sometimes you can't make it

Who: Alexstrasza, Krasus/Korialstrasz, and the Redsworn
What: Successful retreat into the Ruby Sanctum
Where: Ruby Sanctum
When: After a long, grueling battle near the borders of Suramar
Warnings: Please PM the mods if any warnings are needed

[The Ruby Sanctum is a flurry of activity. This becomes clear within two seconds of stepping through the portal. The wounded are guided over to a grassy clearing surrounded by saplings and adolescent trees, bade to lay down and receive healing from other dragonkin. Some of the trees are years old, while a few look to have shot up recently. If you watch, vines engulf one fallen warrior; the body sinks into the ground, and a tiny sapling appears in its place.

Despite the war going on outside, the sanctum is less of a cavern and more like a self-contained dimension. Ample sunlight drifts down through scarlet leaves, which are occasionally home to the crimson scales of a whelpling. There is life everywhere: insects on twigs, birds chirping overhead, flowers at your feet. Dragon eggs lay nestled in the nooks and crannies offered by the tranquil forest. There is a decently-sized spring filled with fresh, pure water, as well as some small rocky outcroppings to sleep in. It's warm and comfortable enough to rest out in the open, too.

The cloaked and ever-mysterious Krasus stands watching the dispersing redsworn, his back against the massive oak in the center of the sanctum.

Occasionally, one may glimpse a beautiful red-haired woman with copper skin winding through the copse.]

They are of interest to me. [ As are any that offer to help her children and vice versa. If she were to allow them to fight alongside these champions, she must get to know them herself. ] Fear not, I will be mindful of your mission.

[ Meaning she won't do anything to endanger the work of the Dragon Mages. ]

May I join you after I have finished here? [ She realizes only after she's said it how forward it may come, dipping her head apologetically. ]

Thank you.

[Her forwardness only serves to make him smile. It's the first smile he's given in weeks, small and slight but warm. And for her alone.]

I would not turn you away.

[ The small gesture lifts her own spirits though it doesn't show. Not now when she has an appearance to put on for their guests. ]

Rest for now, Krasus.
