Description
Your skills in combat are impressive, <name>.
We are rotating our next round of reserves into active duty, and they need to sharpen their skills.
While Alleria fills me in on Xal'atath, I would appreciate if you could help with their training.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 23 40
- 11,150 XP
Progress
The tricks they learn from you today will help them survive a difficult encounter later.
Completion
Thank you.
What they learnt from you will no doubt save their lives later.
Notes
On accept:
- General Steelstrike says: Auralia, send a runner to Faerin's new elf friend. We need to talk.
- General Steelstrike says: Faerin tells me your friend wields the Void.
- General Steelstrike says: I'm either going to regret meeting her or thank the Flame.
Speak with any Arathi Reserve:
It is an honor to serve the Arathi people.
Your general asked me to spar with you.
Aggro:
- Arathi Reserve says: Come. Let me learn from you.
- Arathi Reserve says: I am blessed by Beledar. I won't be beaten!
- Arathi Reserve says: I can see you are strong. Teach me.
- Arathi Reserve says: If the general thinks you are good, you must be really good!
- Arathi Reserve says: Let's see if you fight better than an Arathi!
- Arathi Reserve says: My skills with a blade are unmatched!
Shortly after entering combat, they'll sometimes cheat and have another nearby Reserve join them in battle:
- Arathi Reserve says: Twice the fight, twice the glory!
- Arathi Reserve says: Maybe two on one can provide you with a challenge!
- Arathi Reserve says: The nerubians often fight two on one!
Defeat:
- Arathi Reserve says: Wow, that was instructional. Thank you!
- Arathi Reserve says: I yield! Light of the Flame, you don't pull your punches!
- Arathi Reserve says: Hah, ow. Thank you, I learned a lot from that!
- Arathi Reserve says: I still have all my extremities. Given how you fight, I'll consider that a win!
- Arathi Reserve says: Ooph! You'd give Great Kyron a run for their money!
On return, Alleria has arrived:
- General Steelstrike says: The Harbinger is from the Black Empire? Flames... One of the Old Gods?
- Alleria Windrunner says: No. Something else. A survivor from the depths of time.
On complete, General Steelstrike has a new <Stay a while and listen.> gossip option:
- Steelstrike starts walking out onto the wall to look up at Beledar.
- General Steelstrike says: Walk with me for a bit, outsider. I assume Faerin has told you of how we came to this strange land.
- General Steelstrike says: "The Emperor's Vision", a prophecy of light, battle, and victory for the Arathi and the Sacred Flame.
- General Steelstrike says: I was newly raised to my position. Being entrusted to seek out an imperial prophecy was a great honor.
- General Steelstrike says: Our armada braved the Storming Sea and its impassable tempests. I thought that final storm was sure to scuttle every airship.
- General Steelstrike says: Instead there was a radiant flash. The Emperor's Vision, exactly as he had foreseen.
- General Steelstrike says: The light transported us beneath the surface of Azeroth, but still under the light of this star we named Beledar.
- General Steelstrike says: So many died as the armada crashed into the cliffs. We thought the Eternal Flame of Arathor snuffed out that day.
- General Steelstrike says: Then as we labored to rescue this stowaway child, Faerin, we discovered that she had preserved embers of the flame, at risk to her own life.
- General Steelstrike says: Brave fool. Yet I'm eternally grateful that she held on to that symbol of hope. Don't tell her I said that.
- General Steelstrike says: Years later, there was a great rumble. We thought the cavern was going to collapse. It was the Day of Darkness, the first time Beledar shifted to shadow.
- Steelstrike starts walking back to the barracks.
- General Steelstrike says: We had put down roots by then, my soldiers left to make homes for themselves. They started families. Flames help me, there are children now.
- General Steelstrike says: I've had too many years of defending against the monsters that go bump in the night. Great Kyron and their Lamplighters guided us through the darkness.
- General Steelstrike says: But like Faerin, they mistake saving for safeguarding. My people are brave and strong, but they are not all Flame blessed heroes.
- General Steelstrike says: I know exactly how many soldiers we lose to the dark. If we play it safe, we might survive long enough for me to put my grandchildren on the front line.
- General Steelstrike says: I welcome you, outsider. I hope your people's arrival, and the earthen's reunification means better days for Mereldar.
- General Steelstrike says: But I fear we have just made ourselves a bigger target for the dark.
