Magometus

A lone wolf, ghostly in appearance stalked through the crowds, pushing its way past various people, almost all adventurers. Nobody gave the wolf much of a glance, though a few people were perplexed by its misty, see through exterior. The wolf padded past the gates of the huge city, gazing up at the enormous statue, one larger than anything he'd ever seen. To say it dwarfed those things would likely be a pun.
The wolf sniffed the ground in front of the huge monument and suddenly disappeared in a puff of smoke. Appearing there was a large Draenei. He adjusted his armor, getting used to being back in his normal form. One of the city guards walked to him, a red haired dwarf. "Greetin's Shaman. Glad ye could make it ta Ironforge! As ya know, if ye need an'thin', give one o'us guards a holler."
The Draenei smiled to him and nodded, wordlessly making his way into the cave city. What immediately struck him was the fact that it was a cave city. The walls lept up several stories into the air and ended in the roof of the mountainous cavern. He'd known that the dwarves were industrious, but to build a city inside a mountain? Brilliant!
Magometus had recently finished working at the Exodar, something he'd spent all his time doing since he'd emerged from his pod months ago. He'd been training with Farseer Nobundo and had recently communed with the spirit of water, Aqueous, in Bloodmyst Isle. Finding he could help no more with his limited knowledge of technology, he'd begun to feel the wanderlust, and bid his home city farewell. The Alliance held so much promise for learning and helping, Magometus decided he would see all he could of his new home.
Ironforge was so much larger than the Exodar, and was a testament to dwarven ingenuity. Wandering to the edge of one of the large gutters surrounding the Great Forge, he could tell they were actually sitting above a large amount of lava. Despite his lack of understanding of architechture, Magometus could not help but be awed by the sight.
Turning to the nearest guard, he asked, "Might I inquire as to the nearest inn?"
