"You're very composed and probably one of the smartest, if not THE smartest person I know. I hope to keep getting to know you more and more in the future."

"Oh, that's so kind of you to say. The getting-to-know feeling is mutual!"

( Thank you anon! <3 )

Compliment Day: "Your ability to remain calm under pressure is something I hope others take notice of and try to replicate themselves."

"It's something I've learned over time, but it's served me well."

( Thanks anon <3! )

"You are perfection and I don't know what I'd do without you in my life." Khaeris hugged her.

"With any luck you won't have to find out!"

( Thank you @kharrisdawndancer <3 )

TMIT: Does she have plans to travel back to Khaz Algar at all?

She absolutely does! There are still quite a few Kirin Tor compatriots in Dornogal and she's negotiated with the Magistry to get some leeway to help out once the Kirin Tor leadership decides what they're going to do.

Plus she's heard they have some really interesting sheep out in Rambleshire that she'd love to get a better look at sometime!

Thanks @turning-through-the-never!

TMIT - If your five year old self suddenly found themselves inhabiting your current body, what would your five-year-old self do first?

"Ohh... probably cycle through all the illusion enchantments I have for my prosthetic arm. Some of them are quite bright and artistic, and it's all magic, that's hard to ignore for five year old me."

( Thanks @themadamelioness! )

If you had a chance to go to any library on Azeroth, where would be your first choice?

"The one in Fairbreeze, I think. It's modern, quiet, small and terribly charming. Hard to want anything more from a library, really.

If you're nice, the librarians may even make you tea."

( Thanks @nahisummerhold! )

[TMIT] Would Pyraelia be the type of woman that could survive alone in the world, stripped of everything that made her who she is? How would that play out for her?

Technically, yes. She's already done just that voluntarily the once, primarily because she's never been one to believe that things make her who she is.

Anything can go away in an instant -- that's the world she lives in. She was meant to die young and didn't. She's a prodigy when it comes to magic. She abdicated her titles entirely and chose to walk her own path. She's taken it upon herself to learn how to cook, clean and manage a household even though that was always considered below her. Being stripped of everything and left with nothing is a learning opportunity.

If she had to play that out, she would. When your world comes crashing down around you, you wake up the next day and figure it out, because that's simply what one must do.

Thanks @safrona-shadowsun!

What has been your favorite part of All Hallows this year?

"Helping pass out candy to some of the younger trick or treaters in Fairbreeze Village. It was a really fun time!"

(Thanks anon!)

Both her and Aerden were captured in Dalaran! Have they spoken at all about their semi-shared experience?

Not yet! He's still on military time and she's been busy getting her shit together after losing her entire workplace and a lot of the people she worked with to a void sphere implosion.

I'm sure they'll catch up soon!

Thanks anon! @aerdendios mentioned.

[pyraelia]

What is she up to now in Silvermoon? How is she coping with the fact she almost died again?

Getting back to work and settling back into normalcy! She's an archivist and researcher, not an adventurer. It's nice to be back among the stacks.

She's coping fine, every day is a gift! She was never supposed to live past her first century anyway, and that definitely pre-set her mindset when it comes to incidents like this -- shit happens, if you didn't die, great. What's the point in dwelling on it? Keep moving and make the most of what you have.

Thanks anon!

[pyraelia]

What change does she want to make in the near future?

Some renovations to the little manor house she bought earlier this year. It's smaller than the other manor houses she's lived in, but it's still quite large for one single person.

She's focusing on the kitchen first, it could stand to be much more colorful and open! She likes baking and cooking for herself, so mostly making it a comforting place worth spending time in rather than a place meant for a couple hired help to manage and others to never be in.

Thanks anon!

[pyraelia]

How is she doing after her ordeals? What is she looking forward to?

She's fine! Still really sad about Dalaran, but she's been really sad about Dalaran multiple times throughout the course of her life, so she'll get over it eventually.

She's looking forward to her new job with the Magistry, it's been a long time since she's worked with that organization! The director of the archives really wanted her on board after they found out that she was the one who helped get information out of Dalaran before it was destroyed, so they made her an extremely good offer.

It's nice to work again!

Thanks @kharrisdawndancer
