xxxiii - Backdate to yesterday. FINALLY GOT SOMETHING UP :C

[darknessb4me]

I haven't slept in three days and we still lost Hearthglen. I don't know what got to my reinforcements; probably the undead. They're ... everywhere. I think I'm seeing them when I shut my eyes now, which, as you can imagine, is just so fun.

Oh thank god, someone with initiative. [Nickis been scanning the feeds since he woke up] Do you need help? Anything would be better then this drivel

[brbculling]

Absolutely. What floor are you on?

[beyondxtime]

The bland and depressing one [He let out a laugh, that could have been any of them] Five, I believe. Theres a list. I'll assume you're on the floor with the door-shrapnel

[brbculling]

[Eyerolls don't transmit well through audio.]

I'm on the first floor, there's a number on the door. Can you meet me here? I'm going to try to get to the roof. There aren't any windows, so if we head down we might just be going further underground.

Most understated reaction ever.

[most_feared]

[Sigh.] Hold on. I'll go find Tirion.

[brbculling]

Don't bother, he's not recognized by the Crown as a paladin. Who are you?

[most_feared]

[Shit. This is fucked up.] He's the only one here that's familiar enough with your world to help you.

My name is "K". And I'm just here to keep anyone from getting hurt.

[brbculling]

My world.

[bybloodandhonor]

[Wonderful. History in the making. And he gets to be the bearer of bad news to he who would be the traitor prince. There is no way to put this in any sort of good way, so the honest route it is.]

Prince Arthas, I'm afraid there is no way to immediately send you back to Lordaeron.

[brbculling]

[He...doesn't recognize you with the beard, Tirion. :/ And the, you know. Oldness.

You do have his full attention, though.]

Why?

[bybloodandhonor]

[And stress. He did finish going grey while in exile.]

There are no mages aboard that can send you home, and there are powerful magics at work here.

[brbculling]

I'd gathered. That's...not acceptable. At all. Are you aware of what's happening, paladin?

[deepdowndark]

I don't think we can get out of here.

But I can understand war, and if you need to get back... there ought to be a way.

[brbculling]

[He smiles briefly.]

There are unfortunately a lot of lives resting on my returning in time to do what needs to be done.

[deepdowndark]

And how long do you have?

[brbculling]

I really can't be sure. I just want to get back as soon as it's possible.

Private

[timesbureaucrat]

[Narvin never thought he'd feel sympathy for Arthas of all people, but this is sounding just a little too familiar for comfort.]

If I could get you home, I would. I'm in the same situation you are.

[He decides not to send anything even as vaguely personal and compassionate as that, because he doesn't know whether or not Arthas will remember this later and doesn't want to take the chance.]

The Admiral is the person in charge. He's the only one who could send you home.

Private

[brbculling]

Then why isn't he answering?

I've heard this before. It sounds conveniently unproveable.
