| abstract | - Fighting along side Sylvanas, Elüna Astrüm would gladly give her existence for her dark queen. As her only bidding in life was to eradicate all living beings in Azeroth and make it the world where the dead would walk. Many things have changed since then, many things indeed.. It started as any meeting the Embrace would hold. Master Vermogen would make his grand entrance after the introduction from Elüna. He would stand there in all his glory and splendor, eyes flaming, the cold dank air crackling around him. His presence was ominous and could chill even the hardest of the Forsaken. "Dear brothers and sisters of the Embrace, hear me!" his voice boomed as it pierced the ears of those who still had them. He continued after clearing his rotting throat as he surveyed the attending crowd "I have news to tell you.. it is the Horde." He peered over at Mistress Elüna, as he did he felt an unease in her but brushed it off as she just smiled at him. "The Covenant has begun, and all plans are at full force. We will go ahead with the eradication of the Alliance." the crowed cheered, a few where clearly drunk. "There will be a meeting soon between members of the Covenant, where all races and members of many guilds will meet to find out the best way to go about their demise." Proud of his speech, Vermogen again looked over at the Elüna. Her somewhat flawless face showed her deep blue lips curling in an evil grin. Was she grinning because of the speech, the covenant, or some other hidden agenda. Vermogen could still not shake the feeling that something was about to happen, but yet again he turned to the crowd and continued his speech. Elüna did not register Vermogen looking at her. She was too wrapped up in her own thoughts, the evil grin yet again forming on her lips. Her fingers moving in a rotating motion, her palm started to glow slightly. "ENOUGH!" Her voice thundered as she punched her fist towards Vermogen, and a split second after she had opened her hand Vermogen was turned into a wandering sheep. "I will not stand by and let you taint the Embrace! You will die by my hand this night; I will dance on your ashes and drink of your blood, Vermogen!" "What is this Elüna? Have you gone mad!” Ghuul said as he was clearly taken aback by the sudden display of treason. The other attendees where shocked at what happened, some to drunk to care. One even got a wide smirk on his face as he cackled softly. "You speak of alliances, and pacts.. This is not the way of the Embrace, nor is it the way of the Forsaken. I have stood by long enough, watching you change our very reason for being. The soul reason Embrace of Death exists! Not anymore Vermogen, not anymore!" As the last words escaped her mouth, Vermogen transformed into himself again. As he staggered to get his bearings, the air started getting colder and an invisible shield formed around his body. "What are you doing Elüna, have you gone absolutely insane?" He shouted as ice started forming around his fingertips. Elüna hit him with a blast of fire and transported herself behind him and unleashed a wind of snow and ice. Turning, Vermogen managed to release a piercing shard of ice directly into Elüna's stomach. The shard went into her as blood started dripping from her mouth. "It will take more then that to stop me Vermogen, I will have your head..." and in the blink of an eye she was behind the crowd getting on her horse. Before anyone had the time to react she was riding away and only a faint manic cackle could be heard. The onlookers began running towards their horses as Vermogen stopped them dead in their tracks. "Do not follow her.. I have a feeling we will be meeting her again soon enough.."
