Winter Veil celebrates the renewing of the year and the coming of Greatfather Winter to give gifts to the adventurers of Azeroth. The festival is the Warcraft counterpart of Christmas.
Greatfather Winter is visiting the cities of Ironforge and Orgrimmar, courtesy of Smokywood Pastures. And throughout Azeroth, it is the season to be jolly!
The later seasons of Azeroth are marked as a time of change in many cultures. The dwarves and the tauren especially look to the legend of the coming Winter Veil – the blanketing of the land in snow, thus heralding a time of renewal – as a time for celebration. Though the understanding of the legends that the races of Azeroth share are not dissimilar, the ways they choose to acknowledge them are as diverse as the races themselves. The term “Winter Veil” is said to stem from a supernatural being referred in many cultures to as Greatfather Winter. As he would walk the land late in the seasons, winter itself would be his billowing cloak. In his wake was the blanketing of the land in snow, and thus it is said that Greatfater Winter would cast his wintry veil over the land. Though parts of Azeroth may lie in snow, it gives the land time for rebirth and renewal.
Ever consumed with the research of their origins, the dwarves choose to celebrate the season as a recognition of Greatfather Winter himself. They consider him to be the personification of one of the ancients of Azeroth – the Titans. Much as they claim lineage in one degree or another to these mystical beings, they consider their snowy home of Dun Morogh as the prime example of Greatfather Winter’s blessings. The holiday was introduced to the Alliance at large by Muradin Bronzebeard.
The tauren and their shamanistic understanding of winter, along with their recent emergence into druidic endeavors, fit in well with the legend of Winter Veil. They focus almost entirely on the renewing aspects of the lore, however, leaving legend worship to those races (as they view it) less in tune with the nature of things. Many tauren choose this time as the right time to give thanks for the blessings of their new home in Mulgore.

  1. Merry Winter Veil!
    Thank you for still being here with me.
    I almost did not make the video this year either. For context, this video should've been published last year, but I couldn't finish it in time. I wanted to make a video like those which you put on TV for Xmas, with a fireplace frame, for 10 hours, but I had second thoughts and this is the result. The playlist was longer, but I did not include some tracks because I couldn't generate in time more footage.

  14. Wonderful video, exactly what I needed for a peaceful cup of tea in the morning before everyone wakes up and the Christmas tsunami starts all over 😉😉🎄🎁
    Merry Christmas from Germany everyone!

  19. This is one of my favorite pieces of video game Christmas music. When I worked at a game store, every Christmas I'd have the Yule log fire video play on the tv and this was in my holiday music mix whenever I'd be at work.
