Until that last historic moment, in her very long life age was irrelevant.The Windsong family are traders and crafters, specializing in armor and alchemy.  In support of these goals, Ven has done a lot of traveling over the years.  She discovered an inherent dislike for large cities and low ceilings.  While the Night Elves were officially cut off from the world, the reality is not every herb in the world, nor every type of leather is available in Ashenvale.  When the family expanded trading operations for Quel'Thalas, Ven moved there to take charge of that end of the operation.   Living among the High Elves, Ven became comfortable with magic being practiced around her, but never fell prey to the temptation to learn to use it herself.  She lived peacefully among her High Elven cousins for millenia, staunchly single, relishing the open space and the time she could spend outdoors.When Quel'Thalas was destroyed, Ven fled for the forests of Ashenvale only slightly ahead of the onslaught.  She still does not know what happened to many of her friends from this time, but fears they fell prey to the Scourge.  Ven holds herself back a step from the world.  Immortality conveys a certain distance from events.  While she knows she will age, and even die unless immortality is returned to the elves, it hasn't really quite sunk in yet.  So many things have changed during her long life, she still believes there is every reason this will as well.After the destruction of Ashenvale, and the impact it had upon her siblings, Ven returned to the path of the hunter.  As her training had been long ago, she went to Teldrassil for a while, but fled the Elven lands for Azeroth as soon as she could cross the Wetlands.  Quel'Thalas had been her home for so long that life among other races seems more normal than life with other night elves.Ven continues to travel, supplying her sisters with materials for their crafts and working primarily on behalf of the Argent Dawn.  She does not see the Horde as an enemy, but as fellow victims of the Burning Legion, the true enemy and destroyer of life as she knew it.</blockquote>
