The snow had begun a while back, and now the ground was covered with a thick coating, the isolation and general creepiness of Northrend giving this a wholly different feel from zones like Winterspring. An enemy camp full of strange miniaturized soldiers sat at the foot, so I made for the summit as fast as I could--but not fast enough. Knocked off my mount, I was accosted by a band of monsters, who were previously ringing a spectral necromancer in its defense. The zealots were chanting, "My life for Ymiron!" over and over as I ran toward, rather than away, from their icy cave. I wanted to get a closer look at this Ymiron--but a giant zombie creature called a Spectral Wight soon ended my view of the ritual.
