[When the feed begins, it shows Thrall standing outside a hand-made hut on the outskirts of Fayren.]

Now that things have calmed down some, I would like to offer my services as a Shaman to any who would need it. I can provide a multitude of services for a negotiable fee. I am located on a hill overlooking Fayren on its north end.

[Azalea's feeling somewhat better now, so she checks her device to see what's happening. She recognizes Thrall from the battle, and his announcement piques her curiosity, both at the mention of "Shaman," and because he didn't exactly specify any of the services he was offering.]

...What exactly does a "Shaman" do?

We primarily act as a medium between the elements and the mortal realm. However, because we channel the power of the elements, we are afforded various abilities with numerous applications. Construction, healing, herbalism, and more. I will admit, however, I am most skilled in battle, just from the amount of time I've spent fighting over the years.

Hmm, that is interesting. And I can see that you're skilled in battle from the way you handled yourself against Gilgamesh.

About your herbalism...do you practice in medicine?

What is it that a shaman does?

[She really doesn't know.]

I still need to thank you for you help you know. What would you like as a thank you?

[He figured he might as well ask.]

[He nods, not wanting to really get into his past as a gladiator.]

I do. I already have a fairly decent selection of herbs and roots with which to make medicine with.

In my world, a Shaman is the link between mortal life and the elemental world in which we live. We commune with the elements and are given access to skills and knowledge withheld from most. The Earth grants its strength and wisdom of the natural realm, wind grants focus and celerity, fire provides protection and ferocity, and water soothes and pushes forward.

I have need of nothing, and will accept no payment. I had my own reasons for doing what I did.

What were your reasons? protecting the people or something else?

[She won't press on his past battle experience. She's not even sure if she wants to press her own problem on him, since it would likely be a long-term project. Perhaps a cure would be too much to ask, but perhaps she could ask for a regular dosage?]

Well...I might possibly have something. I have a...disease...that's been affecting me for over a year. Orphne's been working hard to find a cure back home, but we don't quite understand the plague well enough. In the meantime, she's kept the clan alive with medicines that keep the plague at bay. So...I realize that a cure may be too much to ask, but I could use a similar medicine to help sustain me in the meantime...

Although...I'm not sure how to pay you. I don't really have a source of income. I can perhaps do favors though? Gather materials or other supplies?

[She averts her gaze from her device, slightly embarrassed. This was an entirely different situation that she just didn't know how to handle. Back home, Orphne is working on the same project for the whole clan. Thrall, on the other hand, will likely be taking on different tasks for different people.]

...I don't mind if we can't make a deal. Satori and Koishi have been taking care of me, so I should be all right...

That sounds like an amazing gift and practice. I would love to learn more if you have the time.

I don't know what sort of fee you would want but I'd be happy to pay it.

[An eyebrow shoots up at the mention of a plague. The Undead Scourge is still very fresh in his mind, and last he remembered from Azeroth, the Agent Crusade was gearing up to kill the Lich King. The last thing this place needs is a Frostwyrm, and he doesn't want the little dragon to turn into one.]

Hmm... I do not know if I have the herbs to formulate medicine for it, however if you come by I will see what I can do with my magic.

It is an ancient practice that has guided my people from generations. It was not until we moved away from its teachings that we began to stray.

I suppose I could do something. As for a fee, that would depend on what is done, but we can discuss that in person.

Sakura showed me kindness upon my arrival here, something I am unused to in humans. That and I have history with many tyrants of my world. The simple fact that I am still standing should say all that needs to about that.

[She perks up at the offer.]

That would be wonderful. I'm also in Fayren, so it won't take me long to get there.

[With that, she'll promptly fly over to Thrall's hut and announce herself when she arrives.]

Hello?

That's Sakura for you, she shows kindness to everyone she meets. That's just how she is. It's a rare sight to see.

That sounds like a good idea. It'd be easier to get an idea of what I'm looking for after seeing as well.

Is there a place you'd prefer to meet? I believe you said Fayren.

There have been all of two humans I've ever seen eye-to-eye with, and all have paid dearly for showing an Orc kindness. I've made it my mission to repay any kindness a human shows, as it seems their own kind would turn on them for it.

In here.

[He calls from the back of the hut. He's already got some incense burning as well as a cauldron of various herbs and spices boiling. He also has four totems set up around the room and the room itself is only lit by a few candles.]

Just to the north of the town, yes.

[The little dragons moves towards the back and stops in front of him, bowing her head politely.]

Hello...

[She then realizes that she doesn't even know his name. So she decides that now would be a good time for introductions.]

I don't believe we've been introduced. I am Azalea, a Fae dragon from Sornieth.

[She sends a final message telling him that she'd meet him there shortly. Though she gets a little turned around and shows up a little bit late. With a smile and a short inhale she turns to look out over the hill she's just climbed.

It's an amazing spot.]

Hello?

It's true. People will turn on others. We are kind of complicated in that way, we never understand there mind and the way they think to why they would do things like turn on one another.

In Azeroth, it's not complicated. It's hatred, plain and simple. My people are hated because we are Orc... and it isn't entirely without basis.

My people are originally from a world called Draenor. We came to Azeroth to conquer. My father's generation had strayed greatly from the teachings of old, and we suffered defeat at the hands of the Alliance for it. However, we have since left their lands and sought to live on our own, as we once had, yet hatred still burns brightly.

I ordered the death of one of my dearest friend's father because of the sins of those that came before. Which is why I have come to treasure kindness, however small.

And all that happened in your world? But it seems you've learnt from that time and I don't think you should still be hated for that. Though, I guess I can understand that to an extent.
