Quel’thalas:
The Darkfallen that once served Vorath continue to operate despite the San’layn’s demise**. Multiple threats are being investigated within the region. Two Thalassian vessels along with their crews have gone missing yet seem to be briefly popping up in ports around the Eastern Kingdoms before vanishing once more, with locals describing the crew as pale, some with red eyes.
The Eastweald:
Argent Apothecaries have finally managed to produce a viable cure for the specific strain of plague that afflicts the living in Andorhal**, finally bringing relief to the city and hope that life will return to normal once more. While the death toll ultimately reached seven, with luck the cure will assist in full recoveries to those ill and prevent further loss of life.
Alterac & Hillsbrad
A series of urgent advisories have been dispatched across most of southern Lordaeron by the Argent Crusade. These missives, similar to the ones sent that identified and described the Cultist Masters that escaped Scholomance, instead provide what known information the Coalition possesses on the three humans and one half-elf wanted on suspicion of conspiracy with the Cult, and affiliation with the Scarlet order. An additional set of missives have been released far more widely across most of Lordaeron and even into Quel’thalas, one that identifies Malachai aka Malek by description with names and aliases, wanted for conspiracy and affiliation with the Cult and Darkfallen involved in assaulting Quel’thalas. Within the same missive, a description of another individual and call for all information or sightings.
Malachai ala Malek D'Zhaeri:
Void or Shadow Corrupted ‘Sin’dorei’
Skin of a greyish hue.
Embedded in the flesh of both arms, chitin-like shards of obsidian occult objects.
Facial scarring around lips and mouth.
Eyes jaundiced-like whites and a crimson, spiraling iris.
Female Thalassian - Person of Interest:
Pale with her hair long and white.
Eyes of burning purple.
Appearance of undead/darkfallen.
Ashen/Gray skin tone.
Arathi & Wetlands:
The civilian population of the small Alliance camp near the western shore of Wetlands has been returned after a rather harrowing experience involving a darkfallen that enthralled the populace, forcing them to excavate corpses from nearby gnoll burial mounds and human and dwarven graveyards. While in Arathi, the ongoing struggle against anti-Forsaken propaganda continues to be waged. For every human death in Andorhal to the north, groups have gathered and demonstrated in the town square. Calls to ‘Remember Blythe’ or ‘Avenge the Plagued’ have been frequently heard and general discontent within the civilians of the region continues to be an issue. SI:7 and 7th Legion reports now officially acknowledge Blythe as a conspirator, which has gone a long way to dissuade additional military forces from active and visible participation. Concern remains, however, that there may still be some quiet sympathizers for the Scarlets that have yet to be exposed.
Northeron (Twilight Highlands):
A short but intense quaking of the ground shook the region, felt strongest in Arathi, Wetlands, and the Loch and Northern Badlands, but still rumbled as far away as the Eastweald to the north and Burning Steppes to the south and Khaz Modan to the west.** Within Northeron old crag scars from the Cataclysm erupted once more with dark energies that simultaneously sparked and shimmered with the golds and blues of Azerite founts. The energies from this polluted and tainted Azerite are still being cautiously sampled and examined by Dragonmaw and Wildhammer forces in the region. A dark pillar of strange energy rises once more from the long thought abandoned grounds of the Cult and their Bastion of Twilight and violent cascades of dark, violet lightning seem to create a perimeter that is unwise to approach around the hills.
Duskwood & Deadwind:
Anarchy! Bedlam! The Dark Riders appear in conflict with each other.* An unprecedented thing to witness. While details remain sparse, whatever force of San’layn or darkfallen that has found access into the Tower seems to have swayed at least a single Dark Rider to their control as it has been witnessed combatting another. All the while, the Plague Wyrm continues to circle the fog veiled skies within the Pass. Plans are coming together quickly to advance on the Tower, however, with Coalition and locals from Duskwood working cooperation to see the region restored to ‘normal’.
The Swamp & Blasted Lands:
The dense veil of fog that creeps out of Deadwind Pass now shrouds the Swamp all the way over the Sunken Temple, and within the Blasted Lands all the way to the Dark Portal.** In both regions the fog barely offers ten yards of visible distance. Within the Blasted Lands the fog settles over the low lying ground. Heading to higher elevations, such as Netherguard’s bluff or the hills behind the Dark Portal one just observes a sea of gray and white, only the high hilltops ascending from the fog as if they were islands, from coast to cliffs, pass to portal. The south of Blasted Lands remains unaffected. Most of the far east of the Swamp and north past Marshtide are similarly unaffected.
