Day 163 Ironforge

"Kit it has been a long time are you rejoining the council?" Darius asked.

"In a way, but I really came to call a full meeting." I replied. "Or is one scheduled?"

"Yes there is one, but not until later. Strange that you have come out of hiding at this particular moment. There has been an increase of horde activity in many regions including the Burning Steps and the Blasted Lands. You haven't been questing in that area have you?" Darius asked.

"No I just finished STV, but I was thinking about Feralas or Tanaris." I replied. "So don't think to link this to me in anyway."

"No of course not I just wanted an update. Oh well." he answered. "I think the other members can be here in a hour or so if that is okay?"

"Call them now as it is time to change things up a bit." I stated. He raised an eyebrow, but he saw that I was serious. The last one arrived fifteen minutes later.

"Okay everyone take their seats we have a lot to go through and then low chair has a special request." Darius ordered. After an hour most of the business was taken care of. Most of it had to do with questing territory. I still couldn't believe that they allowed guilds to claim territory.

"Kit as a member of The Closers are you in a position to yield questing rights to The Followers in Searing Gorge and Burning Steps?" Jake asked. "I many ask since I heard you are moving operations to Kalimdor." I glanced at Darius, but he showed no reaction or did any of the other members. I stood up on my chair.

"Interesting question and I may have an answer here shortly as I sent Bron the question, but as far as we know we are currently questing in multiple areas. True much centers around Blackrock, but it is by far not only area we are questing in." I explained. "But to answer your question. We will neither hinder your members questing there nor stop questing there ourselves. These areas are level forty plus and central to many dungeons."

"I think you didn't hear me correctly. It is just not our guilds but all guilds they fear that you will pacify the areas preventing anyone from picking up quests." Jake countered. "So far you have done this in six regions and three dungeons. I am surprised that you haven't done this in the other areas you have quested in."

"No I haven't locked these areas because I can't and I haven't been in a dungeon since Wailing Caverns." I replied. "I do plan to pacify these other lands, but not until after Naxx, but you don't know about that one yet. What I wanted was for you all to understand one thing. This world will change with or without me. Areas I have not been in are changing so whether I go to an area or not doesn't mean it will change. Now if there is no other business I would like you hear my proposal."

"That was the last order of business." Darius stated.

"Good, certain things are available to me and not to any others these are addons. I have tried to give this to others but I haven't found a way. The other thing is I have items and profession skills high then any of you even fishing." I explained, but laying down a fish feast made a large point then I popped drums and each player got the buff. What really shocked them was when I changed into a night elf. My health rose to over 25k the entire time they stared. I then sat down and ate from the feast. My gear adjusted to my level and a few ate until they got the buff. I then stood again and drank a Flask of the Earth and my health grew by another 1700. "What I can do none of you can do and through this I am both the lowest level and the highest level player. I propose you vote to remove both positions." I didn't want fear to make them do it, but I think that was the main motivation. I left moments before the disguise wore off not that I was worried they wouldn't vote. I just couldn't be in the same room with Jake. My body wanted to throw itself at him and my heart ached with my mind not allowing it. I thought after all this time I would have the closure I needed.

"Kit wait." Jake called to me. I wanted to continue, but this time my body won. "That was all business in there but I need apologize for leaving you."

"Do you think it will change anything?" I asked. "I don't. I needed you back then and for the life of me I should hate you, but only my mind agrees. My heart and body are yours. That I didn't understand and I still don't. It is like we do not have a choice in the matter. Jake you hurt me you abandoned me when I didn't know I needed you. Now I know I don't need you, but that doesn't stop me from wanting you."

"Your heart is mine? I am sorry I was selfish. I didn't want to need you. I want to start over even though we didn't get far." Jake replied. "But I have to tell you something."

"Go on." I urged.

"Not here not in the open. Meet me in the tavern over there in twenty minutes." Jake stated before running off. I shook the short trip to the tavern, and was unable to take a single sip of my ale while I waited. He came in and waved for me to follow. I downed my ale at that point and followed. He headed behind the counter opened a door just big enough for a gnome to fit and went in. I wondered why we had to go through this little charade, but I guessed he would explain everything. It opened into a small room that had appropriately sized furniture. I could see into another room that looked like a library.

"Okay welcome to the lair of Followers. I hoped that you would join our guild and not Closers, but we were not fast enough. I do leave the offer open." Jake stated. "This room was found by another gnome and was shown to many of us. It has a lot of scrolls and books about Azeroth and gnomes in general."

"What does this have to do with us?" I asked.

"Our guild name is really The Gnomish Followers of the Lady of Time and Change. Everything we have read has lead us to believe that you are her." Jake explained. "The other part is how gnomes choose their partners, or how we don't it just happens. We are partners you can have another husband or I could have a wife, but once we meet they don't matter or they have to accept it. I never wanted anyone here." he paused to gather his thoughts and then continued. "Kit my Earth name is Sara I was watching my brother play and he went to the bathroom and told me to watch his toon. I sat down and started killing stuff and then next thing I know I am in the game. I am a female in a male gnome body. That is why I freaked out."

"Okay you are a real girl and not like the rest of us girls. Jake it is our normal." I replied.

"Not for me. Unlike others I have not accepted my maleness no matter how much of a tomboy I was." Jake stated. "It makes me wonder now why even though I don't accept it how can I feel so comfortable as a male. I don't know how you can do it, cause I am a lesbian."

"Jake every male is a lesbian and unless you are now gay it should be easier for you to accept this. I never really thought about it, but I have wondered what it was like to be female and now I know, but not really cause all the other females are former males." I countered. "Have you found any other true females?"

"I don't think so, but I have my suspicions about a few." Jake replied. "I have never been with a guy I don't even know how you do it." I giggled and sat down. "I mean how does it work?"

"No guy knows how it works they have to learn just like anyone has to." I stated. "I have never been a girl though I do know I think enough not to be a lump in bed. I am just as much a virgin as you are."

"But I don't want to be the Lady's lover just her follower." Jake replied as he got closer.

"I am not this lady I don't control time and my changing is a bunch of toys and trinkets." I stated. We must have stared at each other for hours it felt like. My mind told me it was not that long. I will spare you the details of the next few hours but I will tell you this it is better being a female. I went up and I didn't come down until he was sound asleep hours later. Which I wanted more, but couldn't move even if he still could. The little lair turned out to have a library six studies and about forty rooms all made by gnomes for gnomes. There was a full kitchen and dining hall. Along with a bathhouse and a few utility rooms. I was also surprised that no one walked in on us during our special tour.
