See you during the application round!
♦ So you're new to this world and have just woken up in the Town Square. How do you react? What do you do?
♦ You're lost at sea. Maybe you got separated from your crew. Or perhaps you're on an abandoned island. You need help!
♦ "Pirates off the starboard bow!" It's an enemy ship! Attack!!
♦ You and your crew are hanging out on your ship. Just another day at sea!
♦ "LAND, HO!" Hey look, a new island! How about you go explore it? Tell us what you find!
no subject
Yes. It really is, it seems we won't be finding any storm or an uneasy weather for a good while. The sailing will be smooth.
[Which is very good and appreciated, whatever makes the travel faster and easier until she finds an island where she can stay by herself. She turns to the other, apologetically.]
I'm sorry, did I bother you?
no subject
The others must be happy about the smooth sailing.
[ Her smile widened and she chuckled. ]
Not at all. Please, take a seat. I find it's better to appreciate the weather with others.
no subject
I'm sorry, I appreciate the offer but I prefer to stay here.
[Standing at a safe distance from the other, not too far but not too close either.]
We surely can still appreciate the weather together like this?
[Hopefully.]
no subject
Not a problem. And, of course we can.
[ A pause. ]
I'm Cairistiona Vyeth-Sunstriker, miss, and it's a pleasure to meet you.
no subject
It's a pleasure to meet you as well, I am Elsa...
[Queen of nothing. Elsa of nowhere. There's a second of pause as she realizes that before she smiles and sighs in defeat.]
Just Elsa.
Is this your first time in a ship, Miss Vyeth-Sunstriker?
[It's a complicated name, but Elsa masterfully pronounces it correctly, the same way as the other had said it.]
no subject
Elsa is a very pretty name, if you ask me.
[ A pause and a shake of her head. ]
Please just call me Cairistiona. I've no need for formalities, Elsa. But, no, it isn't. I'm...a soldier of sorts, so traveling by sea is rather common if one wants to get to another continent.
no subject
[She nods calmly and gratefully for the permission to go with her given name.]
All right then, Cairistiona. Did you serve the army of your country?
no subject
[ She giggles after recalling her name before shaking her head. ]
I did, and I still technically do. I'm the Knight-Commander of Stormwind, my kingdom and the capital of the Alliance, one of the two factions around Azeroth, my world. The other is the Horde.
[ Interestingly enough, she doesn't seem to hold any malice in her eyes or voice when she says that word. She doesn't agree with the Alliance-Horde war and thinks Azeroth would be better off without their squabbling. ]
no subject
[Her eyes brighten at the mention of a sister, remembering her own.]
So your world is divided in factions besides kingdoms? Are there no neutral realms that belong to no faction?
no subject
[ Even if two were adopted, she loved her family unconditionally. ]
Yes, and there are. Thank the Light that they're there, otherwise the Alliance and the Horde might not have a third set of eyes in to the problems around Azeroth.
no subject
[And it's just them both. No, it's just Anna now. Anna in Arendelle, but she will be okay, Elsa's sure of it. Even if some of her decisions may worry her a bit, she will be a good queen.]
I thought so, from the way it sounded I imagine that the Alliance and the Horde aren't in the best terms with each other.
