Word is spreading across Azeroth that the much-beloved king of the dwarves has fallen ill, apparently from poisoning. Ironforge is onย Code Red until further notice, and security forces in Stormwind and Darnassus are also on their toes.
Of course the usual suspects are being watched very closely. The Defias Brotherhood has gone into hiding and there are reports of supplies being run into the Deadmines. The most likely suspect is Varimathras, currenlty calling Undercity his home base. Elven spies are reporting that streams of Undead alchemists are infiltrating the dwarven borders with tainted Arcanite Bars.
The king was holding court with his senators, including Senator Barin Redstone Monday night, when he excused himself from the table and went to his chambers. “He was looking a bit pale, if you ask me,” said the senator. “Personally, I think that Emperor Thaurissan has it out for our king. He is just upset that Dark Iron City is not the Dwarven capitol.”
