User:Sambah/A World in Danger

Storyline
The Citizens of Azeroth have come under attack by mutants of the maelstorm. The Torustis, or Toirtus in Naga tounge, meaning "ones from the void", are a new face on the world of Azeroth. They were first created as diabolical turtles by the Dark Titan, Sageras. Once he let these turtles loose, they lost track of their way around the universe and ended up rocketed towards Azeroth. They land right in the middle of the maelstorm. The violent winds of the maelstorm caused something to interact with their E.T Blood. This caused them to mutate. The Mutation that took place caused the Burning Legion to abandon their new race. The Torustis's leader, King Roful, has taken interest in his peoples' new powers. He soon created an alliance with the Naga, and for the first time ever, the Naga are siding with the Murlocs. Luckily, not all was lost. This strange occurance caused a group of Naga called the Swiftwind Vipers to change their mind about their races' ways. They turned to the Night Elves for help. Tyrande took a small step at first. She told Fandral that she wanted to Naga to please them with their home and battle skills, but most of all, Druidry and Holy Magic.

The Horde, unaware that the alliance were gaining more war recruits, were preparing to take Thrall, Cairne, Lor'themar, 	 Sylvanas, and Vol`jin to Northrend for a expedition to meet with the leaders of Dalaran. Although the mages could of just teleported, they said it was urgent.The Horde, however, never made it to Northrend. They were shipwrecked and most of the soliders died. The leaders, almost never together like this, have come together to help each other, but sadly, most of them passed out. Thrall was the only one who didn't. He called out in every language he knew for help, and finally, someone came. It wasn't just anything though. It was a group of Makrura. They rescued the five leaders. Before Thrall could say anything, one of them spoke. (Translated) "Hello, We are the Makrura, you must be Thrall, the Warchief of the Orcs. We've been looking for you. We want to join you, the Alliance murdered our king." After a long conversation, the StoneShell Makrura, as they named themselves, joined the horde, however, many horde races did not like it. Causing all horde races to be unfriendly with the Makrura.
