For the Ones We Love -

Chapter 28: The Gift Of Power-

Azariah traveled all the way to the Grove of Cenarius to see her father. He didn't come visit her but she had to go to dalaran and then to Val'sharah. Bucky was more than willing to fly and Frost carried her the rest of the way. She was lucky to have both of them to guide her around. Merlin and Felysae stayed at home with Allari and Saria, they were old owls and they got cranky if they had to move.

Her father was standing in the middle of the Grove as she rode up. She gently patted Frost as she got off and approached her grandfather. "Azariah! By my mother how you've grown." Cenarius said hugging her as she smiled.

"It's been far too long grandfather." She said with a smile pulling away. "I do wish the circumstances were better."

"Yes Malfurion has informed me of your plan to get your parents back. Though i don't see how I play into this." Cenarius said and Azariah nodded.

"To give you the plain simple version of this, you have to infuse your necklace you gave to my mom with more power so i can kill and tap a titans soul." Azariah said and Cenarius looked taken aback.

"You mean to tell me my power will help you take down Sargeras?" Her grandfather said and she nodded with a confident smile. "I'll give you all the power i can give but this will be your only shot in defeating a titan." Cenarius said and Azariah nodded. She handed him the golden necklace and he held it within his hands.

Malfurion practically appeared besides him when he started to chant and gave her a smile. "Did he agree?" Malfurion asked watching him chant and the green energy flow into the golden necklace. "Sorry, i take the chanting as a yes then." Malfurion said watching Azariah nod.

"He agreed, this will be my only shot at defeating that asshole titan though." Azariah grumbled and Malfurion slapped her head.

"He is a asshole but language." Malfurion said and Azariah grumbled under her breath.

Cenarius stood up and handed her the necklace, the power was practically radiating off of the golden chain. "That was all the power i could give without breaking the Emerald Dream for most of my druids." Cenarius said and Azariah nodded.

"You've already done more for me than half the people i consider family. I will get this to Allari and she'll help me next. For now would it be okay if i stay the night, the sun is setting and despite me being a demon i would prefer not to travel alone in the dark." Azariah said and Cenarius smiled.

"Of course my granddaughter, me and Malfurion would be happy to entertain you." Cenarius said leading her to his small house. Azariah looked around the house and saw that everything was the same, nothing had changed since the last time she'd been here. When she was five, after her parents died, she lived with Cenarius for a few years. He helped her get the rage and hatred under some level of control. Azariah was in grief when she came to the grove, the black burn on the table was one way of proof.

"What do you want to eat?" Malfurion asked getting out some wrapped packages. "We have some leftover deer, cheese, and some soup." He said lifting each container up and looking at them.

"Deer and cheese is fine, thank you uncle." Azariah said watching him warm up the food with a spell and hand it to her. She took some pieces of the deer meat and ate it with cheese. Cenarius and Malfurion talked with her for a long time until she yawned. Cenarius urged her to go to sleep and honestly Azariah couldn't disagree with him. She was so tired and drained of all energy to even move it was amazing she was up this late.

"Goodnight grandfather, good night uncle Mal." Azariah mumbled in between her yawning and she went to the spare room and crawled under the covers. With one final yawn Azariah closed her eyes and fell fast asleep. Her final thoughts a prayer to Elune that everything worked out.
