Each sister took turns standing in front of Lirath's grave. When Sylvanas stood before the grave of her little-lord sun, she dropped to her knees and her hood was down.
"Lirath... I'm sorry I wasn't able to protect you as I promised when Minn'da first let me hold you.. not a night passes where I hope you visit Jaina and I. And yes, Jaina and I decided to marry, you know Minn'da never approved of my relationship to her..."
Her ears twitched as she heard the caring voice of her father. "My darling girl, we have seen how you have progressed since that fateful day."
Jaina watched as her wife's family appeared to her. "By the tides..." She whispered to which Verath heard before he grinned happily. Before Lireesa made a gesture to Jaina, who stood nearby. "My darling, don't be afraid. Come, come. Let us look upon the woman my daughter chose to court." She looked up from Sylvanas with a smile as the mage approached slowly.
"Lord Verath, Lady Lireesa. I apologize for listening in." She said slightly placing a hand on her showing belly which made Lireesa grin. "Ah.. you and Sylvanas are expecting another child?"
Sylvanas' ears twitched as she quickly wiped away her tears and felt Jaina bend down next to her before waving her hand to manifest a blanket around her partner.
"I- Minn'da, Ann'da... this is my wife, Lady Jaina Proudmoore." She saw her mother's eyes soften. "Please... you are family, Jaina. Call me Lireesa." She then saw a boy walk up to them. "Daelin... it's an honor to meet you, my grandson."
The half elf sailor bent down and held his mother's hand, which made Verath smile softly. "Bala'dash, beloved grandson." The elderly elf smiled before Lirath chimed in.
"My nephew! I hope you've been causing your mothers grief. I know I did with my sister." He laughed, which still sounded melodic as it had in life.
Daelin-Verath smiled softly. "You don't even know, Ann'tha."
Verath's eyes sparkled upon seeing how much care his grandson had towards his mothers. "Surely my daughter has told you about who you were named after, my boy?"
Another voice was heard.
"Aye, surely your mother has told you tales of my adventures."
Jaina's eyes widened before she saw her own father manifest. "Father..." She whispered with tears welling up in her blue eyes.
Tandred and Derek walked up. "Ah, sister. Mother wants to kn-"
Derek's gaze widened upon seeing a familiar face, and he opened his mouth to say something before he glanced at the ground in shame, shame at what he was turned into.
"Father?"
Tandred's voice shakingly, to which his father smiled softly before the youngest of the proudmoore lineage walked up to him with a hug.
Verath immediately took notice of Derek's expression. "Derek... please do not feel ashamed.. your father won't judge, I'm sure. Just as I do not judge my daughter for..."
Jaina grimaced in pain as she let out a small cry before Sylvanas turned urgently.
"Dalah'surfal?" She asked, taking her hand into hers, her brows furrowed.
"I'm fine, Sylvanas. Don't worry about me." She said, smiling softly.
Sylvanas glanced at her mother. "Minn'da... Jaina and I are naming our daughter after you." She smiled widely as Lirath grinned happily at the fact he would be getting a neice as well.
"Does this mean she will be a sun or a moon?"
Lireesa stepped forward and placed a corporeal hand on Jaina's belly.
Jaina had silently cast a spell which Sylvanas family and her father would briefly become corporeal.
Lireesa felt her niece kick against her hand.
"Thank you, my daughter. I can already tell she's going to stronge like you."
Lirath ran forward and enveloped Sylvanas in a hug. "Where is Little Moon and Lady Sun?
"Right here." Alleria spoke as she and Vereeaa dropped down from their perch in a nearby tree.
Vereesa's eyes widened before she ran into the arms of her father with tears in her eyes.
"Minn'da?" Alleria whispered before sensing Turaylon and Arator join her side.
"Minn'da? Are you okay?"
Alleria's ear twitch as she glanced at her son.
"I'm fine, Arator. There are people who I would like you to meet, both of you."
Verath bowed his head slightly. "Ah... the paladin who my daughter met in that other world. It is a pleasure to meet you at last, paladin."
"The pleasure is all mine, Lord Verath. I have heard much from Alleria and Vereesa."
Arator shifted nervously before Lireesa's eyes landed on him.
"Come, my child. Is that really how you greet your grandmother?"
Alleria chuckled at how welcoming and understanding her mother was, despite their arguing in the past.
"Minn'da, this is Arator."
Lirath grinned widely before hugging his nephew tightly.
"Arator, it's an honor to meet you! I've been watching over my sister for a while."
Verath went over to Turaylon and placed a hand on his shoulder. "Call me Verath, my son-in-law. Welcome to the family, paladin." He said offering a hug.
Jaina leaned her head on Sylvanas' shoulder, which made Sylvanas run a hand through her hair with such care.
Lirath grinned widely. "You two are so adorable, Lady Moon. I could tell you were smitten for her when I saw you two on the balcony." He gave his sister a fanged smirk, which made Jaina chuckle.
Sylvanas rolled her eyes at Lirath before Lireesa glanced at her daughter.
"How come you never told me?"
Sylvanas' ears drooped slightly, and Jaina lovingly placed a hand on her wife's shoulder rubbing her thumb in a loving manner, which made Sylvanas place a hand atop her partner's.
"I... I was afraid you wouldn't approve, Minn'da.." She said, glancing at the ground before hearing her mother chuckle.
"My darling, I would never judge who you love. I know I was too wrapped up in our family being an inspiration to our people.. I regret that I made you feel that way."
The matriarch walked over to Sylvanas before bending down in front of the two women. "I am so happy you finally found love, Sylvanas. Even after...."
Sylvanas' blue eyes veered to the ground in shame before her mother lifted her chin to look at her, the former banshee's eyes welled up in tears.
Lireesa frowned before hugging both women tightly, careful not to put too much pressure on Jaina's belly.
"You both have endured so much.." Jaina's father spoke before he too walked over to Jaina. "Jaina... You finally have a family of your own."
Daelin glanced over to his mother who was rubbing her belly.
"Minn'da, are you okay?"
Jaina glanced up at her son. "Yes, I'm okay, I'm just so happy that your mother's parents and your grandfather approve."
Sylvanas wrapped an arm around her wife's waist and kissed her hair.
This was perfect for all of them, Lirath even got a chance to talk with Vereesa, who walked over and hugged her little brother with tears in her eyes.

As many know, Sylvanas doesn't sleep. She just mimics sleeping as a habit.
She always has the same dream; Lirath, Verath and Lireesa.
Lirath is a grown adult and he tells her that he forgives her for what she had done as the banshee queen and to not be mad at Vereesa who indirectly caused his death.
Her parents would tell her how proud they are of her, especially her mother, because she took the mantle with courage and determination all those years to avenge her people.
Her father would be the loving father, full of wisdom and a caring heart, proud of her accomplishments. I'd like to think they're all in Ardenwheald, and when there was a new arbiter, he corrected where the souls went.
She would also see her hawkstrider, Snap running all throughout the land.
Lirath would be talking about how he performs at the amphitheater every night!

I'd like to think that after Sylvanas came back to Azeroth after her penance, she reunited with her sisters.
The windrunner sisters would still celebrate Lirath's name-day, which would be a private occasion. Events in elven history like the battle of seven arrows or the passing of their parents would be celebrated in Silvermoon with a memorial banquet or something similar.
if they were celebrating moments they had with their family, for Lirath, they would go down to their favorite spot by the Spire.
