(Open to all RP) A lovely day to pick apples!

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

The sun was shining brightly in the sky, playing tag with a flew lazy long thin clouds in the sky as it tried using them to leap frog its way to the very center of the heavens to declare with all it's bright warmth that it was mid day!

The lush forest of Elywnn was a favorite spot of Shari's to play among the trees's branches, drip through the rives and swim in the lakes.

Today, she had just finished having a swim. Her long hair still damp from the water with a few pieces of lake moss stuck throughout it defied blowing in the gentle breezes coming down from the mountains. Due to the amount of people that also seemed to enjoy the forest she found it was best for all if she at least wore two thin pieces of leather when she was swimming to cover her bits. Now while a thin piece may cover her flat chest very well, it took a considerable amount more to cover her hind end. The druidess however as not brought up to be shy in the least, so if someone should stop and stare, there wasn't much she could do. It wasn't like she was one of the Draenei females parading around the Inn at night for coin, after all.

The grass was soft beneath her bare feet and she still reveled in having more than two toes. She had been back fully from the Horde now a little over a week, but her true body was still a gift to her to keep getting used to.

As she was prancing along the grass she happened to note an apple. They were a human treat that she had come to admire the taste of, and she was sure if she picked enough she could give them out to people in Stormwind who looked like that may need a smile.

Grabbing her pack she hummed to herself as she began hunting down only the choicest of apples that were already laying bedded down in the soft grass. When she ran out of those she put her hands on her lips and stared up into the large apple tree.

"Oh, well you're going to need to share more of those i think!" she laughed speaking in her Darnassian tongue.

[Grimunz]

As he leaned against a nearby tree, chewing on a piece of saw grass he gazed towards the lake and noticed the Kaldorei looking up into a very large Apple tree. He thought to himself " That Kaldorei looks familiar "(( Taking she is her old self ))
He lets out a light whistle, as he picks up a small stone and skips it across the water.

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

((i wish we coulda met in game to rp this out!!! ))

Hearing the whistle Shari looked over her shoulder and saw the figure of a man. The visage had become much older (as humans tend to do over the years) than her memory was whispering to her, but she was certain it must be the same person.

Quietly as her thoughts were processing the situation she watched the stone skip a couple times across the water leaving little wakes as they went, foot prints to disappear almost as quickly as they had been left.

But this man, had left footprints in her memory that had dried in stone. Her whole body then turned in the direction she was facing, as if pirouetting beautifully in place her wet hair spraying out droplets of crystal about her. "Mister Grimun!?" Her doe-eyes went wide and she picked up her steps running toward him, "Mister Grimun!?" Each syllable became higher pitched, her arms opening up for a hug as she was now only a few feet from him.

[Grimunz]

As he noticed her turn and start toward him many thought went through his head. " Is she going to attack, is she going to forgive, will she spit on him " he stood his ground. As she opened her arms not in a menacing way, as she said his name, a small side smile crossed his face. " Lady Sharia " He spoke as he slowly opened his arms.

[Grimunz]

(( RP will be on a time based schedule, since I am now stationed in Seoul, Korea. Yup back in the Pacific ))

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

The small closed the gap between them and wrapped her arms about him tightly. She smelt of the lake water she was still wet from...and now likely soaking his clothing as well.

"Is it truly you?" carefully she stepped a foot or so back to really get a good look at him. He was older, but certainly the same man she remembered from many years ago.

A small cloud floated through her memories, reminding her why he wasn't still part of the family, and still wearing their colors. The smile on her lips darkened somewhat but did not fade away entirely. "It is very nice to see you!" And it was, all things considered. Elves live a long time, and if they were to cling to ever misdeed that happened in what was more or less a wink of time to them that would be horrible.

"Please, please," she gestures toward a smoothish dry place under the large tree they were standing under, "Let's sit! Do you have time? How are you!?"

[Grimunz]

Taking the Kaldorei into his arms he gave a light squeeze, feeling the cool wet feeling seep through his shirt he wanted to pull back. But choose to hold the embrace a tad bit longer. The smell of the lake tickled his nostrils as he breathed in, his nose tried to pick up what the smell actually was.

" Yes it is me Shari, it is me " As she sized him up, he quirked and looked her over. She did not seem to age typical of her race. He always wondered what happened to the rest of the crew after his depature. He wondered if she knew why he left or what was told on why he left. At times he himself questioned on why he just up and left.

" Likewise it is good to see you too, an for you I have all the time to sit and talk, catch up "

He looked down he really did not know how to answer her last question " How was he " He thought to himself the thought probably could be read across his face * How am I *

" To be honest I do not know how I am, After I departed the gang. I guess I have become a bitter broken man, After Naoki I presume is dead I do not know " Something he was not to keen on " I had heard rumors she died but returned as Xrailax had as Deader. But that is just hearsay " He looked up into her eyes " I died, was part of a troop that helped assault Arthas in Northrend. His blade sliced me from neck to abdomen, Then he booted me off the top of his Citadel " He looked back down then back up " A friend of mine's sister, I think not by blood though, partices the dark arts like Kat, From what they say she capture my soul in a shard or something and saved me "

He smiled a bit " How about you?"

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

She sat down quietly listening to him, making sure he was comfortable and finished when she finally spoke after curling a lock of hair back over her shoulder. One of the feather adorned braids was stubborn though and slipped back over to dangle a bit in the wind and as she moved.

It was a few moments before she spoke, her softly glowing eyes washing over his features, weighing all his words with that gentle smile of hers. The sun now dappled through the leaves like mini spotlights.

"My goodness Sir," her tone was soft and comforting, "you have certainly been through a lot haven't you. And even almost really dead- or -were- dead... But the important thing is you are here and sitting talking to me." There was a light nod as she took his right hand in her burn scarred one. "i cannot say i ever heard of Miss Naoki being anything to Mister Xrailax. He still adamantly calls the Lady his wife..." she paused scrunching up her face in thought her eyes glancing to the left, "i truly cannot remember any mention of Miss Naoki." Her eyes fluttered and she looked down to his hand in hers, "i'm sorry. i am certain Mister Xrailax will be able to help you more with information. i hope so anyway."

Shifting a bit she shrugged and wiggled her toes and free fingers, "Me, well, not a troll anymore! Boy that was an experience! Luckily to my knowledge all the Cats who went, never came to harm. However the transformation did affect some in unforeseen ways. Like changing more than just outward physical appearance like it was supposed to do. Some took on actual characteristics of the race much more than they should have... in some cases it was harmless, in others, i don't think in the end one would be able to truly tell they were anything but what they appeared." Her tone became pained and somber, "They all ended up going their own separate ways. Lured by one thing or another. Turns out the Sickness we were trying to avoid was the least of our worries. In the end, their minds were altered anyway."

Her lips pressed together as she inhaled a shaky breath, "Even.. even Lady Kat is still over there. She's still there Sir." her gaze became hard, "And she is talking about staying." There was a pause and her tone changed quickly as she smiled suddenly, "But! Mister Xrailax and i aren't about to let that happen of course. We cannot lose -her- too, she IS the Cats! So we are trying to come up with some ideas on that but currently cannot agree on one. Your input may be helpful, if he chooses to speak to you about it. Maybe i should not have told you myself, but goodness, i am glad to see you."

[Griunz]

He looks at her a bit as she tells the tell, but lets her finish as not to interrupt her. He smiles when she mentions X and Naoki, then goes back to listening to her. After a little while after she speaks he talks

" No Shari, Naoki was my wife, she was a Cat for a while but I guess her duties as a Sentinel were more important to her so she left, I stayed. What I meant that I heard she became like Xrailax was she brought back as a Death Knight. But again all those are rumors "

" As for you becoming a Troll? I was not aware that happened, How did it happen? Probably some great magics were involved. Kat wants to stay over there? I hope she did not tranform into a Sindorei I cannot stand them "

Looks down as he says that remember the one Sindorei that he had befriended thinking somehow a bridge between the horde an aliance could be made. Shakes his head

" Yeah I really cannot stand them " Blinks a few times " But anything I can do to help let me know " Gulps a bit " Not sure Xrailax would want my help, I think he would rather stick a sword in my gut "

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

She giggled, "Oh i know she was your wife silly! i remember the wedding. Humans have a unique way of doing things. It was sad how things turned out with her, with all the Cats. Almost all." her gaze rested on him however in a way that included in him with the 'all' and she looked sad for it. "Death Knights don't seem to be so bad... although Mister Xrailax does have some strange mannerisms since he was changed. Either way, i am certain wherever miss Naoki is, she is as well as she can be. i hope she is happy in her new life. Are you... are you happy in yours?"

"The Cats that remained, we all took a Bauble of Beguilement. It is like an Orb of Deception for the effects are more... permanent. And dangerous now that we've used one. No," Shari giggled a bit and shook her head, "The Lady did not choose the form of a Blood Elf, she has become an orc. i am disturbed to admit it does suit her very well. Don't let her know i said that!!"

She listened to his last words and frowned lightly. It was true he was a Traitor, and by rights she should not be talking to him, at all. "i think you should contact him, and talk to him, about a lot of things. i would like to see you return home, if you'd like that, but then again, i trust a lot of more easily than he does. And i'm not certain what the Lady would say seeing you again either."

[Grimunz]

He notice the frown upon her face " I know the rules, You are taking a risk just a talking with me. I would do just about anything to make amends. "

He looks down a bit then back up to meet her eyes. His eyes seem to water a bit but only so slightly

" Where can I meet with the old man? How do I find him?

[Shari'Adune Forestsong]

"i am certain he will find you, Sir." she smiled a little bit, "But please tell me," her eyes searched his, "Why did you do what you did? Even after swearing the oath? Don't you still have the same branding as i do?" she nodded to the back to back Cs on her upper inner left arm.

"And it's been so very long... why do you wish to come back?"

* Looks at her * Shari I well miss belonging to something special. I eff'd that up pretty bad before by walking away from the ooath I took. *looks down the back up, scratches his temple* Being alone for such a long time makes one think.

*His eyes seem to try and avoid the first part of her question, but he lets out a sigh*

I left because I gave everything I am to the gang and I tried to give everything I could to Naoki. I guess the pressure was to much that even the blood oath couldnt keep it in. I had to get away. I guess you could say a self finding visionquest something nother.
