Quest Log: Suit Up!
Who: Dragon mages and dragonsworn.
What: You have been given a quest to infiltrate Sin'thalas and rescue your fellow dragonsworn. Also discussion of scrying orbs.
Where: The sanctums.
When: May 4th and ongoing for a week.
Warnings: Please PM the mods if needed.
Despite the chaos surrounding the disappearances of several Dragonsworn, your sanctum's dragon mage is trying to be calm about this. After a brief discussion behind the scenes with the others, he or she has returned.
"Gather 'round, I have some grave news. Several Dragonsworn have gone missing. We found them, but we are unable to rescue them by ourselves. It would look very bad if dragons were to attack a settlement. That is why we are asking you for help.
"Southeast of Suramar is a village named Sin'thalas. It is these elves who have taken and imprisoned the Dragonsworn. Whether you negotiate or use force to ensure the return of your brethren, it will not be easy. These elves are highly-trained and knowledgeable, far from the refugees you may have seen in the Retreat.
"In light of this, we have implemented a system to communicate over great distances." The dragon mage unveils a magical orb nearby, the perfect size for gazing. "This is a scrying orb. Approach it and think of Sin'thalas, and you will be seen and heard from the orb at that location. It also works in reverse. This should allow us to coordinate our movements depending on the flow of the situation.
"I urge you to think carefully about how best to retrieve your fellow Dragonsworn. You are yet a small force and highly outnumbered. We cannot afford to lose any of you."
[ooc: If characters want to use the orbs,
lookingformore is now OPEN. Remember, orbs CANNOT connect from sanctum to sanctum!]

Can do.
[Quinn holds out her arm, and Valor promptly takes the cue to flutter upward, perching on her gauntlet.]
I can try and use that orb Krasus was talking about to update everyone, but I've never communicated through magic before.
no subject
Heh, yeah...afraid I can't help you there. I've never used crystal balls in my magic.
no subject
We have long range communications, but not magic back home. [unless you counted forerunner artifacts, and she did not - and didn't have experience with those besides.] May be worth asking Krasus for clearer instructions, getting access to another closer by might be difficult if the other flights prove territorial in answer to this attack.
