      Here's another cool thing coming with WoW's next expansion, as Solanya noticed a very interesting new toy!
      The Cave Spelunker's Torch, which drops in Hallowfall, may not seem like a big deal, since we already have torches in the game, but those are actual weapons, which means you have to equip them, which then also means you have to re-equip your actual weapon(s) whenever you want to fight. This toy simply replaces the visual of your off-hand until combat starts. The other cool thing is that it's actually held as a torch, and not as a mace or other weapon! 
      Other than just looking cool, it had plenty of role playing uses as well, and it even sheds more light than normal torches!

      If you didn't have the chance or time to read the latest short story about Alleria, we're breaking it down for you.
      You can read and download "A Whisper of Warning" by Delilah S. Dawson here.
      Short Story Highlights
      The short story explores the complexities of Alleria's relationships. Her interactions with Lor'themar, her conflicted emotion towards Turalyon (stemming from her affiliation with the Void), and her efforts to reconnect with Arator, who has grown into a a man.
      Alleria's Arrival in Silvermoon City
      The story starts with Alleria Windrunner arriving at Silvermoon City. She reminisces about her days as defender of the city. Once a revered hero, she now faces suspicion and outright hostility from the very people she protected...
      Internal Conflict and Whispers from the Void
      Alleria is haunted by the whispers of the Void, a dark force she's tapped into. These whispers try to corrupt her, urging her to betray those she meets and seize the power she's always been wary of.
      Mission Involving the Mysterious Dark Heart
      Archmage Khadgar tasks Alleria to investigate the Dark heart, a mysterious object fraught with dangerous potential that could threaten everything.
      A Tense Reunion with the Regent Lord
      Back in Silvermoon, Alleria meets Regent Lord Lor'themar Theron. Their reunion is tense, he confronts Alleria about her past actions, which he believes led to the corruption of the Sunwell.
      Estranged Relationship With Son
      The reason why Alleria went to Silvermoon was to warn her son, Arator, about the Dark Heart. She wants to protect him from the imminent danger and advise him to stay away from the brewing conflict.
      Familial and Cultural Allienation
      As she walks walks the streets of Silvermoon, the fear and mistrust from the residents is palpable. It is more than clear she's alienated not just from her homeland, but from her son and her partner, Turalyon, too.
      Plea to Arator
      She implores Arator to avoid the conflict related to the Dark Heart, mirroring her own determination to protect him from the perils she faces.
      Stressful Departure 
      The narrative closes on Alleria leaving Silvermoon under difficulty circumstances. Though she is set to continue on her quest regardint the Dark heart, she holds onto a sliver of hope for eventual reconciliation with her son Arator and her city.
      Alleria's Difficult Relationships
      Relationship with Arator
      Alleria's son Arator always had a distant but caring relationship with his mother. Despite their enstrangement, she is profoundly concerned for his safety.
      Relationship with Turalyon
      Alleria and Turalyon's relationship is complex and strained by her connection to the Void, which has caused both physical and emotional distance between them.
      Despite all strains, there is an enduring love between them, highlighted by their moments of deep emotional connection and mutual respect for each other's duties and battles.
      Their conversations in the story indicate unresolved tension and the challenge of accepting Alleria's evolving nature.
      Relationship with the Void
      The Void continuously torments Alleria with whispers that tempt her to embrace dark actions and doubt her relationships.
      Alleria battles against the Void's influence, striving to maintain control over her actions and resist the destructive urges it instills.
      The Void's presence is a significant part of Alleria's identity and the main cause of conflict with Turalyon and Arator.
