“‘Owever... Yer actions do have concequences and ye do not belong in th’ Alliance Army any longer. Ye are t’ be immediately stripped o’ yer rank and dishonourably discharged. Ye are also t’ serve out a sentence in th’ Stormwind Stockades.” Lebryn lowered his head at the ruling, knowing the career of the man next to him was over. He sighed heavily, not wanting the outcome but it was better than what was initially guessed; no death penalty came for former Master Sergeant Rhandyll “Randy” Masen. Turning to face the man, Lebryn placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder though no words were shared between the two. He gave his fellow Lordaeronian a squeeze before two MPs approached and placed the Druid in chains. As Randy was escorted out of Westbrook Garrison and taken to Stormwind Stockades to serve out his sentence, Lebryn couldn’t help but feel sadness in his chest. He respected the man, liked him even. Whomever was to take Randy’s place would have massive boots to fill.

Defensive preparations were made in earnest at Greymane's Wall just north of Gilneas City. We prepared three lines of defence which included trenches, bunkers, barricades, barbed wire, anti-personnel and anti-tank traps, along with the entirety of the 47th Infantry Regiment soldiers who could stand and fight. We also had several civilian militias and mercenary companies assist us with the defence.

The Horde attack began at ~18:20 and they assailed our front lines, which crumbled fast. I myself was in the first line of defence and pulled back to see if I couldn't get reinforcements before the second line of defence fell under the Horde's onslaught.

Finally, the third and last line of defence held strong for as long as they could but after taking heavy casualties I gave the order for a general retreat.

We fell back beyond Greymane's Wall and fought a retreating action to delay the Horde so we could evacuate the wounded as well as the rest of the soldiers and civilians. Portals were hastily opened up which allowed us to safely pass through and get back to Alliance-controlled lands, however leaving Gilneas entirely to the Horde.

The situation on the northern Eastern Kingdoms has now become untenable. I am requesting an additional four infantry Regiments as well as naval and air support be moved into the area; intelligence suggesting the Horde may try and advance further south to Ironforge if left unchecked.

Lord MAR Lebryn Edain, 47th IR CO

HORDE MILITARY LAUNCHES A DESPERATE BID TO SECURE KALIMDOR During the evening hours of September 7th, 626, Horde military units launched offensives in several areas across all of Kalimdor in a desperate bid to secure the continent and turn it into a fortress. The Horde Navy, while severely crippled after the campaigns in both Zandalar and Kul Tiras, offered support to areas such as the Barrens and Darkshore. As the Alliance military's focus has not included Kalimdor, despite a rogue faction of Night Elves and Gilneans under the leadership of Tyrande Whisperwind operating in Darkshore, most of the encampments and outposts were overrun with little to no resistance. Already, top Alliance military officials are planning operations within what is now being referred to as Fortress Kalimdor to further solidify the Alliance's influence in the region. With the Horde banner flying over several Alliance strongholds, not all hope is lost. Our brave men and women continue to fight on despite being outnumbered and in some cases surrounded. The Horde war machine may be gaining ground, but it is only a matter of time before they are ground to a halt and the will and might of the Alliance triumphs.
