I am Zephiir a young adult Blood Elf, and this is my story:
I was a child when the Scourge came to Quel'thalas. When the Scourge attacked Silvermoon City my parents hid me in a secret room in our house. I stayed in the darkness for about a week, after the sounds of battle had gone and my parents had not returned, I ventured out to discover wretches shuffling through the buildings and wandering the paths.
Terrified I retreated back into my hiding place and prayed to the light for help. I felt a warmth in his heart as the light filled me with strength and the courage needed to use it.
I don't remember much about the day I fled the Ruins of Silvermoon; I just remember being woken up by a warm tingling sensation spreading throughout my body. I slowly opened my eyes to see another elf wreathed in golden light chanting over me as the warmth continued to spread throughout my body.
After a restful sleep brought on by the healing I sought out the healer. I discovered him attending to another person, but as I walked closer something felt wrong - tainted. I noticed the healer was sweating, and looked exhausted. I knelt down next to the healer and took one of his hands. The healer looked up surprised, peered at me, nodded, and started saying the prayer louder and slower. I felt myself following along and repeating the words in rhythm. Slowly my chest grew warm, and then the warmth spilled out and down my arms to the elf on the ground. The healer glanced over at me then, and smiled brightly. We kept up the prayer for another 10 minutes until drained my grip loosened and fell to the ground exhausted.
I woke up early the next morning and found myself in a bed in the inn. The healer appeared as I sat up and introduced himself as Aldrae. Aldrae asked me to help him tend to more patients, and together the two of us saved many from the clutches of the wretched over the next few weeks.
Then one day no more survivors were found. Aldrae took me aside and told me he would be heading back to the surviving portion of Silvermoon City in a few days as it was almost restored. Aldrae offered to take me with him and train me to be a Priest. I accepted and I am now training at the Sunfury Spire with Aldrae, to use the light to heal others.
(OOC: I will probably be late in the evenings, and/or sometimes during the day. I'm currently at university, so it depends on homework etc. I at some point would like to go through all the raids (preferably in order). I also love the lore of WoW I have almost all the books, and am now starting to watch the playlist created by nobbel on youtube. Let's have fun!
