"A New Beginning?"

A WARCRAFT 2 scenario
by Snow [100577.375@compuserve.com]


In a surprise attack Orgrim Doomhammer has destroyed Lothar's
castle and captured him and his advisors. Uther Lightbringer
escaped and made for the woods. But Doomhammers guard already
waited for him.

With a wicked grin the the orc captain raised his axe - and
keeled over! Uther didn't believe his eyes when a score of
orcs and trolls leaped from the trees and attacked the orc
guards! They paid a high price, but eventually his rescuers
managed to defeat the guards. Their leader walked up to Uther
who recogized him immediately. Before him stood Gul'dan.
Gul'dan studied Uther and started to speak.

"We'll never be friends, but we are... we have to be allies
now. War Chief Doomhammer has learned of certain... plans of
mine and tried to kill me. Using my magics I barely managed
to escaped with a few of my followers. You don't have to like
this any more than I do, but... we'll have to team up and fight
Doomhammer - or none of us is going to survive this war..."

Uther looked at Gul'dan in surprise and wondered, was this going
to be a new beginning?
