Stories from the Moonlit Burrow - Day 3

by Tellea

Day 3
 
Today is the third day since I was supposed to finish the Trials of a Night Warrior and the fifth day since my life was turned upside down ...
 
I found some old parchment as I was cleaning up a space to call my own and so I have decided to scribe my journey so far. My scribblings will surely never amount to the epics written about the greatest of my people, but I suppose they will help me make sense of all that is happening in the hope that I do not lose my mind…
 
I thought I had my life planned out. I would answer the call of the Night Warrior and serve my people well. I had imagined every intricacy of this journey, dreamt how my story would unfold as I followed in the footsteps of those who came before me. Never did I imagine my world would unravel the way it did.
 
I guess that is the naivety of being so young, I am only 274 after all.
 
My journey began with the request of a Void elf, Kayenier Sinderveil, High Priestess of the Jade Serpent and a chance encounter with a very peculiar individual who, quite literally, stumbled into my life. This fox (or Vulpera as he likes to correct me) is called Lore and together, along with Kayenier, they have made very unlikely (yet deadly) company.
 
Although a slightly dysfunctional trio we worked well together, defeating both Aku’Mai and one of The Nine Brothers Kayenier had been searching for. However, in doing so I have strayed from my path, bringing me back to the sorry state I now find myself in.
 
Kayenier, along with her husband, have left Lore and I to finish their search for the rest of The Nine Brothers. I don’t know how long we will be here but hopefully I will be able to get some clarity and answers from Elune about where my new path is taking me.
