The [[Dreadlord]] of the [[Nathrezim]] '''Detheroc''' and his two brothers, [[Balnazzar]] and [[Varimathras]], were left to watch over the Legion's holdings in [[Lordaeron]] when [[Archimonde]] and the main force of the Legion left for [[Kalimdor]] to deal with the fleeing [[orcs]] and [[humans]], as well as the [[night elves]] who had defeated them in ages past. Detheroc began to notice however that much time had passed without hearing a word from Archimonde.

The '''Molten Front''' is a daily zone located within the [[Firelands]].<ref>[http://us.battle.net/wow/en/blog/2685001 Patch 4.2 Preview: The Regrowth and Molten Front Daily Quest Hubs]</ref> Briefly glimpsed during the [[Elemental Bonds questline]], it can only be accessed upon completing {{questlong|neutral|85|Calling for Reinforcements}}, which requires 20 [[Mark of the World Tree|Marks of the World Tree]].

[[Arthas]] stormed into the palace and informed them that their Legion was defeated, and that their deaths would seal that fate. But they fled before he could strike. Hiding in [[Tirisfal Glades]], they coerced [[Sylvanas]] into assisting them, and planned a coup to take back Lordaeron and rule the newly coined [[Plaguelands]]. Detheroc and his brothers assumed control of the Capital City and ambushed Arthas, but the resilient [[Death Knight]] battled his way through their forces and fled across the sea, to his master in [[Northrend]].

With Arthas gone, Detheroc and the other Dreadlords could concentrate their power in Lordaeron. But when Varimathras asked Sylvanas to join their new order, she refused, butchered his forces, and turned him to her own side. Detheroc was not so easily defeated. He used his powers of domination to control the human general, [[Garithos]], and when Sylvanas launched her next attack upon him, he turned Garithos and his forces loose on her. But with Varimathras at her side, Sylvanas managed to keep Garithos at bay as she stormed into Detheroc's base and "tore him to bloody shreds" as Sylvanas put it.

Like much of the Firelands, the area is a fiery barren wasteland filled with volcanoes, fields of fire, and pools of lava. To the far east the main area of the [[Firelands (instance)|Firelands]] can be seen.

''It is possible that his death was an illusion. Among all the dreadlords who were left in charge of Lordaeron, Detheroc appeared to have had the greatest psychic powers as he was able to enslave Garithos' forces with his telepathy alone. If Detheroc yet lives, he has shown no sign, hinting at a more covert scheme than Balnazzar's. However, it has not yet been revealed how Balnazzar survived his execution, so it's just as possible that Detheroc is indeed dead for good.''
