Tales of Aerozoth: Of the Knight Dragore and the Retaking of Stormwind
Chapter 1
He stood on the hill over looking the city. Flames licked the edges of the stone wall as Stormwind slowly burnt itself to ashes. Sir Dragore crumbled to the ground on his knees, how had it come to this? Not five months before the Horde was in full retreat and Stormwind had laughed at the idea of any Horde army successfully invading the City. The bilious smoke seemed to mock that very statement as it rapidly fed into the air. Stormwind would never be the same again. Sir Dragore cringed in pain again as his side bled yet more; he had suffered grievous wounds in the battle. His horse had been slain in battle it would be a long crawl to the fall back point. He hoped others had survived the battle.
Two Hours later Dragore reached the fall back point that had been set up Four miles outside Stormwind. Dragore stood up and walked into the camp with a slight limp. As he limped into the camp he was astounded to see so few, (How could an army as grand as ours be so quickly destroyed?). Just then he spotted his senior officer up ahead, maybe not all things were as bleak as he thought. His senior officer spotted him before he could greet him. Lt. Gen “berserker” Benson Jumped to his feet and ran to Dragore and grabbed him in a bear hug. Dragore! It is good to see you are still alive my friend! Sir how bad is it? Dragore asked? Not good as Benson’s mood quickly changed from one of joy to deep despair. The Horde attacked us bad and very decisively, we barely had enough time to mount a defense as it was. They knocked out our scouts so neither Darnasuss or Ironforge will know of the attack yet. Dragore snapped to attention, Sir I would like to lead the group going to Ironforge. Benson appeared to be deep in thought and Dragore wondered if Benson had even heard him. Yes but do you even know if your team survived? Asked Benson. Yes I have received reports that 9 of my team members have survived Dragore said with some sadness. Benson’s voice lowered in tone “Did Sar-“, “No” Dragore said, My wife was not among the survivors. “I’m so sorry” Benson said, “yet another reason to rid this land of the Horde”. Benson stood and Saluted Dragore, “Gen Dragore your mission should you choose to accept it is to gather your team and mount an expedition to Ironforge to see we can acquire help to regain Stormwind”. Dragore stood and saluted “Yes Sir! You have my trust, I will complete this for you!”.
