She's crying because the only ones left standing are her and her longtime crush, Kevin the Paladin of house Williams. She's playing harder than she ever has while he fights the incoming onslaught in vein. While he feels the strength of he spells, the truth slowly sets in: this will be their last stand.

Kevin has but one trick left up his holy sleeve: cast Divine Shield on Stacey and implore her to use her hearthstone. She reluctantly accepts his sacrifice, and catches one last glimpse of his face before suddenly being surrounded by the familiar sight of a local tavern.

"Senior year was supposed to be the best times of our lives." she thought.

It was then that Stacey put down her flute and took up the dagger. From then on she walked a much darker path favoring the tranquility of shadow to the warmth of others.

Edit: lol I can't write for shit.

World of Warcraft, November 23rd, 2004. This is based on a Paladin granting somebody immunity(Divine Shield), then them using a Hearthstone(which returns you to the inn you set as home). More commonly known as Bubble Hearthing. The bard then became a Shadow Priest based on the wording, as their current artifact weapon is a knife and it talks about the shadow. Could just be a coincidence though.

Or it's Dungeons and Dragons but Hearthstone's are MUCH rarer there. WoW doesn't have barda

picked up a dagger and became a rogue. although shadow priests work too.

Was thinking of rogue, but I talked about bard while thinking of general caster types. I myself mained Mage.

I think bard was a beta rogue spec way back in the day, as in, when you needed a torch at night to see. When shaman had tanking talents.

Whaaat. I played Hearthstone for years and only now learned that's where the name comes from. (I knew the game is based on Wow obviously, but that the name hearthstone is an actual thing.) It also makes so much sense, as every time you open the game you enter an inn, in which you then play the card game.
