[The feed shows you an elf. The elf is young, wearing highly ornate platemail armor, and beautiful in a way that almost disturbs. His features are healthful and vibrant, his expression playful and inquisitive. His eyes glow with the magic that suffuses his entire body. He smiles only a little nervously into the communicator and speaks. Even his voice sounds like liquid honey.]

Okay, so I don't know if this thing is a scrying device or what, but I'm pretty much completely lost here. One minute I'm training at the Academy and the next I'm in a street full of so much weird stuff that I'm wondering if I overdosed on bloodthistle without thinking about it. So the thing I'm asking myself right now is, did someone try to teleport me as a prank and it went all cross-eyed on the both of us? Or is this the most insane dream a man's ever had?

I've pinched myself 'til my arm turned red, so maybe it's the former. And if so, I'm Koltira Brightdawn, and it's uh, nice to meet you? Jeez, I hope whoever played this joke can get me back home, too. I have a brother to look out for, man.

...Koltira?!

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

That's my name! And yours?

[idateforsupper]

Nope, it's real and you're not drunk either.

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

That's what I was afraid of, on both counts.

[[just sort of staring at the post a long moment]]

It-- it isn't a prank. There's something here that transports people from other worlds here...

[[sounding a little stunned cause holy crap, what a difference.]]

[Voice]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

So--this is a whole other world? I've heard of that before, but ... never thought it would actually happen to me. Jeez.

Koltira?

Well... It en't a dream. Or a joke... And we can't get home.

Damn and damn again. Know any reputable inns where a man can cool his heels while he thinks?

[holymedaroli.livejournal.com]

Weren't you a lot...grumpier last time?

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Ehh? You know me?

K...Koltira?

Where's your stone face, stone-face?

Not another one. How many more...?

[voice]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

I've gotta say you've lost me, friend. How is it that everyone knows my name? Maybe this really is just a lucid dream ...

[Video] pretty elf is pretty *_*

[atoningforsin.livejournal.com]

[Raises eyebrows.]

Sorry, but you're stuck here, as are the rest of us.

[Video] sew pretty <3

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Nuts to that. [he rubs the side of his face] Maybe I take a nap I'll wake up and be back in Quel'thalas. Can you nap in a dream?

[kickinsidekick.livejournal.com]

Koltira? You look-

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Ah?

Voice ;; Darnassian

[pandablade.livejournal.com]

Hail! It appears this land was not bereft of those of a similar species. Are you a cousin race to the Kal'dorei?

Voice ;; Darnassian

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

[a pause--he's never met a night elf!] I expect so, yes. But I've only heard about them from stories.

video; common

[frostmourned.livejournal.com]

Should you find whoever portaled us all here, you let me know.

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

[peers; squints] You're--the prince of Lordaeron, right? I will, of course.

[liadrin.livejournal.com]

Um. Koltira I...

Will you stay here with me. I don't like being alone.

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Liadrin! Well, where are you, then?

[Video;]

[argent-honor.livejournal.com]

A mistaken portal-spell is, perhaps, not a bad way to look at it.

[Tirion looks a bit glum. Aside from the fact that history has more or less exploded, it's nice to see the elf alive. Not so nice knowing what lies ahead of him.]

[Video;]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

I can't really think of any other way to process it. [blinking again. This is clearly a paladin.] Looks like a lot of us from Azeroth were affected.

[video]

[rock-it-punch.livejournal.com]

...Huh. I guess you were a lot better looking before the whole gray skin condition thing kicked in.

[video]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Uhn, what?

[windsofcourage.livejournal.com]

K-koltira...?

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Yeah? You look like one of my brothers, excepting the eyes.

[pissedkitty.livejournal.com]

Koltira... Brightdawn.

[...] Of course. [What the HELL is going on here]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Of course? Were you expecting someone else?
[HE'S AS LOST AS YOU, MAN.]

[spacetimeguard.livejournal.com]

[He's doing a lot of staring on the comms right now.]

Nice armor, very, very, very pretty. [hfjah you make him miss his now. gd, ELF.]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Thanks much! I try to keep it polished, yanno.

[Video]

[soultospare.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry. It's not a joke, or if it is, then it's being played on a lot of us.

[Video]

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Bloody hell. I guess I can't do much but make the best of it for the present.

[wantedtostudy.livejournal.com]

Koltira... Brightdawn, was it?

I'm afraid it's no joke, but I'd wager you've been told that already.

[deadelfwalking.livejournal.com]

Yup, you've got it!

It's pretty thoroughly sunk in now. Unfortunately.

1/2 this is laaaate because I fail

[ebonbladed.livejournal.com]

[It's Koltira. It's Koltira who is still alive.

Memories from life are occasionally distant, memories of the Scourge are clearer. Always clearer.

But it's still his friend.]

I'm afraid I don't know much Thalassian, but-

Bal'a dash, Koltira.
