This aid turns out to be a transformation ritual which requires the Forsaken to drink demon blood, which infuses them with newfound power, both physical and occult, but at the cost of making them hungry for more blood...  human blood, elven blood, orc blood, etc..  In short, the Forsaken become Vampires.    Also, much to Sylvanus' dismay, the ritual made them slaves of the Lich King again, who uses them as a new weapon against the races of the Crusade.Episode III, which is only a sketchy concept right now, would involve a civil war within the Horde, between Thrall's folllowers and a vastly growing faction of rogue orcs, trolls of various races, ogres and the like, as well as the defecting Night Elves.  This growing faction would favor reinforcing the Horde's might through "alliances" with other races such as the Night Elves (who left the Alliance during the rise of the crusades).</blockquote>
