The subject matters little, whether it is medicine or magic or literature. The distinction between teacher and student does not concern me, but you may state it if you wish. I have found that people with a particular thirst for learning enjoy the company of others, but are often too remote to communicate without prompting.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will volunteer first. I have studied magic of all kinds on Azeroth, either to control it or to subvert it. I have mentored in the past, but I am not the finest teacher nor the wisest.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=paradisa&amp;ditemid=600275" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>

It's a figure familiar to some and terrifying to others: lanky, robed from head to toe in dark crimson, with two long ears and silvery hair leaking out of the hood. Krasus drifts from aisle to aisle until he finds what he's searching for. One may spot him, then, either reading at a table or perusing the black magic section. Notably, he is missing the last two fingers of his left hand, though it doesn't bother him at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Judge his reading choices if you want.

Alexstrasza's tree has grown and bloomed since his last visit, its massive branches providing shelter and shade to all who require it. The tree is the most important link to his lifemate and his queen. Needless to say, he spends a lot of time here.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is something different about this visit, however. Krasus is uncloaked, wearing the purple robes of the Kirin Tor instead. His skin is pale and his eyes are black-- something not typically seen on elves from his world, though the long thin ears are typical. His hair is a silver color, streaked with crimson and coal, and it falls free to his waist. Most notable are the three vicious scars on one side of his face. He is ageless and strangely handsome in spite of his battle scars, probably because elves-- or dragons in disguise-- don't wrinkle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;He presses one hand to the tree's trunk. His gaze is one of intense concentration, and beneath that, unabashed longing. The clearing suddenly lights up in a display of late spring blossoms. Roses of an ethereal red wrap around the tree-trunk-- perfect, thornless, and beautiful. He sighs and sits back down as if he didn't just make allergies hell for everyone.]&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;small&gt;[ooc: &lt;b&gt;open to all!&lt;/b&gt;]&lt;/small&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=paradisa&amp;ditemid=371666" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
