That Damn Role Player

(( Originally posted on Garilos’ Blog as “A Letter to Megaly”. ))

Dear Megaly,

I hope you are well. I’ve been busy helping the Tuskarr of Moa’ki Harbor in The Dragonblight. I first came across this race of fishermen while working for the Alliance forces operating out of Valiance Keep in the Borean Tundra.

After living peacefully for centuries in their primitive villages, the Tuskarr recently came under attack by the vicious Vrykul. The Vrykul destroyed countless villages in the Borean Tundra and the Dragonblight. I’ve spent many days and nights assisting the Tuskarr, so much so they now accept me as a member of their society.

As much as it pained me to see the harm brought by the Vrykul, I am not surprised by the actions of those savages. My experiences at Valgarde taught me to give no quarter to the Vrykul. It is good to see the Tuskarr have learned the same lesson and are now holding their own against the Vrykul.

But I can’t understand what I’ve seen done by the blue dragons. In a quest to control magic, the blue dragons ripped open a ley line under Indu’le Village, a Tuskarr village in the Dragonblight. The resultant explosion of magic energy killed most of the village and drove the survivors insane. The poor spirits of the slain tuskarr wander the village, trapped in this world. I cried with grief when I was instructed by the Elder Mana’loa to slay the spirits so they could move on. It was as if I was slaying the spirits of my own ancestors!

Why would the blue dragons needlessly cause so much harm to the innocent Tuskarr? The tuskarr are simple fishermen who live their lives centered around family and kin. Were not the dragons appointed to protect such people? It is bad enough we must contend with Arthas’ betrayal but now we must face the apparent betrayal of the blue dragons!

There is no peace. Every where I look I see the corruption sown by the Burning Legion. The undead forces of the Lich King walk the land, a threat to every living creature. Even the dragons can not be trusted as they madly grasp for power. I’ve even heard rumors of insane Titans.

I’m questioning my understanding of the world. Everything seems to be a lie. The world feels wrong to me.

Garilos.
