Thousands of years ago, this vast desert with rolling sand dunes was once a dense, vibrant jungle, described by Meerah as the jewel of the troll empire. The Zandalari trolls and the snake-like sethrak lived in harmony in this region, and together they worshiped the snake loa Sethraliss.

During the war between the trolls and the aqir roughly 16,000 years ago, the C'Thrax Mythrax the Unraveler was tasked with invading Vol'dun and descended upon the region, slaughtering troll and sethrak alike. Sethraliss sacrificed herself to defeat Mythrax, but not before the C'Thrax was able to destroy the disc at the heart of Atul'Aman. Due to Sethraliss' death and the various cataclysms that occurred in the region as the years progressed, the jungles of Vol'dun were transformed into a vast desert. As a result, most of the trolls abandoned the region. This left only the sethrak, who continued to survive and thrive in Vol'dun, which they considered the holiest of holy grounds.

After witnessing the destruction wrought by Mythrax firsthand, the sethrak knew that something had to be done to prevent anyone from raising the C'Thrax again. Sulthis, Vorrik, and Korthek worked together to seal Mythrax within the great pyramid.

In the present day, Zandalar sends its criminals here to die, and most of them end up perishing. The area is mostly inhabited by Zandalari vagabonds, sethrak, and vulpera. The Ashvane Trading Company has a presence in the southern edge of Vol'dun, mining for Azerite.
