Alright folks, here's why in an extremely brief IC explanation:
Warrior's Ridge has crumbled into Warrior Lake and is largely unstable at this time to be travelling on. It's still settling into a new ridgeline that is more stable, but until it settles it's a risk that nobody, no matter how unintelligent, would take. There are castle sized boulders crashing down randomly, and with the freeze/thaw cycle you're looking at a no-go zone.
Let's take that explanation to the bank for now. You can talk about it IC as from TP xroads you'd be able to see the mountains still settling. I'm hoping to have this update wrapped up mid next week, but Dorg will have to incorporate new material, and there's a rather complicated new area I'm going to need him to test and confirm as the scripting is above my paygrade... so with hope we're looking at next week. And it's not just the Thunder Peaks that are new or changed. This is actually a hefty update incorporating a lot of changes and one new quest-style system that we'll be detailing soon.
I apologize for not having a full description up yet.. a lot happened on that quest and there's a lot up in the air for you all. But unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, I really got wrapped up in something new for the world and I've barely looked up from it to do anything else. Because it's *that* cool. Heh. Soon!
