The Band of the Brave
1st Northrend Expedition.

The Band of the Brave was in Northrend from the 27th of January to the 13th of February. During their expedition they traversed frozen planes, uncovered ancient halls and fought mighty undead beasts. The expedition was a great success in the end, the loot from Vyrkul holds and forgotten halls of Ulduar proving more then enough to fund the braves for some time to come.

Feb 3rd - The Band of the Brave travels into the ancient titan hold of Ulduar.
