Attacks on Our Leaders Increase

As many of our more capable warriors have ventured forth into Northrend, we have been lax in maintaining our home strength. The Alliance have been awaiting this opportunity. They have staged successful strikes into Thunder Bluff, Silvermoon City, Under City, and even Orgrimmar.

Conjecture exists amongst some of the Kor’kran that in allowing the Death Knights into the Horde, Thrall may have given access to sensitive Horde information to the Alliance. Others have not ruled out Verimathras may be utilizing this as a distraction from his other operations. Suffice to say, it is our lack of experienced defenders that is allowing these incursions into our territory.

Horde attacks on the Alliance capital cities continue to varying degrees of success.

Zajiwa to Throw Gauntlet Down Before the Gates of Orgrimmar

In news of attacks on our capitals, it would seem that Zajiwa of the Smalls Clan desires to bring war to Thrall’s door step. It appears that he was bragging about his plans in the Legerdemain Lounge in Dalaran. With ale goggles on, Zajiwa didn’t happen to know or care that he was in a neutral zone with many Horde illuminaries.

As is the case with all dealings in Dalaran, the Kirin Tor maintained the cities neutrality would not allow the Horde to take him in for questioning. Zajiwa was able to elude Horde spies by going into the Silver Enclave.

Nyx’s Kyok has been drumming up support to be ready to send Zajiwa and all who follow his flag into the Twisting Nether. No doubt, this attack will be unlike any witnessed by the forces of Nyx in recent history.

Bael’spar’s Fashion and Gossip

I am sorry, but my personal life must come before my usual tales. It would seem that forces are allying to stop my goal of restoring Elvish engineering to the state that it once was. While my people were busy dealing with the loss of the Sun Well, the gnomes were absconding with our schematics. Fortunately, they are not so adept at combining arcane force with the whirring gears that our schematics showed them. Thus, all their tech is flawed.

The goblins are the source of some of our advanced designs, but they only know the most basic uses of them. The more difficult stuff will have to be recreated. To that end, I have pooled my resources and began the lengthy process of relearning many of the lost skills. To do this, I needed assistants. Unfortunately, this fell to hiring members of the Steamwheedle Cartel.

In spite of all the contracts that I had Verimathras draw up for me, they manage to find many loop holes to escape doing actual work. Progress is slow. I fear I may come to odds with our little green-skinned friends. Perhaps I can borrow the tailors’ succubus to motivate my assistants.
