Argents to Begin New Offensive?

Martin Northwall writes from Icecrown...

Argent CrusadeThroughout the campaign for Northrend the Argent Crusade have earned themselves a reputation for their many battles against the Scourge. Recently the Crusaders have managed to capture ground in Icecrown including a small outpost before the Court of Bones itself. In northern Icecrown the Argent Tournament has been a controversial but popular draw, bringing in hundreds of the Alliance and Horde’s best adventurers and mercenaries daily. But it seems this has not satisfied their leader Highlord Tirion Fordring.

Sources within the Crusade have recently been hinting that the Argents will be pressing forward their advantage in a new assault against the Scourge. Several key outposts have begun gathering their forces and planning battle tactics. Furthermore their Vaults have been thrown open and powerful artefacts and magical weapons have been given to trusted agents.

News that the Coliseum at the Tournament is nearly completed lend weight to this claim. Highlord Fordring himself has claimed that the Coliseum will act as a test for adventurers, giving themselves a chance to hone their skills. Argents close to the Highlord have been on record saying this is to prepare for a siege upon Icecrown Citadel itself.

How does this affect you? The sources have consistently told us that recruitment for the Argent Crusade will soon undergo an increase. They are looking for anyone dedicated to the fight against the undead menace and willing to see it destroyed once and for all. For added incentive many of the items from the Vault are up for grabs for proven agents. If you’re interested in doing your part then keep an eye out for news soon. If your already a member of the Crusade there was also rumours circulating among our sources that a Conclave would be called at Light’s Hope as a show of unity as well as to flush out lingering Scourge strongholds in the Plaguelands.
