, as a pupil of Velen.

Sometime later, Anduin was shipwrecked near the mysterious island of Pandaria. Though the agent’s Alliance reaches Pandaria to rescue him, Anduin refuses to return home. He stays in Pandaria and takes lessons from August Celestial Chi-Ji. He also helps Pandarians fight against the Sha, a spirit feeding on negative emotions. In this process, he was mortally wounded by Garrosh Hellscream, war chief of the Horde.
