The Praetorian Alliance had been dissolved. All those who had served as either Praetor or Primus had finally agreed that the Alliance would be better served if it were allowed to pass into the realm of memory. After explaining their reasoning and bidding farewell, these former Praetorian leaders bid farewell to those they had led through a myriad of perilous encounters with some of the most powerful beings in Azeroth.
As the silence stretched on for hours, a few others decided that perhaps it was also time for themselves to retire from the adventuring life, and quietly departed from the gathering. Those that remained began to slowly mingle with each other, reminiscing of battles won, enemies defeated, and friends lost. Some who previously only knew each other only by name discovered that they had a great deal in common, while yet others that had long been fast friends found the bonds of friendship strengthened.
Finally someone addressed what remained of the gathering.
"Friends, the Alliance may be dead, but what the Alliance built will only end if we allow it to. Look at us, friends and fellow warriors, closer to each other now than we were before this ordeal. Being a Praetorian has shaped me into what I am today. It has shaped each and every one of us, for the better I believe. If we retain that in our hearts, then perhaps the Praetorian Alliance will live on in each of us.
"To that end, I propose that we organize ourselves, reborn as the Legio Fenix. We cannot ressurect the Praetorian Alliance, but we can attempt to continue to live by the ideals upon which it was founded. We cannot bring back those friends that have chosen to leave our company, but we can strengthen the ties of friendship amongst ourselves and seek out those who would join our company. We cannot live in the past, but we can work to build a bright and glorious future for Azeroth.
"Join me, and together this new Legion will go forth to defeat those that would enslave or destroy this world. Join me, so that we might better care for and protect each other. Join me, in remembrance of what has brought us here and in hope for what might yet be.
"What say you?"
And so the Legio Fenix was born.

3 Years and Going Strong
It was just over 3 years ago that history was made. On Sat, 17 Jun 2006 09:21:35pm Legio Fenix recorded its very first boss kill - the dreaded black dragon, Onyxia!
Legio Fenix was formed on the server Doomhammer after a guild called Praetorian Alliance disbanded. We grew from a small handful to more than enough to tackle the bosses of the Molten Core, Blackwing Lair, the Temple of Ahn Qiraj, and Naxxramas v1.0. The crusade against the Burning Legion took us to Outland to face the minions of Lady Vashj, Lord Kael'thas and Illidan. More recently we have ventured to the far north, to once again battle the forces of the Lich King and to investigate what those Titans were up to.
In our journeys we've made many new friends, lost old ones, and have been to the farthest reaches of Azeroth. It has been, and continues to be, a fantastic ride. Thank you to everyone who has been a part of making Legio Fenix what it is today!

Hodir is Done!
Another notch on the LF guild belt! Ulduar is a blast (in this case a frozen one!) but nothing will stop us as we take on challenge after challenge. Hodir is only the first of the Keepers to go down!! [Submitted by Kzia]
