scared the dwarves still lurks down here somewhere.
This area consists of more tricks and traps which test a players' ability to
solve puzzles. Eventually, hordes of spiders will attack Arthas' men, but he
holds them off. Then, in a large hall, tentacles pop out of the ground.
Clearly, this is what scared off the dwarves. But there is more, upon clearly
the hall and entering the main chamber... Anub'arak figures out what it is.
Anub'arak: It cannot be... A forgotten one. Look to your defenses, death
knight! Fight as you've never fought before!
The creature is a huge dome shaped enemy. It spits out globs at the undead
forces, but is eventually slain by Arthas and his troops. However, several
dozen other enemies rush in from a nearby door. Anub'arak spots the stairwell
to the next area.
Anub'arak: We cannot take them all! Hurry, death knight... up the stairwell!
Hurry!
Part Three: Ascent to the Upper Kingdom
Arthas: We're running out of time, Anub'arak. How far are we from the exit?
Anub'arak: Not far. We have entered the Upper Kingdom. The exit should lead
us to the base of the glacier itself. However, there are still hidden traps
and pitfalls to account for.
The cave starts to shake and the ceiling begins to collapse.
Arthas: Take cover!
Anub'arak: Arthas!
Arthas wakes up moments later, cut off from the remainder of his forces. He is
all alone and very weak.
Arthas: The entire passage collapsed! There's no time to dig through this.
I'll have to move quickly and find my own way out! Hopefully, Anub'arak and
the others survived.
Arthas moves through quite possibly the most annoying and difficult part of the
game. After tangoing his way across some movable floors, he winds up in a
large hall. A wall gets knocked down to his north, and out comes Anub'arak.
Arthas: Anub'arak! You made it!
Anub'arak: I see now why the Lich King chose you as his champion, death knight.
Few men could have survived this labyrinth alone.
It's not over yet, though. Arthas has mere minutes before the entire cavern
collapses to get out, and there are several monsters between him and the exit.
With Anub'arak's help, though, they are all defeated.
Anub'arak: Now, quickly... head through that door! The exit to the surface
lies just beyond!
Arthas: It'll be good to see the sun again.
Anub'arak: Remember, Illidan and the true battle still await us in the world
above. Hopefully, our trek through the dark earth bought us the precious time
we needed.
Interlude: Boiling Point
Several hours later, Arthas and Anub'arak arrive at the base of the glacier.
Arthas: We've made it, Anub'arak. Our forces are already assembled and
waiting.
Necromancer: Greetings, King Arthas. You've arrived just in time. Illidan's
naga and blood elf forces have take up positions at the base of the glacier
and...
Arthas has another vision.
Arthas: Aarrghh....
The Lich King: Arthas, my champion. You have come at last.
Arthas: Master?
The Lich King: There is a fracture in my prison, the Frozen Throne, and my
