Who: Adrasteius
Broadcast: All
Action: Marsiva
When: Oct 19
[It's been a few weeks since Archimonde's downfall. Since the collapse of the Iron Horde. It was a good moment, hard-won, but Adrasteius hasn't felt celebratory. The battle had ended in triumph, yes, but also a warning. Something is coming. Something that keeps Adrasteius from sleep, that keeps him up late fiddling with wards, praying to the Light. Keeps him staring at the sky with unease threading through all of his brittle bones.
But all living things must sleep, eventually, and he's no exception.
When he wakes up, he expects to see his wife; possibly some children, crept in after nightmares. Instead, he's alone. The room is stark, chilly, sterile.
Familiar.]
Oh, for the Light's sake.
[He rolls over, groaning. This again. Lying flat on his belly, but with his face turned upwards, he addresses the camera.]
Bal'a dash, everybody. If we haven't spoken, I'm Adrasteius. If we have--
[He sits up, albeit with obvious effort. It's hard to be old, even for an elf.]
--nice to see you again. Probably.
[Adrasteius runs a hand through his feathery blonde hair.]
What did I miss?

[ Nodding politely. ] But perhaps you are not so... [ hmmmmmmmm :|a ] eager to kill dragons?
no subject
[He pans the video over his scrawny little body.]
I don't know that I could be accused of grace, either. Or dragon-killing. I'm not really about killing.

[ unfortunately he brought himself back to life by consuming a person it was all complicated and really the guy maybe deserved it for being such of a dick but still STILL ]
It is not done attempting to destroy the world.

[ She does not sound incredibly concerned though; Warriors of Light will generally be fine on their own. ]
And I suppose...be entertaining. And go...home? [ The skepticism is real ]

no subject
[ what's that ]
I hope so. I miss my husband.
no subject
[He sighs, running a hand through his hair. He's being a little rude, he knows, but all the talk of home makes him distressed.]
Yeah. I've got a wife, kids.
no subject
[ Nodding! She doesn't seem to mind; she has the look of someone who has great patience with rude people from personal experience. ]
I am not sure if we could have...children? [ She laughs ] But I still miss him. Perhaps he will come here.
no subject
Besides, kids are a much better subject.]
Four kids. One of'em's running around here. What's stopping the two of you?
no subject
[ How does one explain that their marriage was already taboo by being the unholy union of two completely different races?? Probably by saying just that... ]
We are not the same race?
no subject
Yeah, and?

I am not sure if it can be done in all honesty?

[ Thoughtfully, actually ] The practices of the Miqo'te are much different than my people. First off, we would not make anyone leave the home at a young age.
no subject
[Hmm. He frowns.]
How young?
