The shaman smiled softly at his comment. He was indeed strong and she lightly squeezed his hand when he took hers. Like Iylldrraen, Aelena could not help but smile at the sight of the cubs being playful and following with them. It gave her a sense of purpose, something to fight for and raised her spirits at the same time. Following behind Rivern and staying close to her druid companion calmed her anger and brought up memories of the last time that she had been there. Even though it had been at the height of the war things had been simpler back then. She bit her lip, remembering the crush that she had on Iylldrraen and if she was being honest, still did.<br/><br/>Once they were in the cave, she looked around, noting the maps and other items on the table. Like the druid, she waited for Rivern's permission to sit down. Once it was given, she sat gracefully and leaned forward to get a better look at what the maps showed. The angle of her lean afforded both of the night elves a rather delicious view of her cleavage should either man choose to partake. She listened in silence while Rivern explained what was a risky but very ingenious plan. There was a queasy feeling in her stomach. She had never liked dragons. Even those that were friendly still unnerved her. She would do her part though and hopefully it would be enough to help this land heal.<br/><br/>The grim look on Iylldrraen's face gave her his answer before he even spoke.<span style="color: indigo">"I am with you in this as well." </span>She spoke softly with a light smile playing across her lips. She was looking forward to getting to play the part of a wintersaber. It would be fun. No matter what happened, it would be an adventure with old friends. She smiled to both of them and gave Iylldrraen's hand a squeeze.<span style="color: indigo">"I look forward to it."</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
