Hello everyone!
Last time we rallied our forces for the defense of Ardenweald but despite our best efforts,
the jailer was still able to get his hands on the sigil of the winterqueen.
The forces of the maw are assaulting Oribos so a counter attack would be really nice,
but not everyone is a super duper special maw walker like we are.
The waystone connected to the first ones only responded to us and while we’ve been able
to escort a few of our allies at a time, it would be really nice to be able to transport
an entire army.
The might of our covenants taking the battle straight to the jailer.
“Fatescribe Roh- Tahl has sensed the emergence of a second waystone within the Maw, though
he does not know its location.
Your anima awakened the first waystone.
It has allowed you to lead some of your allies to safety.
I will create an anchor to your anima here in Oribos.
Activating the second waystone should connect it to my anchor.
I believe this bond will enable our covenant forces to leave the maw, just as you can do.”
Connecting oribos to the maw like that is not a choice they make lightly, but they have
no other options.
Onwards to the maw we go to have a chat with Ven’nari, see if our trusted broker friend
can help us set this up.
“The jailer has used enormous chains to pull a broken realm into the maw.
I caught only a glimpse, but i have a suspicion of what it might be.
I suggest we travel there together.
While you search for your waystone, I will determine what potential profits lie in store.
For both of us I mean.
“Reports I intercepted from the mawsworn indicate that the jailer has been seeking
a realm called Korthia.
My fellow brokers whisper legends of this place.
A magnificent city filled with treasures, its location a closely guarded secret.
Be on alert.
No doubt the jailers eye will be upon this place.
I have the means to keep us hidden, as I have before.
Stay close and obey my every word, lest the jailers eye reduce you to stygia.”
“It seems the eye cannot peer into korthia.
Our search must proceed without it.
No matter.
The banished one shall have his prize.
There must be strong magic in korthia if it keeps the eye at bay.
Perhaps the legends are true...”
The eye of the jailer has been a problem for us ever since we started partying in the maw.
Hang out too long, do too much and the eye notices, the jailers influence making sure
that we couldn’t stay any longer and had to come back another day.
We learned from Mueh’zalah in the other side dungeon that the jailer’s eye is actually
keeper Odyn’s eye.
A long time ago, Odyn wanted to ferry worthy souls up to his halls of valor and turn them
into valarjar, but he had no means to do so.
With the aid of helya they performed a ritual, got in touch with a wraith or Mueh’zala
as we now know.
Odyn sacrificed one of his eyes and gazed upon the shadowlands, learned how to make
his valkyr and as it turns out, his eye has been put to good use.
Powerful, but not powerful enough to gaze into Korthia.
Cutscene: Not.
A. Word.
Eye of the jailer does a sweep, gazing upon this mystical hidden realm of Korthia.
Let the eye of sauron see youur secrets silly land.
This silly wall won’t stop me but ahhh it seems it does.
I bet we won’t have a problem going through the wall though.
We are wallwalkers after all.
“We must reach our destination before my cloak dissipates.
Oh, and watch your step.”
“Stop!”
Bwaaaaamp theres the eye again.
Ellow eye, dont be suspicious dont be suspicioussssss.
Just move away now.
Move!”
“It seems korthia is shielded against the eye of the jailer, but his mawsworn are breaching
its defenses.
We made it.
Imagine the wonders to be found here, maw walker!
Oh and that waystone of yours as well.”
“Hmm now that is interesting.
I detect attendants nearby, like those in Oribos.
Perhaps they are the caretakers of korthia’s treasures.
You go on ahead.
I will llinger here.
To ensure no enemies have trailed us, of course.”
Tal- Galan :
“ Increase our patrols.
We cannot let the mawsworn reach – Another of the jailer’s agents!?
Strike them down!”
“Hold!
This is a living mortal – the maw walker!
Not some servant of the jailer.
A maw walker?
Fascinating!
I have studied the prophecies but...
Oh, forgive me.
I am Tal- Galan, keeper of secrets.”
“Come.
We have much to discuss.
So this is Korthia.
I expected something a bit moe grand.
You should have seen in its prime, broker.
Korthia is or was the city of secrets.
My order was charged with safeguarding knowledge and artifacts, things deemed too precious
to risk falling into malicious hands.
Korthia was hidden deep within the in between, safely out of reach...until the jailer’s
chains found us.
The banished one seeks our most precious treasure and is willing to destroy our entire existence
to claim it.”
“Much of my knowledge is purely academic.
I must explore your anima to learn more.
Hold still.
Ah ... yes.
You have a connection to a unique world soul, as it was foretold.
But has that prepared you for what is to come?
We must find out.
Stop this ridiculous investigation before you kill the only one who can help you!
The scrolls specified that the true maw walker must be empowered.
IT is my duty to proceed.
Release the maw walker at once, or suffer the consequences!
It is true.
You are the mawwalker!
And now your anima is stronger than ever.
We of korthia are at your service.”
“I need an adult.
I AM AN ADULT.”
No longer shall we be known as Mawwalkers, now we are the true mawwalkers, spoken off
in prophecy.
“jeeej” They don’t call this place city of secrets without a reason, as more of its
history and knowledge will reveal itself over time.
Being dragged into the maw has done quite a bit of damage to the place.
For now it’s important to know that it houses things the jailer really wants to get his
hands on, which isn’t good for us.
On the other hand, the jailer has been kind enough to drag in a piece of land that houses
just what we need.
A waystone capable of transporting all that we need.
It’s our lucky day I guess, but still no solid explenation as to why the waystone only
responded to us.
They do make mention of us being connected to a special world soul, Azeroth still slumbering.
There were also bits here and there hinting at the jailer specificly aiming for azeroth,
but hopefully we’ll get something conclusive in the future besides it being written in
the stars.
“ I think it best to remain concelaed while you activate this waystone.
Remember, maw walker, our business is not yet concluded.”
“The maw walker returns.
The second waystone has been found.
Fine work, maw walker.”
“Farewell, bolvar fordragon.
May the purpose guide you.
Goodbye, Tal-Inara.
The ebon blade will defend oribos until we return.”
“BOlvar Fordragon, i saw your visage within the streams of the maw walker’s anima.
Good then there is no need for introductions.
We’ve come to push back against the jailer’s forces.
You have my thanks.
The mawsworn seek to plunder our secrets.”
Bolvar himself steps through the gateway into the newly dragged in Korthia which is quite
the change from his stance at the start of the expansion.
He couldn’t come with us into the maw out of fear of becoming bound to the will of the
jailer and I kinda wonder what has changed since then.
The jailer has only become more powerful and influential.
Just peering into the maw filled Bolvar with dread and with good reason.
Times change I guess?
Desperate times call for desperate measures?
All the same, he’s here with us as well as our covenant forces.
This so called Death’s Advance will work together against the jailer, slowly but surely
make our way to his sanctum of domination.
Even the brokers are brave enough to come with us now.
Ta’nasi of Cartel Ta explains that ‘the acquisition of korthia by the maw has presented
a number of opportunities to learn and expand our knowledge of the realm.
With a bit of risk, of course, but secrets are rarely cheap and obvious.
What we learn here might prove invaluable.’
Looks like Venari is not the only one interested in this place.
The brokers allegiance and ultimate goals are still kept in the dark.
So far they keep themselves busy with gathering informatuion and helping us out so that all
works out, but there are still those keen on finding venari.
So far the mawwalker has kept their mouth shut and kept venari safe, but with more brokers
coming in and them knowing that venari is somewhere in the maw...
I wonder how that will play out.
We’re well on our way of setting up base within the maw and over time we’ll dive
deeper into the history of Korthia.
No longer do have to struggle by ourselves, we got the full might of our covenants coming
in.
There is still that pesky eye of the jailer to worry about, but that will be a concern
for next time.
For now thank you very much for watching evryone!
