Arc: Cobalt Manhunt
Greetings Rozalin
I am glad to hear that you are safe now.
I would have done more to aid you, but circumstances being what they are there is little I can do now.
The only thing I can offer to you now is a place to run should your trial end unfavorably.
However, your company is renowned for its valor and honor, so spirits willing it will not come to that.
As for myself, things are progressing steadily here in the Barrens.
The Alliance continues to send in forces from Theramore, but we will not be so easily defeated.
We will show them that this land is not theirs for the taking.
As for the cold greeting from your comrades, I cannot say that it was unexpected.
Perhaps in time they will come to know that there are many in the Horde who would see the hatred between our peoples done away with, but the scars of war run deep.
It will take time to change their minds, and I do not fault them for distrusting me, as vexing as it always is in the moment.
Dane Atley and I in particular have crossed paths many times over the years now.
I have always known him to be an honorable and formidable warrior, and I can sense some greater destiny between us. However, there is little I can say for certain.
You could perhaps ask him more if you are curious, though I imagine this would incur his suspicion, and there is no reason for you to suffer the prejudice of your own people for my sake.
It saddens me to hear that your living situation is somewhat dubious at the moment, but I hope that you will be able to resolve that quickly.
A warrior with your will and determination should have no problems getting back on your feet.
The only advice I can give now is to not spurn the generosity of others. I will freely admit that my people have a much different relationship with money than yours, but in either case it is only a tool. If it is given to you then you should make use of it to better the world around you.
Your letter comes to me as a pleasant surprise.
It gladdens me to hear that you have taken my words to heart, but I must advise you against further communication with me until your trial is over.
There is more I would like to say to you as well, but it can wait for now. There will be a better time soon.
Until then, I wish you well.
Lok’tar,
Crim Ragefang
