WoWFlix Vault is a column featuring videos you may have missed from around the web related to World of Warcraft. If you find something you’d like to be featured, leave a comment or send a tweet to @Heartbourne. I don't know how I missed this last year, but it is fantastic. This video tells the story of a player investigating the town of Darrowshire in Eastern Plaguelands and redeeming Joseph Redpath. In case you are unfamiliar with the questline, players find the ghost of a little girl named Pamela Redpath. She asks players to restore her doll and find out what happened to her family. Pamela and all of the Redpath family, save for her sister Jessica, were killed at the Battle of Darrowshire during the Third War. The spirit of their father, Joseph Redpath, was corrupted after his death by Horgus. Players work with the yellow dragon Chromie to rewrite the history of Darrowshire to ensure that after Joseph Redpath was corrupted and joined the ranks of the Scourge, he met a swift end. By changing this outcome of the Battle of Darrowshire, the spirits of Darrowshire are finally laid to rest. Its so satisfying to see a video with well done original music. This is one of the few original WoW-related songs that isn't a parody or comical; its very sober and very moving. I bought the track on iTunes, and I suggest you check out Cranius' blog for more information about him, this video, and his other work.
