"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Jaina exclaimed in wonder.
The others also marveled with amazement, as the Twisting Nether was a novelty to everyone present.
After the brief burst of awe, they immediately felt the hostility and threat this world posed to life.
Stray energies, most notably shadow energy, common in the Twisting Nether, suffused the sky with odd colors. This energy was rampant throughout the void, eroding the hull of The Lightbringer within moments.
Those standing on the deck also felt a strong discomfort, and some had even started to lose blood.
The Gryphon Riders and Storm Dragon Knights flying around The Lightbringer began to lose blood as well.
"Be careful," Kael'thas warned, "this is shadow energy floating in the Twisting Nether. It will corrupt the flesh and soul of mortals, gradually transforming material life into void creatures."
As he spoke, he draped himself with a magic shield to fend off the shadow energy's assault.
