Alas, Outland

[Leothiel]

A long blond-haired blood elf mage rides up to Nathanos Blightcaller one last time. He handed a book to Blightcaller saying. "Here is the commendation by the Dark Lady that you wanted recovered. Apparently, those rangers did not like the truth." With that, the mage felt a surge of power that told him something. It was the feeling of coming of an age. After a brief visit to a nearby tomb and to Light's Hope Chapel, it was off to Silvermoon City for another round of the most demanding mage training in the realms.

Leothiel had one more stop to make: Orgrimmar. He could have been to Outland days earlier, but he was taking in the beauty of Winterspring at the time. After Winterspring, he took his time to get to the discolored air and landscape of the Eastern Plaugelands. Right then, he cited "When I get my epic land mount." This stop to Orgrimmar provided him the opportunity to upgrade his riding wolf to a swifter wolf, send his auctionable items to his escrow agent, and bank items he will not use for some time. Unsellable items were destroyed immediately. After that, it was a nice lengthy ride from Sunfury Spire to the Dark Portal.

His pulse raced as he headed past Stonard and into the Blasted Lands. Each setting of the paw seemed to slow down as he approached the Dark Portal. When he passed through the Dark Portal and set his eyes on Outland, he knew he was on sacred ground. This was the very ground where his two brothers were last seen and never heard from again.
