Dear Journal,
Well, I was all set to leave or Orgrimmar tomorrow morning, however, it appears as though things have been delayed somewhat. It is the craziest thing that I have ever heard of, however, the way that my luck has been running in the last six months, it shouldn’t be that much of a surprise either, I suppose.
I had everything arranged, bags packed and was ready to depart when a runner from the Krasarang base camp arrived at the farm with a message. Great, the new commander that was to take my place decided to go off on his own and got killed, now, I have to wait for the new one to arrive. I would have chosen one of the more experienced fellows that has already been serving here in Pandaria, however, that’ s now how things work from Orgrimmar, I guess.
I will admit that I am just as relieved to know that Dawnglory’s resignation and my own have been accepted, however, there was a stipulation that we could be recalled at some point in the future if our experienced minds are needed. Well, that’s just like it was in the past and they pretty much left us alone for the most part until the Theramore atrocity pulled us all back in to do our duty, even if we disagreed with what was going on.
From what news I have garnered here in Halfhill and at the Shrine, the rebellion is still going on in and around Orgrimmar. The Trolls weren’t as victorious in storming the gates of Orgrimmar and taking out that fool that is the leader of the Horde, just yet. Well, there are more subtle ways to get rid of a problem like that than to do a full on frontal assault and get your backside handed to you. From what I have heard, there are more things going on that I don’t have the details on, however, it’s just a matter of time before Hellscream is overthrown. I wonder whom will take his place? Not that it matters to me at this point because I am making plans to distance to myself, family and company from Orgrimmar as quickly as physically possible.
Now, I’m going to have to wait for at least another week for the new replacement commander to show up here in Pandaria and I’m sitting in Krasarang trying to keep my mind on the issues at hand. Yes, I have the responsibilities to my men and my family to keep me occupied, however, I am just ready to get on with my life as I knew it before this exploratory mission here in Pandaria turned into an all out war.
