Wakaraina looked at the dwarf with apprehension as he approached her. These smaller folks didn't have a lot of fear, but still, she always assumed something half her size should be a little more timid.By his belt was an axe, but strapped to his back was a shovel. He spoke in a stuttered Taurahe. Wakaraina was impressed that he'd bothered learning her language.
"Miss Wakaraina," he said. "We understand you have extensive knowledge of the history of these parts, and of the Winterhood Clan."
"I do, somewhat.My family has passed on it's history for ages, since the Tauren came to the Earth. As a Shaman, I know the ways of the Earth Mother," she replied.
"We have need of you. We came to you because we know you're willing to work with anyone from the Horde, or the Alliance, and you've got a strong set of arms. We're interested, you see, in the past. You have the knowledge we need of the ancient ways. Only by understanding the past, can we understand who we all are now."
The discussed details, and Wakaraina reluctantly accepted. It'd mean seeing her Tribe much less for the next two moons, but the dwarf was right, this was important.
((Got a job for the next six or so weeks in Vermont. The hotel has internet, but I'll be working 48 hours a week with mandatory socialization at the local bar afterwards. So there'll be a cutback in hours spent on WoW, which is a good thing I suppose.
Also, there's apparently a plant out there around the site called Wild Parsnip. You get it on you and don't notice anything until you get into the sun and get 2nd degree burns. Oh, if only I had 315 Herbalism in real life!))
