I wanted him to see I could I fend for myself, that I could be a good adventurer like the ones we grew up idolizing. Then the wars started again, the Sundering, everything started to go so bad... taxes got higher, prices skyrocketed, I sold everything but my own body just to get the supplies to make it from the Cape of Stranglethorn back to Stormwind. Meanwhile he was only doing better as time went on. I wanted to be better than him, to prove that... I don't even know what I had to prove. He never doubted me, he always supported me." </span>She wiped her tears away then looked back up at Ashia.<span style="color: #0000ff"> "If nothing else you saved me from myself and put an end to his concern for my health."</span><br/><br/>Elerona shrugged and created a massive flower in front of them which she pushed Flora onto then crawled beside her onto the 'bed'.<span style="color: #5900b3">"I don't need luck, sheer stubbornness and a charming smile are all I'll need... and maybe a really horny human. Or two. And I know I have you to vouch for me in the future, or are you going to tell me you didn't enjoy yourself?" </span>She wrapped her arms around Flora again and nodded.<span style="color: #5900b3">"What makes my mother so terrifying?
