Fan Fiction
Fan Fiction
Holiadore. It is a name of honor and pride. He has not yet
lived up to the dream, but this night elf will train and train in
the ways of the druid until he achieves his ultimate goal- to
be as good as his father. His father never had pride in him
so Holiadore ran away from home as a child and has
practiced the ways of the druid ever since. He uses the
skins of his foes to craft armor to use against stronger foes.
He goes through many perils to do the bidding of the
townspeople. He, in doing so, trains his abilities until they
can increase no more. And when he reaches his ultimate
goal, he will return to the place where he was raised, the
place that, once, his family lived. And he will place flowers
upon his father's grave, and continue in his practices. This
is the story of Holiadore.
