Welcome to the City of Artists. [OPEN]

[theshadowkissed]

Who: Greensworn and you
What: Befriending Derenaar
Where: Derenaar and surrounding areas
When: July 12-20
Warnings: bad Darnassian grammar, possible demon killings

[OOC: This post is for any and all interaction with Derenaar and the Greensworn helping the elves from scouring demons to rearranging the greenery to other daily quests up to and including showing other Dragonsworn around. Please remember to add your tag to the post.]


[When the Greensworn arrived at Derenaar, they weren't entirely sure what to expect. Were these elves going to be like the Sin'thalas elves and wish their destruction because of some grudge against the dragons? Or would they be more like the elves of Silverglen Retreat, willing to allow them access and trade but stay distant? What they hadn't expected was - after a lengthy conversation in Darnassian between Rose Hathaway and the elven leaders of Derenaar - to be welcomed in with open arms to the city.

With it being better than initially expected, the Greensworn set about proving themselves by helping out in Derenaar. It seemed a bag of demon heads and a few Kaldorei druids that still honored the Green Flight went a long way.]

Contrary to popular belief, walking in the woods is a learned skill.

[But she still managed. Being graceful had its benefits.]

Where I come from, there wasn't a single tree in sight.

[theshadowkissed]

It is? [Says the dhampir that mostly grew up in Montana.]

I don't think I could stand places without trees.

[hectorcantgofast]

In the opposite, I won't say that I can't stand places with trees but I'm certainly not fond of them. I much prefer to have grass under my feet and the sky over my head.

[theshadowkissed]

I don't think you're going to find places like that here. Pretty sure the maps of this land show we've got thick forest, mountains and sand.

[hectorcantgofast]

Exactly. That's why I'm working on trying to pick up certain skills as fast as I can.

[theshadowkissed]

I can take you through my wilderness survival course from the Academy if you want? I'm from a heavily forested place and it was a daily exercise for all novices.

[hectorcantgofast]

Thanks for the offer but I do know how to survive. It's just the environment I need to get used to.

[theshadowkissed]

There's more to one of those classes than the basics of survival. So, can you tell me what lichen on the side of a tree tells you?

[hectorcantgofast]

It tells you what direction north is, right?

[theshadowkissed]

That's right. So how do you know that if you've never been around trees enough to know how to walk through the woods without sounding like an elephant?

[hectorcantgofast]

Because...the same thing happens to rocks.

[theshadowkissed]

[Okay, so Lyn had a point.]

Anyways, how about you softly whisper to the underbrush, asking it to make way for you? You might find yourself a bit more comfortable then.

[hectorcantgofast]

I think you're going to have to explain that one to me.
