The young elf leaned his head back against the cushions, watching the violet-skinned girl dry her hair. With those fragile wrists and tiny fingers, her small body curving forward, the delicate shapes of her spine and shoulderblades showing through the thin cloth of her undershirt, she was roughly scrubbing her head and horns without a hint of elegance or grace. She lowered the cloth and tossed her wet hair, sneezed, and smeared her nose against her arm; then she blinked as the boy began to laugh at her.

He restrained his chuckling and shook his head, a characteristic awkward smile twisting his lips, and waved apologetically at the glaring girl. "You are cute," he said, truthfully.

By the everloving Light, Jia.

So we meet up in the Blasted Lands, with all those killer hyenas and DEMONIC BOARS, and they're all dirty from traveling for days and the man's arm is even bleeding, and when Pietro and I come up to them crying and? When we say that Master Plumfall already asked some Shattered Sun soldiers to escort us to Shattrath? She got mad. It wasn't even "let's go home," what the fel.

Astrolabe,

Today I confessed to Tiddia and it was fine. After was the same as before. She treated me very kindly today and complimented me on many strange things. She at least thinks I look more like a man than a boy now, and I was flattered. And when I told her the story she was not angered or frightened, I think at least, and when I asked if she thought I was weak for still having a panic reaction to that, she still said I was perfect the way that I am.

Maybe she was just saying especially nice things to make me calm down, but I was so happy to hear those kind words. And she says she wants to join the Ebon Blade so that she can stand in Icecrown with the army that protects life in order to protect me and to protect the ones I love. I was so happy to hear that.

Will you forgive her, Astrolabe? It is not fair of me to ask such a thing of Astrolabe when she is still so unhappy. I feel bad, I should have discouraged her from touring Draenor, I should have known that what she would see would upset her.

...


I am so happy that Tiddia wants to protect my Astrolabe. Because my Astrolabe is, to me, perfect the way she is.

Dear Seol!

Common of I gets better and better if I write.

This year holiday of Azeroth Hallows End is at Draenor also. I think last year it was also there. But last year I was sad and I feared to leave Shattrath. So I did not go. But this year I do not fear, and I am also happy to get candies for I and for Seol. So I am to go!

So I got a grifon. I wanted a wivern friend, but I do not speak orc, and people suspect someone purple on a wivern. People do not suspect a purple person on a grifon. A problem was that dwarves do not sell grifons but give a gift of a grifon to big people of the Alliance. I am not of the Alliance, so I got a grifon from a goblin with a lot of money.

It was not money of you. It was money of black smith work of I. I am so happy of I.

Oh dear.

Miss Jia and Galenos ran off today while I was out with Cosimo. From the tone of their letter I am afraid they are going to Outland, an entirely inappropriate place for a small child to be, no matter how clever she thinks she is. Cosimo is distraught and I dare not mention that I suspect that Outland was her destination because he will surely go charging after her... and I am quite sure that, despite his advantage in years, he is much less competent than Jia.

And then the young master came home in tears saying that he has angered Miss Dix and that she will not be coming home to us. By L.! What am I supposed to do with this suit now??

-- I should not be worrying about such trivial things as suits when the two boys are crying themselves sick over the loss of their friends.

And Miss Dix is not coming home to us? Will she be safe wandering the Horde alone? Such an innocent soul -- so many scheming, handsome, clever rogues would take advantage of her.

I think I will miss her a great deal.

Astrolabe,

You know I injured myself in the diversion tactic of the Shattered Sun at the Hellfire Peninsula. You worked hard to take care of me when I was ill, and I am sorry about it. But the tactic worked. Sunblades moved from Quel'Danas to the Hellfire Peninsula. Now the Magister's Terrace is not defended very well. The Offensive will attack tomorrow.

Because I recovered, I am also going. The front group will attack and destroy the demons. The rear group will keep the entrance clear and will fight the Sunblades if they return early. I will be in the rear group.

Maybe we can defeat the Legion at Quel'Danas forever. If we cut off the demons from their strong points maybe we can claim the Sunwell for good. Then maybe we can begin to heal it and make it stronger so that we will not get sick again.

I try to feel hope, and I try not to feel anger. And I try not to worry about the elves who probably will die. If I worry I will not be able to stand and raise my shield.

We leave before the dawn comes. I worry I will not talk to you before then. If I do not I will leave my journal with Anchorite Nindumen.

You already understand my feelings.

Hello Seol

I do not like to write journal. To write is very hard. My to noodle is sticky on words. The words stay in door. I am very sad and angry. So I am bad and do not wrote journal. In your ear is different. To talk is better.

But you are ill. So I write journal. Read more... )

Hello Astrolabe.

Today I understand why the Aldor hate blood elves a little better.

I fly over Draenor and see its wounds. The villages of Mag'har and Broken are tiny and surrounded by spiked fences. The ground is open and bleeding. I cannot feel the pain of the land because I am not a druid, and I cannot hear the water and earth spirits cry. But the memories of missing people are there on the ground. Thousands of Astrolabes disappeared. My small heart cannot feel so much grief.

And in Netherstorm, the Sunfury elves chew holes in the earth. Above the Hellfire Peninsula Felblood elves make themselves sick and sicker eating fel energy. On Quel'Danas the Dawnblade elves are calling demons and cutting the soldiers of the naaru. It is a war. Fire and arrows cover up the sky. The person at your left is bleeding. You talked to the woman at your right one minute ago, and now she is dead.

Hello Astrolabe. I am writing my journal. I hope you are also writing your journal. Writing is still slow because I have to check my textbook often, but it will get easier after practice.

Nagrand is beautiful. However, it is dangerous because the Alliance and the Horde fight constantly over Halaa. Demons in the west become powerful because few fight them. This makes me worry.

However, I helped a draenei of the Alliance operate goblin machinery. It took a long time and I broke my leg once when I fell, but we succeeded at last. I hope he will remember and not attack every blood elf he meets after this.
