Dear Cobalt Company and Associates:
Happy Pilgrim’s Bounty, everyone! Sometime during the holiday, I hope you’re able to take a moment to hug those you love, even if you’re not ordinarily the hugging sort. The world is such a dangerous place, and I think it’s good sometimes to remember to appreciate our moments together as they pass.

Company News
Blue Squad continued to work with the kaldorei team in the Krasarang Wilds, where they ran into yet more trouble with the mogu. The mogu were using portals to transport captives somewhere (similar to the pandaren captives set on boats, back in the Nectarbreeze Orchard). The leader of the sentinel team, Lyalia, was captured by mogu and slain, but her father, Lorekeeper Vaeldrin, used dangerous mogu magic to trade his life for hers. After that, our team came into contact with a pandaren convoy traveling to the Temple of the Red Crane, which had been attacked by a massive bug-like species known as the ‘mantid’. Our team fought off the raiding mantid and provided aid to the injured pandaren travelers.
White Squad accompanied Chen and Li Li Stormstout, as well as Mudmug, to the Stormstout Brewery. The infamous ‘Uncle Gao’ seems to have allowed the brewery to collapse into chaos while he became obsessed with proving himself by making the perfect brew. The instigating incident for this obsession seems to be his family’s departure for some place known as the ‘Dread Wastes’. Our team did what they could to set the place to rights, tidying up and clearing out massive virmen and alementals, among other things. They then took a beer delivery to Stoneplow, where they found the village under attack by mantid. They assisted the Shado-Pan in defense of the area and in evacuation of the local farmers.
