Loss

Elisabeta and I met when we were so young.  She had it all together on the outside and I didn't.  Yet on the inside, I knew the path that would lead me where I wanted.  Unfortunately for Sabe, she didn't have a clue.  We've known one another for a hundred years and yet, in all that time, she never opened up to me about her parents and what happened to them.  I pieced it together, but it still wasn't the same as her trusting me with her parent's deaths.  Instead, she trusted me to be her one confidant and that, more than anything else, told me she was a true friend.

I was foolish to think that working near the Blue Dragon Flight in their current, deranged state, would pose no threat to myself.  And though I always worked with others, it took merely one moment of inattention for me to be kidnapped.  They were rough, but not to the point of death--they needed me alive so they could suck my magic from me.  It will take me some time to recover from this.  I'm not certain I ever will again to be honest.  There are so many things I've now forgotten~

*ink blotch*

Elisabeta came, however.  I some how knew she would.  She came and she pulled me out of the prison they held me in.  She pulled me onto her windrider and we took off for Warsong Hold.  I honestly don't remember much of what happened, but we were blasted apart and I pulled out the stupidest, most worthless, yet life-saving spell of them all: slowfall.  And yet, I couldn't find Elisabeta until she was too far away.  She was dashed against the rocks on the shoreline.  I touched down a mile away, but I swam anyway.  I was so desperate to get to her I ignored everything, including a broken ankle, until after I found her body.

I polymorphed her body so I could carry it.  I hobbled to the Amber Ledge and colapsed there.  A few days later I woke in Dalaran.  They had a ceremony for Elisabeta.  Because she was a corporal and on her way to becoming an Argent Champion, several officers were there to pay their respects.

She's buried on my estate now.  I planted a willow near her grave in her memory.

*tear drop*

I will miss you, my dear friend.  I will never forget your sacrifice, I swear it.  I hope you've finally found peace.

And now the part I dread.  Informing Jakaresh of her death.  This won't be easy, but it's something I must do.
