The fire spreads..
Still
overwhelmed with things to
do, places to
see and enemies to
kill.
Feignheart and myself come across our, possibly, long
lost relation. While
pondering the sights of
Stormwind we came across another fellow
Worgen Hunter with a very distinctive
name -
"FEIGNdead". Now who knows, there may be
more of us! Anyway, on with the
show..

While on our
search for the next
quest for
adventure, we once again met ourselves glancing at the
good'old Heroes Board! It was at this point that we were informed of another
threat arising in a distant land. Very
brief quest description -
[Hero's Call: Mount Hyjal]. However there was a great
battle being waged in the far reaches of
Mount Hyjal. Something about
Deathwing and his army of
minions making an assault against the '
World Tree' and causing complete
devastation throughout.
Though,
before heading directly to the
battle at hand, we were sent through a
portal within
Stormwind Keep to the
Druid haven of
Moonglade. This
tranquil mini-zone, filled with the
magic of the
Night Elves in all there natural and
spiritual glory seemed a world apart from the
chaos and
destruction. Apparently our stay was to be short-lived as we were soon enough given
word about a being of great
power, known to most as..
Ragnoros. Almost
instantly we were sent
swooping off on the back of a
dragon with all due
speed, to
Mount Hyjal.

Upon gliding
swiftly into the zone, we come to see that our destination was nothing but a
raging inferno. Then finding ourselves in the very
centre of the
chaos, of which we merely
escaped by the skins of our
teeth. Coming into contact, very close contact, with
Deathwing the Destroyer and his newly reborn elemental
fire lord
Ragnoros. After a
panic driven
flee, we took
haste and made our way to
Nordrassil, The World Tree, to alert and
warn the ally forces of the land.
Passing into the
safety of the
World Tree and
weaving in between its many winding
roots, we felt
greeted with a breath of
life and
vitality. A
feeling that all we knew was at
stake, but being in the presence of such a
wonder really
belittled the situation for a short period. This was to be a
very short period, for we were soon given our objectives. Our mission in the zone, despite a number of various quests, was simple.
Protect the world tree
at all costs. No matter how
unclear it's very importance actually was to us.
There is no mercy in the path of fire
Carrying on. With this being a slightly
lower level zone, the
mobs did prove to go down quite
easily. Though as always, I remained on
guard and
prepared for anything which could come our way. Especially with the ongoing
attacks from the
Twilights Hammer and
enraging elementals.
However this allowed us to spend more time
focusing on our
surroundings and really taking in/
appreciating the zone.

| Ragnoros, the Lord of Fire |
After some
sniffing around we came across a very
curious Gnome and his partner. They
instructed us to take their
underground transport machine, to a place called
Blackrock Mountain. Apparently there was
suspicion around the activities of particular
elementals within the mountain, of which they assumed the involvement of
Ragnoros himself. Into the
Caverns of
Blackrock we go. Existing in what seemed to be a relatively active
volcano, this
short and sweet instance leads us in
pursuit of an ally who seems to have gone on a '
Hulk-like'
rampage ahead of us. Towards the end, and after a parade of bosses, we find that the
Twilights Hammer have been working
dark and
powerful magic to
transform and create
monstrosities from those they have
captured, to
empower themselves.
Back to the
fight, and we really get right into this
war against the
Twilight. We are rested with the great
responsibility of rallying the
ancients and
demi-gods from their
eternal slumber in the
Emerald Dream, to join us in the
defence of the world tree and to secure the
fate of
Azeroth. This also led
Feignheart and myself to join and
infiltrate the ranks of the Twilight Hammer to cause complete
disruption and
unveil there foul plans. Later going
head-to-head with
Ragnoros, aiding the ancients, and pushing him back into the
firelands..
For now..
ACHIEVEMENT GALORE!
Along our
travels through
Mt.Hyjal, we have
rescued a bundle of
bunnies and
squirrels from the vast
fires of the land, gained a new
[Blue Mini Jouster] Companion and seemingly misplaced (
Vendored)
Feignhearts melee weapon. The world is at a
peak for
adventurers and it is down to us to go and
chase them...
