What is up guys and possibly girls (Although I doubt it). Welcome back to the Seven Deities! This time round, the story isn't as rushed so uh..yeah..sit back and enjoy. Also feedbacks/reviews would be really helpful. Or even just a simple comment :)

*Elaine Silverleaf*

"Where am I...It's so cold…." Laying on my back, I slowly opened my eyes, seeing through my blurry vision, were the outlines of a forest around me with mountains in the distance and a bright, white moon in the night sky. As my vision began to clear, blades of grass seemed to sway before my eyes, my blonde hair slightly covering my eyes as I began to notice something out of place. My vision seemed...slightly blue with a tint of green as I looked around. All throughout my body, I felt cold and frozen. As if I was…dead.

As I tried to remember what had happened before I 'blacked out', I realised that I had no memory of anything. My name was...Damn it all! I can't even remember that?!

I pondered for a few moments before deciding to give up for the time being. Surveying the area once more, I appeared to be in a clearing of some sort. With a dense forest surrounding it and a small stream a good 20 metres or so from where I lay.

Realising that I should attempt to get up at this point, I proceeded to moving my hands from my chest to my sides. However, my arms seemed to disobey my thoughts despite my best attempts at getting them to move even just slightly. What the hell is happening?!

Lifting my head with great effort, I looked down at my hands. My eyes widened as I looked down on my hands, my left arm with a silver gauntlet strapped around it. What use to be a nice, lightly tanned colour now contained a slight, light blue hue. Through the shock, my hands finally obeyed my commands as I lifted them upwards, reaching for the moon as I looked with shock and horror. "What is this?! Am I…"

The sound of light footsteps walking in my direction immediately caught my attention as I rolled my head to the right. Although my vision is still slightly blurry, I am still able to make out the figure of a man in black clothing and a hood over his head. He seemed to have two swords strapped on his back as well as two strange, cold blue lights glowing from the middle of his he continued to make his way towards me, I started to panic.

A few moments passed before he stood a mere metre away from me as I looked up at him with fear-filled eyes. He appeared to be wearing full, black leather armor, including his hood that appears to be attached to his trench coat, just under the collar, with extra padding on his chest area as well as a white pauldron with a some sort of blue energy line that ran all round the pauldron. Many knives and daggers could be seen hanging around his belt as well as another knife that was strapped to his left boot. At this distance, I could see that his 'swords' were actually twice the size of greatswords. If he could wield those, he must have immense strength.

As I looked up at his hidden face, I could see that he was wearing a smooth, black mask, his eyes glowing a cold blue with a neon green outline.

He appeared to be...studying me? As he stared at my frozen state for many long moments before kneeling down next to me. Despite my fear, I felt...attracted to him in an extremely strong way. As if something had happened between he and I in the past.

After another long, frightening silence. He spoke in a deep and powerful yet slightly muffled voice. "You have awaken."

The statement the man made seemed blindingly obvious to Elaine as she looked up at him with less frightful but more of a confused stare. He seemed to sense this as he continued. "How are you feeling?"

With great effort, Elaine was able to reply in a hushed voice, almost a whisper. "I...I feel...strange…"

The man seemed to ponder this for a moment before continuing. "Do you remember anything? Your name? Your age? Where you're from?"

"I….I can't remember.." Replied Elaine as she looked up at him with saddened eyes.

"Your name is Elaine Silverleaf. You are 47 years old this year and you come from Silvermoon city." Stated the man in an understanding voice. Taking in this information, Elaine seemed to look away as she tried to remember. Even just a hint would bring her some comfort.

Sensing her discomfort, he continued. "Are you able to move?"

Elaine quickly looked back at him and spoke with a clearer voice. "Only my arms and hands."

To Elaine's surprise, the man reached down with his left hand and wrapped his arm around her armored back, bringing her up to a sitting position and supporting her weight. As she looked at him, glimpses of 'feelings' seemed to flood through her mind.

"You wish to know what has happened." He stated in a monotone voice.

"Y-Yes." Elaine stuttered back in surprise.

Taking her hand, he gave out a small sigh before speaking. "You died in battle."

Looking up at him in shock, which quickly turned into sadness, she looked down. Recovering after a few moments, she looked back up before speaking with a shaken voice. "So I'm…"

"No." Interrupted the man, already knowing what she was about to ask. "You have been reborn. But not as a servant of the Lich King."

A small amount of comfort filled her thoughts before she continued. "So what am I?"

"You are a Death Knight. Not created by the magic of the Scourge, but something that is much more powerful." He explained.

"What difference does it make?" She spoke with a hint of anger.

"You are free to do as you choose. Many have taken their own lives through shock and fear. I would not blame you if you choose to do so yourself." He said with calmness and a slight hint of affection as he held her hand gently in his gloved ones.

"Then please. Kill me." She said with certainty. "I do not wish to live as this."

The man seemed to chuckle slightly at her statement, despite the situation. "Is that truly what you want? Many that have accepted this new life have come to realise that this is not a curse. But a gift. A second chance."

Pondering the thought for a moment, her thoughts began to sway. "Who was I?"

"You are a Sin'dorei and was part of the special forces Lor'themar Theron created that embark on the most dangerous missions. You served Silvermoon faithfully for over 20 years, rising from a simple warrior to the rank of captain of the 4th division of the Special forces." He spoke as Elaine absorbed the information.

She seemed to stutter her next question as a moment of silence passed. "H-How did I...die?"

Looking down in a sinister way as his entire face was covered in the shadows of his hood, his eyes began to turn into a blood red colour before he regained control over his emotions. "You were sent on a mission. To obtain information about a rumoured stronghold of the Scourge in the lands of the Sin'dorei. Upon arrival, you indeed, did discover the stronghold. However it was much bigger than anticipated."

Pausing to let the information sink in, Elaine's eyes seemed to glance side to side as she attempted to recover pieces of her memories.

"You decided to attempt to plant explosives over the stronghold, eliminating the Scourge army in the process. Although you did manage to plant the explosives, you were unable to detonate them due to malfunctions. As you made your escape, you were shot with multiple arrows, one with poison that halts the functions of your respiratory systems completely after mere hours." He seemed to look with a slightly saddened look despite his mask covering his face. "I found you here. Suffering. Dying. So I made the call…"

"To resurrect me and turn me into...this." Finished Elaine with a surprisingly calm voice.

"Yes." The man looked away, appearing to be now ashamed at what he has done. To his surprise, he suddenly felt a slightly cold hand cupping his right cheek.

Gazing back at Elaine, he saw that she had somehow raised her hand up despite being resurrect a mere hour ago. She seemed to give off a beautiful smile before she spoke her next words. "You thought this was the right thing to do at the time, and I don't blame you." Elaine pursed her lips before continuing. "Even though I've lost my memories, I still remember one, important thing that mattered most."

The man returned her gaze with neutral eyes as he wondered what she remembered. Usually Death Knights remember nothing of their previous lives, no matter how much time had passed or how powerful or important it was to them.

Leaning in close, Elaine was mere inches away from the man as she smiled even more, revealing her pearl white teeth. "I love you, now and forever Talion."

The man seemed to gasp silently as his eyes widened in surprise.

A mere second passed before his eyes began to soften and his features turned into one of a smile as he raised his right hand up to caress her cheek. "Now and forever, my love."

Moving his hand away from her cheek, he slowly slid off his hood and took off his mask, revealing a handsome face. He appeared to be human, with chin long dark brown hair, defined features and hypnotising eyes as they began to turn into a warm blue.

He began to lean forward, Elaine following his lead as their lips touched. It was a simple kiss that lasted for what seemed to her, an eternity before they parted.

Talion seemed to chuckle as Elaine looked in confusion. "What is it?"

Talion stopped chuckling after a few moments, answering her with a smile. "You are special. When I resurrected you, I used all the power at my disposal. The result. Well it seems that, you're 'mostly alive'."

Elaine began to look even more confused at his statement, tilting her head sideways in a cute manner.

Talion resumed chuckling as he simply stated. "Notice anything about your hands?"

As Elaine turned her attention to her hand that cupped Talion's face, her hands seemed completely normal. Not even a hint of blue can be seen as she retracted her hand and examined it with suspicious eyes. "H-How…"

"I told you. I used all the power at my disposal." He spoke as she looked back at him with her mouth slightly open. "The only effects of a Death Knight that you will feel is most likely, from what I assume, memory loss and having blue-green eyes, perhaps cold skin."

Taking in what he had said, she returned her attention to her hand. Touching it with her other hand, it still felt cold however. The sudden touch of Talion's hand snapped her out of her trance as she gazed at him.

During her thoughts, Talion had already put his mask and hood back on. He then spoke as he got Elaine's attention. "Shall we go? We're technically still in 'Scourge Territory'."

"Of course." Replied Elaine without hesitation. With the help of Talion, she was able to stand up. At first her legs seemed to give in instantly. However after a few attempts, she was able to finally stand on her own and even walk.

Looking at her, she appeared to be wearing full leather armor like Talion except Silver lined with gold. Her chest however, appeared to be covered by a polished metal chest plate. Her leather armor was of a silvery color, how they managed to dye it that color was beyond her understanding. Twin knives seemed to sit on her belt, but other than that, she seemed to be unarmed.

"Where are we going?" Elaine asked as she looked at Talion who stood behind her as she practiced walking normally.

"Your comrades believe you're dead. Your younger sister, and only family, however, know that you are still alive. I had sent a messenger to request her to meet me at my fort."

"Convenient." Elaine chuckled. "So we're going to the fort then?"

"Appears so." As he looked towards the mountains in the distance, decorated with snow at its peaks. "It's a four day march from here. But I've got a few connections along the way that may make the journey shorter."

"Oh?" Asked Elaine with a raised eyebrow.

Returning his gaze to the elven beauty, Talion gave off a small smirk. "Frost Dragons, specifically. I believe a few of my dark rangers have also been dispatched nearby in the Ghostlands."

As Talion walked towards her, he grabbed her shoulder gently before stating. "When you're ready, we'll go."

Hopping on one foot, Elaine tested her balance and strength before replying. "Think I'll be fine. Let's go."
