Character
: Mr. January
Location
: Gilneas
The rain pattered loudly against January's umbrella as he strode up the boarding ramp to the airship. Stylistically, it was patterned after the first Alliance airship,
the Skybreaker
, although it lacked the large cannons and bomb bay of its sister. Instead, is sported several portholes for the passengers to gaze at the vista without leaving the comfort of their rooms, and a large viewing bay was placed in the bottom of the ship for its patrons to enjoy.
One would think that the ship,
the Day's Reprieve
, practically oozed luxury, and so it did, being made for the elite of Azeroth. And as it was, January was wary as he boarded the ship, wearing a nondescript suit and overcoat, with a bowler hat pulled low over his eyes. He'd rather that nobody took notice of him.
However, the beginning of his journey was rather uneventful, with nobody taking notice of him as he entered his cabin and shut the door. He sat down at the desk, spreading a few papers on it, and began writing as the airship left its moorings and entered the sky.

: Walter Joyce
Location
: Hinterlands
The man that emerged from one of the darker alleys in the quiet dwarven town that sprawled over the former Revantusk city was quite different from the humble, bullied scientist Joyce appeared as in front of Fitzpatrick. He wore a dark gray suit that looked expensive and fresh, and contrary to his lab-coat, fit him well, a snow-white shirt and a black tie under it and a stylish long coat over it. Beneath his soft fedora hat his hair was parted neatly, and even his glasses seemed to sit a lot firmer on his nose.
Walter strode towards the highway connecting the suburbs to Aerie Peak. Again he held his left arm folded at the elbow and behind his back, whilst in his right he carried a leather suitcase. Before long, a taxi stopped near the self-styled doctor and he climbed inside.

Kiran laughed at that as the group reached the Hold, and landed the gryphons in the clearing designed for the mounts. Koran got down off his mount and held out a hand to Vrell to help her down as Kiran hopped off his mount and pulled off one of the saddle bags. "So, what were you two doing out in the wilds of Silithus?" He asked them.

"I don't see one," Zach said, looking around. "Is there anything on the door?"

After several hours, closer to a day than not, the airship began to slow down. "Attention passengers, this is your captain speaking." January looked up from his papers in annoyance, spotting the loudspeaker the voice had issued from. "We thank you for traveling with us today. We will be mooring at the Stratholme Airport in the next hour. Once again, we thank you for choosing Eastern Airways."

"I'd appreciate it. I hope to hear from you," Leo called, starting away. He was followed by Sindry, who did not even bother looking back, and Edmund who gave the two scientists a dismissive look before departing as well.

Taking any transportation other than aerial to depart the Peak seemed just plain wrong. It only left the matter of choosing between a gryphon and a more contemporary aircraft.
That said, for a man like Walter Joyce that was no choice at all. He could not get along with the friendliest of dogs, and had suspicions, however unjustified, that even Worgen seemed to behave erratically around him.
He found a suitable vessel in a matter of minutes - not surprising, considering that he was about to make a journey from the biggest airport this side of Thandol Span to one of the largest cities on the continent, coming behind only places such as Silvermoon or Stormwind.
Walter was pleasantly surprised by the fact that he sat in the first row of the economy class - meaning that nobody sat in front of him and there was plenty of space for him to stretch his legs. And to top it off, no one was sitting next to him as well. Feeling positively optimistic about this endeavor, doctor Joyce pulled a blank sheet of paper out of his suitcase and began making the first drafts of his contract with the man he was about to meet in Stratholme.

"Hm?" Turin raised an eyebrow, not quite getting what Selin meant. Then again, as his father liked to say, to know the difference between what a woman says, what she thinks, what she means and what she thinks she means is the knowledge unreachable for mortals.

: Stratholme
January exited the airship behind most of the other passengers, stepping off onto the docks of Stratholme. He signaled a nearby courier to take his suitcase, and proceeded to track down a taxi. An uneventful drive later, he stepped out in front of a modest hotel. It certainly wasn't shabby, but it wasn't the grandest hotel in Stratholme either. Instead, it served to upper-middle class citizens, and it did its job well.
Several minutes later, January was safely ensconced in his room, scratching away at a growing sheet of documents.

Walter looked at his watch as he exited the plane, breathing deeply the decisively urban air of Stratholme. Though he had time still to book a number in a hotel before he were to meet his contact, he did not have any other business in the city, and the day was young. Perhaps he could get this over with and be back in his laboratory before dusk.
Humming some merry tune under his crooked nose, doctor Joyce headed to the restaurant he and his partner-to-be were to meet each other.

About an hour or so later, January exited the hotel, heading to the restaurant they were meeting at. A briefcase hung from one hand and he walked with the purposeful stride of many of the businessmen around the city. He entered the restaurant and took a table in the corner. Suspicious as it might be, he valued the privacy over the obviousness of his need for secrecy.
A waitress took his order, returning with a mug of hot cocoa, which he sipped absently as he waited for his contact.

"Umm," Zach said, inspecting the door under the beam of the flashlight. "These swirls probably mean nothing. I'd imagine that this pictogram might mean something, though," he said, indicating a small hieroglyph of a man holding a hand up.

Silithus
"Hard to believe the Destroyer has been dead for 20 years and his 'son' has been off trying to create peace...and we still have problems with the Blacks." Kiran said, handing the scrolls he took from Staghelm Tower to Koran to put with the scrolls they got from Southwind.
"Well what do you expect; you know his other son is still out there in Outland...and well..." Koran trailed off, looking away from Kiran who had shot him a dirty look.

"Well what do you expect; evil never dies, it just keeps changing colour." Kiran said and looked over at the inn. "Look, how about in thanks, my friend and I buy you both dinner and drinks? And we can discuss more about the problem the Blacks left behind." He suggested as Koran gave him a strange look.

"I'm sure," Zach said, rolling his eyes, but still keeping a wary watch through the door.

"Good." Kiran said, and started off towards the building.
Koran stepped up by his friend and asked in a low voice. "Alright, spill; why are we feeding them?"
"They are hunting Blacks, I want to know why they are in Silithus, since no one from the Temple has said anything about those things being active here." Kiran answered just as quietly.
