A Letter To Lovely

[Maegannon]

A white envelope is wedged in between the door and frame of the Sanctuary guild hall. Upon the front of the letter, in pink toned calligraphy, is written the words, 'To: The Lovely Paladin'
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lovely!

I miss you! I managed to squeeze some information out of several.. little birdies, and found out that you joined Sanctuary! I'm glad to hear you're doing alright, I was worried! You sort of just vanished, and the next thing I'm hearing from people is that you ran off to some crazy Mistress Clys person and had her make you a new body! You could have at least stopped by and TOLD me! I've been going crazy for months looking for you!

I even had to hit up Cid for information. I still technically owe him for it too.. I'm dreading the day he decides to collect. He is a nice guy, but he scares the hell out of me.

In any case, please try and get in contact with me at your earliest convenience. I've got some things I need to ask you, and I don't trust myself to write them, for fear that the wrong person get a hold of this letter. Just drop me a line as to when is best to meet you, or just come to the appartment at Aldor rise and we'll go for a walk. Don't worry, Gralin will behave.

Lots of hugs,
Mae-mae.


PS: Have you seen Teelia around anywhere? I haven't seen her since you vanished, and I am having one hell of a time tracking her down. Silly rogues.

--------------------

Dearest Mae mae,

I'm sorry I couldn't contact you before I left, but things got a bit crazy. I had become severely addicted to several bad things, and was not in my right mind at all. Only through a moment of lucidity was I able to contact Clys Nex'Cruor and beg her for help.

Now I have a new body, and after some trials and tribulations, I am back in good spirits and have a clear mind for the first time in ages. And yes, I am a member of Sanctuary. I'm one of their guardians, and work to heal and help those members who might need it.

I have missed you so much. I saw you in battle in Silvermoon when First Legion and Sanrin's men attacked, but I knew when I fell under your paws that you had actually taken good care not to seriously injure me, and I appreciate that. Know that no matter what happens, or what battles we might be facing, I will do my best not to harm you, and will only try to incapacitate you if possible. I wouldn't want that pretty antlered head of yours harmed at all.

Skafloc had mentioned he saw you, and I talked to him last evening about you for quite a while. He is a decent man, and my half brother through adoption, and I try to look out for him.

He told me you had contacted him. Between us girls, may I ask why? I know he's attractive...Sometimes I get lost looking at him myself. Are you infatuated, or is this a business thing? Either would be fine with me, as long as I get to see you more often, and not in a combat situation. But if it is the former, I have to ask what happened to your husband. Is he well? Or did something, Light forbid, bad happen to him?

I hope that everything is well with you, and I miss you terribly.

As for Teelia, the last I saw of her she had ventured toward the lair of Kel'thuzad. I fear she may either be imprisoned or dead. I'm not sure. I pray for her soul often.

Write me back soon, Mae Mae. And I hope to see you soon so that I can hug you tightly.

Yours,

Lovely Nex'Cruor
Guardian of Sanctuary

A letter addressed to Lovely is wedged into the Sanctuary guild hall's entrance door.

Lovely!

Oh I'm so glad to hear from you! I'm so glad your finding life within the horde well and that you've found your calling! It's about derned time! Everybody was pretty worried about you there for a while, and to hear that you've found a good ballance to life makes an old elf's heart soar! Of course I could never bring myself to harm you, no matter what body you might be living inside currently. If it means you need to be on the enemy's side in order to find yourself, then I support you!

Okay, truth time, because I don't think I could trust anyone else enough, or myself even, to talk to anyone else about it.

I think I'm loosing my mind.

Gralin is alive and relatively well, enjoying retirement like any tough old Dwarf would. I'm only slightly worried about him, because he's been acting kind of strange lately, moping around the apartment, staying in bed for hours at a time during the day.. not that I blame him, with the way I've been acting.

What do I mean? Well.. It has to do with Skafloc. I.. well I don't know how I feel exactly. He sort of hit a nerve in me that I didn't know I had. I ran into him out in Zangarmarsh one day, and normally I would have killed him on sight.. I dislike blood elves, its a long story, but something about him just.. well it felt like home.

I told you, I'm going insane.

He just reminds me so much of the quiet, green woods of moonglade, of saftey and sanity. If he had been Kaldorei instead of Sin'dorei, he would have been a druid. I can feel his aura, and its absolutely driving me insane.

Don't get me wrong, I love Gralin, love him with every fiber of my being.. I'd never betray him, or our bond...

But..

I keep finding myself thinking of Skafloc, day dreaming about what-ifs. My mother is, technically, Quel'dorei, an original.. she chose to stay with our people at the very last moment, but it doesn't make her any less a Highbourn then Skafloc's ancestors were. He makes me wonder what would have happened had she decided to go with her station instead of marry my father.

I don't know. I don't think I've ever been sane, with my weird taste in short men.. but this is starting to get ridiculous. I just managed to mend my relationship with my father. If he ever found out I was harboring feelings for a blood traitor (no offense!) I would be out-right kicked out of Darnassus, not to mention even my own mother would never speak to me again.

I was hoping that I could just forget about him, go about my life and not worry about some silly hunter from the horde whom struck a cord with me. I've recently re0joined with First Legion, and Its been a absolute blast being able to play around with my boys again. I've missed them terribly, and to adventure in this new world with formillar faces is a dream come true..

But I found out how wrong I was in thinking that.. I ran into him, (Well, he ran into me, actualy) in the Worlds End the other afternoon.. and we spoke. I know now that I couldn't just ignore him, atleast not anymore. I want to know him, know everything there is to know about him, become friends. Okay, thats not the truth, and I know you'll understand better then anyone when I say this, but I wanna get.. feral.. with him.

I think I'm going to the bowls of the world now, for sure. I can't believe I just wrote that. I'm going to die, meet Elune, and she's going to turn me away from eternety with a look of contempt on her face for my even thinking of it..

What should I do? Help me.

Yours,
Mae mae.

A letter in response is secretly delivered to Maegannon....

-----------------

Mae Mae,

I can fully understand what you are going through. I've been there myself a few times, and empathize greatly.

I also understand what it means to love someone, but to have the instincts to want to hunt another. And if you had asked me a week ago for my advice I would have said something completely opposite than what I am about to say right now.

I think you should do what you can to be happy. At the same time you should make sure not to hurt Gralin. Therefore I propose that you separate the two sides of yourself as only a druid can. Love Gralin, but be feral with Skafloc, and if he wishes to be with you, work out an arrangement.

You have to be true to yourself, Mae Mae. Make yourself happy and live for yourself. I've discovered just a few days ago that you can do this and still have love for others.

But be careful. Not everyone will understand. As a matter of fact, be prepared to be cast out or possibly hurt. Such is the price to pay.

Whatever you decide to do, I will support you because you are my friend. And I will support Skafloc as my brother.

Please write back and let me know if I've helped, or just confused you more. I hope that everything is okay, and that you make a decision that will stop any stress you may be having.

Yours,

Lovely Nex'Cruor

Guardian of Sanctuary.
