[ He folds his arms, the fingers of one hand curling slowly as he thinks. The nails dig into his palm, enough to help him find restraint. Keep his tone neutral. ]
The Titans uplifted us, gave us our strength and purpose, but they were not... present. They left us to handle things, including the consequences of their actions. Years before, when Azeroth was young, the Titans fought a war with the Old Gods. Creatures of the Void, corruptors who only know destruction. They could never truly be killed, but they did their best. One particular Old God, N'Zoth, was trapped in a prison deep under ground. My flight were known as the Earth Warders, Protectors, and we have an affinity with the deep places of the earth. My predecessors could hear N'Zoth whispering. Promises, truths, lies. Visions of a dark future. Claims that only they could stop it. One by one, they all fell to madness and began to spread havoc. Naturally, this... caused a degree of infighting. The other flights went to war with mine, but... one decided to try something different. To experiment, see if we could be... purified of N'Zoth's influence.
