Q u o t e:

One of the Gurubashi legends talk about the Progenitor of the Darkspear Trolls. A fellow named Gri'lek the Wanderer. Who tore off his own left arm after Neptulon destroyed the Gurubashi Empire.

---

...Interesting. But don't we fight Gri'lek in ZG? Hmmmm... Very, very interesting comparison. I want to see where the quest leads us...

Appearantly, by the way, Trollkiller is back. And its an Axe... ...thought it was a sword...

The Hakkar the Houndmaster/Hakker the Soulflayer fiasco has proven names are not unique.

Ghostwalka is more entertaining than 99% of the crap that infests the general forum. Deal with it. Or go back to scrolling through yet another 10 page thread about nerfing warlocks.

There's a lot more story when you do the timed runs. We'll just see what develops as guilds start finishing those up.

Googled that real quick about Gri'lek, the one in ZG was Gri'lek of the Iron blood, not the wanderer.

And yeah, I thought I remembered Trollbane as a sword not an axe.

---

Q u o t e:
...Dese people just have no idea who I am, do they? Bah. Take it or leave it, but it be my reasoning. Of course Trolls can lose limbs. Especialy if the wound is cauterized in fire. Dey grow back otherwise.

As it is, we Darkspear will claim da greatest Troll City in da Eastern Kingdoms for our home. Zul'aman. And can ye imagine da faces o' those silly elves once they have us, Trolls they cannae kill, as dere new neighbors...

I love you ghostwaka and your lore posts, they are always so invigorating and make me love what lore is left in this game

Innnnnteresting. Now that makes me grin. I expect we've got a few more surprises in store for Zul'Aman

Riiight, it was the Iron Blood. So Gri'lek be someone different... hmm, very interesting possibilities. But well discovered!

Tank ya, and tank all of ya for yer continued appreciation and love. I'm sorry I've not posted a lot. Busy and sadly not as much time for adventure as I used to have. *sigh*

I still love dis place and I love givin' knowledge. I hope ye still enjoy.

Q u o t e:
As many of you may now be aware, Zul'jin... he grown very old. But den, we Trolls no live so long as humans. He be approaching da end o' his life.

Trolls now, Trolls regenerate. Forest, Jungle, Ice... whateva', ya know this. Cut off a Troll's hand and it grow right back in a day or less. Dey even pick it up and put it back on.

Zul'jin though, he be missin' an eye and an arm.

Me guess be simple: Fire.

Like certain OTHER Trolls who shall remain nameless... ...we Trolls o' Azeroth suffer from the dangers of Flame.

Burns no grow back so good, yannow? Likely neva'.

Me guess be this. Zul'jin's eye and arm were claimed some time during his imprisonment by the humans after da fall o' da Second Horde. When they were locked in da internment camps, perhaps some Elves or some Humans who hated Zul'jin for what he did put out his eye and take his arm.

Perhaps it happened some other way?

So, Zul'jin be an ancient Troll, as Trolls go, and his arm and eye be taken from him from his years in da Wars and his imprisonment.

He be free now, and he not willingly join the Horde. He told Thrall no. So there be no.

He may be a hero, but he threatens our lands.

He may be a legend, but so was Lothar, and The Doomhammer still brought him low.

We can pray to da Loa to give Zul'jin a place o' honor in da Spirit World. For surely, no Troll has eva' deserved it more.

And, when Zul'aman stands empty, we, the Darkspear, will assume our rightful place. Zul'gurub has fallen. Soon will Zul'aman.

Let we DARKSPEAR take the role dat Zul'jin and his forest trolls were unwilling to take.

Zul'aman awakes. A new HOMELAND for the Darkspear Trolls awaits.

We will claim it!

And let no one stand in our way.

VENGEANCE FOR ZUL'JIN!

Awesome post! I only play a troll because of Zul'jin. He was my favorite character out of all the Warcraft games, and it makes me sad that we have to kill him :(

I agree, mon. Though, it might not be the real Zul'jin. We've not found out the full truth yet. We'll be learning all too soon, I be expecting.

Ghostwalka is my hero.

I've gotten the sudden urge to go reroll a troll warrior...

---

Q u o t e:
this is probably the gayest thread I've ever seen

---

And you posted in it... Sounds like somebody's a little curious.

Respect to the Ghostwalka.

I was pretty curious as to why he was missing his arm as well, thinking at first to be a graphical error perhaps. I've yet to try the PTR so I don't know the quests associated with ZA. Perhaps Zul'jin has been corrupted and therefore no longer has the ability to heal as is natural to his race. Or maybe he is so crazy he continuously rips himself apart. Or maybe it is his age.

Whatever the cause, it would be an injustice to not explain anything. I know he has no affiliation to the new Horde under Thrall but I loved the vicious forest trolls from the old game.
