A Once and Future...

Theramore.  The salty sea air drifted quietly against the demolished buildings that riddled the once vibrant port town.  For years, the scarlet-haired beauty avoided stepping foot into the devastation.  Long ago, she called it home, and now it was little more than a ghost.  Another specter haunting her past.

Pale fingers glided over charred and crumbling stone, nothing like the shimmering white towers she remembered.  This place that took her in when she was broken was now broken in turn.  Another favor she could never repay.

The front towers still stood, the last remnants of the once great settlement.  With some effort, she made her way to the top, violet eyes gazing over the buckling docks as she did so long ago.  If she closed her eyes, she could still see the Alliance ship bobbing at the pier.  She watched him leave without a word.  Without even a memory of what they had once shared.  That day, she stayed atop that tower until the sun began to set, the galleon disappearing into the horizon.

For some years now, she thought herself at last over him.  Free of his memory and the pain it held.  It was only a day ago that a simple errand for the bronze dragonflight shattered that illusion.  Seeing him up close again.  Hearing the familiar rumble of his voice as though he were still there.  She had nightmares and delusions before, but none of them were real.  This was painfully so.

The waves calmly broke upon the shore, a stark contrast to the dam of emotions that broke within her.  A devastated howl erupted from her throat as her legs crumpled beneath her.  For all of her successes, all of her loves, all of her joy…nothing could truly salve the hole he left in her heart.  The half-elf’s forehead was pressed heavily against the cool stone as tears puddled beneath her.

She was never able to repay him for saving her.  For giving her a daughter.  For giving her a life.  Instead, she stayed away.  Hid their child from him.  Robbed them of a chance to meet and know each other.  How could she ever forgive herself?  How was she supposed to, when she felt responsible for so much pain?

Minutes passed like hours before she finally rose to her feet.  The wind picked up, whipping through her wild locks.  Memories of cages and darkness intertwined with sunlight and the freedom of being in the air again.  She wasn’t meant to meddle with the time-lost souls back in the Isles, but how could she just let this be?  There had to be something she could do.  Something to make even one life better for him.  For all the resources at her disposal, she felt helpless.  What good was wealth and influence if it couldn’t solve the greatest of your problems?

A sharp beeping chimed from her satchel.  She silenced the communications device and moved to sit on the edge of the tower.  There was no telling how long she would stay.  But she couldn’t bring herself to leave just yet.

Delicious Moist Banana Bread

(I made this today with apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice and chopped butter-roasted pecans instead of walnuts and it is so good, I’ve gotta share.  For my oven, it took 50 mins of bake time plus an extra 2-3 minutes with the oven door open at the end.  There’s a nice, caramelized crust around it and its moist and sweet and absolutely amazing!)

Original Recipe can be found HERE and is credited to Insanely Good

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup butter (melted)

1 cup white sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

2 medium bananas (mashed)

DIRECTIONS

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.

In a large bowl, mix together the butter and sugar. Add the eggs, vanilla and lemon juice. Mix well. In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Once fully combined, pour into the butter mixture. Mix until smooth.

Mash the bananas with a fork or a potato masher. Fold in the sour cream, walnuts and mashed bananas. Spread the mixture evenly into the greased 9×5 inch loaf pan.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 60 minutes (or until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the loaf).

Remove from oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then remove and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

RP Hooks ––– –

Tarvasha is a rather prolific trader.  She made a name for herself some years ago after learning the ins and outs while staying in Ratchet.  She took to it naturally, being rather charismatic and multi-lingual.  She is also an exotic dancer and former whore with the Sisters in Sin.  For a time prior to the recent invasion of the Legion, she was an established Comfort Wife (what is that, you ask?).  She was married to Jake Fletcher (of the Golden Keg) for a short time and once ran a small import shop in Stormwind.

In the far past, she lived in a Highborne settlement in the Tranquil Glades before they were corrupted into the Felwood.  Her mother led the encampment and was a proponent of the arcane, even after the Sundering all those thousands of years ago.  Surviving Highborne from the settlement of Cartouche would know of Tarvasha and, more importantly, the secrets her mother hid.  The corruption of the Glades nearly destroyed Cartouche and sent the young half-elf running south.

For a period of six years, from the time the orcs settled in Kalimdor til shortly before the war against the Lich King, Tara was enslaved in Durotar after her escape from Felwood.  Her distrust of elves at that time drove her into the barren land.

She has also been involved in shadier dealings and, following a nasty postpartum depression, worked a small stint as an assassin targeting slavers and traffickers.

You might know her if:

You spent any time amongst the orcs (and were privy to their slave dealings) from the beginning of their settlement in Kalimdor til about a year prior to the assault on Northrend.  It is possible for you to have noticed her in passing or paid to use her depending on your involvement with the orcs.

You are a merchant or trader who uses common routes.  Tarvasha organizes many trade routes along the common lines and is a familiar face in port cities.  You may have heard the name Tara Haalos in the past, though these days she goes by her full, proper name.

You are a merchant or trader who uses secretive routes.  Tarvasha organizes quite a few lucrative lines as well, Though she is more likely to have used an alias and hidden her identity, it would not be unusual to have spotted her once or twice in sketchier parts of the world.

You attended the trial of Garrosh Hellscream.  She was a very minor witness who was tortured by an appointed quartermaster under Garrosh’s rule.  She gave a short statement during the proceedings.

You are from or have spent time in Halfhill within the last three years.  She owns a small home in the Heartland and frequently conducts business in the central market.

You are a member of or are affiliated with the Blacktalon.  Tarvasha has worked for Wrathion for nearly three years now.  Originally, their acquaintanceship began through Ravenholt.  However, after her daughter’s brush with death, she became indebted to the dragon and works for him as a fully-fledged agent.
