New beginning
Chapter 1
Elks yawned as she stretched out in her small creaking cot in the Gilded Rose. She thought back to the events of yesterday when her and all other Death Knights had been forgiven, if somewhat awkwardly, by their respective races. Although King Varian Wrynn had officially announced their reconciliation she still saw the looks people gave her on the way to the inn, in fact she even swore that the minute Innkeeper Allison had seen her she deliberately made sure Elks got the smallest most uncomfortable bed at the inn.
As she slowly slipped on her armour, as it was the only clothing she had, Elks wondered what she could possibly do today, whether to relax or perhaps try to earn some of her respect among the people. In the end Elks decided to go and have some breakfast downstairs.
After a breakfast consisting of stale bread and fruit Elks came to the conclusion that she would take a walk through the city until she could find something to do with herself. As she walked Elks realized that there was no getting away from the accusatory stares people gave her because no matter how hard she tried to blend in her armour made her very obvious. If there was one thing she was sure of it was that these people confused her, back with the other Death Knights they were all the same as each other but here the people all looked at her differently, some looked at her with pure hatred and loathing, some with sympathy and some of the men (and more open-minded women) looked at her with lust, but then again that on its own was not surprising at all considering that she was a Night Elf which was fairly uncommon occurrence in the city of Stormwind and despite the fact she was a despised Death Knight Night elves were renowned for their exotic beauty among humans. Elks' dreaded to think what her fellow kin back in Teldrassil thought of her now.
After Elks had reached the harbour and was staring wistfully into the depths of the sea on the stone bank she resolved that she would not simply ask for her trust and honour back, she would earn it through hard work, how? She did not know but one thing she did know was that she would fight, kick, scream, bite, scratch and claw to get her good reputation back.
Hey guys and girls this is just an idea I have been toying with.
I have basically no clue or even a hint of an idea where this will go, where Elks will go. Whether or not she will find love. Whether bad things will happen, as I say, no idea. What would you like to see?
P.S. Elks is indeed a real character I made on WOW and decided to use her for this story (English realm, Runetotem, Alliance. if you are interested.).
