New Entry; Duty

Nov 13, 2008 10:29

I stopped over in the Crossroads last night.  The innkeeper woke me this morning with a letter -- I'll never quite understand how the letters keep finding me.  It must be something to do with the goblins tinkering with the mailboxes.

It was another letter from Z.  A recent one, not one that's been floating around after me for months.  I... I had thought that I was prepared for this.  If the melancholy that I've been feeling since reading it is any indication, I was mistaken.

They're going to Northrend, where the Lich King's forces are massed.  I can only hope that they stay safe.  I sincerely believe that they'll look after each other far better than Z. and I ever did.  At least, hopefully, they won't be making spirited attempts on each others' lives.

I think I'll head out and patrol the Barrens for any signs of Scourge.  It's probably pointless, but the Dawn doesn't much care as long as I'm doing something for their cause.

((Written later in the day.))

... Apparently the Dawn does care.  I returned to Crossroads and yet another letter was waiting for me.  This one had the official seal of the Argent Dawn on it, however, and contained orders for my next posting.

Northrend.  They're sending me out to Northrend.  Joy.  Rapture.

Perhaps I can stay out of Z. and Carsis' way, at least.  From what I've heard, Northrend is a rather big place.

... This can't be right.  How can I report to someone in Dalaran when it's disappeared?
