Astris stared to her daughter whom lay on the cold ground her eyes welled with tears. “Is she...?” She asked her eyes looked to Malfurion whom was completely recovered. “She’s not...” She bit her lip slightly. She watched as Malfurion created the portal into the darkness. “The void...” She raised her brows as she watched Mya step into the darkness and the portal disappeared. “No one ever returns from the void, Malfurion...” She looked into his eyes, she then looked to her daughter and brushed a bit of hair from her eyes. “They must return.” She nodded to herself.

“Wait up...” Kalise rushed forward after the glowing being. She looked around the darkness. She could hear voices, whispers. “What is this place?” She asked, her voice soft.

The creator looked to her, “Hm you’ve never heard of the void, young one?” He asked and chuckled. “Ah yes, you are not versed in the dream, or the realms within it.” He waved his hand and the world around them swirled with wind.

Kalise took a step back from him the wind whipped against her body tossing her hair about into her eyes. She looked around though her eyes always gravitated back to his light. Her own eyes were glowing white still, the same hue of white that the creator held.

“We’ve company.” He turned his head, “Maybe that druid can help you find your way, lost sheep?” He chuckled and turned, as he turned he disappeared into a glowing dust that dissipated into the world around her.

Kalise took in a few quick breaths. “Druid...?” She questioned her eyes looked around the dark expanse. She couldn’t see anything at all. She took a step only to hear the cackling of a voice. Her heart began to race. She spun around to be confronted by her memory of Orne being overrun by humans. She backed up from the memory and shook her head. “No...” She turned and rushed away from the memory. She could see the glow of a light in the distance. “Wait!” She cried. “Wait! Creator wait!” She called as she teleported forward. Kalise suddenly slammed into something. She toppled to the ground and the clattering of wood upon the marble surface followed. She took in a sharp breath as her eyes fell upon Mya, her expression was of surprise. “Mya...” She breathed. She looked to the staff that had clattered across the ground, it was only a few feet away but the orb still glowed brightly. “It was you...not the creator...” She whispered. She scrambled to her feet then and helped the druid to her feet. “I’m sorry...I...” She glanced around, the voices still beckoned her. She drew her brows together, “Are you real?” She looked to Mya. She then lowered her eyes. “Did I force you here too?” She questioned. “Wherever here....is...” She looked around the darkness a moment before she grabbed Mya’s staff and handed it to her. “There is a creator here...one of the creator’s of the world tree...he...said that he chose me...” She looked down to her hands, blue runes swirled upon the back of her hands. She had blue runes upon her cheekbones that accented her face nicely. “He said he chose me before I was born...he did something...it gave me power...I can still feel it...” She looked to Mya with her glowing eyes. “I don't feel the same anymore.” She shook her head. “Is it the dream?” She asked softly.

“We can’t hold it much longer captain!” Jonsy called over the shouting of men. “We are taking on water! The damn coats blew a hole in the starboard side! The men can’t patch it!”

Leo grit his teeth. “Take the wheel!” He ordered. He rushed down below deck to Kalise’s room. He entered slowly and looked to her and then to Mya. “I know this isn’t the most opportune time...” He spoke as he knelt next to Mya. “I need you to heal the ship, we have a battleship on our ass and I can’t shake it, not until we reach Huvor pass...and it’s dangerous...the tide could lower and leave us high and dry...but it’s too thin for that ship to pass through it...” He grit his teeth as he heard another cannon ball crash into the side of their ship. “I’ve kept Kalise safe this long...we can’t let her down.” He shook Mya gently. “You have to wake up, druid.” He shook her again. The ship swayed violently. Kalise rolled and toppled to the floor. Leo caught Mya. “Damnit.” He groaned as the ship leveled out again. He rushed to Kalise and lifted her limp body onto the bed once more. “Get up!” He tapped Mya’s cheek.

Mya stepped forward into the darkness, her staff a beacon in it’s horror. She turned her head – ears just slightly twitching as she heard the clattering of feet on the marbled floor. She gasped as she was thrown to the ground, her staff clattering against the ground, shining against the smooth silky floor. Mya groaned and slowly stood - her hands ready for battle, but instantly relaxed when she heard Kalise’s voice.

“Not a dream – this is real” Mya held her hand forward and took her staff from Kalise. “You are in the void realm – “ she paused and glanced around. “The dream is a space where all realms come together and weave about. We druids train hard to navigate through the realms to return back to where we once came. Many powerful often get lost in the realms, and never return, leaving their bodies to decay and dissipate. You being here is an example of that potential…” she reached out to her. “I followed after you with the hope to help get us back… this I know how to do” she grasped her arm. “But do not let go of me – any bit of magical disturbance can waft you into a different realm, especially if demons are taunting you”

She stepped forward when suddenly there was a screeching sound. Mya stumbled back and groaned deeply, her ears throbbing. It was then a voice played over the darkness of the realm. We can’t patch it!! You have to wake up, druid the captains voice rang strong through the darkness.

“Damnit” Mya huffed and looked about… She looked to the amber stone and she sucked in a deep breath. “Cenarian can do it…” she spoke to herself, “Malfurion too” she shut her eyes. “Hold this – “ Mya handed Kalise her staff. “Your captain – our bodies are sleeping on their ship, which is being attacked. I have to help… I am going to try and perform an astrial projection….” She sucked in a deep breath.

Mya took the amber into her hands and then held both closed fists forward. Suddenly before them a huge glowing image appeared, the ship was floating in the sea, another bombarding them with cannon balls. The whole ship swayed roughly to the left, the sail’s even just barely dipping into the water before it shot upright.

Mya’s eyes glowed a bright blue – a figure of herself stepped from her own body which stood in the realm. It approached the glowing ship before them, and suddenly she seem to join the image, her blue image appearing in their world as well.

Floating over the ship was her figure – her arms held outward. A huge beam of light shot from the sky and landed onto the ship – right in the center of the deck. All over the ship huge thick roots, one of a tree that had to had been over 500 years old, began to encompass the hull. They weaved about, until the ship practically grew outward an entire three feet or so. It patched the holes, and provided impenetrable protection. A cannon flew forward and smacked into the roots, it caused a small divet – and the cannon ball stayed lodged into the roots. Though, the roots healed swiftly, growing over the cannon ball, absorbing it into it’s thick hard flesh.

Still floating several feet above the ship – Mya turned and looked to the opposing ship. Her palms opened and suddenly several giant sharp roots shot from her palms. The roots burst through the ships’s hull and weaved across it, ripping apart the wooden. Several tendrils ripped through, like a snake ripping it apart. Within in moments the entire ship had been torn into several pieces and was bringing in water swiftly, drowning it with speed. What seemed like less than a minute – the top of their sail was sinking below the waters….

Her blue image, floating above the ship disappeared, but the roots remained. Now a permanent part of the ship, unless requested otherwise.

Mya stumbled back and gasped as the blue light faded, the image of the ship before them disappearing. She had brought their world into the void, and her self into their world – creating a link in realms, and phasing through both. Mya opened her palm to the glowing amber, which had given her much power to assist her….

“We must hurry-“ she gasped through a deep breath, her arm linked into Kalise’s and they rushed forward through the darkness, her staff still guiding them. “We are looking for something out of the ordinary” she spoke. “In the void? A light, or shimmering, maybe even a bit of heat – like a crack in the house allowing something otherwise into it…”
