Dear Cobalt Company and Associates:

You'll be pleased to know that the end of Azeroth has now been postponed! Also, they still have hot chocolate down in the inn's common room, and I have hopes that we will not run out soon. Read on to learn more!

Blue Squad has continued to assist the Kirin Tor and the Red Dragonflight in Coldarra, this time by actually getting into the Nexus fortress! It took some doing, but the mages in our Company are really top notch and found a way to trick the entrance portal open. That's not me being braggy, by the way, I was talking about Cressidha and Gwen.

Inside the fortress, I have reports that it looked like you would expect from a place overloaded with arcane power. Plants and creatures were crystallized with it, rifts in space-time were beginning to pop in unexpectedly, and dragonkin were crawling all over the place. I am also sad to report that the Blue Dragonflight has been capturing and enslaving the Reds. The one the squad encountered was not able to be rescued. On a brighter side, our squad has cleared out the Nexus and recovered considerable information from inside. I have high hopes that this wil very soon make a change in our circumstances!

Malygos, however, is still out there, and I continue to urge caution for all of our mages and non-Company mage friends. If you find yourself in distress in these days, please seek out Chaplain Aspenwood.

Dear Cobalt Company and Associates:

Have you ever met a Tuskarr? If not, I totally recommend it! They're super nice! Also, the boat that flies down to their little island? Super badas cool.

Alliance and Company News

Our White Squad spent a lot of their time working on clearing out Sh Gjalerbron, where the vrykul are teaming up with the Scourge. I've been told the Gj is not a weird typo, it is actually spelled like that. They've got liches and gargoyles and abominations up there. Or had, because we killed a lot of them. Also, they got rows of sleeping vrykul, which our team interfered in their waking up ceremony so that some of them won't.

Next, the squad was sent down to talk to a Tuskarr, and see what they needed help with! Turns out they needed help with undead vrykul. I swear to the Light, this place is just chock full of vrykul. Turns out there's this burial ground, and some pirates have disturbed it and stole sacred armor. Now there's like a curse, or something, and the vrykul all came up out of their graves like bearded skeletons and are wandering around attacking. It's not fixed yet, but White Squad and Elder Atuik are on it.

Watch out for those vrykul, skeletons or living,
