Tragic Loss in Durotar

This photo journal is created for my goblin mage. Many of the references made in these entries are things only guild members or those who RP with the group would get. My apologies!

Snabblescrew reporting here. I'd like you to meet Misha Tor'kren. Misha lives in Durotar southeast of Orgrimmar and toils away to keep herself alive by maintaining a small herd of swine. This is not an easy task on the unforgiving hard packed soil of Durotar.

Misha is alone. She raised three children alone. She tends her ranch alone. And she grieves alone. Oh sure, Misha has family... her brother-in-law Negragh and his adopted daughter Bryndis live and work in Orgrimmar as bankers. Two of her sons, Karnig and Tausik, work for the Mistreavers... oh yes, the Mistreavers again.

But today Misha is even more alone, for today marks a year ago that her youngest son, Kron, went missing... presumed dead. Misha hides her grief as best she can as she toils away on a token of her love to place on his gravesite, a grave that lacks any actual body. Her gnarled fingers tremble with effort as she works each of the crocolisk teeth brought to her by adventurers into a necklace fit for "only the bravest young orcs".

A mother will have her bias I suppose... but let's look at how wonderful Misha's children really are! Kron, the little hothead, refused to heed his mother's warning that the fierce crocolisks of the Southfury River were too much for him. Without even saying a proper farewell he stormed off to get himself killed, leaving his mother without even the closure of a corpse to bury.

And then there's the twins, Karnig and Tausik, who... knowing their mother grieved for the loss of their younger brother, STILL didn't come home to console her. Instead they are off pretending to be warriors with the Mistreavers, who encourage this deviant behavior! Neither boy even bothers to send a note with scribbled green crayon or a few copper pieces to remind their mother that they appreciate her efforts in raising them as a single mother in a Man's World.

I blame Talmai Boldrunner, he's the Syndicate leader for Mistreavers and is directly responsible for Karnig Tor'kren... who is obviously the brains between the Tor'kren Twins. Everyone should petition Talmai to pay compensation to poor Misha for the years she has lost due to his cold heartedness.

If he doesn't listen, and I doubt he will, go over his head and speak to the leader of the Mistreavers... Korouk! Let his inbox be filled with your petitions!

Author's Note: Karnig and Tausik are characters played by me and my husband (both hunters). Negragh is my "bank alt" and Bryndis is a friend's "bank alt". All these characters have used Misha and Kron as part of their backstory. Yes, we even made backstories for our bank alts. We're THAT nerdy.
