((The past part of this was a post back on the old forums (and the old ERN). I put it here to give anyone who wants to know why Mael keeps talking to herself some history.None of the characters involved are around anymore, but that's okay. There's really not much to the story beyond that, […]
Doradrassil surveyed the land below as her hippogryph soared into the Blasted Lands. She had left Hearthglen promptly after the mission briefing, but still, a number of Templars were already massing. She saw many familiar faces who, by way of portals, had managed to arrive here even sooner than she. While some were unknown to […]
Laughter drifted throughout Star’s home. Food was piled on tables, mostly pies. Robin couldn’t think about portals or orcs, or anything like that. She was surrounded by family. This was the going-away party for both herself, and Auris Rainewind, the druid whom had adopted Ciera into her family. The two were close as sisters. […]
Koryander and Arialynn: Below is the documentation you've requested on where the money has come from and what sort of business I've conducted. Receivables: 1) Aertemis Hopesong – charitable donation from Aertemis to help me get my business running. I mentioned wanting to invest. She provided the capital to do it. 2) […]
"Do you have a few minutes to talk, little shadow?" Doradrassil smiled. Aertemis had always been able to sneak up on her, and the sudden sound of her voice had long since stopped making her jump. "Of course," she answered, looking up from some papers in the direction of the voice. Aertemis ghosted […]
The boat left Darnassus and Kage’s mother far behind. Robin breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the island disappear. So, she hadn’t broken Miss Sage. That fear was over with. She’d actually succeeded, or, she’d helped Sage’s own chi in righting itself. If Miss Sage was right she had, in a sense, healed […]
The war was over. Garrosh and his minions had been defeated many weeks ago now. In the quiet times between Orgrimmar and the new horde attacking the blasted lands, Morwel Starseeker stayed ever vigilant at the Ebon Hold. For days on end she would watch and listen on the viewing bridge of Archerus scanning every […]
Emma cringed as Mallory slammed the door behind them. Her sister had said she wanted to talk privately, but the paladin had a feeling that everyone aboard the Juuli's Hope would hear. She stared at Mallory for a long moment. Mallory did not meet her gaze, but looked down at the floor. She finally looked […]
OOC Info: The following is from Rotiana's Report Log. Rotiana is a guard from the Royal Lions Brigade who was assigned to investigate The Coven after Robin filed a report about potential missing persons. This journal contains IC report Rotiana filed after Robin and Ida met with her and reported their harrowing adventure in the Raven […]
It wasn't a ghost town. Not exactly. A few hardy stragglers still made Tranquility's Watch their home. Smoke rose from a smattering of chimneys. There were signs of a late harvest in the mostly-barren fields outside the walls. But the previous winter had, by all accounts, been harsh, and much of the population had migrated […]
"There," Emma said, setting down the pen. "No turning back now." Arialynn's eyes shifted to the parchment where Emma had just signed her name on the roster for the first wave to storm the Dark Portal. Her gaze returned to the young paladin, who still bore one or two burn scars from her last […]
"Seriously?!" Aertemis shot a look at Doradrassil. "That one wasn't me!" Doradrassil protested, peering in the direction of the explosion in the Iron Horde's camp. The mystery of the exploding orc camp was solved in moments, however. Rolling, obnoxious laughter pierced through the rumbling of the settling rubble and cries of orcs. The laughter […]
Doradrassil paced herself, controlling her breath as she crept through the lines. As her cloak brushed against an unsuspecting orc, he clapped his hand over the spot thinking to swat an imagined mosquito. The deadly Warden slipped by, working her way deeper into the ranks, seeing her way by the light of the fires and […]
The funny thing about fear (if the word “funny” can ever apply) is that it is unique to everyone. That is to say, everyone’s fears are their own, and no two people have the same virulent strains. Fear, in short, tailors itself to the individual. When that individual is actually several individuals thanks to the […]
OOC: When Patch 6.0.2 hit, I was traveling. This created an awkward in-character moment when my paladin’s absence from the battlefield couldn’t quite be explained. So I got to brainstorming a reason why the battle-hardened Arialynn was curiously absent when the Templars — an order she’s bled and would die for — abruptly went to […]
Doradrassil addressed other night elf Wardens stationed in the Blasted Lands, a copy of Justicar Dawnfield's war declaration in her hand on loan from Mallory. "Wardens…we are called upon when the needs are most dire, when the fate of us all hinges on a single victory or defeat. No one has called upon us today […]
The following is a decree sent to individual Templars and posted within Westguard Keep and Templar outposts. The bottom edge of the decree is adorned with a golden wax seal with the Maltese cross emblem. To the Rose, The Dark Portal is teeming. The Iron Horde is endless. These are not the green-skinned […]
Mallory blinked. Was that… Doradrassil? She thought the Warden had left already, but there she was talking with Sergeant Konse. Doradrassil saluted Konse crisply and turned away. "Dora?" Mallory called. She saw Doradrassil cringe. Mallory remembered, belatedly, that the Warden hated that nickname. Doradrassil slowly turned toward her and simply said, "Yes?" […]
Zen, What is this I hear about you peeking through guildstones at Templars? Address this matter as well as the nonsense you spouted about a “disclaimer in the Owner’s Manual.” Signed, Lightbearer Arialynn Dawnfield Justicar, Templars of the Rose Source: http://ariquill.tumblr.com/post/99412157486
Our son understands many things. He understands when it is time to be fed, when it is time to rest. Now that Taldrus and I are home, the days pass with us as a family unit perhaps for the first time. Even before Taran was born, we spent much time apart. Hellscream’s trial approaches. […]
Zen, I studied the rune again and I have a solution. I also remembered some of the things I learned from C—-, so I hope that this helps. We called them “spider runes.” Not that they’re shaped like spiders (I mean, they kind of are spindly and stuff, but most runes are), but […]
"Where did you find this young woman?" Rann was snapped out of her reverie by Shadowsage's sudden question as she continued to nurse the unconscious Idella back to health. The concern in her voice was clear. "In a crypt under Raven Hill Cemetery," Rann answered after having to think for a moment. The […]
OOC: Part of the Mirror, Mirror storyline, immediately following the events from Sunday's Broken Mirror event. This follows "Ella," or the Idella who was taken to Shattrath by Templars following "Ida's" disappearance. Ella's fingers knit into the fabric of her robe as her teeth bit into her lip. It was an awful nervous habit, but she couldn't stop […]
OOC: Part of the Mirror, Mirror storyline, immediately following the events from Sunday's Broken Mirror event. This follows "Ida," or the Idella who was taken. It was dark. Ida's head swam through a thick sea of confusion while her lungs heaved as if she just emerged from its murky depths. As her eyes adjusted […]
