"It all makes sense now!"
"Come on, Tim. Leave off." Roger sighed.
"Of course she can do any damned thing she damned well pleases; she's the daughter of one of the faction leaders."
Gerald snorted. "Who disowned her thirty years ago over the death of Fandral's son?"
"She ain't disowned now." Tim slammed his fist on the table. "I'm telling you, someone should take her down a peg."
Steve snorted. "Like you did? That worked out so well."
"You shut up, Steve. I should have never had you try to infiltrate her house. Now you're gone over to her."
"She was perfectly decent, and asked me at every step. We never even touched." He had wanted to, gods her body was rocking, but he'd agreed. Maybe he'd take Elunara up on her offer of repeat visits.
"Well, it's not like Tim will ever get to find out. Any attempt to get in there will be denied." Gerald snorted.
Tim growled. "Too damned bad John had to sell out for his own skin. There's a man who knew what was what."
Gerald sighed. "That was his sister, remember?"
Tim considered. "Maybe I'll pay her a visit."
Gerald shrugged. "Nothing stopping anyone. Just don't wind up like shit cleaner Terrance."
Tyrande smiled to Renwa. "You have quite the little town here. It certainly has blossomed since I was here last."
"We like to attribute it to Elunara and Grogek, though Tulani has helped quite a bit in her own way."
"Fascinating to know."
"I'm pleased you've chosen to stay for a few days at my home. Even though Zelinnia has been hiding behind corners again." He sighed.
She laughed. "What is the matter with her?"
"She is easily embarrassed, among other issues."
"You glow when you speak of her."
He laughed. "You know, Elunara saved her. Elunara had been captured by a maniac with an obsession, and when he tried to kill Zelinnia, Elunara gave herself to him, and kept Zelinnia hidden. That's why she's even here." He said quietly.
Tyrande just stared. "She gave him her body?"
"According to Zelinnia, because Elunara won't really speak of it, Zelinnia was "given" to Elunara as a present. When Elunara tried to make excuses to free Zelinnia, he picked up his axe, ready to kill Zelinnia for not being a satisfactory companion. Elunara got between them, distracted the large orc, and had sex with him. Rather than make good her own escape, she continued to give herself to him, to keep Zelinnia out of his range of vision. Each time she was spotted, Elunara went in between. In Zelinnia's words... "I've never seen eyes so dead."." Renwa shook his head. "To hear Zelinnia speak of it, you get sick."
Tyrande put a hand to her chest. "I had no idea she was capable of that." She said quietly.
Renwa shook his head. "No one really does, until she does it."
Tyrande frowned. "Why is that man chained?" She pointed. "And those scars..."
"That is Terrance. He... well, Elunara embarrassed him, and so, in revenge he tried to rape Tulani. Zelinnia saved her."
"Is that so?"
He laughed. "Zelinnia may act like a coward, but she really isn't. She attacked him and held him down until help could come. She can be a little viper when she's angry." With a shake of his head he sighed. "I have to be honest with you, and tell you that every single scar on his body is Elunara's doing. Her wrath is not one to be trifled with."
"Well, she IS my daughter." Tyrande smiled. They reached Elunara's door and Tyrande reached up.
Renwa put a hand on her wrist. "Forgive me, but the sign is up."
"Do not disturb." She laughed. "Even Grogek?"
Renwa flushed. "I'm not explaining the second one." He pointed up.
"Elunara, Artistic Expert and Sexual Consultant." Tyrande blinked repeatedly. "She put out a SIGN?"
"She can't be a mission specialist anymore, so she made a business out of it. She must be in with an appointment. Ah, I guess you could say that, the first sign keeps out everyone else. The second sign is so that Grogek doesn't... ahh disturb them."
The door opened and Elunara ushered out a man and a woman. "I'll be there in the afternoon, three days from now, to explain the rigging."
The woman flushed. "Thank you."
The man's eyes went wide at Renwa and Tyrande. "Ah, Tuffy..."
"Oh my!" Tuffy put a fan in front of her face and took off running.
Elunara winced. "Just because everyone knows what I do, doesn't mean they don't get embarrassed being seen leaving."
"Rigging?" Tyrande found herself asking.
"One of the many things I call "sexual aides". Come in." She backed away. "You can get a lot of fun out of straps, ropes, and handles. I've been working on a design for a new housing set up."
Renwa laughed. "She designed some of the strange things you've been eyeing in my house. Sadly, Zelinnia and I haven't gotten around to figuring them all out yet."
Elunara shrugged. "Just tell me when and I'll come over and show you."
"You certainly have been busy. Where is the baby?"
"Tulani took him up to the tailor shop, I had some consults today."
"Are we interrupting?"
Elunara shook her head. "My next one doesn't show up for about an hour." She tapped a finger on her board. "Gerald has got some of the new recruits heading over... to get on my good side."
