Curses! Managing the fel conversion pits should have been MY task! Nethekurse has outmaneuvered me again.

Now I am given the task of overseeing the clearing of the Dark Portal and guarding the local area. Guarding it from what?! Vines? Gul'dan says prepare, but I think it more likely that my "brethren" discredited me and I have been sent into exile...

Not long ago Gul'dan sent a courier to make sure I was still alive and following orders. I assured him that everything was going according to plan.

It would be difficult to fail this mission into exile. Aside from some wildlife and Bleeding Hollow scavengers that showed up a short time ago, nothing has happened.

While clearing the ruins of the Dark Portal, I have found that it still contains remnants of its power. I will begin fortifying what is left of the enchantments and send a message to Gul'dan. Perhaps this initiative will win me back into his good graces.
