[Empiricist]

"You have our thanks. Now to figure out how to make sure that no one actually harms others, I don't trust alcohol's inhibition induction capabilities enough to assume that it will restrain them..."

[Vgray]

Tasrak puts his horned helmet on.

"Now be honest. Do I look scary?"

[Empiricist]

"If I were from your world, I probably would be terrified considering what it means. But as I have not witnessed it firsthand, no, I'm far more creeped out by Guignol-AW units *shudders*. Anyway, it's hard to be terrified by an acquaintance's change in armor."

[Vgray]

"Yes. You don't seem at all disturbed to be acquainted with a member of the greatest calamity of an age. I'm used to people despising me. But like you said, you're not from my world."

[Empiricist]

"Hey, it wasn't like you had much of a choice did you? Victors write history and I doubt they wanted their heroes questioning what they did."

[Vgray]

"Yes. Perhaps undeath has made me cynical, but I suspect the contributions of the Forsaken and the Knights of The Ebon Blade will be marginalized. We who had as many reasons, maybe even more, to hate the Lich King."

[Empiricist]

"If undeath has made you cynical, then I am cynical as well from life. I very much doubt any of you shall receive much credit for anything other than exaggerated atrocities."

[Vgray]

"It gets better. The Wrathgate incident. Forsaken apothecaries have been experimenting with the undead plague for years. The Wrathgate is an entrance into Icecrown, home of Icecrown citadel the seat of the Lich King. He himself appeared at the end of the battle to take it. The Forsaken "perfected" the plague so it could harm both the living and the dead. Grand Apothecary Puttress used it that day. Against everyone. The only good thing that came out of it is that it seemed to weaken the Lich King enough to make him retreat."

[RangerCado]

Minu is idly making daisy chains, trying to keep out of all the big people's way.

[Empiricist]

"Sounds almost like a thermonuclear bomb... an indiscriminate device of mass destruction..."

[Vgray]

"Yes, certain Forsaken are as bad as the Scourge...they don't exactly help the image of us free undead. Their leader denied ever being involved and blamed her second, a foul creature called a Dreadlord. Tensions rose after the Lich King fell and Alliance and Horde were once again waging open war against each other. And the Forsaken used their new plague during the war. And they began to raise the dead themselves, using creations of the Lich King called Val'kyr."

[Empiricist]

"Oh great a biological arms races, sounds rather unpleasant..."

[Vgray]

"Actually, the Forsaken are the only ones who ever dared experiment with the undead plague. They don't have as many morals as the living. The then Warchief of the Horde, Garrosh Hellscream, was furious. But he never actually disallowed the use of the plague mind you. Or was it the use of the Val'kyr? I forget."

[Empiricist]

"What was the point? Rendering land useless by contaminating it with a biological weapon..."

[Vgray]

"The point, my dear sir, was to eradicate the living. Plain and simple. They would've turned on the Horde eventually."
