Where shall I begin..?
I suppose it's easy enough to say that my life so far has been tumultuous. It's a lot harder to go into detail as to why. I guess I will start at the beginning.
I was found by my mother and father in Moonglade, as a baby. Moonglade is dark, but I was apparently illuminated by a ray of sunlight through the thick canopy. My parents named me Lankali, or "Sunsong" in Orcish. They also raised another orphaned tauren, my brother Diyyavayo "Sleeping Bear", and their own natural children, Kilukiamma, "Northern Star", and Liavus, "Eastern Wind".
My mother and father named Sleeping Bear and I accordingly. I loved music, and he was always very at peace with his druidic abilities. We were inseperable, and even as my skills surfaced and I was considered dangerous, he never left my side. My mother and father never sent me away, although they should have. Sleeping Bear left for Mulgore, to search for his past in the land of our ancestors. He never returned. When my power became uncontrollable, I was sent to Thunder Bluff to speak to the druids there. I promised to find my brother, but have yet to have found him. I miss him dearly.
When I arrived in Mulgore, I explored. I explored Azeroth, and found an inn. I asked if anyone had seen my brother, and I met a shaman named Diomades.
(scratch marks)
I shouldn't write of him. He didn't do anything wrong, I suppose. He loved me for a very short time, and then learned that I was not suited to his taste. That's all. For a short time we lived together. We discussed having children. He talked about marrying me, and a day later, told me that things were moving too fast and left me.
Then I found out he was sleeping with a trolless. A kind lady named Kimiji.
I was hurt, of course.. but what could I do? I worked in my garden. Nojinbu gave me a patch of earth to grow things, his poisons mostly. I grew them, and tomatoes, and flowers and all sorts of other things. My garden became my life, until one day I was attacked by another troll and her dog.
I suppose I've neglected to say that they kidnapped me, earlier. I managed to escape the first time, but this time she had me collared. I was trapped in my bear form, and while owned by Neesa and her ilk, was forced into slavery. It was so demeaning. I wanted to murder everything that I saw. They did everything that they could to keep me under control, from starving me to beating me to electrocuting me with that collar.
Eventually I was rescued. I felt like even more of a burden.
I made friends. I thought that I did. Yemana was kind and brave, and I thought she would be my rolemodel. Yichimet was.. frightening. I met a shaman, a draenai. I met with the Grimtotem, who I discovered were my birth parent's tribe. I met Chiltutut, my red bird.
A month or so ago.. my parents died. They wanted to help me to look for Sleeping Bear. They made it as far as the Stonetalon Mountains, and they were murdured by a Shu'halo.
Yemana said that they had no business being there. I argued that the Earthmother would share her land. Why should one lay claim to what is not to be owned? I feel betrayed by my teachings, I feel betrayed by my people and my friends. I have isolated myself to my garden, because plants always have nice things to say. They can not hurt me, like people do.
My thoughts dwell on a secret I am keeping. A very important one, for a very important person. I care for him, and hope that he in turns feels the same. I have made a new friend named Anthek, and it seems he is quickly falling in love with me, or at least is infatuated with me. I care for him, but I can not betray my heart. I know the way I feel is wrong. He is not a kind person, he is not at peace with the world, and by the Earthmother, he has been cruel and disgraceful, but there is something about him that I somehow adore.
I am very confused.
