It has been a long life. I have spent a good seventy-five years upon Azeroth, a good fifty with my Nóiméad. But I must go to the barrow Dens in Moonglade to enter the Emerald Dream… it calls to me, that is how I know it is my time, my time upon Azeroth reaching it’s close. I know Nóiméad won’t be too happy with me leaving Azeroth behind to walk the Dream, but it is where all Druids go at the end of their life, they must give up all of their earthy possessions to be able to enter the Dream. Nóiméad has many years left on Azeroth due to him being a bronze dragon. I write this now to say goodbye, for tomorrow I leave for Moonglade to begin my journey to the Emerald Dream.

Nóiméad, you must live on with your life, I am but a mortal woman who has reached the end of her life. We shared many prosperous moments together, sharing our love and laughter. But I have lived a good life, and that is because of you. If I wasn’t called to help fix the timeline of Stratholme’s destruction, I wouldn’t have met you, and I wouldn’t be as happy as I am this day. You have taught me a great many things, one being how to bring inner balance to my Worgen curse. I am sorry my love, but I would rather live on in the Emerald Dream, being one with nature, than to die in my sleep, wrapped in your loving embrace only  to have you wake up to my still and cold form.

You may accompany me to the Barrow Dens; I would prefer to take the long way so I could spend my last moments upon Azeroth with you. Spend as long as you like beside my sleeping form, but do not try to awake me, for I would be disconnected from the Dream and be unable to enter anymore.

This must burden you so much, knowing my end and not being able to share with the risk of disrupting the timeways. But always know that even when I slumber in the barrow Dens, my spirit wandering the Dream, I will always be upon Azeroth as one of nature. Every flower you kneel down to breath in it’s fragrance, every tree you lean upon to rest your eyes, and every deer you pet, you will always be in contact with me.

Remember that I love you,

Yours Truly,

Lekyra Eliza Windsor-Earthenhowl
