Adaris stood far away from the crowd of people. Everyone was wearing black and stood almost in lines as they watched the casket being carried down to the open grave. He stared at the casket as a priest announced a few words. Adaris couldn't quite make out those words but then again he wasn't listening. He looked over and saw the small gravestone before his eyes. He still couldn't believe it.

Anna Amberfrost was only 32 years old when she passed away. Adaris knew she would die way before him but he never expected her life to end so early. Sometimes, Adaris tried to pretend that she was alive but he still had the image of her pale face, dead, with no life in her eyes, shut, never to open again. The casket was slowly lowered into the grave and everyone looked down in pure sadness. Soon enough the grave was buried and everyone started disperse slowly. Adaris still stood in his place like a relaxed and tranquil tree.

"Elwynn Forest has never looked so green," a small and high voice whispered. Adaris slowly looked down and saw a gnome with a black hood and robes.

"Relia?" Adaris said in surprise. Relia looked up.

"Hello Adaris," Relia whispered making a soft smile.

"Are… aren't you angry with me?" Adaris asked still surprised.

"No Adaris, I support you to the fullest just like I do to Fredrick." Relia answered. Adaris still looked down at her with a surprised expression.

"Look, I want to help both of you the best I can, I just couldn't show it. Do you understand?" Relia asked.

"Yes… I guess I do understand," Adaris slowly looked up toward the newly buried grave.

"Fredrick is just as devastated as you," Relia said.

"I wouldn't be surprised if he was even more devastated than me Relia, his wife cheated around him to love me, but he still forgave her but was heart broken and then he sees his wife dead in the snow from the Scourge attack. I should've stopped loving her as soon as they were engaged. Fredrick will never stop hating me now and I deserve it." Adaris said softly as a tear fell from his cheek.

"You can never stop loving someone even if you try to stop." Relia whispered. Adaris carefully tried to clear his thoughts and wipe off his tears.

"Where will you be?" Adaris asked.

"I'm thinking about opening up a herbalism and alchemy shop in Stormwind, I'm going to have Samson, my trusty void walker to help as well, I think he would make a great employee." Relia said looking up at his face.

"I'll also be helping Fredrick with the children," Relia added. Adaris then remembered Anna and Fredrick's two daughters Mallory and Melanie. Mallory was only two while Melanie was less than a year old. He knew it would be hard for them without their mother.

"How are they since the invasion?" Adaris asked.

"Oh they're doing fine, I suggest you don't try to go near them though or Fredrick is not going to be too happy."

"Yes, I understand,"

"Relia!" a man yelled in the distance. Adaris slowly looked up to see Fredrick Amberfrost in his priestly robes carefully examining them. The majority of the people were gone already. Relia quickly handed Adaris an envelope before she spoke again.

"I'm coming Fredrick!" Relia yelled back. She didn't even say goodbye but looked back as she was halfway between them. Fredrick glared angrily at Adaris with his amber brown eyes as the two walked away. He then looked at the grave again. No one was there any longer and the grave just stood there, grey and cold in the green, lush forest. Wind was shaking the trees, Adaris could hear the leaves blowing through the wind as he began to slowly advance to the grave. The wind got even more intense as he was in front Anna's grave. Adaris ripped the envelope open and started to read the letter that was ripping in the wind in his hands.

Adaris,

Everything is going great! I am currently recovering from delivering my second child. It is another girl! Fredrick wished for a boy but he still loves her to pieces. We named her Melanie and she's beautiful. She has blue eyes just like me! Anyways, how is everything with you? How's the Storm Peaks? Fredrick is currently helping out the Wrymrest Accord. When I recover I'll be along Fredrick's side. I just want to let you know that I miss you terribly. I wish it was just the three of us like it was before. Remember Adaris… I will always love you, no matter what happens.

Love,

Anna

He folded up the letter before it flew out of his hands and looked down at the grave

Archmage Anna Amberfrost

Daughter, Mother, Wife, Hero of the Alliance

and that was when the rain fell down as Adaris started to cry.
