The protection of the valley isn't as much a forcefield as it is spells to prevent people from finding the place. If you approach it uninvited and unknowingly, you will most likely 'just happen' to take a wrong turn and never find the path at all, not realising that the wards are encouraging you to walk the other direction. If you are aware of where it is you might notice this urge and realise that it is supernatural. And even if you get by that, the path itself is incredibly hard to spot, hidden both by physical obstacles as well as mild illusions that make it trickier to spot.

Once you do enter the valley, there are wards that pretty much serve as alarms, alerting anyone connected to the Heritage's Spirit Link that a stranger enter the valley. Unless they're stealthed, the wards only pick up visible people.

It is not impossible for you to find and enter the valley, but I ask that you think very carefully about the effects you doing that will have. It would sadden me to be forced to the point where I have to make Ry decide to leave the valley since it's no longer safe to live in. We love to rp there, and we're likely to lose it with Cataclysm, so we want to make the best of it until then Smile

I'm sure you understand.

Ryleen sat perched on one of the big rocks lining the path up the steep hills. From here, she could just barely make out the silouette of the oil rig between the trees in the distance.

That was as close as she'd dare go at this point.

Part of her wanted to sneak over there and set the place on fire. Again. It had brought an undeniable sense of satisfaction the first time they'd wrecked the place for the goblins who used to own it. Or maybe she could ask one of the shamans to talk to the spirits of the earth, pinch the hole leading down to the oil shut. At least that'd delay the work.

But it would have to wait. This new plan was much more interesting. She looked forward to hearing the results once it was set in motion. But for now, all she could do was wait for Razéal's return. Hopefully he'd have the objects they needed when he came back from the north.

She couldn't help but grin to herself as she stood up and begun the climb up to her hidden home. Not exactly the revenge she had dreamt of, but she'd take what she could get...

The oil rig is in full working order and barrels of oil will be seen being teleported out.

“Do you...Have them?” Came the raspy voice of the hooded figure.

Standing opposite was a nervous sounding Blood Elf male, although he sounded nervous he covered it well with his confident stature.

“Of cause I have. You know me! But you know the deal...No delivery until I get the gold.” The Blood Elf grins widely at the hooded figure as he holds out his hand.

The figure pulls out a small yet sizeable bag, presumably containing gold and throws it to the Elf who fumbles as he catches it.

“They are not...From...The Undercity...Correct?” Growls the hooded figure as he crouches by the large sheet covered items.

“You told me not to. What kind of person do you take me for? Infact...Don’t answer that!”

“Where...Are they from...” The figure doesn’t seem interested in joking a sense of urgency in his voice.

“Venomspite...They look like what you were asking for.” The Blood Elf opens the small bag and peers in at the gold.

“Good...The House...Cannot find...These missing...”

“What do you want them for anyway? I thought you were trying to change your ways?” The Elf seem rather curious about the intentions.

The crouching figure turns its head slightly and looks up at the elf...The moonlight catching small features of his face, the most defining being that he only has one eye.

“The less...You know...The better...Now...Leave...”

“Not even a thank you? Ya know we really need to work on your people skills.” The Blood Elf sighs as he turns around the leaves.

Once out of sight the figure pulls back the shit revealing the items are infact two canisters of...Blight?!

To be continued... Twisted Evil

The oil rig stands eerily in the shadows on the night. Seemingly lifeless except from the occasional sight of a patrol. Expendable Forsaken...Nothing but cheap hired guards of The House. In the nearby darkness lurks another being, an unwelcome one at that. Behind it sits a large object on a wooden trailer covered by a sheet.

The figure steps out of the darkness cautiously, it’s features hidden by a hood, it scans the area checking if the coast is clear. Walking behind the trailer the figure begins to push the cargo along a bumpy dusty jungle path, stopping every now and then to check for the patrol.

The hooded figure emits a low growl as the patrol appears in sight and begins walking in it’s direction. Using the cover of night the figure abandons its post and conceals itself in the shadows as the patrol reaches the trailer and stops to investigate.

“What’s this all about?” One of the guards grunts as he prods at it with the tip of his blade.

“We got hired to keep people out didn’t we...Not to move barrels....Just leave it!” Replies another as he continues to walk along the path.

The third guard, who is missing his lower jaw grumbles some inaudible words that come out merely as huffs of air and gargles of saliva from his throat...The other two look at each other and then back at the verbally challenged one...Shaking their heads they begin to walk off leaving the abandoned trailer.

Once out of sight the hooded figure emerges from the shadows and continues to push the trailer towards the oil rig. It is clear he had already determined where this trailer will be left. Leaving the cover on the items he tucks it away out of obvious sight, unless The House were really looking for this they would just suspect it was another couple of oil barrels...But no...Under that sheet lurks a single barrel of Blight.

The figure turns and peers over its shoulder as the moon catches a glimpse of the features of the face...Just an eye patch.

Sinking back into the shadows as far as he knew it was mission accomplished...

Facts:
1) Raz had a two canisters of Blight "borrowed" by a Blood Elf friend of his...
2) Raz treked across that damned jungle lugging a barrel of Blight disguised as an oil barrel...The two canisters fit into one barrel...
3) Raz hid the barrel on the oil rig...The House wouldn't find it unless they were really looking for it...But should any external authority decide to carry out an inspection and do it properly being sure to check all barrels they will come across it...
4) As far as he knows he wasn't spotted as it was all done under the cover of night...

The Blight has gone unnoticed by Forsaken workers but the rig will be inspected sometime soon.

Blight was discovered, but Archnazg agreed to a full investigation into it with Katalmach. Also Katalmach has allowed to move against the Heritage should they threaten the oil operation.

"Also .. there is animals guarding Antu'Rha now. They are a total of 5 panthers al fairly young (not the cubs). Highly trained in stealth and combat by Hadunka.
Unless they have a reason to come out from hiding will no one notice them. A reason would be a unfriendly person trying to enter the valley ... stealthed or unstealthed. They are posted at the entrance to the valley and the entrance to the village."

This is of course only relevant should the wards be broken.

For those who weren't there:

Last night Ryleen got captured by the House of Sylvanas. Under threat of being poisoned they demanded that she go to the pact and take responsibility for the blight found on the oil rig (this without them knowing for sure that it's actually true! Very Happy

). She would also agree to anything the House said, making it seem like they were right to want to attack and wipe out the Heritage. And lastly, the Heritage would become vassals of the House. (I think that's all. Arch, correct me if I forgot something)

Fearing for the life of her baby, she agreed to everything what was said. In the end she was poisoned anyway, a slow working poison that would give the baby three days to live, and her five.

During all this, she had been calling for help over the spirit link. Kaz'jo, Chabat, Gen'jin and Lahni had located Alaster, and brought him with them to Undercity to rescue her. Alaster made clear that he was not there to rescue Ryleen, but her baby. The baby's father is Vaali Tzataluul, a councillor of the Ashen Order, and thus the baby is considered a part of the Order as well. He made clear that any harm done to the baby would be considered the House attacking the Order, and they would respond accordingly.

Ryleen was brought to Dalaran, where Alaster immediately started work on finding an antidote. She is currently staying in Vaali's home in Dalaran, and is under orders to stay there until an antidote has been found.
