Hey guys, im back with chapter 2 hope you like it.

Frostfire ridge

Saldrok pov

I almost didnt notice the chilling winds as i had so much to think about. This crystal could really turn the tide in our war agenst the alliance. I could make their armies loyel to me and turn them agenst the rest of the alliance.

"Is something bothering you, master?" i heard Gralda ask behind me.

"No Gralda, just have alot to think about" i answered. It was true. This power was incrediable.

I would need to learn more about the depths of this crystal. So far i have learned to use it on one person if i focused a little on the crystal.

I wonder if i focused more, i would be able to use its power on more than one person.

Frostwall garrison

As Kragosh landed outside the townhall, some of my guards gave me curious glances since i brought a member of the shadow council back to the garrison.

We dismounted. "Go back to the stable Kragosh, im sure Amaukwa has missed you" i said and watched him fly towards the stable. Amaukwa is Kragoshs mate. She has light blue silver like fur. I found her in Shadowmoon Valley, she was captured by the shadowmoon orcs. They were trying to corrupt her using void magic. I freed her and Kragosh took quite a liking to her.

Anyway. "follow me" i said walking towards to townhall with Gralda behind me.

I stopped outside. "Wait here, Gralda" i said. She nodded in response.

Entering the the hall, i saw warmaster Zog looking down at the map.

"Throm'ka, sir. There recently hasnt been any sigtings of any demon activity" he said.

"Good" i simply said "you are dismissed".

He saluted and walked out of the hall. I walked over to my chair/throne and sat down. I held up my hand, with the crystal in it, in front me. To learn more about it, i would have to test it on someone. It would be betrayel to use it on my own guards because they are already loyal to the horde.

Maybe if someone could summon something i could test it on. Hmm, maybe my friend Orsa could help with this.

"Zog" i called out.

"Yes, sir?"

"please send word to the Undercity, i need Grand Warlock Orsas assistance on something" i said.

"Right away" he answered.

I looked at the crystal. The twisting nether should have some demons i could test the crystal on.

The next day. The crackling plains.

"So you want me to summon some demons, so you can test this artifact you found?" Asked the undead warlock know as Orsa.

"Yes. And Gralda will assist you" i answered.

"Who are you exactly?" he said facing Gralda.

"I am the first master Saldrok used the artifact on. He convinced me to join the Horde. And for that i will serve him" she answered him.

"Interresting" he said. "Very well, lets begin".

"Yes, start with a large group of imps" i said to the two warlocks.

Both of them formed a large ball of fel energi in their hands. Out of it came smaller bolts of energi. When they hit the ground, they turned into imps.

I counted atleast 30 of them. "Good, now step back" i said. They walked some distance away from the imps.

Now, i concentrated on the crystal. Focusing much of my will power on it. I could feel the large amount of energi forming in my hand. I held up my hand facing the imps and released the power.

To my surprise, a giant beam of red energi shot from my hand and enveloped all the imps. When i held down my hand, i could see all of the imps now had small black symbols of the horde on their heads.

"Very impressive. I can feel these imps are no longer under my control" said Orsa with a cursious tone.

"This is even better than i thought. Lets move on" i said eagerly.

Orsa and Gralda began to return the imps into energi and siphon it back into their hands.

"Next is a pack of felhounds" i said.

Orsa and Gralda casted their spell and formed a bigger energi ball with fel energi coming out of it. Gralda summoned 2 felhounds while Orsa summoned 5.

The felhounds howled as they were summoned.

This time i would try something diffrent. I again focused hard on the crystal. As soon as the energi ball was formed, i threw it up into the air.

It hovered right over the demon pack. Then red lighting looking energi shot out of it and into the felhounds skull like heads. After a couple of seconds it returned to my hand and into the crystal.

The felhounds bowed their heads with the black Horde symbol on them.

"This is getting better and better" i said with a smirk on my face. "Lets try something much bigger. A Wrathguard"

Orsa raised and eyebrow. "Are you sure? A Wrathguard is a very powerful demon" he asked.

"Im sure" i answered confidently.

"Very well then" he said.

Both warlocks held one hand out and combined their magic into a portal. The portal grew bigger, and soon a wrathguard walked out.

It had the usual dark armor on and a giant axe as weapon.

I focused again and shot a red lighting beam into the demons head. It began to scream as it...Resisted?

My eye widened. The demon actually resisted. I focused harder on the crystal and the red beam grew slightly bigger.

After about a minute, the screaming finaly stopped and the demon kneeled. "Command me, master" it said.

I was quite surprised by this. The demon had actally resisted the crystals power.

"It seems stronger demons are resistent to the artifact. I doubt you would be able to control any stronger demon like a pitlord or an infernal" said Orsa as he and Gralda reopened the portal and send the demon back.

"It apears so" i said. "Well, that was all, thanks Orsa"

"No problem, Saldrok, Anytime" he said

Suddenly, an idea apeared in my head. Gralda is a strong warlock, but she still has much to learn.

"Hey, Orsa" i asked.

"Yes?"

"If its not too much to ask, i would like it if you took Gralda under your wing and trained her further" i said.

Orsa held a hand to chin. "Hmm, she is quite talented in the ways. Very well, i will teach her" he said.

"Thank you, my friend, but please keep this artifact a secret" I said and he nodded

I looked over to Gralda. "Make sure to learn as much you can, Gralda. Orsa is the most powerful warlock i know" i said

"Thank you, master, i will" she said.

Orsa opened a portal to the Undercity and they both walked through it.

I now stood alone on the icy plain. "Kragosh" i yelled. He came flying down and landed in front of me. I mounted the saddle and he took flight back towards the garrison.

I thought again of the crystal.

I had recently got word that the draenei native to this draenor, had officially joined the alliance.

I smirked as i thought of an idea. With this crystal, i think i could change their minds.

There we go, chapter 2. Hope you enjoyed it. Chapter 3 coming soon.

btw Throm'ka is a greeting in orcish.
