I resided in the Crystal Cave for many days, perhaps even weeks. The hatchlings and drakes grew fond of me quickly. They had never seen a creature like me before. It was obvious they did not go outside of the cave much. Young drakes would show off by manipulating the magic in the crystals in order to make illusions of animals, though the drakes had little knowledge on what the animals actually were. With my knowledge on the creatures that they summoned, I was soon explaining what the creatures were and telling stories about what they did. I was in the middle of telling a story to the hatchlings when Crystinia interrupted me.

"Child you are needed."

Heeding her call, I came and saw that Sinewa was with her.

"Hello!" I smiled.

"Hi," she said with her raspy voice.

Crystinia began to explain, "So, you're going to go with Sinewa and meet the Warchief, he's interested in your arrival."

I nodded and followed Sinewa as she left. She was a quiet undead, that no surprise since I had made her that way. We mounted her bronze drake and flew out of the area. Looking at the bronze drake I wondered if all drakes could speak. It looked back, to check on us I guessed, and noticed me looking at him.

"Is something wrong Noel?" he spoke.

"No, I was just wondering if all drakes could speak."

"Yes, we are all able to speak."

"What is your name?" I asked.

"Tempredormu."

"Do all dragons have long names?"

"Compared to your human names yes. The reason our names seem so long is because we have a suffix at the end of our name that allows us to identify which flight we are a part of if we take a mortals appearance."

"Do you mean like the suffix –dormu?"

"Indeed, you are quick to catch on. I suppose since I'm introducing myself, you should as well Sin," he said referring to Sinewa.

"I'm Assistant Professor Sinewa."

I interrupted her, "Of Orgrimmar, Silvermoon, the Undercity, Thunderbluff, and Sen'jin. You are a revered warrior who fights valiantly against the Lich King's forces and aids the dragons when they need you."

"How do you know that?" she asked shocked.

"Umm… It's sorta hard to explain. It's because of where I was born, I suppose is the best way I can put it."

The answer was not satisfying to her, I could tell from the awkward silence, but she made no attempt to keep trying to find out. I watched us land on a blimp that had just departed from Warsong Hold. Waiting patiently, I looked at the blimp and its occupants. There were a few goblins that looked at me. Some were shocked and others looked like they were about to beat me to death. Thankfully, we were off of the blimp in an hour. I don't think I've ever been more excited to leave a vehicle.

Sinewa dismounted Tempredormu and began walking down Orgrimmar without me. Quickly doing the same, I ran to catch up. Looking behind me, I watched the drake return to the blimp and begin his journey back to Northrend. Refocusing myself, I remembered that being in Orgrimmar was the most dangerous place for me to be since I was human.

"Sinewa, is this really a good idea to be strolling through the Horde Capital city since I'm a human?"

"No one will touch you. If anyone makes a move, I have been told to gut them like a fish."

"That's pleasant," I sighed.

At first no one really noticed me, but it was not long before an Orc from the crowd shouted unpleasant things at me. Sinewa grabbed my wrist and pulled me closer to her. Perhaps she's showing that I'm a prisoner? Nah, she would have a sword at my back if she wanted to show her dominance. Maybe she's showing that she will protect me from the other people. That doesn't really seem to be right either. A Blood Elf hunter walked up to Sinewa. What's going to happen now?

"Hiya Sin, I see that you brought the human with you. People's blades are getting pretty blood hunger, if you catch my drift. I suggest you hurry and take her to Thrall."

"Alright, thank you Farra Jenkins."

Sinewa tugged me down the path and into the area where the warchief was. Thrall was a normal orc with black hair and green skin. However, I knew from playing the game he was one who wanted peace and left his anger toward the Alliance, especially humans, behind. He stood with his gold and black armor donned.

"Throm-Ka Noel, welcome to Orgrimmar." The leader greeted.

"Thank you for welcoming me, Warchief Thrall."

He nodded and I noticed Sinewa leave me standing there and walk to the warchief. She quietly talked to him, but it was far too quiet for me to make out. It was then that I noticed a red orc standing off to the side. Garrosh Hellscream, the leader of the Outland orcs. He looks less than thrilled to see me. His blood red eyes studied me closely. Meekly smiling, I watch him. The orc huffed and looked away. Like most orcs, it was clear he was disgusted by my presence in capital. Thrall ndded and returned his attention to me.

"It seems you may know more about our world than I originally suspected. If you don't mind, I would like to ask how."

"I suppose the best way to explain it where I am from we are… Hmm… Able to peer into other worlds. I'm not the only one that is able. We tend to peer into other worlds when we have free time. It's always interesting to see what other worlds are like."

"I see," he said sizing me up.

"Err… Is something wrong?"

He waved his has as if sweeping my concern away, "No, I've just noticed that you're not nervous."

"Oh," I said while rubbing the back of my neck.

Thoughts ran through my brain. Of course I'm not nervous, you're like the nicest orc and the best leader that the Horde will probably ever have. However, he has a point… Thank goodness I'm at least clothed in this cloth armor. It'd be more awkward if I was still in my pajamas.

"How much do you know of the Alliance? I will not be asking you to divulge information."

"Not much really, I didn't really find them interesting."

"Hah," laughed Garrosh, "that's because they are a weak worms beneath our boots!"

"Garrosh, you know that anger is only going to lead our people do destruction," Thrall calmly rebuked.

The scolded orc made no attempt to defend himself. After reading much about him, I already knew that if he were to change it would have to be by a divine beam of light shooting through and breaking through that cold, blood covered stone heart of his. If Thrall ever leaves, we'll be left with this jerk. I seriously doubt that Blizzard would ever remove Thrall from his position. Realistically, Garrosh couldn't handle the Horde. He's all war and Thrall is all about putting the past behind us for the good of the people.

Directing his attention back to me, Thrall stated, "That's a surprise. I would've thought that humans would tend to learn more about humans."

"Not in my case. Many people my age do tend to watch the Alliance, but since my Dad and I… Hmm… Peer into this world, we tend to watch the Horde more. We have certain members of the Horde that we pay attention to."

"And?"

"This sounds kinda stalker-like, but I actually watch Sinewa. She's been my favorite for a while."

Sinewa raised an eyebrow at me and I let out a half nervous and half embarrassed laugh. Thrall looked over to Sinewa and began to quietly talk to her.

"WHAT?" she exclaimed, "She's HUMAN!"

He continued to talk to her and I could hear a drawn out sigh come from Sin, "If that's what you want sir."

"Then it's settled," he began, "In good conscious, I cannot allow you to go to the Alliance that you know so little about. If this becomes an issue I will… Find a way to discuss your presence in the Horde. Sinewa will guard you when you enter a Horde city, though I do suggest you wear a Horde Insignia somewhere on you."

I was shocked! Thrall was allowing me to be a part of the Horde?

"Won't this cause distress among the other Horde members? I'm a human."

"I'll see to it that the other leaders know about your presence and will not harm you."

"T-Thank you!"

"Come Noel, we must be heading back to Northrend now."

Once again, Sinewa had me follow her through Orgrimmar. We took the blimp to the Northrend, but as we entered the Borean Tundra it was clear that she had something in mind. She pulled out a small wooden whistle and blew on it. A Celestial Steed made its way toward us, landing ever so gently on the deck. Its glowing eyes were white while its transparent blue body showed an internal constellation; essentially it was the steed's skeleton.

"This is Cela," Sinewa spoke calmly, "Since you are now under my protection, you will need a mount that will be able to keep up with me."

I was still in too much awe to realize that she had slipped Cela's whistle into my hand.

"Take good care of her; she is quite an interesting creature."

"Yes, thank you, I will do my best!"

"Mount up, we need to see exactly what class you are going to be," she said mounting her Armored Blue Windrider and soaring off.

"W-Wait for me!" I cried out trying to mount the horse.

Cela patiently waited for me to mount and, once I had, quickly tried to catch up. Sinewa was waiting on the ground that was vacant of enemies. It appeared that we were supposed to land. When I dismounted she drew her swords.

"Now… In order to determine your class we must see how well you fight."

Worried I asked, "Woah, woah, isn't that like dangerous?"

"It is if you're not prepared."

She leapt forward and swung at me. I yelped and began to run away as I had nearly been hit. The warrior let out a cackle as she chased me around the area.

"You can't hope to defeat me by running!" she shouted.

"I don't need to fight you all I have to do is keep running!"

"You can't run forever."

"I sure can try!"

Sinewa was right; I was already tired from running around like a moron. Panting, I turned around and faced her. This time she charged at me, but once again I managed to dodge the attack. No matter how many times she swung at me I managed to dodge. Eventually, I began to run away again. This time I ran to the steed and shot up into the air where the warrior could not get to me unless she wanted to try and do flight combat.

"Are you really so cowardly that you will fly?" she yelled to me.

"No, I just don't know how to fight or even own a weapon."

She shook her head and motioned for me to come down. I kept Cela high in the air until Sinewa sheathed her swords.

"Well, I did eliminate some classes that you could have been in during our practice."

"Practice? You just chased me around swinging your swords at me."

She smiled, "Of course. Anyway, you're certainly not a warrior or paladin. They're bold and charge head long into battle. You're too afraid. I doubt that you'd be a rogue, though I'll admit you're able to dodge like one."

I was not sure if I should be happy or insulted. Well, duh! Of course I was afraid. There's a zombie lady chasing me while swinging swords and yelling at me. I mean that really creepy! I simply nodded to the warrior and waited.

"For now human, we will rest. Training will continue tomorrow."

That's just peachy keen…
