(( Another page, giving Nilon and Co. some help. If you want to know who, then read! ))
- The three living and death knight continued their journey towards the heart of Azjol-Nerub. While the others didn't show any signs to fear, Nilon was particularly worried. His sensitive ears were picking up distant sounds that only he and the death knight seemed able to hear. Most were to far away to worry about, but others sounded very, very close.
- "Jason," he said to the warrior, "I think something is following up."
- "I don't hear anything, but better safe than sorry." The warrior nodded. "This tunnel circles back around you take the next few lefts," he said. "Whatever it is we'll catch it between us. The death knight and I will turn back, you and the rogue take the passage route."
- Nilon nodded in agreement, and then he and Slayer went on ahead.
- The soft dirt underneath them muffled their movement greatly, but Nilon and Slayer still moved cautiously. If they could head whatever they were coming upon, there was a good chance that if could hear them as well.
- "It's about time we get to kill something," he heard Slayer mutter.
- "Is that all you think about?" the blood elf asked the rogue.
- The female looked at him, her gaze one of questioning, even though he couldn't see any details of her face through the cloth that covered it. "Not everything," she admitted, trying to sound innocent, "but if takes up a good deal of my thoughts."
- "There's more to life then killing," the paladin insisted. "More to life then death."
- "Yet all life ends in death," Slayer said. "Forgive me if I ignore your safe counseling, 'oh wise one.'"
- Nilon sighed. There was no getting through to her. He abruptly stopped as he saw shadows projected on the wall. With a quick motion he signaled the charge, jumping out from behind the wall and attacking the creatures.
- "Sir Nilon,
no
!" Jason said, stopping the attack with his shield. "They're allies!"
- Nilon looked at the creatures he'd almost attacked. The group consisted of two orcs, a human, and a gnome. They all wore the tabard of the Argent Crusade.
- "Thank the Light there are more!" the human exclaimed. "The Crusade as not forsaken us!"
- "Gentlemen, and lady," Jason said - referring to one of the orcs, "while I'm glad that we could be of assistance, we, quite honestly, had no idea you were here."
- "Even so," the gnome said, "it would be in our best interests to make ourselves scarce before... he returns."
- "'He?'" Nilon asked.
- "A nerubian vizier," the female orc said. "We'd made a deal with a group of Scarlet Onslaught soldiers we met down here... but then they attacked him." She shuddered in pure fear - something Nilon had never seen an orc do. "They were dead in seconds."
- "We'll be careful," Jason assured them, "but we have a mission to complete."
- "Then we're coming with you," a male orc said. "if your success means us getting you of here, then
lok'tar ogar
I say!"
- "Thank you," Jason said with a bow of gratitude. The group then started moving into the forgotten city again.
...
- The beetle landed in Anuk'arag's palm and clicked several times, moving its tiny body around for emphasis.
- Anuk'arag nodded at every sound it made. He understood perfectly.
- "They're not to far ahead," he said to his guards, coughing some more. "Let's keep moving."
- he clicked orders back to the beetle before letting it fly off. Then he and his guards moved further down the tunnel. As they did, Anuk'arag couldn't help but lick his mandibles.
- Soon he'd dine on the flesh of the living once again.

As always, nice page, but there's three things bothering me.
Now I'm not a Lore genius, but;
1; Isn't it the Scarlet Onslaught in Northrend, rather then the Scarlet Crusade.
2; As far as I know, the Scarlet Crusade/Onlsaught consists only of Humans with the Occasional Dwarf and High Elf, how did two Orcs and a Gnome get int?
3; Why didn't they kill Nilon and co on sight, they're ment to be insane zealots, right?

I have to appologize, I got the two (Argent and Scarlet Crusade) mixed up. When the Nilon notices them it was supposed to be Argent Crusade Tabards, not Scarlet.
I've gone back and fixed this. Sorry for the inconvience.

HUUUUUUUUUGE Mistake
There are no Female Orcs.
No, no, no, that's female dwarves and male elves you're thinking of.

:O Brox had a daughter?
Anyway, Morec? I just tried my first attempt at a fan-fic, and I was wondering if you could take a look at it? You obviously know what you're doing, and I'd like feedback from you.

She's Brox's niece as well; her father is a half-brother to Brox and Varok.

You obviously know what you're doing...
You're sadly mistaken, lol.

Then you're a genius if you can hide it.

Writer's Commentary:
- I have good news, bad news, worse news and wonderful news.
- The good news is that after this page things pick up! The bad news is that I was lying.
- The worse news is that I've decided to stop posting these, the wonderful news is that everything above - except for the good news - is false.
- Yeah, not much to say about this page. Anuk'arag likes talking with bugs it seems.
- Page 17 comes next friday!

Heh, you'll have to wait till Chap 4 for them to face off again, but if you want to draw Celen's death, take your shot.

Page 17 Preview:- Three massive crypt lords - so big they might have riveled and abomination in size - burst from the soil, as did a single, massive nerubian vizer. "Ah, our guests have finally arrive," the vizer chuckled to himself. "Let's eat!"
