The Forgotten Chieftain's Wife Chapter 10

It took some time, but Lothar managed to convince Medivh to return with him to Stormwind. Well it certainly carried weight that Medivh couldn't refuse a royal summons. Doing so would ultimately go against his vows as the Guardian.

So Medivh left Karazhan in the care of his faithful aid Moroes departing for Stormwind with both Lothar and Khadgar. But, no, they didn't go using the gryphon Lothar originally flew them there on. Lothar had sent her off ordering her to return to Stormwind. He wasn't worried. She knew the way.

To save precious time Medivh used a spell to transport all three of them there within mere seconds.

At first when they arrived it appeared as if there might be some bad blood between the Guardian and the King. All eyed them closely to see how this meeting would turn out. The last Medivh and King Llane were face to face it did not end well because of the still missing Lyanna.

But they needn't have worried. After a few tense seconds went by King Llane embraced Medivh like one would do a long lost brother. Time had tempered the Kings anger to the point where he no longer held a grudge. Besides his people needed him now. This was not the time for any selfish vendettas. Not like there was one anyhow.

Medivh was quickly updated on the situation. Those mysterious monsters were attacking, destroying, and ransacking villages and people were disappearing along with them. They knew nothing about them. None of the other kingdoms were of any help. All seek the protection of Stormwind yet none trust them enough to tell anything as King Llane would say.

Lothar made the point that they needed prisoners. Even a corpse would yield to them more information than they already knew.

So it was decided that tomorrow a squad would be set out to see if they could find one of these monsters and capture it. A dead body was fine, but one that lived would be even better. That way they could question it. A prisoner was always valued more alive than dead.

Khadgar would be accompanying the squad at Medivh's behest much to Lothar's dismay and annoyance, but it couldn't be helped. They would need this young man's help.

So they all rested for the night conserving their strength. Hopefully tomorrow none of them bit off more than they could chew.
