The two shady-looking men glanced over at the stranger that spoke to them. They were both blonde and wearing black robes, which suggested they were mages of some kind. They took a moment to examine the guy that was speaking to them, and they exchanged a glance together. They both grinned, as if reaching each other's minds.
"It's your lucky day!" Said Suspicious Guy #1.
The second man put his hand around the shoulder of the man called Warren Zimmer, gripping his arm. "You're on the magical floating city of Dalaran! There is no better place in all of Camelot then right here, to learn the craft of magic!"
"I know, that's why I'm here," Warren told them, matter-of-factly. He was clearly not in the mood for conversation. He had a mission to complete, and didn't have time to sit here and have idle chit-chat with a couple of nobodies. "Where can I go to start learning?"
"Some people might tell you that it's Albus Dumbledore, the Warlock of Camelot!" The second suspicious man said, pointing towards the large castle in the middle of the floating city. "But no!" He said dramatically, turning Warren towards the entrance to the forest just off of Dalaran's gate. "The real master of magic...the greatest mage in the Omniverse, lives deep in the Dark Forest."
Warren squinted, unsure. "Dark Forest?"
Both of the blondes nodded their heads. "Yes!" The first man told him. "It's a risky trail, but at the end of it, you will find the mage, and you will learn everything."
They both patted Warren on the back and then high-fived each other as they walked away towards the gate to Dalaran. They left Warren Zimmer with a choice - to enter the gates himself and locate Albus Dumbledore, the leader of the Camelot Mages Guild...or to brave the Dark Forest on the floating island, and locate the mysterious, but supposedly powerful, mage that lived within.
The choice was his.
