"So get this, they stay at Silvermoon City between concerts, usually on the balcony of their loft in the Walk of Elders. He told us to go there and he'll give us a message somehow, on when and where their next venue will be."
"How long do we have to wait to go there? put up a Mage portal and lets go there now and wait for them! Come oooooooon" Spammusubi whines.
"Calm yourself woman!" Medelys snaps back. She was almost gonna smack her she was getting all hysterical.
"Lets just go and enjoy the rest of the Faire and meet back here in an hour and Christene can port us then." Hellgurl says.
"Alright lets go" says Medelys
I had to do some stuff anyways, and whatever I didn't get done I can finish after we're done with our mission. Played all the games I wanted to for the day. Time seemed like it was dragging.
...
Alright that was an hour time to head back to the bleachers where I left them. "Where is my sister?... typical, she's always late. Well I'm not gonna hold this portal open for her if she doesn't get here. We're gonna do this without her" says Christene "She's coming, she won't miss this opportunity, I know it." I say defending my first friend I ever made. "There she is, don't close it!"
Her portal puts us all the way opposite where we have to go. Sadly Silvermoon City rules does not allow flying so we have to abide by the City laws and ground mount-up. I get out my Tundra Mammoth with 2 extra seats and Medelys gets on her Mechano-Hog with a sidecar. Christene and Spammusubi jump on my mammoth and Hellgurl jumps in Medelys' sidecar.
We rode all the way down to the Walk of Elders and stop a good distance away from the balcony.
"OMG! there they are!" squeals Spam
We all dismount and walk casualy down the lane not to draw too much attention.
On the bottom of the balcony, their manager is there talking to 3 other people.
"I wonder if we can sneak by him undetected" says Christene. Then we all look at Spam and smile "Fine ya jerks! I'll hang back here, just hurry up"
"Wait!, I think I might have to stay back here too, Michael saw me at the Faire. He'll know I'm not just a lost tourist. This is your guys' city. He wouldn't question Blood Elves around here" I say to Med and Chris.
"Alright I'll go, Mai'kyl is expecting me anyways" says Christene. She walks around like she was going to leave the City, then glances over her shoulder and when they weren't looking she used her Blink ability and it put her right where she needed to be at the bottom of the balcony. Chief Thunder-Skins sees her down there. "Hey Mai'kyl, isn't that the chick you were talking to at Darkmoon?" Mai'kyl comes over and looks down, "Oh ya mon, she and her frens be wantin ta know where da next show be at. I made dis, toss it down." Mai'kyl hands Chief a Happy Fun Rock wrapped with a note. "Make sure you don't knock her out big guy" says Sig.
Yeah that would suck really bad if he had knocked her out, funny, but bad. Not only will I feel bad for my friend just getting beaned in the head with a rock, but we wouldn't find out where they would play next, haha. Happy fun rock made it down to Christene with no injuries.
Christene and Medelys made their way back to us and we all walked to the Bazzar to read the note wrapped around the rock. Trying not to draw attention to ourselves, we walked arm in arm to help the other contain our excitement. "open it, open it!", "Calm down cow!" Medelys snaps at Spam. Christene reaches in her pack for the rock and unwraps the note and reads it:
She wanted to see us.
Had a ticket, but lost it.
A land no one wants to visit anymore.
There she will find what she is looking for.
Travel by serpent gate.
Red land is all you see for miles
A time just before the sun goes down.
Try to appreciate the land while you are Out and about.
Here you will be when the World Ends
"What the heck does that mean? It's a bunch of cryptic jumble! we'll never figure this out! What are we gonna do?!" *Smack* Medelys' hand red from almost slapping the fur from Spam's face. "Ow!" cries Spam. "I told you to calm down, we can figure this out. Hellgurl take look at it, see if you can figure it out" Medelys hands the note to Hellgurl. "Hmmm, blah blah blah, Serpent gate, blah blah blah, Out and about, blah blah blah, Worlds End... the sounds kinda creepy, do they know when the world will end? Well Im guessing it's somewhere in the Outlands, a place no one wants to go anymore, red land is Hellfire, and there is a serpent at the top of the Death Gate." Hellgurl passes the note to me, and I look it over. "Shatt! look at the first letter of every line, SHATTRATH." Everyone crowds around me to look. "Medelys, isn't there a pub there called Worlds End Tavern?" Ah yeah, I had a couple of ales in there before, Holy cripes!, you guys figured it out! Lets go!" Christene puts up a port to Shattrath. We all go through and head for the Tavern.
As we're running down the ramps we can hear music playing already. "Omg! this is so awesome!" We stop at the entrance and look in to see if it's real and not just their music playing on the speakers. Nope! it was really them! No one is there. They'll be playing for just us and the tavern regulars. No crazy fans pushing and shoving us to get closer. Just a drunk ogre laying on the floor that we have to make sure we don't step on if we decide to get a 5man mosh pit going. I don't know if they gave the same cryptic note to other fans, but I feel special that even if we weren't the only ones, we were the first ones to figure it out. This Night will be epic, hanging out with my friends, and rocking out to a live concert of the best band in Azeroth... Level90EliteTaurenChieftain
