[ Translating. A translocation orb, perhaps? Though the places mentioned are not familiar to him.
Unfamiliar place names, and Wrathion himself has drawn no reaction from the man. His frown deepens, and he begins to pace a little.
Several options open up.
One, the man before him is a fiction conjured to slow him down and keep him in some vision away from the main forces.
Two, with the fabric of reality torn this man is from another future -- one where Wrathion is not known, and Azeroth has a different structure. Including place names Wrathion does not recognise.
Three, the man before him is not from Azeroth -- many further questions attach to this. Does that mean either that the Black Empire has reached its tendrils to other worlds, or does it mean that this is not the doing of the Black Empire at all but some other entity?
He lifts a hand to his chin, fussing with his beard as he thinks. ]
I was leading an expedition through Ny'alotha, to put an end to the nightmares once and for all.
[ If this man was an agent of N'Zoth in disguise, Wrathion thinks, they'd probably drop the illusion at that to remind him resistance is futile. While N'Zoth himself had patience, his followers often ended up less... subtle. ]
