The Cabal is a dark cult that is a sub-organization of the Shadow Council which operates exclusively in Outland. The organizations members have holdings in the Bone Wastes and external ruins of Auchindoun in Terokkar Forest and in the Shadow Labyrinth of Auchindoun. These cultists are said to have summoned the evil entity, Murmur which in turn caused the explosion which destroyed the necropolis of Auchindoun and flattened the surrounding forest, creating the Bone Wastes.
The evil being they summoned proved too hard to control and many are now fleeing Auchindoun. Several have gathered in and around the Shadow Tomb where they are storing artifacts of power they took from Auchindoun. Among these are the sacred [Drape of Arunen], [Gavel of K'alen], and [Scroll of Atalor] which belonged to powerful draenei patriarchs of each item's respective namesake. The Cabal has also taken Akuno the Broken, friend of Mekeda, hostage within the Shadow Tomb.
