As the sun rises on the once forgotten twilight island, it, too, begins the dawn of its own era as the new City of Miracles. The ambitions of their members kept the legacy of the city alive even against a great setback. Yet one of the original founders, Starshield the paladin, held other issues in his head as of now. The dragon that led him back into this adventure of his was hiding something, and he had set out to find out why he helped them so much, but wanted little else to do with them.
A flight like this would be to much for his netherdrake to handle, so he comissioned the engineers to build a plane that could travel across the continents. While he waited for their new creation, he began to think more about this dragon. His thoughts were interrupted when Mokcie came into his room and started up a conversation.
"Star, what are you doing here? I thought you were going after that dragon."
"I was, clothie," he said back. "But I'm waiting on a way to get across the continents. Until I get that chance, I've been doing some thinking."
"About what?" she asked.
"Well, about this dragon. Being a member of the blue flight, he holds many skills in the magical arts, even after the flights lost their powers, so he must be quite intelligent, even for a dragon. He also seems like he is apologizing for something, like maybe involvment in the nexus war, but he seems far to young to have been involved in that situation."
"Take your mind off of it." she interrupted. "You can't make assumptions about him until you confront him on this. Besides, you seem to be the only one who cares about this."
But she was wrong. Sure enough, across the north sea, there was another who was looking into tis dragon, though he didn't know it yet. At wyrmrest tower, a continually anonymous tauren death knight, first sent there to soothe his unnaturally violent tendencies, had befriended the red dragons and became their own private investigator, his first and only mission being to investigate a situation at the nexus. Weeks after he got this assignment, he finally had something for them.
"Commander, the nexus seems to have been sealed off, but the anomaly that appeared and disappeared a month ago made another appearance, and now, it's out in the ocean somewhere."
"This is rather simple information, tauren. Why didn't you have this for us when we needed it? That anomaly practically radiates magic, and if it falls into the wrong hands, who knows what could happen?"
"Then send me out to hunt it down. I'm the strongest one here and you know it!"
"Yes, you are." he reluctantly admitted. "But all that time you've spent flirting with the queen would work against that. She would not risk losing you like she lost Korialstrasz. But..." he said, lingering on that word.
"I'll have a talk with her. I might get her to let me go if she grants me an escort party. Now fly me up to her; I've got work to do."
The dragon was about to deny his request, but he realized that he couldn't change the tauren's mind. "Alright then," he ultimately agreed. "But that will be your problem. I'll look into the matter elsewhere."
The commander called to a passing by drake, and ordered him to send the tauren to the queen. He then flew off to the nexus in an attempt to infiltrate the eye of eternity.
