Found this on my computer one day :D.

Warning: Not Beta'ed


It was a beautiful day, indeed the sun was high and the wind was cool. But something irked Daldir. Something was missing from this, suddenly he recalled what he was and understood what was missing. He was death itself, life was gone. Only his soul and his body remain, the lich's terrible magic at work. As he rode his night saber he wondered, will his race accept him as a hero he was once? Or condemn him as a monster of the scourge? He sighed at this, for people judge too much on looks. Granted he looked menacing, his sword glowing icily, and his armor ebony black. His mount too was a staggering sight, his nightsaber was black as the night, with glowing blue eyes, and glowing ice covered feet that turned the ground cold. But as the knight of death went through Ashevale forest, he noticed something else. The creatures did not run away from him, this he though was odd, did they know who he truly was? He did not know, and he though he would never know. As he came closer to Astraanar the closest Night elf outpost in Ashevale, he could see the Sentinels on guard. They were standing proudly in defense of their home, but again the question came up would they accept him? He edged ever closer, urging his mount forward, and constantly on alert. Now he feared this moment for he was very close, and they could almost see him. One sentinel saw him, and yelled "scourge!" this caught the attention of almost everyone at the outpost. The young female sentinel that spotted him started charging to him, and dared a blow. The Death knight easily parried it and grasped the weapon out of her hand. He spoke in a deep hallowed voice; "I do not mean harm to you. I have escaped the lich king's grasp, and all I want is to be accepted again by my own race." The night elf stood in shock, "but your one of them! How do I know you are not lying?" The death knight sighed at this remark, "ask your leader, the death knights of the Ebon blade have joined forces with the alliance." Said the death knight as night elves with raised weapons surrounded him. It was obvious to him that his mount was uneasy to this, so he said in his native tongue, "there, there, they won't hurt you". This must of shocked the night elves around him who suddenly asked. "You really mean this? You really are coming back?" The death knight responded "Yes, I wanted to see my relatives for I have been dead for years." "All right." Said one of the sentinels, as they let him pass to catch the boat at Aubernine.
