The Sentinels are summoned to Ashenvale by a Druidess Moonwhisper, who has asked for their aid.


She explains the situation to them, that someone...or something...has been killing much of the local wildlife and local travelers. To make matters worse, the killings seem to be done for enjoyment, not for hunting.

As they talk, a furbolg horn sounds in the distance...


They set off immediately to investigate the closest furbolg settlement, Greenpaw Village.


The Sentinels make a horrifying discovery upon their arrival: most of the village has been destroyed, and a great many of its warriors slain. Most of the women and children seem to be missing. One survivor mentions the name "Ormu," whom, according to Druidess Moonwhisper, is an ancient bear and longtime noble guardian of eastern Ashenvale.


Hearing another furbolg horn, the Sentinels hurry through the village. Along the base of a cliff they find the survivors cornered by an immense bear. It is, or was, Ormu. However, he is now twisted and corrupted. Driven mad, Ormu seems only to care about killing everything around him.




The Sentinels and their allies charge forward and engage Ormu in a vicious fight, trying to save the furbolg survivors from a horrible fate.


After a lengthy battle, the once-noble Ormu is finally slain, giving him peace from his torment. Strangely, he has a magical rune branded into his flank. The symbols seem to match those used by the Shadow Council...


At Ormu's den the Sentinels make another disturbing discovery: the bodies of many cultists, perhaps those who perished trying to brand the great bear with the magical runes that drove him insane. Why would they do such a thing? For what purpose? And who ordered them to do it?

Miekketar could feel her stomach beginning to knot up as her conversation with Niladrys drew to a close. She wished she had been able to talk her friend out of trying to see her father, but she never really thought she would be able to. Miekketar didn't always trust Nila's judgement, but had to admit she was right in this case. Miek had no reason to believe she would walk out of a meeting with Nila's father alive, while Nila could likely avoid an immediate fight to the death. Still, she wished her friend wouldn't go.

Miekketar tried to act as normal as she could leaving her friend's house, but she was profoundly worried. She could feel tears welling up in her eyes, but sure she was able to keep any from running down her face. Well, reasonably sure.

edit- sorry, was trying to post this on the other thread, but it ended up here.

(A link to A Deadly Meeting. This is a side story involving Niladrys' father.)

Assembly and mission briefing. The Sentinels are tasked by the Emerald Circle with finding a patrol that has gone missing in the vicinity of the ancient Night Elf town of Constellas.




Marching into Felwood.


Strangely, the Sentinels find their path blocked by a towering wall of magical flame. With the Cadre's druids, they manage to dispel the barrier and continue on into the old moonwell grove.


Approaching the grove.


Here they make a unsettling discovery: a lone survivor of the patrol, who claims they were attacked. Her companions were seemingly killed and thrown over the cliffside.


A guardian stirs. An ancient protector, once a guardian of this moonwell grove, confronts the Sentinels. Driven mad by his long ages of isolation and fel corruption, the ancient begins to attack the Sentinels.


After a fierce battle that leaves many of the Sentinels battered and wounded, they finally manage to defeat the corrupted ancient and give him peace.

Investigating reports of possible cultist activity inside an abandoned druid barrow den, the Sentinels venture into the ruined city of Jaedenar.


Outside the dens. They find many sets of humanoid footprints leading into and out of the abandoned halls.


Descending into the ancient barrow dens.


The Sentinels find the sleeping chambers and cells empty and abandoned, but also curiously covered in strange thorny vines or red and black, and un-opened flower pods. Bright red flowers soon begin to blossom from the pods, releasing clouds of sweet-smelling spores into the air. Four Sentinels inhale the spores and slump to the floor, fast asleep and caught in a nightmare dream!

While Elliosia, Xeqwena, Aylin, and Symira struggle within their 'nightmare,' the rest of the Sentinels are assaulted by swarms of shadows mirroring their sleeping Sisters...and all immune to their weapons!


Outside the dens. Having finally awoken from their dream and dispelling the shadows, the four Sisters explain their ordeal: within the nightmare they had been given a difficult choice: save their fellow Sentinels from certain death at the hands of the shadows, or release the ancient satyr Dreadhollow from his prison and once again into Kaldorei lands. The set of deeply set hoof prints leading out of the dens bears witness to their decision.
