The Mage's Knight in Cold Armor: Apprentice to The Betrayer

I had let Varian know that I was ready to go to Stormwind to reunite with my son and I was already a nervous wreck due to seeing the ghost of Illidan in that room! But I had to keep my composure as I didn't want to have a mental breakdown in front of my son who I have not seen for 5 years. A day never went by when I didn't think of him. The letters Norwell had given me to observe the life of my son, I feel all went to waste had I known then that he would betray me. When me and Varian went through a portal I conjured, we arrived at the Mage Quarters. Oh the memories I had here! As soon as I arrived, everyone just stared at me. I don't blame them though, I did ally myself with Illidan only because I knew of the true threat unlike these clueless buffoons! There was one mage with blonde hair and brown eyes with a slim build who was running up to Varian and me and immediately, I recognised her so I partially hid behind Varian since he was taller and buffer than me.

"Varian, you've returned!" The mage called out then she looked at me with a slightly shocked expression. "And you've brought Alyssana. I'm surprised she's not in chains but my guess is she's been found innocent?"

"Nice to see you again too, Jaina." I monotonously greeted her.

"Likewise!"

"I'm sure you two will get along just great!" Varian sarcastically chuckled. "In all seriousness, Jaina, you look as if something is wrong. Is there?"

"Yes, but I think it's best if we had a talk in the keep." She reckoned. "Just you and me, Varian."

"Alyssana can come with us since you two have some catching up to do!" Varian put in loudly, cutting off Jaina.

Yeah, me and Jaina aren't exactly on good terms. As far as I know, when I was studying, she failed me on a test that I worked so hard on! I did everything by the book, she just wasn't being fair that I was that good at Frost magic from when I was only 13! Like how long did it take her to master Frost magic I wonder? Maybe during the forming of the New Horde? I was only 10 at that time. Now 10 years later, I already mastered all three types of magic, I have a kid and another one on the way, the father of my incoming child is dead and here I am, walking next to the woman that failed my Frost magic test due to bloody jealousy! But, I can't fuss over it right now, I have a son that's waiting for me to meet him and he's more important than that ice witch bitch! As we were making our way through Stormwind, I kept getting a lot of weird looks from the guards and the residents. I'm pretty sure word got around quick that I am free of any charges against me and not a lot of people are happy about it. I don't have time to care about what people think about me neither do I even care! Once we made it to Stormwind Keep, we went to a garden area where there was a place to sit and talk. I sat next to Varian because yet again, I don't want to be anywhere too close to Jaina although regardless, I can tell this conversation's gonna get...awkward.

"So Varian..." Jaina began. "How did you reach an innocent verdict with Alyssana?"

I gave her a 'really' look and I could hear Varian was not too happy about her question as he made a huge sigh through his nose.

"I reviewed the evidence and it proved she was with Illidan unintentionally and her ex-husband was a part of the Cult of the Damned." Varian put simply. "Now, why did you want to see me?"

"Not long ago, I felt something within my soul awaken. As if someone I knew a long time ago has come back alive." Jaina replied.

"Are you certain?" Varian questioned the mage.

"Yes." She answered. "This feeling however, I don't think I can stomach it. It's almost as if I'm being heavily weighed down."

Now I know I had beef with Jaina, but that didn't mean I should be a heartless wench and not step in and help her figure it out!
