Loeki

"Now boarding for Stormwind City on track two," came a voice over the intercom.
Loeki was in the Deeprun Tram station at Ironforge. As much as it pained him to leave the lush Dwarven lands for the wretched Human terriotory, he knew he would return. Determined to come back stronger than he left, Loeki boarde the tram. Loeki was hellbent on making it to Westfall to battle the Defias Brotherhood. His endeavour was not one of principle or moral righteousness, rather one of opprotunity. The Defias had a set of Blackened Armor that was deemed superb when in the hands of rogues. The way Loeki saw it, if he was going to be a leader he has to do so by example. The best example is to be well equipped and unafraid to venture forth into foreign lands.
"You have now reached Stormwind city. This train will leave for Ironforge in tow minutes," said the same dull voice as before while Loeki headed out of the station.
Loeki emerged into the Dwarven District of the City. It had the same sounds as Ironforge, but the architecture and smell was vastly different. He made his way to the Canales and for the first time saw the true face of the the Human capital. The stone of the parapets slisened in the sunlight. The water seemed crystal clear by the docks. Side by side the Dwarf ad Human cities were as opposite as night and day.
How doe these Humans live in such and open city, " Loeki asked himself.
Two Stormwind Guards walkded by Loeki and one made the mistake of bumping into him on purpose.
"Sorry little guy, i didn't see you down there," said the Guard as his commrade supressed a laugh.
"Tha's ok boyo, I dunna expect ya to be able to see much. Especially with that lack of air up there makin' ya dumb as a trogg and all," replied Loeki with a pleasent look on his face.
"You sure got a big mouth for a small man," retorted the Guard.
"Tha's 'cause I'm a Dwarf ya great git," answered Loeki snidely now with a sneer on his face.
All humor had left the situation for the Guard.
"Very well, Dwarf. Perhaps a visit to the Stockade will fix that attitude," he said as he and his fello guardsman moved forward to apprehend Loeki.
Skillfully Loeki dove under the first Guard tripping him as he slipped through. When he hit the cobblestone Loeki dropped his heel snapping the Guard's neck. The second Guard immediately sounded the alarm. He felf this rogue was a bit too much for him to handle on his own. Loeki torned to face his advisary and advanced towards him. The remaining Guard decided to jump into the Canal rather than face the Dwarf. Loeki could hear the clanking of guard boots approaching, he decided to take his leave while he still had breath to take it with.
As he ran across the bridge to the Trade District an arrow flew by his head. He looked back to see a squad of Guards, including the one who jumped in the water, chasing him. He bit his tumb at them as he dodged the Guard near the Gryphon Master. Loeki jumped on a gryphon and dropped the silver as he took flight. The Guards gathered watching him shrink in the distance.
"Maybe next time ya dress wearin' ninnie," Loeki called back to them.
He looked to the West and brought the gryphon to bear, heading for Sentinel Hill, Westfall and the objects he ventured for.
