Roaring quietly.

February 11th, 2013 · No Comments · the Ai'loa, The Primal, The Wakeful One

‘You were quiet when you came back. I should have known.’ There was silence for a few moments to weigh the option of a conciliatory gesture or a final imprecation under my breath. As there was no clear choice, I sagged into the sand further and rubbed my aching legs. ‘Yes. You’re angry, Dzivah can […]

The old with the new.

Procuring supplies for a trip of unknown duration attracted some strange questions, and put me in touch with strange merchants. And to whom do these merchants owe their livelihoods? The wretches, the villains, the unscrupulous… But it still came as a surprise to see him, even if it shouldn’t have. Drek’tal: as strong, jagged and […]

Chasing the steel.

Work is scarce in Booty Bay, and I fear I’ll take to petty thievery again to live the life I’ve become accustomed to. Pride dictates I shouldn’t turn to my old brethren, but a strange compulsion is driving me to seek out Brother Ohiska. It’s as though the fates are conspiring to end me of […]

Pity.

I don’t even care any more. And that is the greatest freedom: the freedom from one’s imperiled emotions. When apathy kicks in, you have not lost. Not in my opinion. When you no longer care for them, it is they who have lost, not you. You have conquered. The greatest tragedy for him is to become completely […]

Hearts are idle.

If you seek to pay for your transgressions in my blood, and not your own, then is there not a fundamental flaw in your methods? Apologies have become pointless, vapid, hollow expressions employed merely so that one may continue to garner favor in a one-sided relationship. This is how it has come to devolve between […]

Doomed.

After every great burn, I die. I die and I die. But before I burn away forever, I shall remember these strange yet tender moments. These rare feelings. The camaraderie I have never experienced before. The Sandfury was the first. She helped me to change my mind, and helped me to realize that my judgments […]

Feather and claw.

Once more Drek’tal takes me to hunt. He feels his duty now is to impart wisdom on me. “Dzivah shall require no new mate in the event of my death. She will be self-sufficient” he remarks to the Tribal Mother. Ah, they’re both quite ignorant when they speak of what I can and cannot do. […]

Learning to fly.

The tribe’s stay in Stonetalon has had me uneasy. A thorn in my side begins to ache once more. I push aside my fears and struggle along, but the pain can be crippling if you do not address the problem… I’m a coward. I don’t even dare to write about it. So I will not. […]

On the run.

“Get your shit, and your bear. We are leaving.” I didn’t protest, as much as I despise him ordering me around. This is my fault. Drek’tal is acting in my best interest, even if he is taking the opportunity to make me feel like dirt for my transgressions. So we rode out of Durotar, under the auspices of a […]

Surrender.

It wasn’t long before my big mouth and my even bigger flame got me into trouble. The eyeless former Jin approached the tribal mother and I as we sat by the only cool patch of water in the entirety of Durotar. The heat must have been insidious that day. I don’t recall. No amount of […]
