Location: Deathknell, Tirisfal Glades

 

The next evening, somewhere in the Tirisfal Glades, the banshee Sylvanas arives at the secret meeting.

Balnazaar: Lady Sylvanas. We are pleased that you came.

Sylvanas: How could I not?  For some reason I no longer hear the Lich King’s voice in my head.  My will is my own once again.  You dreadlords seem to know why.

Varimathras: We’ve discovered that the Lich King is losing his power!  As it wanes, so too does his ability to command undead such as you.

Sylvanas Windrunner: And what of King Arthas?  What about his powers?

Balnazaar: Though his runeblade, Frostmourne, carries powerful enchantments, Arthas’ own powers will fade in time.  It is inevitable.

Sylvanas Windrunner: You seek to overthrow him, and you want my help to do it.

Detheroc: The Legion may be defeated, but we are the Nathrezim!  We’ll not let some upstart human get the best of us!  Arthas must fall!

Balnazaar: The lich, Kel’Thuzad, is far too loyal to betray his master.  But you, on the other hand …

Sylvanas Windrunner: Hate him.  I have my own reasons for seeking vengeance.  Arthas murdered my people and turned me into this … monstruosity.  I may take part in your bloody coup, but I will do so in my own way.

Balnazaar: I, for one, do not trust her.  Her heart is still elven.  She will never side with us.

Varimathras: Don’t be too hasty.  She has great spirit, but her hatred for Arthas will ultimately serve our cause.

Detheroc: Agreed.  Well, if that’s settled—let the festivities commence.
