This is a list of Kitrik the Assassin's in-game activities after the Lost Isles.

In the Pay of the Dark Lady

Kitrik is hired by Sylvanas to aid her efforts in Lordaeron

After serving in Azshara to solidify the Bilgewater's hold on the land, Kitrik wandered Kalimdor for several weeks before he journeyed by zeppelin across the sea to Lordaeron. Though some among his Grand Army were Forsaken disgusted by Sylvanas' unscrupulous conduct in recent days, Kitrik was intrigued by the no-qualms approach to conquest she held, and met with the Dark Lady in her throne room in the Undercity, in his capacity as an independent mercenary.

Sylvanas explained that she intended to stake claim to all of Lordaeron, as many of her Forsaken were former servants of that nation. Tirisfal, Silverpine and Hillsbrad were largely under Forsaken dominance, with weakening resistance movements in the latter two regions. The Western Plaguelands, particularly Andorhal, were an area of great value - whoever controlled Andorhal would eventually hold the whole region, even though the Argent Crusade had swooped in to take control of Hearthglen to the north. Sylvanas explained that the fight for Andorhal was on two fronts - against the remnants of Arthas' Scourge, and the Alliance forces commanded by Thassarian. Promising a substantial reward for his service, Sylvanas wanted Kitrik to travel to Andorhal and aid her commander in the field, the sin'dorei death knight Koltira Deathweaver, in his campaign to claim Andorhal. Kitrik cautiously agreed, though he suspected there was more to this than the Dark Lady was letting on.

Though he admired the Dark Lady as a leader and agreed with her desire to ensure the survival of the Forsaken, Kitrik was less than enthusiastic about the means she used to do so. Though he was not opposed to necromancy on the basic level - he had many death knights and Forsaken defectors in his own army - the Assassin was sickened at the indiscriminate slaughter of innocent farmers in Lordaeron, who had only come to settle in the revitalized land. Plus, throughout the battle in Andorhal, he had the feeling that the reason Sylvanas had wanted him to work with Koltira was to spy on him; the blood elf still appeared to maintain his links of unholy brotherhood with the human death knight Thassarian, as they had both served together fighting for, then against, the Lich King. Sure enough, Sylvanas herself confirmed this when she appeared in person on the battlefield. Directing her val'kyr and her soldiers to carry out her commands, the Banshee Queen and her Forsaken managed to win the day in Andorhal. Displeased with what she perceived as weakness on Koltira's part, Sylvanas had the death knight taken into the bowels of the Undercity, where she and her loyal followers would "reform" him.

Thoroughly disgusted by the Banshee Queen's methods, Kitrik departed Lordaeron for Kalimdor, hoping never to return...
