Spazzle Speaks: Someone Must Have Kicked You Around Some
I just received a message from Lady Liadrin in Silvermoon. As if there wasn’t already enough going on these days, it looks like the Kirin Tor have gone crazy.
After Horde agents captured the Divine Bell from Darnassus, Liadrin says, Jaina Proudmoore determined that the operation had received aid from within the Kirin Tor. She was…none too pleased about that. As a result, she arrested Aethas Sunreaver as a traitor and began a purge of Dalaran that’s been going on for the last few days. The Sunreavers and any Horde citizens in the city are being arrested or driven out. Or worse.
Grand Magister Rommanth recruited the aid of Horde adventurers to try to get as many of their people out of Dalaran as possible. Since then, there’s been a flood of refugees coming into Silvermoon. Liadrin has been helping to coordinate the influx of refugees as they’ve arrived. While most of the arrivals from Dalaran have been Sunreavers – blood elves – there were also other Horde citizens who were driven out. Orcs, trolls, tauren, even a few Forsaken. Liadrin has been working to sort out who will be staying in Silvermoon and who needs to be brought home to Kalimdor.
That’s where we get to her reason for contacting me. To be honest, I was surprised to get a message from her at all, seeing as she’s never actually met me, but I guess she picked up my name somewhere. She says she’s working with Eitrigg to arrange to bring a zeppelin of refugees to Orgrimmar. When she arrives, she wants to meet with as many of Garrosh’s friends as possible. (She can probably use a fairly liberal definition of “friends” and not tax her schedule too much.) She didn’t say what she wants to talk about, only that it’s important. I guess we’ll see once she gets here.
Yay, Liadrin! I’ve missed her.
I know! She’s my C.O. and I haven’t seen her in ages!
Not since that mess at the Sunwell, anyway, and that’s been a couple of years.
He also spelled the Grand Magister’s name wrong. It’s “Rommath”.
Blood elf names are weird to spell. Not nearly enough Z’s.
I get that. Orc names are way too confusing. I can’t even tell between male and female half the time! That’s even when I’m dealing with them face-to-face, too.

((I swear, someday I should do a contest to see how many of these references people can catch…))
((Well, first you’ll have to start referencing decent music. Tom Petty? Really? 😛 ))
Petty is awesome!
(With our luck, the last Sha looks and sounds like Justin Bieber)
((Someone needs to help the singer understand the concept of enunciation. It’s like he’s speaking a foreign language.))
((He needs to learn how to sing, period. He’s whiny, nasally, and slides around the notes like a drunkard. It’s like nails on a chalkboard for me.))
((Blasphemy! I <3 Tom Petty))
((I’ve got to say, the Purge of Dalaran was a bit emotional for me when I did it on my main. Though I’ve been playing since classic WoW, Wrath was where I really came into my own as a player.
Seeing so many NPCs that I was quite familiar with getting kicked out (to say the least) definitely felt like I was being given a final goodbye from the Dalaran I had known.))
