headed for savetheearth

[northrend]

No, girl. As a matter of fact, I cannot say I approve of any of your scheming. Past, present, nor future.

Your will is weak -- a dangerous trait to have in my presence, as you are well aware. Were you truly never taught to leave a sleeping dragon lie? Perhaps you were dropped on your head one too many times as a child.

[darknessb4me]

You again.

[northrend]

Did you think I would fade away? That would be quite naive of you.

[darknessb4me]

And of course we've never been naive, have we? Just offer yourself to Frostmourne and Lordaeron will be saved. Serve your master faithfully and your pitiful existence will have meaning.

[northrend]

[A laugh.]

My, we've grown quite bitter, haven't we?

[darknessb4me]

Of course I have. You're still happy with yourself and what you've accomplished, I take it?

[northrend]

Most days.

[darknessb4me]

And when you're not?

[northrend]

Then I'm not.

[He's poured his soul out to himself enough times MAN. Or what's left of it.]

[darknessb4me]

If I'd wanted an completely unhelpful answer, I'd have asked [Drake. This one's never met Drake, or Sarah, or even Hix.] ...someone you don't know.

Do you know where you're going?

[northrend]

How insightful.

Yes.

[darknessb4me]

I don't care about your opinion. What's important is that you have an opportunity to change your destiny.

[northrend]

That's subjective. And, as far as I know, not quite in the cards.

[darknessb4me]

No it isn't. Die there and don't come home.

[northrend]

I've been through this song and dance once before, you know. It is rarely ever that simple.

[darknessb4me]

Yes, I know.

[crymoore]

It won't be all that bad, will it?

[ Arthas being permitted to live a life without the stress of either of his crowns is something she's eager for. ]

[northrend]

You are far too optimistic.

[crymoore]

[ Maybe if she continues to be optimistic, it'll spread to him. That's how infection works, right? ]

There are things no man--[ Or orc. ]--can take from me.

[northrend]

[Rolling his eyes a little here. EXCUSE HIM optimism was squashed out a while back.]

Hmph. You are entirely content with this arrangement, then?

[crymoore]

[ If he kills her, maybe he can win the roll on her optimism! ]

A second life unlike the one we already have lived is nothing more than a dream, but a dream I'm willing to seek out.

[ She may be unaware of the Plans involving her though OOPS. ]

[northrend]

We will be but shadows of ourselves.

[Secretly ok with that but not going to admit it.]

[crymoore]

Is that not the point of this world?

[ To be changed in some fashion or the other. ] I think it'll be alright. Even in changing what we can recall, we still will be the same people... won't we?

[northrend]

Of that, I am not so certain. I have been stripped of my identity before.

[crymoore]

[ She wants to encourage him that this time he won't be alone when he does it, but was he ever alone as the Lich King? Nope. ]

... Is it frightening to forget everything?

[northrend]

I didn't forget everything. It was merely kept from me.

[Not entirely true but we're going 3 for 3 here.]

[crymoore]

Still, you must have been scared. [ Oops. ]

[northrend]

[Not...answering that. He's the leader of the Scourge damn it. Instead, his lip will simply curl.]

I did what I thought needed to be done. There was nothing to fear.

[crymoore]

[ Exactly, those guys are frightening. ]

You were surrounded by fear nonetheless. If not within your mind, it rests in the thoughts of those who encountered you.
