Imvula yayinamandla ku-Draenor, njengoba ama-orcs ayeshayisana ukuze aqede ukomela kwawo igazi, nemifula yentukuthelo yagcwala emithanjeni yabo emidlalweni yokufa, uBurghok, umfundi osemncane wobuciko be-shamanic owayenza endlini yakhe, ezama ukuhlanganisa amandla aphansi. Wayenomlingiswa oziqhenyayo, wayecabanga ukuthi ungcono kunabo bonke abangane bakhe, ngaphansi kwethonya lomeluleki wakhe, uNaman'zhul omdala, uBurghok wanikela ngaso sonke isikhathi sakhe ekubeni yinkosi enkulu yamandla emvelo. Yize ayemncane kakhulu, wayesevele esefundile imikhakha eminingi yobungcweti be-shamanistic. Kodwa-ke, kunokuthile okwakungathandwa yisangoma endala ngaye, futhi kwakuwumshikashika wakhe wokuba ngophambili, isimo sokuncintisana ayenaso nabangane bakhe sakhombisa uhlangothi olumnyama kuye, isici esimnyama okungekho muntu owayecabanga ukuthi yini woza Ukwenza. Wayekholelwa ukuthi ama-orcs ayedlula ama-draenei ayehlala ku-Draenor, wayebazonda futhi ukucabanga kwabo kwamnenga futhi yize amakhono abo ayengewona aweqhawe le-orc, ukoma kwegazi kwakudlula emithanjeni yakhe. Wayefuna ukukhombisa wonke umuntu ukuthi wayengaseyena umuntu ofundiswayo, wahlela ukubafundisa lokho akwazi ukukwenza, futhi ukuzimisela kwakhe nokukhohlisa kwakhe kwamenza wakwazi ukukwenza kakhulu ukwedlula abanye oshaman.
Ngenye intambama ebandayo waya emazweni okwakutshalwa yi-draenei, kwakukhona isigodi esincane, esasihlala imindeni eyayinikela isikhathi sayo kwezolimo kanye nemikhuba yabo yokuhambisa amanzi, ngokunyenya wabheka indlela abenza ngayo, walinda ukuthi ubusuku bufike kuphele lezo zidalwa ezinokuthula nezingenakuzivikela. Lapho ilanga elincane liwa futhi ubumnyama buthatha uDraenor, uBurghok wangena eqhugwaneni elincane, lapho ubaba wayelala khona nomkakhe nezingane zakhe ezimbili, nangamandla ayebusa kakhulu kuwo, lawo omlilo, nangesenzo sobudlova obukhulu, wabulala owesifazane nezingane, balondoloze i-draenei okokugcina, ukuzama isiko abefisa ukulizama. U-draenei, lapho ebona ukuthi umkakhe nezingane balahlekelwe yizimpilo zabo ngenxa ye-orc embi, amehlo akhe agcwala intukuthelo futhi eceleni kwakhe wazama ukubulala uBurghok ngeze, ngoba i-orc iphatha kalula ngemibani eminingi, ukuze kubangele amanxeba ajulile futhi abulalayo kuma-draenei ampofu. Ngemuva kokuphela kokubulala, uBurghok waqala umkhuba ayewutholile encwadini endala ayintshontshe kuMentor Ner'zhul wakhe, eyabhalwa nguye, igama lakhe lakhanga kakhulu "Indlela yokuvusa abafileyo." Yize wayengazi kahle ukuthi yini engenzeka, ngoba wayengakaze akwenze, wabeka isibindi nokuzimisela kwakhe waqhubeka nomkhuba, amazwi ahlebeza endlebeni yakhe, ngenkathi amandla amnyama ethatha umzimba wakhe, ukuthi imilingo kwakungeyona leyo wayeke wakwenza ngaphambilini, kwakuwumlingo omnyama, umlingo omnyama, ayengakwazi ukuwulawula, ukukhanya okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka okwakukhanyiswa amandla egumbini futhi wayebona ethukile ukuthi i-corpene draenei yakuthola kanjani ukunyakaza kwakhe, wabona ngokwesaba okwakwenzeka nokwethuka waphazamisa isiko futhi wagijima wabuyela ekhaya lakhe esigodini se-orc. Ngalobo busuku akakwazanga ukulala, amazwi ayelokhu emhlebela futhi insizwa encane yayingazi ukuthi ivelaphi, lokho eyayikubone emahoreni adlule kwakungekho ncazelo ngaye. Inkosi yakhe yayiyithathephi le nkambiso embi kangaka?
Ngosuku olulandelayo ama-orc warriors ayehlele ukuhlasela izidalwa eziluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, ahlela ukuhlasela okubulalayo ngakuma-cabins asempumalanga, izinhloso zalokhu kuhlaselwa zazingelutho olunye ngaphandle kokucima ukoma kwawo igazi nokuthatha lawo mazwe, lapho efika elinye lamadolobhana lathola ukuthi kwakungekho mkhondo we-draenei, babebaleke emahoreni ambalwa ngaphambili futhi umhlaba waba mnyama futhi awunalutho, izitshalo i-draenei eyayizihlwanyelile zazibunile nephunga lokubola lalisemoyeni. Bahlola amakamelo futhi kwesinye sazo bathola isidalwa, sasinesibalo esifana nesika-draenei, kodwa sasinamanxeba ajulile umzimba wonke futhi sasibonakala ngathi asilawuli izenzo zaso, sanikeza isithombe sokuthi wayelinde uku-oda okuthile, ama-orcs awakwazanga ukuchaza ukuthi amanxeba okufa awazange amqede kanjani. Bekholelwa ukuthi kwakuwuhlobo oluthile lokuthakatha, bambopha bamusa edolobhaneni le-orc, ukuphenya ukuthi kwenzekeni kuleso sidalwa.
UNer'zhul, umholi we-shaman wama-orcs, wakhombisa intshisekelo enkulu kuleli cala, futhi wafuna ukuliphenya ngasese, wathola ukuthi lo muntu wayengekho ngaphezulu noma ngaphansi kokudala i-necromancy, lobo buciko ayezama ukubazi . Kodwa-ke, isiko lalingakaqedwa, lokho kudalwa kwakungekho isinyathelo sokugcina, ingqondo ebophezelayo yomnikazi wayo, okwakubonakala sengathi ayitholi. UNer'zhul wakhumbula ukuthi lo mkhuba wayewubhale kwenye yezincwadi zakhe futhi wavele waya emtatsheni wakhe wezincwadi, waqinisekisa ukuthi impela incwadi yakhe yesiko yayisinyamalele, incwadi ayekade ebhala kuyo yonke into eyavela emaphusheni akhe, uvalo waqala ukuyifuna yonke indawo, kepha akayitholi. Ngemuva kokuthola ukuthi leyo mikhuba yenzani, wabona ukuthi amandla aphakeme angaba nesifiso sokuncintisana ngohlanga lwakhe, esaba ukulahla ama-orcs ukuze agqilazwe yilobo buciko, uNer'zhul wanquma ukungaphindi awenze noma awubhale futhi. UNer'zhul wanquma ukubulala leyonto engakaqedwa, futhi ngawo lowo mzuzu, ukuhleba engqondweni kaBurghok kwaphela.
UBurghok wayesesaba embhedeni wakhe, yize lezo zinhlebo zazimile, wayengazi ukuthi uzotholani, eduze kwakhe etafuleni kukhona incwadi ayeyintshontshile kwaNer'zhul, wayesaba ukuthi uNer'zhul ngizokuthola futhi ahlele ukuthi angamsusa kanjani. Waphuma waya enkambeni walalela lapho amaqhawe e-Orc ephawula ngokwenzekile ngayizolo, ukuthi i-draenei ilethwe kulo muzi nokuthi uNer'zhul wayise eqhugwaneni lakhe. Kwakufanele ayilahle leyo ncwadi ngokushesha okukhulu, uma uthisha wakhe ethola ukuthi isijeziso singabulala. Akakwazanga ukuyibuyisela kumnikazi wayo, ngoba nakanjani wayezokuqaphela ukungabi bikho kwayo, ngakho-ke wabheka izindlela ezimbili, wayisusa, noma wayifihla endlini yomuntu othile, ukuze uNer'zhul akholelwe ukuthi omunye umuntu unecala leso senzo. Kwakukhona umlingani uBurghok ayencintisana naye, isitha sakhe esikhulu njengomfundi, wayecabanga ukuthi kungaba ngumqondo omuhle ukumnikeza le ncwadi ngaphandle kokuthi yena azi, lokho kungasusa amaphuzu phambi kukaNer'zhul uma eyithola futhi mhlawumbe wayezoyeka ukumyalela, ukuthi Umfundi ayefuna ukumkhipha kulo mdlalo kwakungeyena omunye ngaphandle kukaGul'dan.
Khonamanjalo uNer'zhul wayefuna le ncwadi, kwakumele ayithole, uma iwela ezandleni ezingafanele ingadala umonakalo omkhulu, wayengeke avumele umjaho wakhe, ophuphuthekiswe ngamandla, ukuba ucishe wona uqobo. Ngenkathi uGul'dan enza imilingo emikhakheni yaseDraenor, uBurghok wangena egumbini lakhe washiya incwadi esikhwameni sakhe, lapho ayephatha khona amanothi akhe nezinye izincwadi zokupela, washiya lo muzi, walayisha ubhaka wakhe nokudla namanzi, wasuka esixukwini wazindla ngokwenzekile. Kwamthatha izinsuku ezimbalwa ukuthi abuyele kulo muzi, kepha uBurghok wayengalindelanga ukuthi yini azoyibona ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezizayo. Konke kwakusesejwayelekile, ngathi akwenzekanga lutho, wayedidekile, ngabe uNer'zhul ngabe uyitholile incwadi yakhe? Kwakwenzekeni kuGul'dan? Ukubheka ukuthi kwenzekeni, wavakashela uGul'dan, owamngenisa endlini bahlala bobabili etafuleni.
