Conquest of the Horde

Ulfis' to-do list

- Don't sleep during these situations.
- Get a guard to give you back your contraband Heh, Reigen isn't so bad after all!
- What happened two nights ago never happened. Ever.
- Keep your broken wine bottle a secret. Why do I always talk?
- Whoever this 'faceless' is, I don't want to meet her. Thank the titans I slept. Steer clear.
- Kick that X fellow in the arse once you're out. Kick me in the gut, Peh.
- Experiment Don't experiment!
- Tauren women, oh ye Damn fetishes.
- Mahen'tosh is surprisingly wise. Be sure to ask him questions.
- Rumors are bound to be spreading about you. Ignore them, focus on getting out.
- Find something else to live for besides hunting and 'contraband.' Figured it out then, have I? Exotic women, maybe start another family, possibly find love once you get out. Wait what am I writing? Titans, I've turned soft.
- Thank Lendri for her help.
- Quit getting into fights.
- Get out, spread Dwarven culture in an attempt for better understanding.
- Bigotry will always be big, won't it?
- Sudeth doesn't want to eat my brains or raise my corpse. That's a start.
- Get some Thunderbrew as soon as you leave. Wine and whiskey is no substitute for good ale.

And that's the story of Valan! For just a pre-made character I had a lot of fun rping with her. Good luck with the rest of the event guys! And thank you loxxy for the ability to RP her!

“I promise nothing bad will happen to you.”

Words that were spoken only two days ago, when the Kaldorei had been injured with trying to disrupt the elemental’s rampage. She looked pathetic, laying on the bed and crying from what had happened. Reigen couldn’t blame her, she herself had been afraid. Reigen did her best to comfort the elf, hoping her promise would calm her. She had intended on keeping the promise, she liked the elf well enough after all.

She never would have imagined…

----------------------------------------------------

Rocks fell down faster than Reigen was able to react, but the Kaldorei did. She shoved her aside and out of danger, much to the confusion of the Death Knight. She was already dead, why risk herself for someone who is already dead? The smile caught her off-guard for sure. It being the last thing she saw before the rocks crushed Valan, before the horrible sound of bones snapping reached her ears.

NO!

Every fiber of Reigen’s being screamed at the sight, the small elf running forward to try to dig out the Kaldorei from the rubble. The roof started to crack again, a tell-tale sign of another collapse. She wanted to stay, she wanted to make things right…but she knew doing so would just make Valan’s sacrifice a waste. She left the cave, intending to come back to get the body at a later time, a safer time.

Leaving the cave…Reigen felt strangely sad at the death of Valan. She wanted vengeance; she wanted to get back at those who caused this to happen, to get back at every monster that approved of this type of thing. She was going to hunt them down and destroy those who had put the Kaldorei through this unneeded pain. Most of all at those who made her break her promise.

When the elemental brought out Valan’s repaired body, Reigen was quick to preserve it so no others would mess with it. She was going to set things right, she was going to make a new promise that she was never going to break so long as she was able to animate her body. Before the body was frozen, Reigen leaned down to whisper to it.

“I’ll fix this…I’ll make right my promise. So long as I move, no more pain will come to you.”

----------------------------------------------------

From the surface, no one would know she was there. She didn’t breathe, so it’s not like she needed to come up for air.

Reigen sat below the surface of the water, close enough to shore so the creatures inside wouldn’t get to her, but far enough out so her hair wouldn’t attract attention. She had been fishing, and picked up a good number of fish so the living would be able to eat another day. Valan had wanted no more deaths, so Reigen was going to be sure that would not happen if she could prevent it. Fulfilling a last wish, so to speak.

It had been a while since she had a true friend; perhaps this was why she was so bothered. It was, after all, a filthy Kaldorei, part of the Alliance, right?

So why did it hurt so much to fail her?
