I [video]

[It's extremely obvious that someone who isn't used to this kind of technology has been unleashed upon the tablet. And this is the most successful attempt. At least Varian has managed to find the text function.]

i will not be taking part in any of your games do you hear me? if you think i will be rolling over and just accepting that you are taking a man hostage in the most dire of times then you are thinking wrong. i do not care what your reasoning in i have things that require being taken care of back in stormwind

how dare you, that you have even attempted this. you wILL SEND ME BACK RIGHT NOW. DEATHWING'S ARMIES ARE ON THE MARCH UPON THE WORLD AND YOU HAND ME SOME KEY AND TELL ME TO GO LIVE IN A HOUSE? I WILL NOT TAKE THIS SITTING DOWN I WILL SPEAK TO YOUR LEADER AND YOU WILL SEND ME BACK. I DO NOT CARE HOW THIS HAPPENED I ONLY CARE THAT YOU WILL FIX THIS AND FIX IT RIGHT NOW. EVEN THis device is some gnomish contraption that is a pain to use. someone had better be reading this. who's in charge? where are they?

You are clearly not aware of human culture. Shouting is perceived as capslock. You were typing in capslock. Ergo, it is to be interpreted as shouting.

You may be surprised that an indirect approach is best.

What can you do?

[ Ah, so her king has arrived. There's a part of her that wants to stand up and defend her friendship with Thrall (to remain sitting at his side no matter what), but Jaina has always found herself bound to the duty of the Alliance. ]

Deathwing?

[ Clearly that's more important than saying something like "IT'S ME, JAINA PROUDMOORE" ]

The destroyer. Black dragonflight Aspect.

[If Varian had any idea Jaina was all for sitting on Thrall's side he'd be flipping every table in this place, and then the chairs for good measure.]

[ But can he flip the chairs the orc and sorceress are perched on? That's the real question here. ]

When I left the world of Azeroth behind, there was no thread from that Aspect.

What all has transpired?

[Challenge accepted.

Either way, Varian's somewhat exasperated that someone doesn't know what's going on. It's not like you can miss the chunks of Stormwind missing.]

Deathwing decided he wants to destroy the entire world. It is falling apart at the very seams. A lot of places have been either damaged or lost.

[No, seriously, how do you not know this?]

[ It's called server lag, Varian. ]

What is this madness?

Is all of this is taking place while the battle rages on in Northrend?

[Has the best connection, never gets it unless he's kidnapped by a Prestor. Then it's a few years lag.]

Exactly that.

And the battle of Northrend has passed already.

[ Yeah how was that vacation? Jaina kept everything running smoothly so why can't she just hang out with her orc BFF? ]

In such a short time?

Please tell me that we were victorious against the might of the Lich King.

[Actually Bolvar did, you just gave Katrina Prestor dirty looks all the time as she smooched with the other Varian. Mhmmm.]

Tirion Fordring was successful in his fight against the Lich King. Arthas is dead and no longer a threat to Azeroth.

[ Those dirty looks took a lot out of her. Do you know how hard it is to look away from reading? ]

Dead?

So there was no redemption to be found, was there?

[ That might give her away, huh. ] That news warms my heart in this desperate place.

Thank you for bringing this information to me.

[Impressive it even made you look up from those books.]

There was none left for him. He also took the life of Bolvar Fordragon during the fight along with countless others.

How long have you been here, Jaina?

His life as well?

[ How many good men must Azeroth lose before there can ever be peace? The news hits her hard. So much so that it takes her a few minutes to recompose herself. Even though it was just text, there was a certain value placed on words and Jaina was not about to taint them with her feelings. ]

Since the beginning of the month October.

Traveler--[ Because she doesn't know just who it is she addresses just yet. ]--May we meet to discuss these events in person?

His life as well.

[Doesn't like talking about Bolvar okay?! Varian's giving his netbook a shake though, trying to figure out where the dammed video button is again ~~he found it fine to sneer at Thrall with~~. Jaina's being silly again.

Gives up after five minutes. Stupid piece of gnomish talbuk dung.]

Time and place.

[ She's not worth her king's sneers... ]

It would not be wise to travel too far out with the monsters are they are.

Unless you are fit for battle and would not mind joining me out here.

[He doesn't sneer at women. Unless it's Onyxia. She has a special place on his list of assholes who need to die horribly a lot of times.

He's still a bit irked he can't find the video button though. The fit for battle comment does get a smirk out of Varian., however.]

I am sure I will be fine for battle. Just outside?

If you know of my name, then I am certain you can find me easily enough.

[ See she's the one directing the hail and fire on all fiends that draw near. No one will lay harm on this sanctuary so long as she has any say in it. ]

You will probably see me before I see you.

[No joke since he's so tall. It doesn't take long before Varian is headed outside. The only things he had on him were armor and Shalamayne, so nothing needed gathered up. And despite the sheer shit that was going on, the King of Stormwind still cut a regal, if not imposing, figure as he looked around.

And it sure didn't take long to spot where the spells were coming from, beelining over to give the blonde nothing more than a nod.]

Jaina. Keeping busy as usual.

[ If his intention was to snatch away her concentration, then his quest was complete. Fumbling forward a bit, she's quick to regain her composure and make her way towards her king. ]

I was--[ Cutting herself off right there. No need to make any excuses. ] My apologies for having not met with you sooner. There were a number of those from Azeroth who arrived here with the latest transports and I found myself tending to their needs.

[ They were all Horde for the record. ]

[Mission successful. Except not. Varian's keeping half an eye on the surroundings, ready to jump anything that gets too close. Considering Jaina's a mage though, like all good ranged she's not on the front lines.]

None needed for now. Those infernal contraptions are the worst for getting a point across. A number of those from Azeroth you say?

[Of course he's curious to know who. Fess up, Jaina.]

[ Probably wasn't a good idea to mention that now that she thinks about it. For the past few days her thoughts have just been focused on the monsters around them, so it's not surprising she messed up with this. Moving to close the distance between the two, she waves her staff a bit as she speaks. ]

Just ordinary travelers who wish to see Azeroth well. That is why we are here now, is it not?

[Hmmm, Varian's pondering that one. Jaina can problem see him working it over in his mind. For now though he's not going to suspect anything, Jaina isn't a malicious person at heart so it's fine.

For now.]

I see. I hope there aren't many of them. Azeroth needs everyone on hand to deal with Deathwing.

[Varian pauses, giving Jaina a curious look.]

How do you not know of Deathwing?

Those events must have started after I left. [ Even if she's only been here for a little under a month at that, she fears what is happening to Azeroth without her. ] Before my arrival, I was at the dread citadel in Northrend.

[ Using the staff to support her tired body, she'll give him a smile despite that. ]

It seems time must continue to flow in our worlds even when we are apart. It was hopeless to believe otherwise.

That was.....that was some time ago, Jaina.

[The worst is upon them and there's no smile back for Jaina. Time moves without them being back home, and if what Jaina saying is true, then it moves faster. The idea of leaving Anduin in charge whilst Deathwing rampages is enough to bring Varian out into a legitimate cold sweat. His boy doesn't deserve a wartorn kingdom.]

So it seems. Not the news I was hoping for. It is particularly dire back home. He's making the Lich King look futile.

[ That's a bit too much for her to take in and after days of fighting non-stop against these monsters, she's at her limit. Thrall did insist she should rest more and here she was making her way to the ground as gracefully as she can. Resting on her legs, she nods wearily. ]

That bad, is it? [ How disheartening. ] I had hoped that with Arthas here that Azeroth may be able to rest, but with another threat looming overhead...

[ It's going to be a moment for her to compose herself this time. Do something to kill time, chin boy. ]
