He had never known of an elf to not have their large pointed ears and she certainly did not smell like an elf. The feathers in her hair caused him to briefly consider the possibility of an avian demihuman but she lacked wings or feathers elsewhere so he decided those most be decorative. She was clearly not fairy and demon seemed unlikely as well and Cade wasn’t exactly sure what the strange creature could be, until Inori spoke. [i]He ended your kind[/i], the demon's words triggered a realization for him. Stories his brother, Shadow, had told him when they would hunt, of a race so powerful that even Aklenroth feared him. For a brief second Cade was afraid, any creature that could evoke fear in the Lich King himself was surly dangerous. But Shadow’s stories of the humans were not frightening, but rather hopeful, of creatures who had centuries ago defied the lich. Was this human here to help them? He listened to Inori and gathered from the demon that someone had brought humans to their world. Everything started to make sense; the strange earth tremors, the powerful magic, and the usual scent and feeling in the air. This was a creature ripped away from another world, an experience he could only imagine was beyond frightening and disjointing. Inori’s reaction to the human was not one Cade would expect of a creature totally loyal to Aklenroth and the orc seemed to be somewhat confused as it stayed silent. Avalia was a dangerous place for a human, the lich slaughtered them all once before and would likely do the same again. He decided he must help protect the human, whatever her quest here may be, as her very presence in their world was a defiance against Aklenroth. This is what Shadow would have done, and so, it was what he would now do. He bowed to the being who introduced herself as Ayita Ani’-Wa’Ya. [color=gold]“Pleasure to meet you, Ayita Ani’Wa’Ya. I am Cadence of a Thunderstorm. Most simply call me Cade, and you are indeed in Avalia but this is a dangerous place. There are many here who would not welcome your arrival.”[/color] He said choosing his words, wanting to warn her but not wanting to go straight to talking about an evil Lich King and his undead minions. [color=gold]“I am a well versed traveler, and I can offer some protection to help you.”[/color] He offered, although he wasn’t sure how much help he’d be if Aklenroth sent the entirety of his forces to find the human.
