The larger of the two moons had risen first this evening, and now hung pregnant and silver-white against a clear, star-clapped sky. Beneath the lambent moon the peaks of the Redridge Mountains strained for the sky. In the daylight the sun picked out hues of magenta and rust among the great granite peaks, but in the moonlight they were reduced to tall, proud ghosts. To the west lay the forest of Elwynn, its heavy canopy of greatoaks and satinwoods running from the foothills to the sea. To the east, the bleak swamp of the Black Morass spread out, a land of marshes and low hills, bayous and backwaters, faild settlements and lurking danger. A shaow passed briefly across the moon, a raven-sized shadow, bearing for a hole in the heart of the mountain.

Here a chunk had been pulled from the fastness of the Redridge Range, leaving behind a circular vale. Once it might have been the site of some primeval celestial impact or the memory of an earth-shaking explosion, but the aeons had worn the bowl-shaped crater into a series of steep-edged, rounded hillocks which were now cradled by the steeped mountains surrounding them. None of the ancient trees of Elwynn could reach its altitude and the interior of the ringed hills was barren save for weeds and tangled vines.

At the center of the ringed hills lay a bare tor, as bald as the pate of a Kul Tiras merchant lord. Indeed the very way the hillock rose steeply, that gentled to a near-level slope at its apex, was similar in shape to a human skull. Many had noted it over the years, though only a few had been sufficiently brave, or powerful, or tactless to mention it to the property’s owner.
At the flattened peak of the tor rose an ancient tower, a thick massive protrusion of white stone and dark mortar, a man-made eruption that shot effortlessly into the sky, scaling higher than the surrounding hills, lit like a beacon by the moonlight. There was a low wall at the base of the tower surrounding a bailey, and within those walls the tumbledown remains of a stable and a smithy, but the tower itself dominated all within the ringed hills.


It was Karazhan.


Karazhan, tower of Medivh, the Keeper of Secrets. The most powerful mage to trace Azeroth at this date, or at least … so has the habitants been told. Who in truth would the legend that supposively wander the halls of the sealed tower be? Few knew who, but many knew what. It was the mage that united the mortal races, had them put aside their differences and fight together against the demonic threat not so many years ago. He was a legend, but tales indicated more to him as being a myth. The kind of myth that inspired scholars, that brought magic masters envy and struck the heart of foes with fear. He was one whom could be found in a children tale, as the iridescent hero mage that vanquish evil. In other tales, he was the dark lord fought and defeated, for few wrote tales of the mage with usage of solid fact. To the world he was unknowingly known as merely the prophet, an entity who foretold what was to come, and believed to be a separate individual from Medivh.


The puddles of water on the ground was splattered, and the ground almost trembling as the numerous heavy wagons was dragged along the road. The magnificent moon up in the sky glew bright on the caravan that was traveling through the dead land known as Deadwind Pass. One could almost feel the trees stare you down, leafless and petrified. The wind smells foul and dead, yet many wandered with ease in their heart. Some of the travelers in the caravan held their envelope tightly, the letter that was their key into the ivory tower Karazhan. The letter that was to be delivered to Magus Medivh, whom would then welcome each and all into the great sanctuary that was his home.

The shouts of a few members in the caravan echoed the valley, as the caravan had passed yet another hill in the dead lands. As they reached the top of the hill, it was to be beholded. The mighty tower, pulsating intimidating and inviting energies at the same time. At the far end of this downhill road, the long journey for the caravan would meet it's destination. After what for some was days, and for others had been over a month of wandering to get from where they had been, to the tower, they had finally arrived. Karazhan was now there, for everyone to behold.

Val swayed quietly in her saddle, the little pack horse nickered a greeting as her servant rode up beside her. She glanced momentarily at the woman, then went back to her book. "Yes Cass?" The servant glanced back at her own pack horse, comparing the size of its packs to eachother. "My lady dont you think you brought a little too much?" Val snorted and rolled her eyes. "Cass now your place. I brought only the things I cannot live without. It took me two weeks to pack, then remove what I didnt need." The servant sighed softly and fell into place beside her. "Its a rather large caravan isnt it?" Val narrowed her eyes and looked up. "Huh? We're in a caravan?.... Oh.. Yeah I guess it is isnt it." She shrugged and looked back down at the pages. "Dont you want to make some friends?" She shook her head and made a motion, signaling that she was speaking about the people in the Caravan. "Friends would only make trouble. Fights, gossip, boys... Its all something that I want nothing to do with.... And its going to be a long school year." Her servant rolled her eyes and looked up at the school. "Indeed."

~Dyonilia rode upon her Frost Saber, her entire body covered in a brown cloak made of linen. She lifted her head up slightly and looked to the tower as they approached. She patted the Frost Saber between the ears and spoke softly in her native tongue. If anyone understood the language of the Night Elves they would know she spoke of ease and reassurance that the journey would be over momentarily.~

Gorak walked behind the caravan at a steady pace, he had been given a mount but he prefered to walk. His looked over his shoulder to see the runic symbols that were carved int his back and arms. He then checked his bad to make sure his supplies were secure anc continued.

"Arr, i ate being round alliance races" he said to himself

o.0.... where is everybody?))

Val glanced back behind her, hearing the light and flowing language of her people. She smiled and looked further back along the line of people, spotting... oh god.... An orc? This was going to be a long year. She sighed heavily and rubbed her eyes, feeling her mount heave a sigh as well beneath the saddle her father had given her. She smiled and gave him a loving pat. "You'll get to rest soon dont worry."

The young sorceress, bright blonde hair and only partially matured body glanced with her emerald green eyes a flinching gaze down the hill to the massive tower that claimed the land at the end of the valley. It was not only as magnficent as she had been told, but the energy it emitted was unlike anything she had ever felt before. She knew how to sense the magic aura of humans, but never had she heard of buildings that emitt magical auras. While she pondered over the mystical structure, she followed with her eyes the other members of the caravan. She couldn't help but to smile to how the words of a single human mage could make so many different people and races put the differences aside. If a simple note caused this, then one could only imagine the impact he had if he put his back into things.

Medivh .. The Keeper of Secrets. She couldn't wait to see him. She pulled the hood of her ruby-red robe over her head and slacked back into the crowd that came with the caravan. She werent one interested in sticking out of the crowd, so she hid often in the far end or the center of the caravan, often if the chance came her way inside the wagon.

=Rox was upon his Red Hawkstrider. The ride was boring and he spent the majority of his time snapping his fingers and producing a flame that sprouted up then faded into smoke over and over. He wore plain blue robes and sandles. After the flame thing got boring he moved a hand through his short spiked red hair and looked around at those he would be spending the next year with.=

From the highest window in the tall tower, the robed figure who had summoned the pack of people glanced down, observing their approach. It was only for a few seconds, before he then disappeared into the darkness of the room he stood in, but for the seconds that he did stand by the window, the young sorceress faintly sensed his presence and knew now that this was really going to happen. Tutoring by the great Keeper of Secrets.

The caravan reached the end of the hill, and had nothing but a straight line left to go. At the far end of the now final road to their destination, anyone with average eyesight could see a dark figure by the gates of Karazhan. The figure was a stooped, thin humanoid, but only marginally human. Almost seemed like a crossing between a human and some beastial creature, possibly weasle. Of course, it was just nonsense. One thing was definate however, and that was that whatever this being had been through, it was a lot and it was harsh. A quick glance was all that was needed to make the assumption that this being's bodyweight was too heavy for even the being-self to carry, resulting in a tired, low-hanging stance. Was it age that had done this, or was it something else?

The young sorceress, known as Vulpix, did not know what to think, but the being did creep her out more and more the closer they got to the gates where this possible greeter was waiting for them. His face was shaded, dark and the only real visibility was his white eyes and the glance he gave the incoming caravan.

As the caravan reached the supposively man, the greeter, he remained silent, straightened his back a little, and stared at the arrivals.

Val gulped and slipped her book back into her pack. She wasn't going to take her eyes off the weasle man. He was too weird to trust, and she knew Cass realized this too. She looked over at her servant, both of them were wondering what they had gotten themselves into.

Gorak just grunted at the weasle like man and chuckled at the pathetic beast. He walked past eagerly awaiting for the training to start

=Rox Wolfen made his way forward. As he walked by the greeter he eyed him a moment then followed the Orc inside, following close to the only other Horde member he has yet to see.=

.... Good to know I am not the only one here...

=He spoke in Orcish to Gorak as he followed.

=Rox shrugged and looked back at the others, his eyes setting on one human female. Val.=

Oh I wouldnt be surprised to find they are more then capable of handling themselves.

=He said looking at her. When he finished he turned back looking to Gorak.=

Names Rox Wolfen if you care to know it.....

=He introduced himself casually but also in a manner to seem like he didnt care if the orc wanted to know the name or not.=

Val sighed and edged her horse forward and made her way past the creepy man. She looked up at saw the blood elf look back at her. She narrowed her eyes and looked down at the back of her horse's neck. This place was weird.

~She noticed the Blood elf look behind him then she turned to look at another Night elf. She stopped and waited until the other night elf rode up and then began riding with her. She pulled her hood back letting long blue hair fall out and her purple skin exposed.~ Good to see another in this place. It surley will make the time more bearable.

"You are the new students?" a soft voice, almost sepulchral came from the stooped being, his face now raised to meet the first arrivals of the caravan and glanced then over the shoulders of those closest, to follow the trail of people all the way to the end of the caravan. While he was expecting a response from one or several, he meanwhile hulked over to the gate where many of the people in the front where waiting. He picked up a glittering key and shoved it into the lock, and with more of a snap than a click did it unlock. With a loud ratteling, the metal gate raised into a dark space above the doorway. Behind it, a massive wooden door waited, and while the greeter seemed to be as muscular as a skeleton, he opened the massive door with ease. Not for a second from the point where he had uttered his first words to the point where the wooden door was opened had his facial expression altered.

"Stable to the left, inside the tower" He blustered, although with a neutral, submissive tone. His voice, as sepulchral as it was gave Vulpix the creeps every time it reached her. A shutter was all she gave out as she tightened the grip of her only possession, a wooly backpack. She waited by the gate, having promised herself to not be the first, nor the last one to enter the tower. She didnt wanna walk into something, nor did she want the creepy servant breathing in her neck.

Those that would to enter the tower would be met by an immediate crossway. Straight ahead waited stairs that never seemed to end, to the right waited a path that seemingly lead to the basement, and to the left which was the direction the creepy man had given them, was without misstake, a stable, inside the building itself. One that entered the tower would have a hard time not being amazed non-the-less, for the height to the roof was massive, the walls was clad with costy colors and magnificent paintings, with golden silk cloth hanging down the rough stone walls.

She smiled and nodded her greeting. "Indeed. Or at least it will keep Mr. Fuzzy Weasel Man away from us and out of our pants. I'm happy I'll never be alone." She smiled and looked back at her servant. "This is Cass." Cass nodded and smiled. "Evening."
