Kahtraa's 7th Journal Entry

   

True to her word, Calia found me more work.  She told me to report to Captain Wymor at Sentry Point.  She had already sent word to him that I was on my way and he seemed pleased for the extra help.  He caught me up on the situation.  There had been reports from scouts in the area of men wearing the red Defias bandanas walking the Dreadmurk Shore north of Theramore.  The scouts were able to determine that the Defias probably shipwrecked and had made their way to a small island of the Shore.  Captain Wymor wanted me to find and kill their leader and take whatever documentation he may have on him.

I made my way to the island and I got lucky as it looked like most of the Defias were away from the island.  There were only a few people there and I quickly dispatched them.  I didn’t see the leader of this group anywhere so I started checking the few tents I saw.  I really need to be more cautious when doing some like this because on the second tent I checked on, I pulled the tent flap back and came nose to nose with someone who I took to be the leader.  Needless to say, we both yelped with surprise and he drew his sword.  I already had my sword in my hand and before he could bring his sword around, ran him through his midsection.  I searched his person but didn’t find anything.  A quick look around the tent told me I hit the jackpot for intelligence on the Defias presence here.   I gathered the documents up quickly and after a quick look around to make sure no one had returned to the island, I made a hasty retreat back to Captain Wymor.

While I grabbed a bite to eat, Captain Wymor and his officers went through the paperwork.  It was discovered that the Defias were in the process of trying to retrieve the cargo they lost in the shipwreck.  That explained the few people on the island if they were diving the surrounding waters for their lost cargo.  The Captain told me that they had sent SI:7 divers to the area around the island a couple of days before as they had had suspicious about the wreckage.  He asked me to meet up with the head operative, Renn McGill, and check on their progress.  I made my back to the island and found Renn.  I explained my mission and he showed me what little bit they had found so far.  It amounted to just so much junk and then an operative arrived with a strongbox in his hands.  We managed to get it open and there was some junk in there but we found documentation wrapped in oil cloth that showed they were transporting a prisoner and none of the operatives had found any sign of bodies in the wreckage.  Renn told me to report this news directly to Jaina and he would send an operative to inform Captain Wymor of my whereabouts.

I immediately set out for Theramore as time was of the essence due to our lack of information on the prisoner.  She listed to my report and thanked me.  Apparently I had just helped find the link between Onyxia and the Defias in the kidnapping of King Varian Wrynn.   Jaina was sure the King would be very interested in this information and would make an example of all the Defias that remain.  She asked me to make haste to Stormwind to tell the King of my discovery.  She even opened a portal for me to hasten the news.  Upon arrival I requested audience with the King and later that day was ushered to his presence where I relayed the news of the Defias connection with Onyxia.  He was indeed very interested and thanked me with the comment that he had to make plans for the destruction of the remaining Defias.  After the audience with the King, I went to the mage quarter in Stormwind to find Archmage Malin.  Jaina had told me that he could port me back to Theramore.  Upon arrival in Theramore I reported back to Jaina with the news from the King of Stormwind.  She thanked me for my service to both Theramore and Stormwind and gave me a substantial reward.

After all that running around, I came to the conclusion that Theramore didn’t need more fighting help, they needed courier help and that was not something I enjoyed doing.  I have decided to make my way to a place south of Theramore called Thousand Needles.    I will see if there is anything I can help with there before I make my way to Tanaris.  An old friend said he was being stationed there for a bit and it would be nice to see someone from home again.
