The tavern was bustling with other npcs and players enjoying the warm atmosphere. There was a silence for a few moments when he entered, mostly from the surprise of seeing him. There were nudges from the ones who spotting him first to get the attention of those who weren't paying attention. A few of the alliance players saluted him, but he just smiled and nodded, motioning for them to go about their business.
He did greeted a few who came up to him to welcome him back from his 'absence', which he returned with kind words and thanks. He was finally able to reach the ber where the female human was tending her tavern, washing up a couple of glasses.
"What brings you here, your Majesty?"
She smiled for a moment as she put the glasses away and folded her hands on the counter.
"Well, I was hoping to find some news of the Queen. I recently learned she had come here in the past few days to help with some problem you had started having recently."
The woman sighed and nodded.
"The Lady Proudmoore did come through a few days ago. She has been gone for about three days since I last saw her."
He frowned for a moment.
"What was the problem, if you don't mind me asking. Was she able to help?"
"Of course, your Majesty. It started about five or six days ago. These strange creatures started coming in from the Burning Steppes, attacking without warning. They looked a little like zombies, but not quite. Some of them wore tattered garments, some none at all. They looked as if all their skin had been melted away, and sometimes they would have a green glow to them. Some of them were tough to kill, but they would have the strangest loot on them. I have a nice little collection of the stuff if you want to buy it."
Josephine giggled softly for a moment, but she soon turned serious once more. She had a very good idea what the creatures had been.
"Have they been attacking still?"
"Yes, like clockwork. They usually come down around noon and just as the sun is setting. In fact, a fresh batch should be coming down in a little while. They've actually helped out business for me, changing things up for everyone. Oh, I do believe that Lady Proudmoore went north into Burning Steepes to find the source, so she might be there."
"Thank you for the information."
"Come back anytime."
He smiled for a moment before making his way back through the common room, stopping at the door. A grin came to his face before walking out towards the fishing dock, walking all the way to the end. He stood there for a few moments, looking through his clothing items. A click on the screen and he was wearing a tight little bathing suit. A deep breathe was taken before he dove into the nice cool water.
