What in the world! My first reaction was to reach for my wand and try to defend myself. "Please don't, just relax I'm not here to hurt you". I didn't trust her so I did keep my guard up and was ready to whip out my wand if I had to use it. "You almost died there, are you alright?" the human asked. I must have hit my head REALLY hard. I could understand everything she just said. Horde are not supposed to understand Alliance race language. "If you haven't noticed, I AM already dead. And yes I'm alright" I said trying not to come off as very grateful. "Well technically you are 'undead'". she replied. We laughed. "I'm sorry, I know it's weird, but please don't think I saved you just to kill you after I got you out of the water, I'm not your typical 'Alliance trying to kill horde' Human. I hate all that crap. My name is Vdara."and she extended her hand. Still full of suspicion and soon to be disgust because I was going to shake the hand of an Alliance, I met her hand with my own "Deadskully, thank you for saving me. We talked for a bit and she did seem really nice. No animosity towards me and I didn't feel myself getting upset or feeling dirty like I needed to take a shower to wash off this human filth. We sat for a while and talked about just random stuff. We laughed and everything, it was weird but it felt normal like I was making a new Horde friend.
A little while later we decided to fly around. I wanted to show her the crazy whirlpool so we got on our mounts, me on Violet and her on her Netherdrake. That thing was a beauty. You get it from helping out the Netherwing Faction over in Shadowmoon Valley. I tried to help them out but that was just a long ways away to go for me everyday so I know it sounds mean, but I gave up on helping them out. Maybe I'll start again, just for the reason of getting me a Netherdrake. So I flew over to the whirlpool area and I wanted to get closer.
As Violet and I flew down, Vdara yelled for me to come back. As I turned back to look I could feel us getting sucked in. Violet was struggling to fly back up. The whirlpool vortex was sucking us in. Holy Crap! Come on Violet, you can do it. She was able to brake free of the vortex and fly us back up. Vdara just remembered someone in her guild had died from taking a closer look when this whirlpool appeared. Thank you for warning me about that! This just proved to me that she really was a nice person and she wouldn't try to stab me in the back. If she was, she would have just left me to fly closer and die.
After that we decided to have a sat and just admire the whirlpool by afar. So we grabbed a ledge and sat down. Turns out she is actually on the run. Her father is a real butthead and wants her to start training in battle grounds do defeat the Horde Forces. She doesn't want to. She likes neutral friendly zones, like Booty Bay, Gadgetzan, and Ratchet to name a few. Places where Alliance and Horde can come and not have the opportunity to kill each other . I can sort of relate to that, Sort of, only because I love Orgrimmar. As busy as it is, I just love to hang out there and watch the crazies.
Anywhos, after our chat, she needed to be heading back to Stormwind City. She is a Mage so she can put up portals and she put one up for herself. "I wish I could give you a portal back to Orgrimmar"she said. "no it's ok, I have my hearthstone set to there". We said our goodbyes and she went through her portal and I used my hearthstone to go back to Org.
Making an Alliance friend was the last thing that I thought was ever gonna happen to me today, or ever for that matter. Vdara proved me wrong about all Alliance being buttheads. I take back every negative thing I said about Alliance, WAIT, No I can't say that. I don't take back everything I will feel the same when an Alliance comes over and ganks me when I'm out minding my own business. I just like this one Alliance and this might just be the only Alliance that I will EVER like. Unless we just happen to bump into each other somewhere, I really think it will be a hard to see her again. If this was the only time I got to hang out with her, I will be sad, but I will understand. Today I made a new friend, Vdara, Human Mage.
