You could try to be forgiven.

((and frankly, despite her protests, I've been WAITING for something like this))

[Oh. Another Draenei. THIS IS AWKWARD.]

Forgiveness for the sins I have committed in the name of the Lich King is a long road.

[From the tone of her voice, she's well aware that's no excuse]

Which starts with a single step, of which I am aware as well, it is just a matter of finding it. Despite everything, the Light has its purpose for sending me into the darkness and forcing my reflection upon it, I am just frustratingly unaware of what that purpose is.

..Perhaps I should clarify.

I mean it is the Light's purpose that we are freed of his will.

The wickedness of mortals sometimes works in as mysterious ways as the Light.

[Because who knows why her daughter died? The Light didn't allow it, but mortals have free will, and they need to pay the consequences of living with each other.]

Perhaps there is something to be learned. I could not say what it is either. It is the way of the Draenei to bear the consequences of the sins of others. From everyone who has been given much... much will be demanded.

[Adorazuran quickly begins to notice the other Draenei's... condition as well. Part of her's thankful for it, and as a result, she relaxes somewhat. But only somewhat--the fact she's dressed as a priest is.. ..conflicting signals to say the absolute least.]

They are, at that. Even having been in his service explains very little as to why, or finding out the rest of his actions from the Humans. [Indeed, that was one of the first things Adora asked around about when her free will was returned to her. Why did Arthas do what he did? The answers she got were varied, but shared the common theme: He was a paladin. A bringer and fighter for the Light. And someway, somehow, he fell and took all of Lordaeron with him in the process.]

I.. do apologize, I am not the most patient of us. [Even after, y'know. Dying.] And as a result I am more than easily frustrated when my path isn't clear.

I am Adorazuran.

The Scourge are mad, as the Eredar were. There is a capacity in all of us to become that if we turn away from the Light's council.

Patience is not easy. If all virtues came easily there would be less merit in them. What has been done to some of us is monstrous, but it does not... make us monsters.

I am Ziro who is called Third-born. It is good to see another sister that has returned to her own.

It is good to see another one of us who has returned to her own to me as well. Seeing another is rare to say the least. [Though she can surmise why fairly easily, not many who would've fallen would be.. ..well, we can't call it 'content' with her existence, but at least feeling it would be a waste otherwise to end it. ~~She Cannot Self Terminate.~~]

That is true. [Damn you and your sense, Ziro.] And that is, admittedly, what makes us stronger than those that become the monsters. The fact that we do not.

[She, admittedly, wasn't the most devout Draenei in life, and she.. .. well, it's even more complicated now, safe to say, as another who can't go near a Naaru again (at least, that's what her writer believes--Naaru, after all, are physical manifestations of the Light, and holy magic is painful to all forms of undead). But she did follow its teachings in her own way, if nothing else. Even if her pride was her downfall.]

As I said earlier, I do believe it is the Light's plan for us to have been freed and to perhaps use that to learn. At least, that is what I believe. It is another chance, if nothing else, to make right on many wrongs in the world with what we have been given, however dark the power may be.

To use the abilities we acquired as Scourge?

[She looks down at her hands - under the meticulously-clean white gloves, the fingernails are flaking and the skin is bloated and discolored.

It always seems like it'll seep through and someone will see it through the cloth. She changes them three times a day and burns the worn ones.]

It is the fruit of a poisoned tree. It shouldn't be... allowed further in by use.

((Even if I'm a little terrified in how her worldview is, in comparison to other Draenei XD))

[Hello, no eye contact is a go. Adora is well aware hers isn't a popular view]

By that, we technically should not even be allowed continued existence. [She says it quietly, staring at one of her own gauntleted palms. As she's wearing the full plate of a warrior, though the sword strapped to her back's still quite shamelessly a Runeblade, made quite obvious by the six runes carved into the flat of the blade (Two Blood, Two Unholy, and Two Frost)]

I am aware the Light does not approve of the dark powers I continue to use, even if I believe I am using them for the bettering of the world. [A sigh, which probably is an odd sound with the Echo all death knights possess] But if I sit and do nothing, I am useless.

[Which is something she cannot stand for. She has to do something. She has to be active. Adorazuran cannot sit idly by and let the world go to hell when she has strengths that can be useful--however dark their origins may be. That said, she continues staring at her own hands, half-lost in thought, memories of what she's done both in and out of Arthas's service.]

[We are not useless.] You are not useless. By your freedom, you strike a blow against the darkness. You are its failure to diminish your will.

((As I'm glad you're game for continuing it, however slowly. ♥ Hopefully my life'll settle down and I can actually throw Adora in a real game. Gal's got issues. Also, fixing grammar))

Even when I use the darkness against those who seek to spread it and blot out the Light? [Yeah. She's painfully, painfully aware of the hypocrisy of her continued existence and actions. This isn't the first time this has happened, nor will it be the last. As there's a reason she avoids their people--and it's not just because being around the Naaru is painful. She can't face them. And when she does, it usually ends in an argument.]

It is a subtle divide between using dark means to achieve light ends and using them for less noble purposes.
