You speed across the landscape for several minutes. On the last curve of the road, you see a sanctum much like the one you recently visited. This one looks new though. As you approach, you see that there are several Blood Elves in and around the structure. Outer guards notice you and nod before returning to their vigil. Inside, you see 3 robed elves, possibly Magisters. They notice you as well and cease their talking, waiting for you to approach.

After a while, Athaniar lands and slides off the griffin, holding it’s reins lightly.
Greetings. I am Athaniar Dawnblade, and I have been sent here on a mission by Magister Darenis.May I know who you three are?
Jul 11, 2019 2:49 am
The middle one steps forward, "Greetings, Athaniar Dawnblade, I am Magister Kaendris. These are my associates, Magisters Idonis and Quallestis." He motions to the other males to his left and right, respectively. They nod in acknowledgement. Kaendris has pale blonde hair that freely flows down his shoulders. His robes are red and black with white borders. Idonis has golden hair in a single-tie ponytail in mostly red robes. Quallestis has short, spiky blonde hair. He wears blue and yellow-gold robes.
"Since you are sent by Magister Darenis, it would seem he has made some progress. It would appear the time to move forward is now." Kaendris returns to his initial position, and Magister Idonis steps forward. "I will get right to the point. You are here to help rid this land of the Scourge and the taint of the Dead Scar, and restore this forest to the glory befitting Quel'thalas. Why else would you be sent to us. In the years that we Blood Elves retook and mostly rebuilt Silvermoon City, the Scourge were busy entrenching themselves here. They built a fortress, Deatholme. That is our final target, but to reach it we must destroy 2 other targets: the ziggurats. They are powered by a pair of ancient elven artifacts. Return them to us so that we may restore them from their twisted state."

OOC:
That's quite alright. I've been working extra lately because my boss is on vacation. Reply when you're able.

Athaniar nodded.
I understand. Where might these artifacts be found?
He then inquired as he looked at the elves before him.
Are they in scourge territory...?
Jul 21, 2019 1:15 pm
They nod grimly. "Yes, but they are not too deep into their territory. Not like Deatholme. All we know is the artifacts lie inside the ziggurats. There are two. One for each structure. We presume they would be centrally located and guarded. Shorel'aran (farewell)"
Jul 24, 2019 11:45 pm
Athaniar nods and bows.
I understand. I shall be on my way then.
The male bowed once again before he turned to head back to his mount, eager to fly off again and finish his duty quickly.

You speed off toward the Dead Scar. Soon enough you come to the edge of the tainted ground that refused to support live. Rocky and barren, the too-dark soil is dry and well worn from the endless marching of the Scourge in their trek through these lands to the Sunwell.
Immediately you see a trio of skeletons marching their way through the Dead Scar, a patrol they will act out for eternity should no one stop them.
OOC:
If you stay put, the skeletons will pass you by soon enough, though they may spot you if you don't take cover.

OOC:
sorry for the delay! Fell sick :(
Athaniar narrows his eyes.
Better to sneak past so I won’t raise an alarm... He thinks to himself as he scurries for a hiding place, diving behind a nearby rock.
Jul 30, 2019 11:34 pm
OOC:
All good.
The trio of skeletons pass by unaware of your presence. They soon go so far as to not able to see you at all with their never-ending forward stare.
OOC:
Oh, I forgot to mention, go ahead and level up to level 3 now.
Aug 1, 2019 11:02 pm
OOC:
alrighty :) will update my sheet when i get back home :)
Athaniar then begins to creep along, heading towards where he feels his target woud be. As he does so, he looks around, trying to spot anything.
OOC:
do i needa do checks?
Aug 4, 2019 8:47 pm
OOC:
When in doubt, go ahead and roll. If it wasn't necessary, I won't penalize you. :)
After coming out of hiding, you easily spot the ziggurats. They lie on opposite sides of the Dead Scar. Before you take another step, you hear a new sound in the usually-quiet forest. A bird call that doesn't belong. You look around to see a fellow blood elf high up in a tree nearby looking at you. With the look on their face, it would seem they were the source of the odd bird call. Carefully and quietly, the blood elf climbs down the tree. He wears dark leather armor with a pair of daggers on his hips and a shortbow across his back. Once on the ground, he looks around - he seems to be the parnoid type - and pulls back his hood to reveal short black hair. He looks uneasy but friendly enough. "Are you hunting the Scourge?" He speaks in hushed tones, making eye contact but routinely looking around as well.

Athaniar nods.
I am. Are you? he asked, looking the male up and down.
Who are you and who do you report to? he asked.

"My name is Tahlik Glimmerblade. I'm here for similar reasons as you, and I'm more of an independent agent." He looks around again. "Our odds of succeeding increase if we work together. What do you say?"
Aug 6, 2019 12:02 pm
The ziggurat?
Athaniar asked.
May I ask what you wish to do with it?
Aug 6, 2019 12:52 pm
"I wish to weaken the Scourge. They have too much power. They should have been pushed back by now, but those ziggurats are helping them. Now are we going to do this or am I on my own?"
Aug 12, 2019 8:21 am
Athaniar takes a breath before he nods.
Fine. Lead the way. he gestured.
Aug 12, 2019 10:24 am
He nods curtly before carefully advancing. Staying on the outside of the Dead Scar, you approach the ziggurat from the side. At it's entrance, you see a pair of skeletons guarding the doorway. Tahlil stops to observe, hiding behind trees.
"One for each of us, it would appear. Are you ready?" He asks, indicating you to go first as he draws his daggers.
OOC:
If you choose to advance, you can reach then quickly enough, so make any relevant rolls.
Aug 19, 2019 12:06 am
OOC:
srry, been rlly busy
The male then crouched down and looked out, nodding.
Fine. Let’s go.
He said, standing up and charging.
