If this is something cannon in regards to our storyline then I'm starting an official discuss/decode the letter thread now!
The Mortals have been freed of their Souls.
?
The Followers have been removed from their Hidden Path.
Eto's order was known as the Followers of the Hidden Path, and recently Eto has been murdered. Perhaps other members of the secret order are in danger as well? The order was started by the nelves I believe, and this message was found attached to a night elf head.
The General knows her Defender.
Lyssira is the general, and clearly she's found her Defender. According to the prophecy her right hand man. This could be Consadine, as The Lost Portent seems to hint that their fates are intertwined.
The Protector has become the Destroyer.
Possible reference to the Cathedral, the Church of the Light isn't quite as churchy as they seem. Could also be evidence of a betrayal in the foreseeable future.
The Dark Star is revealed by the Covenant of Light.
Obvious reference to Darkstar, perhaps he is a villain after all and the Covenant will break away from his grasp and bring him down.
This is the Potential Lost.
The last portent is also known as the Lost Portent, which sounds like what they're talking about, but it says Potential so...
General Lyssira Smithford, you have been marked by the Exiled of Drak'thul. We will not rest until you cease to dream. We will not sleep until you never awaken. By the blood of Drak'thul, we so swear. You are marked by the Black Tabard. The war begins. We are coming.
The prophecy said it would be mortals who would threaten the General, and not the "Enemy" (the Legion most probably)
I believe this may be a reference to Brenry since he was a guard/soldier in Gnomeregan, but ended up killing some people and now kills a lot. _________________ "I kill two dwarfs in da morning, I kill two dwarfs at night, I kill two dwarfs in the afternoon, and then I feel alright. I kill two dwarfs in time of peace and two in time of war, I kill two dwarfs before I kill two dwarfs, and then I kill two more."
I think this is very interesting! A very engaging development indeed. I will ponder a way (if there is one) for Onaron to become involved. We will see.
I have to say, when I first read the thread I had a slight feeling of unreality pass over me. I was really blown away by this development.
I do not understand many of the assertions made but I would be pretty sure that Lyssira's defender is Consadine. And Brenry could well be right about the protector turned destroyer, that fits.
As I read it, Illiana and the rest of the Hidden Path followers may already be dead. If they are not then they are indeed in grave danger and probably in hiding.
And speaking of grave danger... I wonder if Lyssira and Consadine are ready to take on an army? Or does another part of the prophesy apply here, that an army will gather around The General?
I'd need to look at a message Lyss received ingame, but there was something about a broken sword as well, and I may be mistaken, but I thought the protector would be known by it. I'll need to check on that one. _________________ "The fun of FIRPing is using your skills to enhance the RP experience of others." - Aquataine
If I am to be the Destroyer, which side am I on? _________________ "I kill two dwarfs in da morning, I kill two dwarfs at night, I kill two dwarfs in the afternoon, and then I feel alright.

Please have Onaron get involved!!! He is awesome to RP with. _________________ "I kill two dwarfs in da morning, I kill two dwarfs at night, I kill two dwarfs in the afternoon, and then I feel alright.

I'm glad for your support, Brenry - I'm enjoying our adventures very much I though that perhaps my slow pace would become frustrating.
In any case, if there becomes a way to insert my character into this plot line, I will try to do so, but I wouldn't want to force anything. We'll see how it flows and I'll be following it with a keen interest.
It does get a little tiresome walking all over the place, but I still enjoy RPing with you. _________________ "I kill two dwarfs in da morning, I kill two dwarfs at night, I kill two dwarfs in the afternoon, and then I feel alright.

I've looked at the messages I have received ingame again. It seems Lyssira will know her Defender by two signs, neither of which she has seen. Perhaps this means that Consadine is not the Defender of the prophesy, or it means that we just need to let the plot play out a bit further.
I'm not sure when I will find time for this exactly, but I plan to have a post in the Lost Portent RP thread where Lyssira re-reads all of the messages she has received. For those who wish to help in unraveling this mystery those messages may hold a key or two that I have missed up 'til now.
