It is easy to understand why so many of my contemporaries prefer to let this history die. Let it sink into oblivion silently, slipping beneath the waters of time until the surface of the lake is once again unruffled, and no one knows of the shame lurking in the depths. I, too, feel that shame, though I was not alive when this occurred. I see it in Drek’Thar’s face as he recounts his part of the tale in a shaking voice. I saw the weight of it on Orgrim Doomhammer. Grom Hellscream, friend and traitor and friend again, was ravaged by it.
But to pretend it did not exist is to forget how dreadful the impact was. To make ourselves into victims, rather than claiming our participation in our own destruction. We chose to this path, we orcs. We chose it right up until it was too late to turn back. And having made that choice once, we can, with the knowledge that we have of the end of that dark and shameful road, choose not to take it.
So I wish to hear the testimony of those who placed one foot in front of the other on a road that spelled near obliteration of our kind. I want to understand why they took each step, what had to happen for it to seem logical and good and right.
I want to know this so when I see it unfolding again, I will recognize it.
Humans have two sayings that are wise beyond imagining. The first is,
‘Those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it.’
And the second is…
‘Know your enemy.’” – Warchief Thrall, Rise of the Horde.

So it begins. So I thought to myself. The greatest and most difficult task bestowed upon me and in extension upon my clan and those who would seek to aid us. I feel both greatly honored, but also troubled. The greater the honor, the greater the fall should I fail my task. Not long will it be now until my clan is ready for the perils of Draenor.

I took a dry stick from the ground, snapped it over with my hands and threw it into the fire right in front of me. Narsh, my wolf – my trusted friend and companion, growled silently as the wood caught fire. “So the wood return to the earth through fire and with water and wind it shall grant new life yet again. The circle of the elements if you will. Ever-“

“-thing is connected, yes.” I broke the elderly orc, on the other side of the campfire, off. He looked fragile, nearly as if should a wind blow just a little bit too strong he would fall apart. I knew, however that it was far from the case. He smiled even though I had interrupted him.

“I’ve taught you everything I could, young chieftain. Without you being a shaman naturally.” He paused, now looking upon me with his imposing eyes.”You are ready and so will your clan be. The spirits are restless. They urge you to travel. Heed their call.”

“We shall leave at the sixteenth day in the eighth moon of the year, Far Seer Hroshgar.” I nodded simply in his direction. My previous uncertainty began to gain in me again. I tried and failed not to face the far seer. No matter, he would know anyway.

“You doubt yourself?” He raised an eyebrow at me. I snorted, taking control of my own feelings as he had taught me so many years ago.

“I am the weapon of my Warchief’s command. His desire is mine. To doubt myself would be to doubt him. No. I will do this task and so will the rest of my clan. We will do it or die trying. Victory or death that is the most fundamental of truths.”

“Better.”

So I thought to myself. So it begins.

Throm-ka!

The Bloodpaw Clan invites all members of the Horde to come enjoy a few hours of orcish clan-life. The new chieftain under the guidance of their elder shaman has brought a renaissance to the Clan itself, preparing it for a new purpose. It is a long and dangerous task to meddle with the past and especially that of the orcs. Some might not wish it uncovered – Rather they would have the orcs entirely forget their shamanistic roots and return to a fel driven blood fury. So the chieftain and the clan shaman prepares for war…
Date:
14 June 2009
Time:
20:00
Location:
Razor Hill
Event details:

At the Clan hours you can expect the following:

• The mighty drums of the Horde playing in the background.
• Plenty of meat and drinks.
• The Bloodfights! Who is the strongest? Who deserves the respect of the mighty Bloodpaw Clan?
• Tales of the past – Of war and conflict! Death and glory!
• Offering to the ancestors and the spirits.

We will start off with a mighty feast in preparation of the sparring. The mighty drums of the Horde will get the blood running and the juices of the meat tender your muscle for battle. The feast will continue through the night until the end of the event.

When the evening comes of time the Bloodfights will begin. Any member of the Horde can participate in these dangerous and brutal games of war. Only one will be left standing victorious. And that person will receive the mighty title of Champion of the Bloodfights for a week from the chieftain of the Clan. Do not enter these if you cannot win a martial fight – For you may put your life at risk.

As the Bloodfights has ended the night is coming to an end and the elder shaman of the Bloodpaw Clan will provide an offering to our ancestors and the forceful spirits. To thank them for this mighty feast and gathering – and for them to continue to guide the Bloodpaw Clan and the Horde safely through this time and journey to come.

So when and where will it happen? I will tell you:

Place: Razor Hill.
