Why Does Santa Wear Red? - Duration: 7:27.Why Does Santa Wear Red? He used to wear blue suits, and purple suits, and weird yellow
Stockings. And what does Coca-Cola Have to do with any of this?
To understand why Santa seems to only have one red suit in his closet like a proper fairy
tale, we're going to have start a long time ago in a faraway land.
So we'll start with our first question: when did the story of Saint Nick originate?
Well it seems like the original St. Nicholas traces back to a monk with the same name.
Estimated to be born around 280 AD in Patara, in modern day Turkey. He was known in his
time for his generosity and pious life. It's said he gave away his inheritance and spent
his life helping the poor and sick.
He was known to be a protector of children and sailors and his feast day is December
6th, the anniversary of his death, which became known as a day when it was fortuitous to make
large purchases or to get married. His popularity remained high throughout Europe and by the
Renaissance he was one of the most popular saints. He was especially popular in Holland.
But even though Saint Nicholas' feast day was celebrated around the holiday season,
that doesn't explain how this popular saint became linked to the Christmas holiday. So
that brings us to our next question:
How did St Nick become Santa Claus and become linked to Christmas?
In Dec 1773 and 1774, a newspaper reported that groups of Dutch families celebrated St.
Nicholas' feast day in New York. And Santa Claus came from the jolly guy's Dutch nickname
Sinter Klaas, (short for Sint Nicolaas).
And in 1809 Washington Irving (known for writing "Rip Van Winkle" and "The Legend of
Sleepy Hollow") referred to St. Nick as the patron saint of NY in his "The History
of New York." And Episcopal minister Clement Clarke Moore popularized the image of St.
Nick at Christmas time with his 1822 poem "An Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas."
which spawned the famous line "twas the night before Christmas."
And showing Santa as linked to the holiday became more popular as the practice of gift
giving on Christmas gained steam in the US in the 19th century, especially gifts for
young kids. By 1820 stores were advertising Christmas shopping to encourage people to
buy more gifts and products during the holiday season. Soon that spiralled into whole sections
for Christmas ads in newspapers, many of which featured Santa Claus.
From 1863-1866 artist Thomas Nast drew popular cartoons of a Christmas Santa in Harper's
Weekly. And in the 1890s the Salvation Army had hoards of Santas on the streets of New
York collecting donations.
But Santa had a variety of get ups over the years. He was shown sporting everything from
a three cornered blue hat, to yellow stockings, a broad brimmed hat, Flemish trunk hose, a
red waistcoat, or a red robe. And Santa was known for both his wardrobe and appearance
changes, with some images showing him as alternately tall, fat, slim, jolly, or stern.
So that leads us to our next question: when did Santa start wearing his (now considered
classic) red suit?
Well although many of us may think it's cemented in tradition, it actually is part
tradition and part advertising.
As I mentioned before, depictions of Santa and his attire have varied. And there are
images showing him wearing red robes. But Coca-Cola drove this image home. They began
running ads that featured a jolly Santa in a big red coat and white fur trim as early
as the 1920s.
In 1931 they commissioned illustrator Haddon Sundblom to make December ads that featured
a jolly, red suited, Santa Claus drinking Coke "to remind people that they could drink
Coke all year round (not just on summery afternoons)."
Sondblom drew his inspiration from the jolly toy giver in Clement Clarke Moore's "An
Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas." But even though the rumor is that Coke chose the
red color specifically to match it's logo, the company still states that they simply
stuck with a color that Santa was already seen in before.
So even though they didn't invent the image of Santa at Christmas or originate the idea
of his red suit, Coke's clever ad campaigns to make people drink soda during the winter,
did help cement the image of one Santa (the fat, white bearded, jolly variety), virtually
eliminating all of the alternative versions that came before him in American pop culture.
It seems like the power of advertising packs a serious wallop. But that leads us to our
final question: why did this style of advertising have the ability to alter a time honored tradition?
Like Santa, ads have been around for centuries. But one of the distinguishing markers of older
advertising is that ads generally advertised new inventions or types of products by giving
the public information on these new goods and how to buy them. For example, 17th century
ads featured coffee but they weren't aimed at having consumers buy a particular brand.
Instead they sought to introduce the idea of drinking coffee at all, a featured ads
that linked coffee to high society.
By the 19th century after the Civil War, US businesses were invested in economic recovery
and advertising in newspapers took on an important role. In the 1860s and 70s the first modern
advertising agencies in the US sprung up, N. W. Ayer in Philadelphia and J. Walter Thompson
in New York.
They started out by offering to take ads to newspapers on behalf of different businesses
before evolving into writing the ads themselves. Also at the tail end of the 19th century,
we started to see the emergence of brands, which were encouraged by the spread of pre-packaged
products. Rather than going to stores with their own containers, customers began buying
items that were already pre-wrapped and identified with a particular brand.
And by the time the 20th century rolled around ads focused on getting consumers not only
to buy new goods, but also to buy already existing products based on specific brands
were the norm. And Santa drinking a coca cola is a perfect example of how modern brand focused
advertising evolved.
So instead of listing all the features and benefits of drinking cola in general, 20th
century ads were geared towards using print, billboards, radio spots, & slogans to encourage
us to get products from one company over another and they started using powerful imagery, design,
and jingles to get us to remember which brand to buy from.
So how does it all add up?
Santa in a red suit existed before the Coca Cola ad campaigns. But there were many variations
on this tradition that didn't include soda or jolly fat Santas, because there were other
images of skinny Santas, stern Santas, even kind of scary Santas, and they wore all sorts
of apparel and different colored suits.
But the common factor here is that traditions are sometimes part ritual, part celebration,
and part cultural representations. And it seems that some of the most successful ad
campaigns of all time work best when they take an already existent behavior (red suits
for Santa) and make them seem like the only standard or tradition. Before you know it,
a pitch for soda became a synonymous part of our traditional celebrations.

choices? Drop them here along with a picture of your best holiday ugly sweater and we'll

Top Credit Card Mistakes | 8 Things to Avoid & What To Do Instead - Duration: 6:18.Hi there, it's Ernest from Trip Astute. In this video, we're reviewing our top
points and miles mistakes that people make, particularly those new to the hobby.
(light chiming music)
Collecting points and miles is a fun but complex hobby. There are so many rules
and they always seem to change as the issuers offer new points programs and
products. However, there are a couple mistakes that seem to be pretty common,
especially for those who are just starting out in the hobby.
In fact, I'm probably guilty of several of these mistakes. So today, we're gonna
cover our top eight mistakes and what you should do instead. Number 1: Not
knowing your credit score or history. One of the most important aspects of whether
you can get a specific credit card is your credit score and history. Sites like
Credit Karma and Credit Sesame can help you get your score and history for free,
as well as tell you how many cards you applied for in the past and when. Also,
Credit Karma can tell you the odds for getting an approval for a card based on
your credit factors. For example, the Chase Sapphire Reserve and the American
Express Platinum are both premium cards, so they tend to require a strong credit
score and history in order to get an approval. Knowing your odds before applying
can be super helpful when determining which cards to pursue. Number 2: Not
understanding your travel needs and goals. This is really important when
developing your strategy for points and miles. Many cards have specific bonus
categories, so it's important to understand whether they match up with
your general spending. Also, your travel preferences and goals can greatly
influence which card is best for you. For example, if you prefer staying at
Starwood Hotels, then you probably are best served with an American Express
card like the Amex SPG. If you prefer to stay at an Airbnb or boutique hotel, you
might be better off using a flat rate travel rewards card like the Barclaycard
Arrival Plus or the Capital One Venture card. Number 3: Avoiding
annual fee cards. I can't tell you how many people I know who have told me that
they wanted to get the Chase Sapphire Reserve, but opted for the Preferred
instead because they couldn't stomach the $450 annual fee. However, when I broke
down the cost and factored in the annual travel credit of $300 and the Global
Entry fee credit, it actually made sense to get the Reserve card. While you shouldn't
pay for a card that has an annual fee where you don't feel like you're getting
the full value, I always recommend evaluating the big picture to see if it
makes sense. For more information, check out our credit card annual fee video.
Number 4: Not understanding the issuers' rules. I hear a lot of stories of folks
who apply for a credit card then try to apply for another card the next week, only
to get denied for too many credit inquiries. There are some basic rules on
what you should and shouldn't do, and we've covered them in our "Tips and
Tricks When Applying for a Credit Card" video. Keep in mind too that each issuer
has specific rules, so you want to be careful and strategic when planning your
applications. Number 5: Not challenging an issuer's decision. Even those of us
that have been doing this for years get rejected for new cards. In fact, I would
argue that the longer that you've been involved in this hobby, the more likely
you are to have too much available credit, so issuers may be hesitant
to give you a new card. If you do get rejected, don't hesitate to call the
reconsideration line and ask whether there are any options. We've covered some
of these tactics in the "Tips and Tricks" video mentioned earlier. Number 6: Not
calculating the value per point when we're deeming rewards. How and if you
redeem points is often dependent on the value that you get. Sometimes I'll opt to
pay rather than redeem if I don't feel like I'm getting a decent cents per
point value. For some basic guidelines, check out The Points Guy's monthly
valuation of points and miles currencies. He does a great job of explaining how
much he thinks each point is worth, which should give you an idea of how much you
should expect to get when booking a trip. I usually will divide the dollar value
by the equivalent number of points needed in order to get the cost per
point value. This can help inform whether I want to transfer the points to a
travel partner or book through a travel portal. Number 7: Being too aggressive
with your spending. If you get a new credit card, you want to be careful not
to spend too much too soon. Remember that the issuers get
nervous when they see risky spending patterns, especially if you don't have a
long credit history or you haven't used a lot of credit in the past. One of the
easiest ways to get flagged for high risk is to max out a new credit card.
Also, the flip side is to make sure you're not spending too much that you can't
even pay off your bill. The points hobby is only lucrative if you don't carry a
balance and you're able to pay off your bills. Any interest that you'll have to
pay will definitely negate the points earned. Number 8: Not developing a
relationship with the issuer. I hear about a lot of folks who cancel their
credit cards as soon as they meet their minimum spend and earn their opening
bonus. This is a really bad idea, especially since you're basically
showing the issuer that you were just trying to churn the card in order to get
the bonus. A more long-term and strategic way of thinking is that you want to
build a relationship with these issuers so you're able to get new cards and
products from them in the future. For example, I have a ton of Chase credit
cards, and I decided to move my personal and business checking in order to help
further that relationship. When I recently applied for the Ink Business
Preferred card, it was a lot easier to get an approval since I had a history of
doing business with the bank. And those are our top mistakes that beginners make
when entering the point and miles hobby. Do you have any extra tips or suggestions,
especially for those of you who've been doing this for awhile? if so, please share
them below in the comment section. Also, let us know if you have any questions. If

-------------------------------------------
MAKING A SONG USING SOUNDS FROM FORTNITE - Duration: 6:10.What's going on everybody it's your boy kept they're back with another video for you guys and this time
We are doing a song using sounds from fortnight the last time I did one of these videos
I used the sounds from Call of Duty World War two and it is now the most viewed and most liked video on my channel
by a lot so thank you guys so much for doing that in the description of the video I asked for 500 likes and if
We got that I would do a scorestreaks only song
but I really wanted to try to do a
Fortnight only song now this one right here is a little bit different than the other one this one
I had the base idea of what I wanted to do and I sang it and my cousin sang it with me as well and
Then I sent it to my brother Ryan who is overseas right now
and
He does a lot of like producing stuff with beats and everything and I told him just kind of fancy it up do some stuff
With it and make it sound really really cool because the version I had sounded really simplistic
there wasn't a lot going on and I just wanted something spicy to be in there and man did he spice it up oh my
goodness
I'm telling you right now this man has a special gift with making beats like I've tried to make beats in the past and it's
So tedious and I don't have the ear for it okay, and he just he does okay?
He obviously does so before I get into the rest of the video talking about the sounds and everything
Go down to the description below find his channel and go subscribe to him because he makes other beats
He makes a lot of rock beats and stuff, and he's coming home in a couple days
And we are gonna be making a lot of songs
And they're going on his channel some of them are gonna go on my but most of them are gonna go on his channel
so if you guys want to see that please subscribe to him and check him out I'd love to get him to like 100 or
200 subscribers he has a brand new channel, so please go check my brother out
And thank you guys so much for doing that in advance
But without further ado, let's go ahead and get on over to my video editing software
And I'll show you the specific gun sounds that we used in this song
Okay, so these are the four basic sounds that we ended up using throughout this song
He used two of them, and then I used two of them, but this is the scar hitting a wall
Which will give you a small echo effect.
and I believe he used this to make the clapping sound effect that you hear in the beginning of the song and like all the
Way throughout the song as well, but here it is
Alright nice and simple right there
That's the original sound and then the next tile we used was the grenade launcher
And is this is definitely like the stomping sound effect that you'll hear and here it is right here, okay?
I believe those were the two sounds that he ended up using and then I threw these other two sounds in after he sent me
His beat to kind of give it some more gun sounds and I started off with the submachine gun so here it is
Okay, it's the silenced submachine gun mind you and then I use the pump shotgun which you can kind of hear kind of sort of
Can't hear throughout the song, but if you pay attention you can hear it every again, and you obviously see in the video
But this is the sound of it
God is so loud okay, so those were the four main ones that we ended up using now
I'm gonna move over to the music editing studio, and show you what they sound like after production now
This is where things start to get a little bit crazy
And you might not even believe that some of these are the original gun sounds
but they are there's just been a lot of production a lot of after stuff gone into it and
Condensing to make the thing sound a lot better
But this first sound that you're gonna hear right here is the scar hitting the wall
And it's the little clapping sound effect that you'll hear and there are some strings and stuff behind this
But don't really pay attention to that just pay attention to the clapping sound
See, it's it's so quick and subtle, but that's it
That's that's it right there, okay, and then the next sound effect that you have her here
I believe this is the grenade launcher so you can hear the bass thing and this is the stomping sound effect
And it's the same deal we did a lot of convincing her he did a lot of convincing
I don't know all the steps that he took play. This is what he sent me back. So this is the grenade launcher
Okay, right there, and these are the two that I have it's just a simple submachine gun and then the shiny and yeah
Just kind of made it go through some headphones and stuff and nothing crazy on my end
But he definitely did a lot of work on this okay?
So I'm telling you please go subscribe to him and then just like last time
This is a little snippet of the song way down to the salty breathe
Okay, so there's your snippet of the song and it's kind of funny because the original idea me and my cousin had behind this was
We wanted to do like an ode to an old slave song that we really liked and we ended up doing that
but it was just sounding so basic and then my brother just kind of made a spin into a
hip-hop rap thing
and
We just made it completely new song out of this but massive shout out to my brother who basically did the entire beat you can
Tell he did a lot of work to this okay
So massive shadow to him
Subscribe to him down below and then also massive shout out to my cousin who helped me sing this he hit all the lower notes
That I couldn't hit in the backup vocals and stuff that you'll hear and they both killed it
They both did absolutely amazing and I couldn't have done this as well without them
So thank you guys so much if you're watching this. I really do appreciate it, but without further ado
I know you guys are tired of hearing me talk
Let's go ahead and get right on into the song using fortnite's sounds
Went down to the Salty Springs, where the Battle Bus dropped me.
Where I want to get that golden chest or something legendary.
And I said pull that trigger go. Pull that trigger go.
I gotta be the last to survive inside that safe zone and beat the storm.
And I said pull that trigger go. Pull that trigger go.
I gotta be the last to survive inside that safe zone and beat the storm.

Everybody knows when I'm on the road, hit the floor,

I hope that I don't lose focus, got 10 kills and I don't wanna choke this.
Gotta get inside the zone 'cause it's closin', 'splodin' every opposing hoe in the open

I gotta be the last to survive inside that safe zone and beat the storm.
And I said pull that trigger go. Pull that trigger go.

President Trump's 2017 GDP is Poised to Beat Obama's Best GDP Ev - Duration: 4:41.President Trump�s 2017 GDP is Poised to Beat Obama�s Best GDP Ever in 8 Years! The
Billionaire Trumps the Community Organizer Every Time!
It�s common knowledge that Barack Obama was the worst economic president since at
least 1949 and probably ever. Barack Obama was the only President to have
not had even one year of 3% GDP growth.
Here is the complete list of average annual real GDP growth by postwar president (in descending
order):
Johnson (1964-68), 5.3% Kennedy (1961-63), 4.3%
Clinton (1993-2000), 3.9% Reagan (1981-88), 3.5%
Carter (1977-80), 3.3% Eisenhower (1953-60), 3.0%
(Post-WWII average: 2.9%) Nixon (1969-74), 2.8%
Ford (1975-76), 2.6% G. H. W. Bush (1989-92), 2.3%
G. W. Bush (2001-08), 2.1% Truman (1946-52), 1.7%
Obama (2009-15), 1.5%
Barack Obama�s best year of GDP growth was 2.9 in 2015 (a year when the stock market
went down) according to the US Bureau of Economic Analysis under the US Department of Commerce.
2009 � (-2.8) 2010 � 2.5
2011 � 1.6 2012 � 2.2
2013 � 1.7 2014 � 2.6
2015 � 2.9 2016 � 1.5
President Trump has seen quarterly GDP rates of 1.2, 3.1 and 3.3.
The New York Federal Reserve revised its estimated fourth quarter GDP of 2017 up from 3.93 to
4.00 percent. This is estimated to give President Trump
an annual GDP rate of 2.9 or better for 2017. During his campaign, President Elect Donald
Trump stated that he wanted to move GDP growth above 3.5 percent to 4 percent �
With the stock market at all time highs and setting new all time highs every fourth day,
with consumer confidence at record levels, with unemployment lower than at any time in
the last 17 years, it is becoming more than obvious that President Trump�s GDP will
soon be in record territory as well.
President Obama said that jobs were never coming back and by February of 2016 it was
clear that Obama had given up on economic growth. Obama�s Congressional Budget Office
(CBO) forecasted in early 2016 that America will never see 3.0 percent economic growth
again. But Obama was a community organizer and President Trump is a billionaire.
President Trump�s GDP in his first year in office is poised to beat Barack Obama�s
best year ever. The billionaire trumps the community organizer every time.

Elif Episode 627 - Ending Scene (English subtitles) - Duration: 6:06.Vildan, this does not convince me.
What is this place?
Mr. Tarık,
Don't worry, we'll find Elif here!
She should be around here somewhere.
I've just seen her once,
but didn't you hear the guy from the store?
He's seen Elif, too.
He talked about her for hours.
She couldn't have come far from here.
But where the hell did she go?
I...
If I was a girl at that age,
first I'd look for a safe place.
A home to stay at.
Right.
That's why I brought you here.
This place, for instance.
A building that's been left, abandoned.
That should be better than sleeping on the street, shouldn't it?
There is no place else for her to hide.
Shall we take a look?
Well, don't you think...
this seems a creepy place for a kid, huh?
Yes, it is.
But we should take a look anyway.
Although it doesn't make sense...
let's just make sure we've searched everywhere.
Let's have a look.
Have a look.
Mr. Tarık!
There are leftovers of chocolates and biscuits!
She might have stayed here!
Don't be ridiculous, look.
There are broken liquor bottles, too.
Mr. Tarık!
Look!
I've found this, Elif was here!
Look, her notebook! Has her name on it!
She drew some pictures.
She's written that she's missing her mother, look!
I told you that we were on the right track!
Obviously she's stayed here.
Maybe she's still staying here.
Even if she doesn't stay here, she'll come back for her notebook.
I'm sure of that!
Some... something else!
Is there anything else left from her?
Look around.
There's not. Even this is enough.
I'll tell my guys...
so they'll wait here.
Your guys?
Y- you,
Weren't you going to wait?
You started talking nonsense again.
It's not clear if she's going to come here again.
Should I stay here, do the watch, huh?
You're right.
Whatever...
That's alright.
We're done here.
Now we can leave.
You wait right there Tarık.
You just wait for now.
First, we take care of this Elif matter.
And then the great surprise gets on its way.
I've kept this for years.
This is it.
This is the big one for me.
It will be time to reveal my secret...
to your beloved wife and mother-in-law.
When they find out,
That'll teach you a lesson.

Anduin Wrynn: Thank you for joining us, champion.
These are dire times indeed.
Anduin Wrynn: We all know the Alliance incurred heavy losses in the war against the Legion.
And even now, the world bleeds in the aftermath of Sargeras's final strike.
Anduin Wrynn: Meanwhile, the Horde musters its forces and arms for war.
Their aggression must not go unanswered.
Anduin Wrynn: Our future depends on bringing other like-minded allies into the fold.
I call upon those of you gathered here for your suggestions.
Turalyon: Victory on Argus was only possible because the heroes of Azeroth fought side-by-side
with the Army of the Light.
Turalyon: Many of our bravest soldiers gave their lives for the cause.
Those who remain would be proud to join the Alliance.
Turalyon: Among our number are brave initiates about to undertake the arduous path of becoming
Lightforged.
Anduin Wrynn: Thank you, High Exarch.
Lightforged soldiers would indeed bring strength to our numbers.
Anduin Wrynn: I am eager for the Lightforged to join the Alliance.
Turalyon, bring our champion with you to the Vindicaar so that you may address your troops
together.
Turalyon: It will be done, High King.Alleria Windrunner: These
woods once brought such joy to me and my sisters.
To see them like this... fills my heart with sorrow.
Alleria Windrunner: This sanctum was once a testament to my people's mastery of the
arcane.
Now it is but a ruin.
Alleria Windrunner: The Ghostlands.
This was once Eversong Forest... a place of unbridled beauty.
Windrunner Spire, my family home, stands not far from here.
Alleria Windrunner: This place looks like it has been ransacked.
But perhaps Umbric left behind a clue.
Alleria Windrunner: Umbric is a dedicated scholar... but his tenacity turned him and
his followers into exiles.
Alleria Windrunner: "Remember the Sunwell"?
Please.
I am so over it.
Alleria Windrunner: Umbric risks much.
He follows in the footsteps of treachery.
Let us hope this obsession has not led to his downfall.Alleria Windrunner: Dark forces
surge through these ashen stones.
No wonder the ethereals were drawn here.
Alleria Windrunner: That vortex up ahead pulses with power.
Let us investigate, $p. Alleria Windrunner: There!
Durzaan is using those forges to draw in power.
We must break his hold on Umbric's people.Magister Umbric: Our void experiments are proceeding
well.
I am certain we are on the cusp of a breakthrough... despite Rommath's smallminded protests.
Magister Umbric: The grand magister must understand that this power is crucial to the defense
of Silvermoon.
Never again shall the sin'dorei fall prey to our enemies!
Magister Umbric: Unfortunately, it seems our research has reached an impasse.
I believe there is knowledge at the Andilien Estate that will springboard us forward.Magister
Umbric: It seems we are not the first of our people seeking to harness the void.
I have found notebooks belonging to one whose very name is a curse...
Dar'Khan Drathir.
Magister Umbric: It was Drathir's betrayal that allowed Arthas to corrupt the Sunwell...
and left our kingdom in ruins.
For the first time, I see why Rommath opposes our course of study.
Magister Umbric: Nevertheless, I believe this knowledge can be used for good.
The bulk of Drathir's research was conducted at Dawnstar Spire.
That is where we must go.
Alleria (to the player): Come.
We must make our way to Dawnstar Spire.Magister Umbric: Drathir's quest for power led him
to seek the fragments of an ancient world, one teetering on the brink of the Void itself.
Magister Umbric: His notes said it existed within a rift in the very fabric of reality.
He never found this place... but I have succeeded where he failed.
The way will soon be open to us!
Magister Umbric: Drathir believed this rift held an ancient object of unspeakable might.
Perhaps this will be the key that allows us to gain control over the shadows.
Alleria (to the player): Based on these notes, I believe I can reopen the passage to this
world he spoke of.
Let me see…Alleria Windrunner: There, up ahead.
That must be Umbric.
Alleria Windrunner: Magister Umbric!
I am Alleria Windrunner.
Magister Umbric: Alleria Windrunner!?
How did...
My, what an unexpected honor!
Magister Umbric: My people and I heard tales of what transpired on Argus.
As you might imagine, we have a keen interest in your interaction with the darkened naaru.
Alleria Windrunner: Another time, perhaps.
This champion and I have been searching for you.
We know of your exile from Silvermoon and felt we shared common ground.
Magister Umbric: Indeed!
Like you, we believe the void can be used to defend life rather than consume it.
We have made great progress, Lady Windrunner, but many mysteries remain.
Magister Umbric: Take this cube, for instance.
It is an ancient device, perhaps even predating life on Azeroth.
It seems to have been locked, and we cannot yet open it.
Alleria Windrunner: Careful, Umbric.
Answers to such mysteries often come at a price.
Let me have a look.Nether-Prince Durzaan: At last... the future I foresaw has come to
pass.
Thank you for opening the way.
Alleria: Show yourself!
Who are you?
Alleria Windrunner: Resist the whispers, Umbric!
This "gift" you are offered is little more than enslavement.
Magister Umbric: Rrrrurgaaghh!
I feel the power... calling to me... changing me…
Alleria Windrunner: Come, $p.
We must stop this transformation before my people are lost!
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Names are of little consequence.
A more interesting question is...
What shall you become?
Nether-Prince Durzaan: We are on the same side, Windrunner... no matter what that traitor
has taught you.
Alleria Windrunner: Your masters will not enslave me, ethereal... nor will they claim
my brothers and sisters!
Alleria Windrunner: This void storm is a conduit... a doorway that must be closed.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Why do you resist?
You stand on the threshold of a grand destiny.
Alleria Windrunner: I see through your lies, Durzaan.
So will the others.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Nooooooooooo…
Alleria Windrunner: No.
These people are not yours.
They are not lost.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: I offer freedom.
I offer strength.
Cast off your mortal shackles.
Alleria Windrunner: Our destiny is our own, Durzaan!
You will not define our future!
Nether-Prince Durzaan: The transformation... incomplete... must... be... finished...
Alleria Windrunner: The only thing that will be finished here... is you.Nether-Prince Durzaan:
My people were reshaped by the void.
Stripped of the limitations of flesh.
We offer you the same gift.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Even shattered as it is, this place echoes with the whispers of
the great ones who were slain... and the hatred of he who broke this world.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: A pity you remain defiant.
The patience of the masters is vast... but not infinite.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: A minor setback.
What is in motion cannot be undone.
Surely you see this.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: The void will transform you...
awaken what you were meant to be.
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Do you not see what we offer?
The majesty of chaos... the glory of infinite hunger!
Nether-Prince Durzaan: Why do you fight your destiny, Windrunner?
Join me and rule by my side!
Nether-Prince Durzaan: So be it.
Your death is regrettable... but necessary.Magister Umbric: Alleria... $p...
My people are free, but we have been... changed.
And the voices…
Alleria Windrunner: Durzaan tried to tear away your mortality.
To make you like him--a slave to his hunger.
Alleria Windrunner: But your fate is still your own, Umbric.
I can teach you to quiet the whispers.
To make the shadows serve you, instead of you serving them.
Magister Umbric: My arrogance was nearly our undoing.
I dabbled with powers far beyond my control.
If you will train us, Alleria, we will follow where you lead.
Alleria Windrunner: I sense the powers at your command.
They are... considerable.
You would make valuable allies of the Alliance.
Magister Umbric: Silvermoon turned its back on us long ago.
Today we are reborn... and it is fitting that we walk a new path.
From this day forth, the Alliance has our loyalty.
Alleria Windrunner: And in turn, I pledge to aid you on your journey.
$p and I will inform High King Wrynn of this news.
Then I will return, so that we can begin your training.
Magister Umbric: It will take some time for us to adjust to our new forms.
We look forward to your return, Lady Windrunner.
And $p... you have our deepest thanks.
Magister Umbric: Together, we will prove them wrong.Alleria Windrunner: High King Wrynn,
$p and I found the sin'dorei exiles.
Like me, they have been changed by the void--but their hearts and minds remain their own.
Alleria Windrunner: I will be their guide.
I will train them to control the whispers of shadow.
In return, they will fight for the Alliance against all its foes.
Anduin Wrynn: It may take time for these void elves to earn the trust of some in our ranks.
But so long as they adhere to your teachings, they are welcome in the Alliance.
Anduin Wrynn: You have done us a great service this day, Lady Windrunner, $p.
You have my thanks.
Alleria Windrunner: It is an honor to serve once more, High King.
For the Alliance!
Anduin Wrynn: For the Alliance!Some will tell you that the Light is the only path.
The one weapon that can stop the enemies of Azeroth.
But we see alternatives.
Many roads--many possibilities--that are open to us.
There will be those who doubt you.
Who question your resolve, your ability to harness powers that have caused the downfall
of weaker wills.
Use the lessons I have taught you to maintain control.
Become a weapon for the Alliance... even as you skirt the edge of darkness.Throughout
your journeys across Azeroth, you have achieved mastery over the forces that constantly seek
to control you.
You have become a formidable weapon of the Alliance, $p.
Return to the void rift so that we may honor your accomplishment.
Many doubted that the ren'dorei could harness the power of the void without falling prey
to its influence.
You have proven them wrong.
Let this armor remind you of all you have achieved, $p.
Accept it with my thanks.
