A New Companion (Journal) by Setrema

[Keeper Of Lore]

Harlot, wenchling, Miss Icy Panties? Who in the fel does he think he is talking to me in such a manner? He started all this with the theft of a kiss in Zangarmarsh, not me!

I was not the one seeking out the lips of anyone pure.

I was not the one who stole someone's first kiss.

I was not the one who acted as if it were nothing.

I was the one who took back what was mine.

I was the one who it meant something too.

Oh, but I am a slut for taking a kiss from someone who took one from me? Ridiculous.

[Keeper Of Lore]

So much emotion, not enough words to describe it. I had just recieved a blue dress as some sort of reward. Out of nowhere, as is his fashion, my knight was there. Nymare was there too, with a picnic basket. It turned out so picturesque. We three sitting there, scheming about ending a draenei while giggling over some cool water. It was pleasent.

Nymare left, taking her basket as well. It was just he and I. We nearly... But Rosalynd showed up, which was awkward to say the least. Interrupted.

A short bout passed, the assailant fleeing before we could slay it, and once again he and I were alone. Then it happened. I let my guard down, I walked to him and just stood there against him. He gave me a kiss, and then he said it.

"I love you, Setrema."

I almost doubted my ears. I should have. I knew I wasn't hallucinating. It was a rush, hearing it from him.

"I...Iove you too."

It was like a fairytale I read as a child.

[Keeper Of Lore]

So many wonderful things in such a short amount of time...

I love him, he loves me. I have completed my training. I have a Talbuk...

Life is going splendidly.

[Keeper Of Lore]

Love.. What exactly is it? I say the words now as if a hollow reaction, but i think I always said them that way. He is a good man, does take care of me. But, is this a relationship of convinience for us... for me?

Archive, do you know what Love is? I thought I did, really. I assumed it was finding someone you didnt want to live without, or could hardly bear being away from. Is it that? If that is the case, then I don't think I love him as I should...

It's not important right now. I have so much requiring my time and my attention, such as my studies. They have been consuming many of my waking hours as of late, not that I am angry with such. I will become more powerful...power.

I went on my first assault today, I did fine as long as the vanguards stayed up. The moment they fell, I was the next target, which meant I must have been causing some pain to the ogres...Enough pain. I lack some more desirable clothing so, I can only imagine how things will change with that.

Time, I need more. Much more.

[Keeper Of Lore]

I have sat here looking at you for quite a few ticks, not knowing what to say. I shouldn't speak too loud, as I do not want to wake him. I still haven't a clue what I should tell you.

I can start with my companion I guess. The knight is a good man, and I care for him. Perhaps not in the same way as he, but he is more than a friend. I enjoy his company, and he does much for me. He is so chivalrous though, which has its own charm, but sometimes seem a little smothering. I can over look that though. I am still sure there are those who don't care for the relationship, and I am starting to care less and less about that. People are just that. I want a partner, someone I can rely and depend on. So far, my knight is just that.

Beutha has almost caught up with me in training now, and that excites me. I miss venturing with her. I really do. I miss spending time with her peroid. She really is splendid. I spoke with her a little today and it went well. Though, she wanted to give he and I time alone, which is very thoughtful of her.

I seemed to have made a new friend recently as well, another mage at that. Lysanthar is what he goes by. He is ever so polite, which is a refreshing change from the stream of absolute rudeness I have dealt with as of late. I can't see why people seem to strive to be so inconsiderate to others.

Hmmm... Well, a random little tidbit of...We shouldn't speak of that little misshap Nymare and I endured. I haven't told him about it yet and I am sure he would be rather....suprised about it. Though he has seen me as a two headed beast with flames streaming down my spine...Maybe he won't be so surpised. I won't risk it just yet.

There is a sword in the Shadow Labyrinth that has been evading both Nymare and I since we have undertook the task of obtaining it. Really, one would think one of us would have gotten it by now. If that were the case, one would have thought wrong. Murmur doesn't even seem to carry it when either she or I enter the doors to that place. I tire of the seeking of it. Now I am sure after I get an alternate blade, similar in power to it, I will get the damned thing.

Sparatic yet somewhat linear. Anyway I should go back to resting. Rest well Archive.

[Keeper Of Lore]

Oh Archive, it has been some time since you last heard my stories, yet barely anything has changed...

I have the sword that had escaped my grasp for so long. It is wonderful to gaze at, though I am sure it inspires fright in my enemies. I have a new dress and a new hood. They are far more splendid to look at than the blade, by far!

Quel'Danas has become accessible by us once more. You know what this means, correct? I honestly don't know why I expect you to answer me just yet, I still haven't even given you eyes, let alone a mouth. It means that I hae even more opprotunity to learn and gain power. The fool Kael'thas is some twisted, broken thing. We really should break him entirely now.

The knight and I parted ways for now. I can't give him what I feel he deserves, far more than a few moments here and there. It is.... I really don't know.

[Keeper Of Lore]

Time has passed, and the Ivory Tower has handed me some lovelies gifts. A gadget, a dagger and a new sash, oh joy.

On a side note, I am becoming a rather impressive martial artist, considering my lack of time spent training.

Sadly, not much else of note. Oh well.

[Keeper Of Lore]

We must speak more, most definitely.

Archive, I was almost "Mrs. Irithel Duskfire" today. Iacton will pay for trying to have me we some stranger.

I'll break him the next time I find him. Not to the point where he cannot be fixed, after all, that would be most regrettable. We just need to break him to the point where he has learned a lesson.

Oh I made a new dress today. It is wonderful.

Of course I have done more, but you don't need to know everything. Besides, Would you really want to?
