Azeroth Plague (Day 2) - Surviving the Night

Sorry for having to dash away suddenly last night, people. When you hear your front door splintering, you kinda have to do something about it. My couch is looking a lil' less healthy today, but it held at least. And I did kinda have to sit on it to hold it in place, which was a bit frightening with all the noise outside, but I made it through the night. Sure, I didn't get any sleep, but I'm still here to try and DO something about the Azeroth Plague.

In fact, I discovered something important during my harrowing night - Plague Bearers don't like to sunlight much. As I was sitting there, contemplating my own mortality - tired beyond belief - something happened. The scrabbling stopped, the chanting started to fade away. Looking through the shattered remains of my front door, I could see the sun starting to rise. It appears that those infected with the Azeroth Plague don't like sunlight much - they seem to be most active during the night hours.

So I managed to arrange for my door to be repaired (and reinforced) today. It's all good - the guy who came 'round to do it doesn't even OWN a 'puter, so he's safe (for the moment) from being infected. I managed to get off to work and survive the day pretty well on not much sleep, which was good. Made it home before it got dark too, which meant I was able to barricade myelf inside for the evening.

It seems I'm just gonna have to go one day at a time. I can hear them shuffling around outside. The chanting has begun again. It started out softly - "WoW is Wow" - but it's gaining in volume as more of Them gather outside. I'm not sure why so many are there - maybe they know that I'm trying to stop them. I don't know. I just hope that door repairman did a good job.

I'm in for another long night...
