It is my unfortunate duty to report that Ironellypta met her end tonight at the age of 39. Although I am deeply sadden by her passing, I feel I must celebrate the fact that she is the longest lived of her sisters and died in a most heroic fashion.
Bravely, and probably foolishly, she ran into the burning Bael'dun Keep in an attempt to rescue as many of the dying dwarves from the flames as she could. Although she managed to pull six to safety, in her hurry to rescue a seventh survivor nearby she failed to notice that her own protection from the heat had worn off. Although she made a frantic attempt to access a nearby emergency fire valve, the searing pain of the flames made it impossible for her to turn it quickly enough.
She died a painful, but mercifully quick, death and her spirit can rest peacefully knowing that during her too short life she did all she could to aid and protect the citizens of Teldrassil, Darkshore, Ashenvale, Stonetalon Mountains and the Southern Barrens.

I read this earlier on the WoW forums and was saddened to hear of Ironellypta's passing. When I started my own warrior, Ironandee, I was using you as the benchmark for where I felt it'd be possible to get to. I admire that you were able to start again and push passed your older milestone. The thought of me having to do that annoys me somewhat as I already know I can pass those 32 levels, it's beyond that that is the real starting point and challenge for me. So it's admirable that you did that and achieved better. If you choose to go again I'll be cheering for you.

D:! Nooo!
As a fellow warrior, I will mourn your passing when I get to that point (because I'm nearly there myself) You were definitely one of the ones I aspired to be like.

It's very saddening to hear of Ironellypta's passing, but her memory will no doubt be honoured and live on within the dwarven community of those that she saved. Rest in peace brave warrior - may your spirit return and burn even more brightly than before

Thanks everyone I love that there are so many more people trying out warriors for this challenge now. I get that it's not the obvious class to choose, but I've honestly been having so much fun with it. I am determined to keep rolling warriors until I finish this! At my current rate I may need more signature space though..... lol Going to keep this character to finish the holiday quests and get that mount I'm so very close to. Figure I'll test out some quests in Dustwallow and Thousand Needles perhaps as well for future attempts.
