Dear Mrs Kitten Cat -

First off you should know I am not a worgen. Just to take a load off right away.

I know you have seen the Captain’s newsletters about the worgen troubles and so forth up here and it is true we have run in to a whole mess of them out here. It is called Grizzly Hills but the place should be called fucken Worgen Hills or something ha ha. Anyway we have found Arugal (again) it turns out some of those sanlayn elves (there is suppose to be an appostrophe in there but I will be damned if I know where) dug him up and raised him for the Lich King because why not. Lets get some Defias up here to.

Anyway so Grizzly Hills is full of worgens and Arugal (or Arugal ghost it is not real clear to me) up here making them. There was were these local people up here trappers and loggers. I do not know where they came from? But Arugal got to them and turned them. It seems like the wolf curse spreads by biting so we are all watching for that.

We (White Squad) helped a girl whos sister had been taken by the wolf cult and so she told us where to get Arugal so we did. Get Arugal I mean. But he was doing a ritual when we got there making people into worgens, and when we attacked him he made me into a worgen for a bit I guess.

Remember the first thing where I said I am not a worgen? I got better.

Rae fought me so I did not go for none of the others, and then I don’t know if it just wore off or what. Sabitha (Mrs Lambert) said it was because he did not do his whole ritual on me and I did not get infected from bitten. Lieutenant Ambassador Paluuva had a look at me to and said I am okay because I am a warrior of the Light which was pretty nice of her. I stayed out here two nights just in case because I did not want to turn into a worgen in the middle of Dalaran if I was going to (ha ha awkward) but I am fine. I’m pretty glad to have stayed out here anyhow because I know some of these fellows from down to Westfall when I was in militia with them so I have been catching up. One of them owed me some money to and I told him ‘if you thought you were going to get out of it by running up to Northrend with the Lich King and I would not follow you anyhow well that is a lesson learned.’

He thought it was funny as hell but he still did not pay me back.

There is also a fellow here called Dag Jansen (Dagrick I think but he was just Dag at school) who I have caught up with some and he has a sister called Annibell or Annibeth or something who was a friend of Mayellen when we were kids. I am pretty sure May mentioned to me in her last letter a girl named Anni something that she is hanging around with but I cant find the letter. So dont let me forget to ask May herself because Dag says he has not heard from his sister in a dog’s age.

Captain Stoutmantle remembered me. Did I tell you that? I am pretty sure I told you that. I am telling you again because it bears repeating.

Ha ha bears repeating. Because we are in Grizzly Hills and there are bears all over the fucken never mind you get it.

I miss the hell out of you and I reckon I will try to get home again on maybe Monday. I promise I will not be a worgen then neither.

Love
Your husband
(not a worgen)
Ben
