The Disappearance of Gragarn'Gorkil

[Urahra 5781]

*A new flyer hangs from the noticeboard outside Sanhar. The text is nigh illegible, written by someone who obviously has a hard time forming letters, but you can just make out the text. Above the words, someone has scribbled a crude, but accurate sketch of Gragarn'Gorkil, Warlord Mogroka's son. The text reads: *

Bruddahs an' sistahs, tragedy has befallen de bubhosh uzg o' Krugmar. Gragarn'Gorkil, de son o' Wargoth Mogroka, has gone missin'. It been many muuns since 'e was last peeped. His family, 'specially 'is mate, worries fer 'is safety. If lats have any information regardin' Gragarn's whereabouts, please deliver it t' Urara'Gorkil. She will offer a reward fer any useful knowledge.

Gragarn was las' peeped wif Blawharag'Gorkil outside Sanhar. 'E left shortly aftah wif nub word. His mate got nub word 'bout 'is departure an' no lettahs have arrived since. Keep lats peepers peeled.

((OOCly, Gragarn has decided to take an extended break from the server that may or may not be permanent. As it stands, we are going to role-play that he is missing, possibly dead. This flyer is IC knowledge and may be used as knowledge in game. Thanks for your time.))

Lokria squints at the paper, trying to make sense of the scribbled symbols, a very difficult task considering the writing isn't very legible and... uh... Lokria can't read. Nonetheless, she notices the accompanying sketch and her face becomes significantly less confused. "Uh... uh... ey, dat pretty 'hosh sketzh uv Gragarn! Matz'dun'gruk 'ow da sketzh so 'hosh, iv 'e be mizzin'fur so lon'. Eh, wutevah."

As she walks away, she mutters something about how reading maybe, just maybe, be a somewhat useful skill to have.

((Related OOC: I didn't know Noah all that well, but I hope he returns! I think I remember going on a few raids with him, and those were lots of fun. :P ))

((I was just thinking that... I know Kooka doesn't, but that may because a human taught him to write and read? :L))

*Kooka examines the roughly sketched note and does his best to make sense of it*

Hmm... me not know dis... Gragarn, but me hope he return safe.

((we do transcribe the accent because for the most part we view it as the "Blah" not an accent. For all intents and purpose we consider our bastardized english words to be part of our language. Think of the Blah as a language with a lot of cognates))

Blah fur latzelv wen lat blah "Frayd fur hymz sayfty". Hym am me bruddur, nub sum skahun snaak. Hym prubablee fell azleep undur reel komfurtabul rok agh furgut tu wayk ub. Hym dyd dat ash tik, me had tu remynd hym dat hym wuz snuuzun.

Hrmph! If lat gruk where 'im am, Blaw, why lat nub go poke 'im wif a stik til 'e wayk ub? Urara waitin' fer 'im!

*deciphers the meaning

*thinks to himself he will find Gragarn...because he will miss him

*gets suited up with his best armor and sword and follows the desert scorpions into the desert to find the orc who threw him around so often causing so much joy in old Yahgy.

((now whats his address? :P i'll show up painted blue with a laptop. *grunts to laptop))

((I just checked my email and I got an invite to this weekend's beta test for SWTOR. There goes my entire weekend. Plus Skyrim is coming out Friday. SWTOR is also just a month away. DCUO also just went free to play. I have no idea if/when I'll return.))

[UltraRed 78]

((Er... beta test for what? :P ))

((Star Wars: The Old Republic. It's a new MMO by Bioware that's coming out in December. We're kind of excited about it.))

Elindor scratches his head and wonders if he can remember what Gragarn looks like.

((I may be taking a break as well. I'm still mulling it over, but RP just isn't as fun for me without Gragarn. So much of my RP was with Gragarn and without him, I feel like I'm just sitting in camp doing nothing. It's making me feel really depressed whenever I log on.

I started crying the other day when RPing with Mogroka about losing Gragarn. In real life, I mean. I guess I just feel really lonely without him. I mean, we don't get a lot of contact in real life due to our distance and somehow playing without him just reminds me of that. It hurts emotionally.

I guess you could call me a wimp. But I get really lonely and sad without an RP partner and Gragarn and I were constant companions. Right now, I feel like I have no one to RP with or talk to when I log on.))
