Kalvia's story
The younger Draenai sits, her legs curled up under body in a neat fashion, her hands holding a hot cup of wine.
‘A child?’ She questions the older female ‘You have a daughter?’ Her eyes widen and she purses her lips.
The white Draenai smiles and nods slowly, her eyes down cast, her fingers idly twisting an ice throne into pulp.
‘How’ Frake obviously shocked by this news blurts out the first thing which comes to mind.
‘When a male wants sex, he takes a woman and..’ Tana starts smiling slightly at Frake ‘You are innocent dear, but not that naive I am sure. During my slavery there were owners who did not care of the outcome of their lust. Some would feed us herbs, nasty dangerous things which…’ she pauses for a moment ‘My daughter was with one of the kinder owners, he cared about his harem like none of the others did. He loved us in his own way, and even though I did not want to be there, I was grateful to him for his kindness, we all were. My daughter is his, he loved her, she was his only child. Sadly he was killed, and my daughter taken from my arms… I was then..’ her eyes mist over, the sudden lack of concentration causing the throne in her hands to stab her painfully.
The two women sit in silence for a moment, Tana sucks on her finger to stop the bleeding.
‘You miss her?’ Frake finally breaks the silence, her hands resting on her lap as she watches her older sisters face.
Tana smiles slightly again, removing the finger from her mouth and looking at the drop of red contrasting to her white skin ‘She is dead’ the words spoken slowly, with no emotion, shadows flickering around her body, shrouding her in darkness. ‘She was ripped from her fathers arms, he was forced to watch them do horrible, unspeakable things to us, and then, we were forced to watch as they ripped him apart’ the shadows dance around her, her eyes glowing embers in that black darkness. ‘Her name was Kalvia’

The young female sits by her Masters hooves, her eyes shining with joy watching him teach the class. She is his favourite and every now and then she caught him looking at her. She drank in every detail of him, his armour, his hands, his weapon. He was massive, even for a male, his hair tied back in a neat plat, his body ridged as he spoke.
‘That ends the lesson today class’ He draws his sword ‘go out and practice with your weapon skills, the Light will not stand idle while the Darkness sleeps’ He bows before the class, and as one his students stand, and file out. Kalvia lingers behind, before slipping out, not following the class.
She closes her eyes, feeling Jadaar’s arms around her, his sent filling her senses. She smiles leaning back into his warm arms, ‘Am I to get a private lesson now’ she turns to him, smiling, her lips meeting his, her eyes closing in pleasure at the kiss.

Standing my the wreak, Kalvia opens her eyes, the smell and sights assaulting her. The young Paladin strides forward, stepping over the chaired bodies towards the pod. She was one of the few who did not crash here, but eager to help out, and her lover dishonoured, she felt that she had to do something, anything. This task would take her mind of recent events, bring her closer to the light, to the Naaru, and maybe find her some answers.
