Chapter 111

Sailing into the nation of Gilneas proper, Varrus consulted a map from within his cabin. 

The country was a large peninsula divided into 5 different regions.

Chapter 110

Note: Changed Rho'dan's “Human” alias to Roy. 

As Varrus marched along towards Lorna Crowley's cabin, he made note of the Gilnean soldiers. 

Almost every one of them was armed with a flintlock pistol, or musket. 

Curiously, he ...

Chapter 109

(Lorna Crowley POV) 

Lorna Crowley, daughter of the Northgate Rebel leader, Darius Crowley, was an auburn haired, lithe woman with sharp features, and possessed a confidence about her that others couldn't help but listen when she spoke.

Chapter 108

After securing some supplies and luxury goods, Varrus had set sail towards Gilneas. 

In preparation for his infiltration, Varrus had assumed the identity of a minor noble House. 

Sometime in the last few hundred years apparently, old man Vandercross had...

Chapter 107

Walking through the fortified city of Sunsail Anchorage-a port town off the west coast-Varrus, Syra, and a contingent of House Vandercross made their way to the harbor where their ship awaited them. 

His trip to the docks was surreal. Every other town or city in Quel'Thalas ...

Chapter 106

Two more weeks had passed since the victory at Deatholme, and it had been about 5-6 months since the Scourging of Silvermoon. At this time, Varrus was busy going over a mental checklist from within his office before he set out for Gilneas. 

As for why he chose Gilneas as the...

Chapter 105

Returning to the meeting room, Varrus took his seat at the center of the table, and nodded at everyone present. 

“Good, now that everyone is here, we can discuss our plans for the future. For the agenda today, I have 4 things in mind. 

• Sunwell...

Chapter 104

After some quick lovemaking, Varrus and Syra were returning to the meeting room when he spotted Nightsong and Lor'Themar engaging in a spar out in the courtyard. 

The pair of generals were moving with fluidity and grace that Varrus only hoped he could match one day.  2024-11-12 20:34:28 +0000 UTC View Post

Chapter 103

The battle over Deatholme had concluded, and with the death of Lana'thel, Varrus and Kael had made swift work of the remaining crazed Darkfallen. 

There was so much carnage, dried blood, and disgusting vital fluids, that Varrus had power washed a good 60% of the city streets...

Chapter 102

Varrus had somewhat adapted to some of the absolutely putrid stenches he had come across in his time in Warcraft. He had experienced a zombie's hot breath, the fried remains of thousands of Trolls, the sticky Kobold throne, and the musky hall of the dark temple. 

But the amo...

Chapter 101

(Kael’Thas POV slightly before Varrus's opening attack on Valanar) 

Kael had led the Sunfury into the city with little resistance, thanks to the covering fire from the cannons, and Varrus's army paving the way. 

As a result, he mostly faced the dregs ...

Chapter 100

Syra looked longingly at Varrus from within a shroud of invisibility. 

He had thought she was already gone, away hunting the vermin that had struck at him. 

Yet she had remained close for just a minute more. She wanted to hold him, squeeze him, and neve...

Chapter 99

Watching the oh so pretty Ranger Captain look down upon him both literally and figuratively from the castle balcony set something off in Varrus. 

Wiping some blood from his chin, Varrus sported a grin. The enemy was so cold, so detached, so arrogant that they couldn...

Chapter 98

Bloody rain pinged off metal hauberks, and sizzled as it collided with the barrier of Light shrouding the Elven host. 

The mixture of purity and filth sounded like butter frying on a skillet. At the same time, the classic sound of rain hitting metal served as the backdrop fo...

Chapter 97

As Varrus neared the top of the hill, he had a clearer view of Tha'salah. 

The massive Undead World Tree, once responsible for maintaining the local balance of nature, and spreading Life energy throughout the continent was now spreading disease and plague on a conceptual lev...

Chapter 96

As the army advanced, Varrus took in the scenery. 

The city of Deatholme was a chaotic mess of crushed buildings, and repainted nonsense. It seemed that with their new unlife, many of the Darkfallen had spent their free time repainting buildings a combination of black, purpl...

Chapter 95

Three more days had passed since the dark ritual over Deatholme had begun.

The sky was black with clouds tinted with a red hue. It almost reminded Varrus of the effect Auriel’s Bow had in Skyrim when a blood tipped arrow was shot into the air.

Chapter 94

Two weeks had passed since Varrus & company had defeated Tenris. 

During those two weeks, the rest of the Ghostlands-with the exception of Deatholme-were purged of most Scourge minions and lesser creatures. 

Each separate army liberated several siza...

Chapter 93

From Varrus's perspective, the plan to gank Tenris went on without a hitch. Instead of prolonging any long fight, they had lured him close, and executed a well-timed team attack. 

By baiting Syra, Tenris came within range of Varrus's Speech skill, Performer. Which forced tho...

Chapter 92

(30 min before Varrus arrives behind Tenris) 

The trek from Tranquillien to the border region where Eversong and the Ghostlands met was an awkward affair for Varrus. 

Combine the revelation of Nightsong being his mother with the fact that he was the son...

Chapter 91

Within minutes of the Scourge army's arrival, battle had commenced. 

Terrifying, 8-10ft tall abominations lumbered forth. Their speed was unimpressive, yet they more than made up for it with their extreme endurance. 

Elven archers aimed mana enhanced, A...

Chapter 90

Standing amongst a crowd of Heroes and Elites, Kael surveyed the lands that he had prepared for the enemy. 

Situated between two hills, the Sunfury positioned themselves at the only bridge linking both Eversong, and the Ghostlands. 

40,000 Elves initial...

Chapter 89

Before the duel officially commenced, Varrus cast Call to Arms on himself, so that the various Illusion perks would buff him up. 

Call to Arms gives a 25-point boost to one-handed, two-handed, archery, health, and stamina for ten minutes.

With the aforementi...

Chapter 88

After slaying the Lich, Varrus and Syra advanced with little resistance. 

A few Elite necromancers attempted to rally the few remaining skeletons holding the flank, but it proved to be a fruitless effort. 

Varrus's spell, Infinite Light, was simply too ...

Chapter 87

The Lich, Doril Magefont, former Archmage of the Kirin Tor, and early disciple of Kel’Thuzad watched on in awe as the Darkfallen known as General Nightsong practically took the gatehouse singlehandedly. 

The defenders were forced to book a hasty retreat as the ancient High...

Chapter 86

Varrus had cast Shroudwalk on himself when he left the ziggurat, and stepped out into the pouring rain to be met with a pleasant sight. 

He looked on in satisfaction as the eastern ziggurat was targeted by the Lich he had mentally dominated. Large purple concussive waves of ...

Chapter 85

Within a massive canvas covered pavilion, situated at the far end of the plains away from battle, were the Scourge commanders responsible for the siege of Tranquillien. 

Sitting upon a throne made of obsidian, Tenris, son of Anasterian Sunstrider and former Crown Prince of Q...

Chapter 84

Within a couple of minutes of leaving the plains, Varrus witnessed a large response from the Scourge commanders. 

A Hero tier Lich, and Darkfallen Arcane Warrior-beings of darkness practically drenched in Death magic-rushed to the scene. They were flanked by dozens of Elite ...

Chapter 83

Before setting out on this commando mission, Varrus took stock of his current skills that would help him infiltrate the enemy lines. 

His Illusion tree was comfortably resting at 100, giving him access to an advanced, Master tier invisibility spell, Shroudwalk. 

<...

Chapter 82

It was on a slightly overcast afternoon day that Varrus took to the walls. The sea of Undead were maniacal in their hunger for flesh. Skeletons clattered their teeth, ghouls howled in unrepentant rage, and the screams of banshees carried on the wind, all thirsting for the living to join their ran...
