[Story] Tathariel's Journal
So much for my theory. He had a bad dream last night, and the night before. I didn’t ask what they were about. He doesn’t want to talk about them, and I can guess well enough. I just hope he could have a nice one, once in a while. I suggested there are some potions that might improve sleep -- they actually prevent any dreams, but given his unique uh, features, they might react differently. He did not seem very keen on my idea of testing some simpler mixtures to see how they might react. I guess I can’t really blame him, but I am very curious about how they would affect death knights. Maybe I can get Aerandir to drink some.
Speaking of him, I sent him a letter telling him what’s going on. He wrote back, saying that he was in Northrend and enjoying his work there. He helped a village of people, and he told us to be safe. I am glad I have him to talk to, for a different perspective on things. He seems more human than worgen, but he’s also a death knight on top of that. It must be very hard for him. I hope that Elune grants him some of the solace he is seeking.
Jaellynn’s brother showed up at the inn yesterday. He wanted his help writing a letter to the human leader that went to Darkshore with us. The very same leader who recklessly rushed into the troll camps, getting a Sentinel killed and several others injured, and then had the audacity to blame everything on us. Now he wants us to help him with something, and Jaeyn wants to make a formal alliance. Every time I think I’ve heard the most foolish thing out of him, he goes and surprises me anew. I find it strange that he’d come all that way just for some help writing a letter. I’d like to believe that he’s worried about Jaellynn, and wants to apologize, but that’s probably just wishful thinking.
We went to Northrend today. I thought that he never wanted to go back, that’s what he said anyway, but he suggested that we go and see the basin there. There is a gate in Un’goro that connects to it, built by the titans. At first I thought nothing had happened, because it looked the same as the jungle we had just left. But Jaellynn showed me the animals there, and the strange fish-people. They look a bit like murlocs, but they were much less aggressive. He said they like shiny things, so I found an empty vial in my pack and gave it to one. He clutched it in his claws and went and buried it carefully next to a tree. I think he likes me now.
Jaellynn wanted to show me something else, so we flew over the mountains. It was Icecrown, where he had spent so much time. I can’t imagine staying there, even from high above, it was frightening and a feeling of unease came over me looking at it. There are still a great many Scourge there, I guess they haven’t realized what is going on. Or maybe they do, but cannot act any differently. I am not sure why he wanted to go there today. Maybe he doesn’t know either. I wish I knew what to say to make things better.
