Letter 002 // why you fight [video]

[obliterating]

[Have a video feed. He looks a little unsure for a moment, but nods.]

I'm looking for a metalworker. Someone who would be able to make a setting for a stone. And, well, I need a blue stone, as well. A blue piece of glass would work just as well, I suppose. If anyone knows what shops I might be able to find something like that, I'd be grateful.

[And now, for something else.]

I'm not going to talk about what happened or why or what we could have or should have done. Instead, I want to offer something for moving forward.

I'm a Death Knight...many of you probably don't know what that means. The best answer is that it means I know how to use a sword. I have a place in the Outlands, and for those that would like to join me on the hike there, I can offer weapons training.  You can bring your own weapons, or I can provide practice blades.

I don't expect any payment or anything for it, I just hope that it might help you be ready to defend yourself in case something like that happens again.

((OOC: metal and stone bits are spoken for, but feel free to have your character tell him where he could find it. AND EVERYONE SHOULD COME GET SWORD TRAINING. EVERYONE.))

I've got a few blue gems. [ "a few", ashraf you hoard them like a crazy old woman with cats ] I could be convinced to part with one, if it fits what you're looking for.

private, text, anonymous.

[bumbles]

I can work metal and glass with magic. I'm not trained in metalwork, per se, but if no one more qualified comes forward, I'd be glad to help.

My name is Atlas. My apologies for replying anonymously, but it's necessary.

( secret identities, and that whole shebang. )

[He thinks for a second.]

Well, I suppose that depends on the size of it. What would you want in return?

[obliterating]

Thank you for the offer, Atlas.

How will I contact you, if I need to?

[heirwithouthope]

How large of a setting do you require for this stone?

[audio] omg i am like :D!

[obliterating]

Roughly a finger's width across, and it would need to be able to be strung on a chain around the neck.

[hornedomen]

A Death Knight?

[That grabbed his attention the most. There was pause as he mulled a few things over, then he switched to video.]

Would you help me, please? It's about Koltira, he's a Death Knight, too.

[Video]

[obliterating]

Yes? What is it?

[Oh no was something wrong? D: D: D: ]

[hornedomen]

His sword is different; I think it might be something bad. It's covered in darkness and I think it's growing. I don't know what it is. Do you know?

[obliterating]

[ ...oh. ]

That's probably not something to worry about. His sword is different- it's a Runeblade.

[hornedomen]

I don't mean it like that. Byfrost looks different from before. This darkness is different.

[obliterating]

[Okay that was a bit worrying.]

When did you last see him?

[hornedomen]

Before we went to fight on Elmer's world. It was like that months ago and now it looks bigger.

Can you help him?

[obliterating]

I'll do what I can.

[hornedomen]

[He sighed, feeling relieved.]

I'm glad. Thank you, sir.

I'm sure you'll get a lot of people eager to learn swordcraft.

I could make you any of that stuff. I guess you already got folks doing the metalwork, but in the future if you ever need somethin' like that done in, say, two seconds, I'm your girl!

As for the stone, you supply the blue glass, I can make that for you in a second, too. Of course, you're on your own with the blue part. I can't exactly help you find that, heh.

[highhealplz]

How about a drink?

[obliterating]

I can manage that. When do you want to meet?

Video

[obliterating]

I hope those that need to learn come to me. The offer is open to you, as well, but I don't know if you're interested.

[obliterating]

I'll keep that in mind. Thank you.

[barefootbender]

You makin' jewelry or somethin', old man?

["old man" based off that Death Knight voice. she can't actually see him, much less tell how old he is.]

[obliterating]

A necklace. A replica of one, actually.

[barefootbender]

Something you lost? Or... is it for a ladyfriend?

video;

[obliterating]

Wh-

No, no, nothing like that.

[He chuckles.]

It was one that belonged to my father. My sister has it now, back home. I wanted something to remind me of her.
