A Hunters Rites of Passage - The story of Kandraka's search for the fabled Black Bears of Loch Modan;
Kandraka, a proud Orc Hunter, is continuously teased by other Orcs for his love of plants and picking flowers. Upon hearing of the exploits of his Clan mate Swirlyhunt in taming the legendary Bear "Mange Claw", decided to prove himself to the clan by undertaking just such a journey. But, first he must travel to Orgrimaar, to find the goblin zepplins that will take him across the ocean to another continent. A place where Orcs are persecuted by creatures called Men and Dorfs.
This seems to be the spot, now just to wait for passage.
Boy it seems like a long time waiting...
Kandraka gazes wistfully at the receding images of his beloved Durotaur as he heads off to unknown dangers and certain death.
He arrives at a place called Silverpine Forest, populated with undead mankind. Kandraka does not understand this alliance with these decayed beings, nor does he want to have anything to do with them.
There seems to be a rest stop here along the way called Sepulcher, where Kandraka pauses to chat with a friendly walking corpse who offers rides on bats for an exhorbitant fee.
He is noticing now with his beast senses that the creatures along the road and becoming ever more dangerous, and in fact far too dangerous to do more than run. Reaching a place call the Arathi Highlands his luck in avoiding these creatures comes to and end, and Kandraka's spirit awakens near a place called Tauren Mill. So, he convinces the kindly graveyard angel that it is not yet his time, she ressurects him. Fortunately he in now closer to his goal.
Remembering to use his beast senses again, and by dodging into ponds and rivers to avoid encounters he slowly makes his way south and finds the gates of Hillsbrad, just north of a pleasant place called Stromguard keep.
Kandraka breathes a sigh of relief having successfully outwitted this nasty orge, only who are those men coming down the road?
Kandraka surveys his options, there is death my ogre behind, death by raptor or spiders to the left or right, and coming toward on the road and mounted men. He sees what might be his salvation, an undead Warlock fighting a spider on the left and makes a mad dash to escape the notice of the men on horses. But, before you could shake the snot off a log, those men rushed across the field and splayed Kandraka like a Moonstalker at a troll picnic.
