I killed WoW *gasp* I really cancelled my subscription. In other news, I will start a new job Jan. 29, assuming I passed my drug test this afternoon. Good times, and a good deal more than I'm making at Hobby Lobby. They're gonna pay me to play with computers. Woo hoo!!! I survived an entire week of class. I think I can make it. With my new job, I might just resubscribe to WoW for Spring Break, with the condition that I only play on weekends after that, but ONLY if one of my WoW buddies posts to this blog. If not, you have to wait until May! :P
Such follows the account of Elfweenia and how she and her sisters escaped from Azeroth:
Late one evening, Elfweenia decided she was tired of fighting things, and so traveled to Stormwind, her favorite City, to lose herself in the library for a good long rest. She found a nice long history book, a good chair, and settle in for the night. Whether it with thirty minutes or a few hours later, she doesn't know, but an old gentleman she hadn't seen before interrupted her reading.
"Would you like to travel to a different land, miss?" he asked.
"I would, but all the farther areas are to tough for me right now," she replied.
"No, I can show you how to travel outside of Azeroth, where you don't have to fight your way around. You can return here whenever you wish. You will, however, return to this very spot exactly as you are now."
"Hmmm...I won't gain anything from going? But I don't have to worry about getting killed every 5 minutes...how can this be?"
"The are other worlds. You can teleport away from here and return here whenever you wish, but until you've traveled somewhere, it's random where you will end up. Take this amulet. Once you've traveled somewhere outside of Azeroth, you need only concentrate on that place to return there and hold it like this in your hands. To return to Azeroth, you will turn the stone inside it around and hold the amulet this way."
Elfweenia took the amulet, looked at it for a few minutes, looked up to ask him another question, but he was gone. How strange, she thought, as she held it in her hand, but what else have I to do? Just then, a strange glow formed around her, much like teleporting, but purple, then blue, yellow, orange, green...spinning, turning, then all was quiet. She looked around her to find green rolling hills all around, with a small stream running beside her. She discovered she still had all of her equipment with her, so she decided to fish for a bit.
Meanwhile, Amanda Kay just happened to meet the same old gentleman, though she didn't know it at the time. Amanda Kay can be a bit stubborn, ok a lot stubborn when she wants to be, but in the end, curiosity won out and she found herself just over the hill from where Elfweenia was fishing quietly.
Hallane, on the otherhand, did not meet the same old gentleman. Knowing that he would not be able to safely reach her, the old man rode a gryphon overhead, dropping the amulet just in front of her. Taking this as a certain sign of change ahead, Hallane took the amulet in her hands, and looked it over curiously. Unknowingly, she found the secret to using it and found herself across the stream from her quitely fishing older sister.
At first, Hallane was afraid, as she hadn't seen her sister since she was born, and couldn't remember ever seeing a gnome. "Who are you?" she asked shyly.
"Elfweenia, what's your name?"
"Hallane. Could you tell me where I am?"
"I'm sorry, I've only just arrived here myself, but you're welcome to join me fishing if you'd like."
"I don't have a fishing pole, but I'd like to join you. I hope you don't mind me asking, but what are you?"
"I'm a gnome." Just then Elfweenia stopped, realizing all this time she'd been talking to a Tauren and acutally understanding what she said. Then she remembered the small child found what seemed like ages ago and realized this was her sister. Somehow in the short time Hallane was with Elfweenia and Amanda Kay, she'd either picked up gnomish or had learned it since, but how would that be possible? "Do you remember anything about your childhood, Hallane?"
"Not really. I seem to remember a very cold place, all white. For some reason, it seems everyone there was as tall as I was, but I was so small. I don't know how that would be possible."
"You are my sister, Hallane. We found you when you were just a baby, but you grew so fast, we knew we couldn't keep you, so we sent you to the Tauren village where we knew you would be safe."
The two began chatting about their lives, with no worries about the time.
"Well, there you are, sis. I should've known that crazy old man would find you, too. Hello, Hallane. I didn't think I'd ever see you again, but you sure aren't the little squirt you were when we found you. I'm Amanda Kay, by the way, and a dwarf, in case you didn't know."
"Nice to meet you, Amanda Kay. How did we get here? I was hunting near the village when this amulet fell from the sky. I picked up and the next thing I knew, I was here."
"That amulet is how you came to be here. It can take you to many places, far from Azeroth, and return you again. Here, let me show you how it works," as Elfweenia began to explain to Hallane what the old man had told them.
The three sisters, an odd combination, perhaps, thus began their journey to other worlds.
