It's been quite a while since I left for Northrend, it seemed. Everyone was so different when I came back...
The priest, Annabelle, decided to pursue the path of the Paladins. Voran seemed to be awfully close to a young mage girl called Reigen, and appearently the House of Autumn was re-made.
A lot has happened today that led me to write a journal, should I be unable to keep up with all the events by memory alone.
I had recieved a letter from my brother, Athaniel, that had appearently lived through the attack on Quel'Talas as a Death knight. I traveled to Northrend and searched for him with hopes of finding my brother, and instead I met only his shell. His body was the same, but what was left of him had no feelings. Just a fake personality and the same ideals as the one I held dear.
But I didn't give up. No, I couldn't. I searched for ways, devised plans, all came to failure. My last one is the reason for my return -- If I acquired just a bit of the Sunwell's waters...
I'd need to find a way to get by the heavy guard unseen, any other way would be far too dangerous...
Once I returned, I met up with Alissa, Eve and Voran. After a bit of talking I ended up meeting the mage, Reigen, that lacked one eye and one arm after being attacked. I agreed to help her, as it'd give me a chance to test new enchantments.
I placed several of them on an arm made of glass, so it'd be malleable and slightly less brittle.. It was impossible to make the girl get her sense of touch and of course since no Engineering was involved the arm needs her own Mana constantly infused on it to work otherwise it'll stop functioning and instead become a lump of glass attached to her elbow. She'll get used to it in time, I'm sure, maybe even become able to cast her spells again in time.
The eye was significantly easier, as the only difference it needed from a normal glass eye was my kin's characteristic green glow.
After both were done and successfully implanted into Reigen's body, she rested. I myself roamed the place that we chose to complete the "ritual", the Azshara Crater for a day or two, before meeting with an Orc, a Draenei, a Human and a Tauren at a nearby fire. What happened then wasn't important, but what happened afterwards. Annabelle arrived with a mage as her company. He immediately seemed to dislike me, but I chose to ignore it. I was glad to see Annabelle again after such a long time being gone.
We talked for a while before all moving to the Arena to watch two humans battle. That's when things went downhill.
Anna asked me if it'd fight her again, for practice. I decided to go along with it, but added that we'd only use melee, as she wanted to be a paladin and I, a battle magi.
I'll have to admit, either I honed my skills well in Northrend or hers are quite sloppy. I cornered her with ease, to the point I gave her a few free hits and yet could have been victorious. Before the defining attack, I sheathed my blade and said it was her victory. We're friends, after all. The problem came after.
The mage, Redis, jumped from the balcony and tried to attack me. First he summoned a pillar of fire, that I was got by surprise and unable to successfully dodge. Afterwards he tried to hit me with a fireball, but I simply stopped it with my hand and mocked him, claiming that his skills were useless if not used on surprise. Annabelle was clearly shaken, and said she "Knew what happened." She ran towards the stands, while I moved towards Redis. At that time, a Kal'dorei and two orcs had already appeared to stop him from doing anything else.
It took all of me not to end the human's life at the spot. The insolence... But I couldn't. Not now. So I turned my back at him and walked away... Disgusting.
Voran healed me, and I met the orc Ghash. A shaman, who was willing to join the House of Autumn and looking forward to help us, with his own objective in his mind.
Then I met the red mage, Eroci. She was an interesting girl despite her habit of vanishing and reappearing all the time. She agreed to help Reigen by gathering special herbs that'll control her Fel addiction, but only for a few moments.
After talking for a while, I left, and passing through some sort of dungeon consisted of a large staircase going downwards, I heard sounds. Following them, I found Redis had done something stupid again... And this time Annabelle was in danger.
I waited until everything was solved; It ended with Berenice and Redis' banishment from the Azshara Crater. I must admit... I'm glad that happened.
Me and Anna decided to head to the Ratchet to cool off over the recent events over a mug of... anything we could find. We drank a bit, while sharing each other's stories. Now we headed to bed, and while she's asleep I choose to write this small journal.
Worst case scenario, in one hundred years or so I'll be able to read this and laugh at myself for being foolish enough to befriend humans...
