Should you, by chance or happenstance, find yourself using Dalaran as a springboard towards the new territory of Northrend you will have noticed that there is a new crop of Rusted Proto Drakes proudly displayed by their Horde riders. (First Horde rusted Proto-Drakes! Shun)

One Saturday not long ago an epic battle, which started early in the afternoon and ended late in the evening, was fought and won. Three achievements separated our valiant group from the promised drake, two of those were some of the hardest fights to be found inside Ulduar: Knock, knock, knock and Firefighter, the third required only a blood sacrifice of a number of Dark Iron Dwarves. (Ably seconded at times by yours truly. Shun)

After some whining on Freya's part, we let her have another friend on the 30th August. This one proved to be more stubborn, and after a tussle with plants and trees, she once again gave up her cache of goodies.

We welcome to Apocalypse its latest social applicant: Calhadan (rogue) who looks to become a valued member. (He had better or he will feel the whip. Shun)

He certainly seems the chatty kind as most of the officers's logs pre his invitation to the guild will confirm. He already has some friends in the guild, this should help him integrate faster and enable him to get lots of sign-ups for all those 10mans he promised he would run.

There are few things more nerve wracking than the agonising wait for the last 2 or 3 drops which never seem to happen. For the last few weeks every boss kill was preceded by a collective intake of breath and a fervent prayer for a fragment drop.

Those must have been effective as Xilaran is now the proud owner of Val'anyr, Hammer of Ancient Kings! (one of the 3 Val'anyr on the server. Shun)

PS: On the night Apocalypse also killed Vezzax without a death.

On a hard fought Sunday evening (back on the 9th August), Apocalypse chose to try to kill Steelbreaker last. Even though he offered the largest target, our DPS was forced to focus on smaller fish first, and after many attempts, tank explosions and the obligatory 1% wipe, the big guy fell before we did.
