Calia Return then to Aerie Peek and then travel to Kul’tiras.
1) Kul’Tiras: Calia arrive to Kul’tiras, expecting help from the admiral Proudmoore however she found a First officer and explains that Proudmoore feels really bad because he lost his son in a naval battle a few years ago chasing orcs (Gul’dan and Stormreaver clan) and now her little daughther left the security of the Island few days ago in order to travel to the forget land of the light of Kalimdor. Jaina told him she will follow some orcs who stolen ships days ago (Gromm and Thrall). With her traveled a lot of people who ran away from Lordaeron talking about the “dead incarnated took their land” and a few sailors of Kul’tiras too, tired of bein “traped” in the island. Admiral Proudmoore left few days ago to the sea to chase pirates and haven’t return, so he expect “still alive and return to recover the goverment".
a. Main quest: Set sail!: Calia must buy her own army in order to track Proudmoore on the great Sea. Calia start this map with a few resources: 200 g and 50 w. You can buy a small ship for travel and no fire with this resources and advance in the next main quest looking for Proudmoore, however, if you do this, the other ships in will be HARD to fight. The other ships able to buy are Fragate 300 g and 100 w and Galleon 500 g and 200 w. You can buy any number of ships.
b. Side quest: Map of the Treasure: Tirion talks with a bloodsail pirate in the island of Kul’tiras who offer to sell a treassure map for 100 G. If you follow the map instructions arround the area will arrive to the “great X” where you can reach 5000 g and 3000 w from it (enough to pass the map), however a guardians skeletons will emerge in order to defende the treasure for burgals, no match for Tirion and Calia but really funny.
c. Side quest: Wanted! “Scurvy dog”: Tiryon and Calia must chase and defeat this Pirate who own the “most powerful” stolen Galleon from Kul’tiras. If you defeat the ship with your army then you get 3000 g and 2000 w as reward from the “first officer”.
d. Side quest: Tiki soul: Calia and Tirion found a small island habitated for Shaman Troll who after explain he is not enemy, expose he’s looking for a tiki soul of a loa stolen by a Sea Giant. The tiki soul is an artifact to protect his tribu from the storms fury. Calia and Tirion can defeat a Sea Giant in order to recover the tiki soul of the loa. If you bring this to the old man he will provide you with a few books of strenge +2 (for Tirion) and wisdom +2 (Calia), therefore will improve your ships with the “Storm Shield”, allowing cross deep water without damage (otherwise the ships take 20 damage per second if they are in this zones).
e. Main quest: Finding the Admiral: Calia and Tirion travel across deep sea and arrive to a naufrage. In this island Proudmoore is awaiting.
f. Main quest: Naval Riot: After rescue him, the First Admiral Army will be expecting you and will fight your army under the excuse you're a pirate. If you touch land with Proudmoore then the battle is over. Proudmoore slain the first officer. Proudmoore too explaing the man set a trap with pirates aboard his ship, and after a battle their naufragated against the rocks of the island where you rescued him. He survived a week there since Jaina left. For rescue his life and recover the Kul'tiras, he’ll help Calia anyway on the sea or the ground with his men to recover Lordaeron. Proudmoore gives the item
"Tides Fury" what allow you cast a wave in a corner like he does in Rexxars Campaing each 30 seg. The item is an artifact, gives you some stats and can be droped.
Calia and Tirion can return now to Aerie Peek and fullfill the quest of Iron Forge or continue in the story if they had finished that quest.
1) Main quest in Iron Forge: It won’t explode!: Once you reach Aerie Peek fullfiling both missions a emissary from Ironforge will arrive, explaing that the
Deeprun Tram is ready to used. Is the fasted way to travel to the rebuilded Stormwind city. Calia will remind Varian and Lothar arriving to Capital City as refugees of the first war and expect to recive the favor in return or even help to recover her land. So she travel once again to Iron Forge and take the Deeprun Tram to Stormwind.
End of Node 2.
Node 3.
Once she arrived to Stormwind City, is drived into palace. Wrynn recive her, who expose the situation. Varian horrorized and very upset about what happend to the kingdom who hosted, decide help Calia. When Calia expose his brother, first regent is “dead” too, Wrynn start to think about her more like a Queen. Wrynn suggest Calia remaind in Stormwind planing the way to recover Lordaeron with the new Alliance she has wrought.
Interlude:
A year pass since Calia arrived and start training herself in the deeps of Holly Light Church of Stormwind. She’s now a more powerfull priest (Shadow or Holly, all abilitys +1 and gets “Revive”).
She meets Wrynn call to palace, where he expose “the time has arrived”: the IV:7 spy informed that there’s a new “Banshee Queen” in Lordaeron who usurped the throne, Dalaran has been destroyed and the Kirin Tor disbanded. Therefore Garithos is dead, Tirion left a few months ago to take his place in the first line and now command the survivors of lordaeron with the Argent Crusade, but there’s too another faction, the Scarlet Crusade, who wants recover the power by themself. Therefore the elves from Quel’thalas had send a emisary to expose they left the Alliance, being neutrals now to the conflict.
Calia evaluate her forces: Small armies of Kul'tiras, the huge part and the admiral himself left in a expedition to found her missing daughter and havn't return. Small air force from Aerie Peek, not enough to disband a sky full of gargoyles. The shocktroopers from Ironforge, maybe a strong card to play, otherwise not enough. Stromgarde forces: few fierce warriors, and mechs from Gnomes, usefull or trash... "almost not explode like goblins stuffs" she tought. Stromwind’s Knights, who havn't see a true battle in years and the Argent Crusade commanded by Tirion under her orders.
She had forces, but not to fight the root of the evil: magic. If she expect win the war she needs find survival mages of Kirin Tor, and her best card is travel to Kalimdor to find Jaina who left with a huge forces or a “magic” solution for this mess.
