   Once you set out to the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, it does not take long before you gain access to the city of Dalaran. There the Violet Hold is a litter instance you can enter. It is an instance in much the same vein as the Stockades in Stormwind, it is the cities prison. Similar to the Stockades, the instance has been overrun by the bad guys. In this case the bad guys are the blue 7 who are trying to over run the guards by attacking and setting inmates free in an attempt to break out into the city.
   In the World of Warcraft, there are many new instances: Wrath of the Lich King, There are many new instances in the World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK), some need to travel a long distance to reach, others are located right underneath your nose.
As above, the instance itself can be found right inside the city of Dalaran. When you first find it, it will be locked. However, all you need to do is to be level 75 and accept a simple quest and you will gain access. Once inside you are greeted by a stark looking prison hall. There is a large common area in the centre with cells along the ground and balcony level. In the cells are various prisoners locked behind magical barriers. Kirin Tor guards are fighting off blue dragonflight attackers on the steps in front of you.
The main hall, the entire instance consists of balcony and cells. That's right, one room is all you get here. Once you talk to the NPC at the front door as you walk in the instance starts, and it is very similar to the Caverns of Time: Black Morass instance. The instance is comprised of 18 waves of enemies that spawn through portals that appear around the area. The 6th and 12th waves are not spawned but instead they are two random mini-bosses released from the cells. The 18th wave is the final boss, the blue dragon Cyanigosa.
To begin with the instance, you simply talk to Lieutenant Sinclari at the door and she will pull the guards out and lock and seal the door behind her. Portals start opening and the waves then start, at which point you must start defending the door's seal. Each portal will spawn one of three possible guardians: a caster, a warrior, or a group of four elites. Additionally the guardians will occasionally spawn other creatures that will make their way to the doorway and try to break the seal.
For each wave, the tanks job is to grab the guardians and hold them. DPS should work on the guardian as much as possible, while switching over to any additional creatures that are spawned. The additional creatures (adds) should go down fairly quickly with even just a single DPSer on them. If the person assigned to the adds gets behind they should call for help. You have a few minutes to deal with each wave before the next portal opens. If you are quick you will have time to rest, eat and drink in between waves, if not, you could end up with multiple portals open at a single time.
The Violet Hold is a great little instance for something to do to gain experience or just practice your class. Being located right in the city of Dalaran, and being insanely fast to complete, it makes it an ideal distraction from questing. Any time you pop into the city between the levels of 74 and 76 you can find a group and run through it to gain a quick bit of experience. It also has some pretty good gear as drops.
