In the dark of the night
I was tossing and turning
And the nightmare I had was as bad as can be
It scared me out of my wits
A corpse rising by fists
Then I opened my eyes
And the nightmare was seen!
I was once the most trivial man in all Stormwind
When the keepers betrayed me, They made a mistake!
My spell made each of them pay!
But one woman got in the way!
Little Nao beware!
Celthin's aware!
In the dark of the night
Evil will stop her!
In the dark of the night
Just with the Dawn!
Revenge will be sweet!
When the runes are complete!
In the Dark of the night
They'll be GONE!
I could feel that my powers are slowly expanding
Tie my sash and a dash of Wolfbane for that smell
As the pieces fall into place
I'll see them crawl into graves!
Troslvynai, Naomis
Fairwell!
In the dark of the night
Terror will strike him (Terror's the least I could do!)
In the dark of the night
Evil is true
Soon he will feel
That his nightmares are real!
In the dark of the night
They'll be through!
In the dark of the night
Evil will find her! (Find her!)
In the dark of the night
Terror comes to~~~ (Doom her!)
My sir, Here's a sign
It's the end of the line
In the Dark of the night
In the Dark of the night
Come my servants
Defend your master
Let your evil shine (In the dark of the night, in the dark of the night!)
Guard her now,
Yes, fly ever faster!
In the dark of the night
In the dark of the night
She'll be mine!

Songs about Characters - Round Three: Elsa
Elsa?
Do you want to go run Sunwell?
Come on, Let's go and kill.
I never raid anymore,
and there's a port,
It's like you'd wanna play
We used to be best raiders,
But now we're not.
I wish you would tell me why!
Do you want to go to Sunwell?
It doesn't have to be Sunwell. (Do Not Disturb)
Okay Bye...
Do you want to go run Sunwell?
Or Ride our hog around Stormwind?
I think some Roleplay is overdue,
I've started talking to,
The Newbies of the Pub! (Hang on Rosa)
It gets a little boring,
All these sucky groups
Just wiping at all the mobs! (Swish stab, swish stab, swish stab.)
<Enters Vent> Elsa?
Please... I know you're in here.
People are asking where you've been.
They say "Just boot her."
But I'm lying too,
I'm right on here for you
Just tell me when?
We always knew each other
It's just 2v2
What are you gonna do?
Do you want to go run Sunwell? <Log off sound>
Do you want to go run Sunwell?
Come on, Let's go and kill.

Songs about Characters - Round One : Alex!
Let it go Parody - Alex style
The Moon glows white on the Mountain tonight
Not a cultist to be seen
A city of isolation, and it looks right
On the seen
The wind is howling
Like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep her in,
Goldrin knows I've tried
Don't let them live,
Don't let them scream,
Be the good wolf you always have to be
Reveal, don't seal.
Don't let them show
Well now they know
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
Can't force us back anymore
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
Turn away and face the floor
I don't care
What they're going to say
Let the gore rage on
The blood never bothered me anyway
It's funny how some killing
Makes everything feel right
And the fear that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all
It's time to see what they can do,
To test the limits and break through
No Right, No Wrong, No rules for me
I'm free
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
I am one with the wolf inside
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
You'll never see me cry
Here I stand,
And here I'll stay
Let the gore rage on!
The wind is howling in through the air and in the ground
My soul is spiraling in wave-like fractals all around
My one thought crystalizes like I'm flying fast
I'm never going back
The Past is in the Past
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
When I rise like the eye of storms
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
That simple girl is gone
Here I stand, In the light of time
Let the gore rage on!
The blood never bothered me anyway
The Moon glows white on the Mountain tonight
Not a cultist to be seen
A city of isolation, and it looks right
On the seen
The wind is howling
Like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep her in,
Goldrin knows I've tried
Don't let them live,
Don't let them scream,
Be the good wolf you always have to be
Reveal, don't seal.
Don't let them show
Well now they know
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
Can't force us back anymore
Let 'em go
Let 'em go
Turn away and face the floor
I don't care
What they're going to say
Let the gore rage on
The blood never bothered me anyway
It's funny how some killing
Makes everything feel right
And the fear that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all

To test the limits and break through
No Right, No Wrong, No rules for me

Let It Go
The air was cold like the freshly fallen snow. The wars had been taxing both mentally and physically. Sheikaris and Alex lead the groups to meet the enemies daily, but one day Rima vanished. Even with the power of the crystals combined, they could not find her, or rather, she did not want to be found.
Breathing raggedly as she scaled the snowy slopes of Storm Peaks, Rima's fingers were turning dark blue from the bruising and frostbite. Barely finding a perch to pull herself up onto, dropped her bag of supplies on the cliff face, shivering against the howling wind.
Moros came to her, speaking quietly, "You can't keep this up, you'll freeze! Then what use will you be to me?"
"Can it." She makes a small fire, huddling for the time being.
"This is ridiculous, Rima." Moros scolds.
She moves to check her water canister, hearing the icy sloshing of half frozen liquid, she takes the cap off to take a swig before putting it away. As she holds a hand up over her eyes, she peers at the horizon, frowning when she saw the dragon-flyers coming in on her position.
"Shit we gotta move." Rima grabs her things, stamping out the fire hurriedly.
She gasps as one of them throws their blade, getting a clean cut on her leg and causing her to fall. Carefully hovering around the cliff, the flyers roar.
"You know what to do." Moros says as the wound heals on its own and Rima stands.
She grips her blades, only to be stopped by one of the dragons clawing the cliff, causing it to begin cracking and crumbling.
"Oh you son of a-" She feels the rocks slip from out from under her and cause her to go sailing through the air.
As she tries to maneuver herself through the air, she barely dodges the blades being thrown past her and the flames of the damned dragons.
Hearing Moros in her head, "Let me take control. Let the crystal course through you. Let it go."
Rima closes her eyes tightly, feeling the sparking in her blood that caused her so much pain previously. Her eyes snap open, bright red, as the frozen ocean and the sharp rocks comes into sight, cracking with sick sounds of breaking bones and appearing in a splatter of blood were wings of bone and muscle sinew. Spreading them quickly as her elbows pop and blades from bones appear on her upper arms, tearing through the fabric of her suit, she manages to yank herself upwards into the air. She meets the elevation that the dragon-riders were hovering at, she latches onto one of the dragons as her hands glow black, causing the dragon's life to perish and send it plummeting before hopping to the next. Rinse and Repeat.
She allows Moros to take control as she remains in the air. Moros moves her to just outside Bouldercrag's Refuge. She lands in the powdery snow as her body begins returning her skeletal structure and muscles back into place, sealing the wounds but leaving the scars and tears in her clothes. She feels her vision blur as she saw a familiar metal figure running towards her.
"Rima!"

The Squichi Files: How New Avalon's Forge Was (Really) Decimated
Squichi Mechablade cleared her throat and stood, shuffling to the front
of the circle as it became her turn to share a story with the group,
consisting of Lucinda, Alexxia, Sheikaris, Vera, Wispers, and a few
others. The Gargantuan Incendiary Retribution bot, GIR, clanked along
behind her, his torso rotating suddenly to light up the bushes behind
them at a menacing sound that could only be a ninja assassin threatening
the life of his programmed object of defense, his massive machine-gun
arms firing round after round at the ferocious fiend! ...A squirrel
squeaked its last breath, keeling over onto the grass. GIR turned back
around, satisfied that the threat was gone as his barrels smoked with
pride. His job... never done.
Squichi barely seemed to notice the horrified stares of the rest of the people, or the gunfire... it was almost like it happened too regularly to pay attention to anymore. She brushed herself up, readying her tale.
"Well! my story begins with a gnome in a workshop. Please keep in mind that this character is NOT to be confused with yours truly, the one and only, majorly mighty, ginormously genius Squichi Mechablade!"
"She shared this shop with her counterpart and fellow master of engineering, though this one, a draenei, specialized in gnomish engineering, while the gnome specialized in goblin engineering! ...Go figure."
"...Again, the draenei is NOT to be confused with the ever-wonderful... if a bit addled... Miss Jadearra of Echoes of Virtue!"
Already, she saw a few looks turn from pleasantly confused to suspicious. She continued on, regardless:
"Anyway, one day, the gnome and her trusty battle-bot came across a washed-up lump of metal in the sand of the beach off of New Avalon while working tirelessly on the gyrocopter waiters that were once requested of her!"
"The battle-bot went on the alert, though the gnome - ever curious and explorative! - went to have a closer look. Digging the large thing out of the ground, she found it to be an unused seaforium bomb! She looked it over, fascinated as to how the thing had survived the ocean and corrosion."
"She strapped it to her ever-bumbling-but-faithful mechawyvern, who flew it - with great strain to his poor engines! - back to the workshop. The gnome set the bomb in the forge building, away from the tent where her mechs and gyros were, like a smart gnome, to prepare to disarm and cut the thing open, and she headed back to said tent to retrieve her tools!"
"While she was gone, apparently her counterpart walked in, a couple of missiles she'd pilfered from a nearby Horde armory under her arms. She set them down on a conveniently-located, if round and cylindrical, table right next to the forge!"
"As the gnome stepped back into the forge after retrieving her tools, there stood her friend, hammering away with great... vigor... on the missiles she'd procured. 'They're disarmed!' the draenei chirped to the gnome, but it was not the small missiles that brought concern..."
"A rather large, heavy, and draenei-death-knight-muscle-powered swing missed the missiles... and hit the surface of the bomb. The gnome's hopes for the thing to be inactive or a dud were... false, to say the least."
"Both gnome and draenei went flying, and were both lucky to have been wearing plate mail! ...The draenei was also lucky to have already been dead, for the blast sent her right into the water, where she promptly sank, and had to trudge out of the water along the bottom of the sea."
"The gnome managed to barely miss the gigantic lumber mill sawblade, but made a nice crater in the floor behind it."
"...And that's how the New Avalon forge got destroyed and the lumber mill floor was damaged!"
The tiny gnome faltered a bit as the druid, Lucinda, was fixating an eye on her accusingly. She continued, the confidence drained significantly from her voice:
"...And I might wish to remind you that neither character is in any way to be confused with myself or Jade! ...In fact, we were both busy that day! ...Golfing, as it were! Yes! Now... ah... I will... be seated now... I know nothing more than that... not their names... or their company... or their appearances... or their current locations..."
Squichi scurried back to her seat rather quickly, twiddling her thumbs amidst the glares of the crowd. The only one laughing appeared to be Wispers as GIR let Hell loose upon another poor critter in the distant trees, forcing it to feel his fearsome fury with fiery destruction.

Heart of the Battle
It had been years since the final battle, the one everyone had dreaded, but only few were lost. Something worse had been stirring in the last several years, a new threat. They called themselves the darkness. Now a new fate would come, to those caught in between. In the last several years Alex and Sheik had been married and had a strong son and a beautiful daughter. Along side them and their united guilds were Company of Blades, now led by Jabbles daughter who was best friends with the twins Klarese had; Along with Mindee and Panelle's daughter, Aurora, the new children began training and it was found that they had developed similar powers to their parents. And what of Rima and Nazard? They had disappeared during the final battle with Rima heavily wounded. Gidrian had fallen to allow their escape. A hundred years after the final war...
"Again." Sheikaris shouts to his children as they were going through their daily training routine.
"A hundred strikes?" His son, Liam, asked with sweat beading on his brow.
"Three hundred." Sheik says as he hands Alex her tea.
"Three hundred?!" Their daughter, Emma, asks in exasperation, breathing harshly.
"How do ye expect to get bettah if you don't practice, dear?" Alex laughs quietly, sipping her tea with her pinkie up.
"But moooom." The teenager girl whines loudly, causing her brother to laugh.
"Don't 'but mom' me, Emmarathine." Alex says in that motherly tone that all mothers gain.
"Ugh!" Emma stomps her foot on the ground as she strikes at the training dummy, causing it to explode into splinters.
"Excessive." The older brother says, lifting his plate mask up once the wood had stopped falling from the sky.
"Emma! Liam!" A voice calls from the past the apple orchard.
"They're back here, Aurora!" Sheik calls before turning to his children, beaming with pride, "Alright alright, I suppose we can let you two off the hook for now."
Wandering in through the gate was a small gnome girl, the area around her was both cold and hot. The two half elf siblings run over to meet with their friend but pause when they see a small elf with her.
Carefully standing up, Alex rested a hand over her pregnant belly, absentmindedly rubbing it as she goes to look at the new comers.
"So who's your friend, dear?" Alex asks with a curious brow, Sheik staying by her side.
"She won't tell me your name, just said that her mother spoke of you guys and my moms." Aurora says calmly.
"Well who was her mother?" Sheik seemed curious, ignoring the bad feeling he felt in his gut.
The elf girl's voice was soft and coarse, "Rima Darkmane."
Sheik and Alex look at each other, alarm rising before Sheik steps forward, "You're Rima's daughter? Where is she? How is she?"
"Fine.. I thought I would find her friends since she was missing everyone... My brothers and sister would've come but they were busy with training under the order.." The elf says weakly.
Sheik walked forward, "Where is she?"
"She is hidden in the mountains... Near Avalon and Seradane... I wouldn't go there yet... Her soul is lost." The elf girl says quietly.
"Wot of her mate, Nazard?" Alex asks quietly, lightly rubbing her belly.
"Gone... Long gone... Some strange man is making her lost... Nazard told me so..." The girl's eyes seemed void of sleep and emotions.
"If Nazard is gone... Then how has he..." Liam trails off.
The girl covers her ears as tears begin to form, "They keep talking, the shadows, they never stop talking."
Sheikaris's eyes grow wide, "You inherited Rima's crystal..."
Emma and Liam quickly step back, Aurora moves away. They had been told the stories. They knew about the crystal wars and all the souls lost to Rima's crystal when she turned dark.
Alex quickly speaks up, "You have to remember, dear, that a child can only inherit ONE trait. She obviously had the Whispering Death."
The group relaxes, all except Sheik.
He quickly whispers to Alex, "The girl said she had siblings... High chance one of them has -that- trait."
Alex elbows him in the side quickly. Sheik makes a face, ignoring the urge to growl.
"Well, come inside dear." Alex waves the girl towards the house.
They wander into the two story farm house. Sheikaris carefully helps Alex sit on the couch before going to make more tea.
The elf tilts her head, "This place... So big."
"Again." Sheikaris shouts to his children as they were going through their daily training routine.
"A hundred strikes?" His son, Liam, asked with sweat beading on his brow.
"Three hundred." Sheik says as he hands Alex her tea.
"Three hundred?!" Their daughter, Emma, asks in exasperation, breathing harshly.
"How do ye expect to get bettah if you don't practice, dear?" Alex laughs quietly, sipping her tea with her pinkie up.

"She is hidden in the mountains... Near Avalon and Seradane... I wouldn't go there yet... Her soul is lost." The elf girl says quietly.
"Wot of her mate, Nazard?" Alex asks quietly, lightly rubbing her belly.
"Gone... Long gone... Some strange man is making her lost... Nazard told me so..." The girl's eyes seemed void of sleep and emotions.
"If Nazard is gone... Then how has he..." Liam trails off.
The girl covers her ears as tears begin to form, "They keep talking, the shadows, they never stop talking."
Sheikaris's eyes grow wide, "You inherited Rima's crystal..."
Emma and Liam quickly step back, Aurora moves away. They had been told the stories. They knew about the crystal wars and all the souls lost to Rima's crystal when she turned dark.
Alex quickly speaks up, "You have to remember, dear, that a child can only inherit ONE trait. She obviously had the Whispering Death."
The group relaxes, all except Sheik.
He quickly whispers to Alex, "The girl said she had siblings... High chance one of them has -that- trait."
Alex elbows him in the side quickly. Sheik makes a face, ignoring the urge to growl.
"Well, come inside dear." Alex waves the girl towards the house.
They wander into the two story farm house. Sheikaris carefully helps Alex sit on the couch before going to make more tea.
The elf tilts her head, "This place... So big."

Seeing Stars
Silver eyes held swirls of gold and red. Blue hair was a mess. Face was expressionless. Basically, this elf looked a hot mess minus the hot. In his arms slept an equally distraught moon kin hatchling. The two rocked back and forth. He heard someone step on board.
Rima, in a dress all pretty and un-Rima like, gently made her way on deck. "Alex? Hey, can we talk?" She called out to the back of the ship. Hearing no response she made her way through the ship. She walked into the captain's quarters and stopped. "Oh god I'm not looking!" She saw Sheik on the bed and just naturally assumed…He shrugged and made a rather nonchalant noise like whatever. "Um…? that sounds disappointing." She peeked and saw Sheik alone.
Sheikaris was staring at a wall. His eyes shifted sideways to Look at his student. One of the shrinking number of people he actually had left. He set Luna in her crib. He motioned for Rima to go into the cabin or outside. As soon as she got there she crossed her arms and stared. Sheikaris's face was unmoving.
"You look like shit." Rima, right to the point.
Sheikaris grumbled at her. He was not in the mood. He stood against a wall, leaned his head back, closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It was unsteady. He sighed. was that a tear? Rima's joking attitude changed to concerns. Her face softened and she held a hand out to Sheik in comfort.
"Hey…is everything cool? Where's Alex?"
Sheik snapped. He grabbed her arm, spun it around her head and held Rima to him with her back against him and her arm choking herself. She struggled for a moment and lifted her leg behind her to kick him in the jewels, because he wasn't wearing armor. He let go of her in a cringe of pain as he saw stars. She decked him in the jaw. He grabbed her jaw and spun her around him. She landed on her back with a thud atop one of the tables in the cabin.
"Hey big brother…calm the fuck down!" She snapped at him, her eyes growing dark. This wasn't a training thing.
"She's gone. someone stole her from me. I will have vengeance." He roared to her.
"I think you just need to get laid again, Sheik. Yeesh." She grinned jokingly.
He pulled Rima to him, Held her down with one hand on her stomach the other gently grabbing her throat. He walked between her legs and put his hips against the table. His eyes were Gold and Red. His wolf spirit awake and his host sleep deprived and all tears possible had been shed from his eyes.
Rima wrapped her legs around him and twisted him around enough to wiggle him off awkwardly. He backed up enough that she could kick him. She brought both of her feet to her knees and slammed them into his chest. She stumbled backwards but his eyes flashed in retaliation.
"Woah! Hey! Sheik! Man! I didn't take her! Don't take this shit out on me! AAH"
Sheik pummeled her to the ground. A chair in the way shattered under their combined weight. His hip rested precariously between her legs and just below her hips. She tried to wiggle out of her uncomfortable position. He held her down now. His hip pinning her, his legs straddled her and kept them together, one hand held her shoulder down and the other, again, was on her throat. He was inches from her face. Breathing into her. His eyes gazed downward, She was in a robe. he had just now noticed, always the slow one with those things.
"Get up! What the fuck, Sheik!" She tried to push him off. He wiggled his hip into her and lay more of his weight onto of her to keep her down. She blinked and felt a little blood and heat rushing to places it shouldn't. Not with Sheik. She was confused. Sheikaris leaned closer into her with a low primal growl.
Then, from the cabin's door way a ball of feathers came running. "Mama! Mama! Ma…" Luna was expecting her mother. The sexual primal tension and noise for some reason reminded her of Alex and Sheik. She did not find Alex instead she found Rima. She found Rima in a very interesting position.
Sheik blinked and shook his head. His heat had risen too and he stood embarrassed. "Luna!" He ran to pick up the now confused and upset bird. He grabbed her but she threw rather cranky handful of stars at Rima and Sheik. Rima pawed at her face.
"Ugh! Damn bird!" she growled.
Sheikaris turned back in a snap. "Shut it, Rima!" His eyes were cranky again.
"Ugh, old cranky fart!" She left and stuck her tongue out at him.
Sheikaris returned to his chair as he had before she showed up. Gold eyes with red while he rocked the moonkin.
Rima, in a dress all pretty and un-Rima like, gently made her way on deck. "Alex? Hey, can we talk?" She called out to the back of the ship. Hearing no response she made her way through the ship.
