Caitie and Starshield had been on good terms since they had met each other again, and reinvigorated by his latest adventure, he rejoined the horde in its fight against the few remaining cultists that served any threat. For a week or two, it was the same thing: he found a cult encampment, converted or killed each cultist, and went back to Orgrimmar to rest. It was a tiring job, but he was glad to be working again. But much like he had before his first journey began, he began to wonder about what he would do once the cult was destroyed, but this time, he began to worry about what would become of the horde and alliance, as the presence of these cultists was all that kept them from focusing on each other. An open war between the two would spell disaster, and his last effort to instill peace, though not in vain, did little to quell the larger forces at work. Little did he know, he would have a new opportunity to create an even greater success.
As he left a recently deserted encampment, the space before him began to flicker with blue flashes, eventually materializing into the same figure he had met several times before.
"Leave me be, sorcerer. I thank you for what you have done for me a week ago, but I'm not ready for any more surprizes."
He stood for a second, taking in what he had been told, and responded calmly.
"You assume too much of me, tauren. I'm not here to surprize you. I merely came to ask you this:
"Do you believe in destiny? Your work in the hopes of forming peace with your enemies seems to tell me you do not. You hope to undo years, decades even, of their perpetual struggle for honor and revenge. Just know that you can mold your own destiny, but not that of others, especially your world, at least, not on your own."
Starshield stood in confusion, still unsure why the blue humanoid came to him.
"Thank you for your visit, but I do not know why you are telling me this."
He chuckled and stated, "You will come to know this in time. But I do have some news of immediate interest for you. The old island you used as a cult rehabilitation facility has been settled by some of your old followers. Maybe you can make something out of that."
Upon hearing this, Starshield immediately began to reflect on why he established the first City of Miracles at all. He had hoped to bring together the greatest skills and abilities of Azeroth to do great deeds together. He though he was the only one to have such a dream, but knowing that there were others who wanted to realize this visiongave him a great feeling.
"It was not in vain, not ever. And you are right; I should be there to help them. But how will I get there? I have no vessel to get there."
The humanoid began to laugh heartily, and declared,
"I knew you had it in you to pursue your dream! And don't worry, I will see you through, to the very end."
The humanoid then began to grow rapidly, expanding and reforming until he took the form of an enormous blue dragon. Apparently relieved by his transformation, the creature spread his wings and let out a powerful roar. Starshield simply stood in awe of this amazing sight.
"Starshield, are you ready for your biggest journey yet?"
He simply nodded in response, promting him to proclaim, "Then climb up, boy. We are off!"
