The Exodus Of The Quel'Dorei. By Elenai. (Story as told by an elven narrator) I was there... There as a young priest of the light studying in a chapel of Silvermoon. When I looked out the window to see the daily flocks of birds go by. But strangely they were absent. Then on the horizon I saw a black haze and focusing my elven eyes I saw massive plumes of black smoke and circling their form were great flocks of carrion birds. Then I gazed in absolute petrification as a vast explosion of blue roared upward, the unmistakenable sign that one of the enchanted elf gates had fallen. Then I heared the wail of our ranger-general as she was raised into eternal undeath. Then the winds brought me ill tidings fore the hollow blast of a horn sang our doom and the ring of the elven bells signaled a retreat. I then ran out into the streets just in time to see the fallen prince Arthas crash through the inner gate with a horde of rotting flesh and bones for his escort. Then summoning all the power of the light I began to banish and exorcise the foul rot that had defiled our streets and groves. But to no avail. They pushed me back to the The Temple Of Silvermoon and on its steps I was overwelmed was almost slaughtered. But they backed away and a path was made for the fallen prince. Then the strangest thing occured, Arthas the ruthless, Arthas the murderous just sat there on his nightmare steed and with one vexed glance rode by. It was strange to me and I don't know why he I was spared. It may have been that for one brief moment his humanity resurfaced for one more gasp of breath before it died. He then stepped off his steed and strode up the steps of the temple. Then laughing maniacly he began to preach in a voice so cold, those words ring in my ears to this day. "Hahaha, What fools are you to trust in The Light for it has failed and when darkness and undeath sweep this world the darkness will prevail and The Light swallowed by the Burning Legion. This temple will signal the final doom of all elven kind fore when I destroy the light of their souls I shall also take the light of their hands." And with that monolougue he took an one of our elven devices, a "Novare Belore" one of our most powerful arcane explosives forged and devised in the arcane spires of our city and tested in Dalaran. After killing the priests he placed it with on the altar set the sand timer and he walked out reveling in his evil laughter. And the temple behind him flew in pieces to the skies in a great pillar of azure light. And in its ruins I wept and crawling away I went to gather survivors and take them away from the battle field. Little did I know that this day would echo through out the halls of history. Fore soon me and my bretheren were retreating along the shores of the river toward Caer Darrow making our way through the dying forests and blight learning that Dalaran had been destroyed and that the mages were killed, But on we trudged. We then found ourselves getting ill and our faces grew pale as snow. It was then that we realized that the light of our hands our power the Sunwell had made us addicted to arcane magic and we began to suffer as we scavenged any arcane scource we could find even the crystal lamps that follwed the road. And finally as we made it to the raining beaches of the Dwarrowmere we collapsed fainting one by one into exaustion and withdrawl. I looked up slowly so weak I was and I began to pray to the light, oh how I prayed that day for my people to be saved from their suffering. Then the thundering sky was ripped open and from the heavens came a light so pure white and gold. It descending down and was our salvation. The sun himself an avatar of light Elenai'Belore had come down to bless us. Campaign being made by team Elenai and anyone else who wants to help at this point. Progress: Revamped several times over two years. : models NotFinished : skins NotFinished : Story NotFinished : Terrain NotStarted : Triggers/Cinematics NotStarted : spells NS : music and sounds NotStarted Gameplay: Gamplay will involve normal campaign elements like skirmish map battles along with specialized elements like covert style search and destroy missions with a hero and an escort, or making a massive organized withdraw and many other styles of play all told in a well made cinematic (I hope). This is a project of mine over the making of two years but has been revamped several times what with lore changes and my abilities growing and new models and story inspiration becoming available. This latest revamp has left me with a fresh start and new models skins are to be made and help is always appreciated. (get those gnomes moving) |

You need more info, specifically about gameplay. You have nothing on the gameplay. And please, fix the formatting. It does people's head in. |
