What happens when a priest loses faith when I fighter loses her spirit, when an elf loses her home or a mage her magic. Not sure really but we may soon find out.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAs0PehZrXOE

The grand arcane city of Pylon is known throughout the land for the majesty of the city that hangs above the land. Pylon is known for its scholars but most notable are its priests light bearers indifferent beings above all in the land second only to the gods themselves. Priests of Pylon are scholars in their own rights and bearers of the gift of light, able to cure or heal some of the most grievous of wounds. Some legends even say that those closest to the light can even impart the gift of life to the fallen. There are also those who would wish to attain the title of high elf priest, a title granted to only the most devote and resolute priest displaying knowledge and immaculate breeding.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAMQlQR44l6S
Down these halls moves a tall priest with the knowledge of ages in his head and the calm of experience on his face, his feature young but with marks of age not unusual for those with dedication and purpose but Findecano Tulcakelume 102 years old the youngest of the high elf priesthood, or was until a certain incident cost him his title and lineage. It had been an unexpected encounter, a high elf and a human. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsh0ALYuOe9
Tulcakelume having attained the title of priest was to do a final test, nothing difficult but a test of moral is never easy. Tulcakelume had made it this far at an early age by elf standard which is cause for suspicion in any order. His past that should be filled with light for on who walks in the light. For Tulcakelume his path was riddle with shadows in conclusive was he really a priest a bearer of light or a dark aura. This test which could be achieved by various means would answer or at least give the elders proof to dismiss him.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAc8lOTCMmBZ

Humans such filthy insignificant creatures playing at being civilized in the eyes of the high elves. Loraaga Tarmikos was the perfect example of this a woman born without feminity. Raised by the streets she was poacher and fighter, how she made her living. Since long ago she learned that stealing can only get so far and as she lacked the finesse for theft she learned her fists could gather wallets faster in the arena as well as whatever she could catch for the fights. The meeting of these two opposites would change their lives forever. Loraaga not the largest of humans stood at 5.9 and with not a touch of excess skin. She wore her armor with easy though light armor by design it was still metal, an assortment of guard arm legs back and breast plates and gauntlets.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAAHfIGhJEvl
In the forest of Shinta lost and angry Loraaga cursed herself and the gods and all the stars in the sky that allowed her to wonder into the forest of the high elves. The elves were not evil but they did hold themselves above all other races of the land especially that of the foolish short lived humans. Loraaga would rather stay lost in the forest than ask for help well until she gets hungry. Loraaga had wondered into the forest tracking a very rare and very expensive stag that lived in the forest but this particular one had wondered out of the forest. Following the stag she had entered the forest.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPpzwbbSay1
1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4Gm80qr7Tl
Above in the trees amongst the shadow of leaves moved a dark skinned green hooded figure small and nimble the dark elven halfing moved watching as a particularly loud human curse everything that was and is. The elven halfing with long white hair perched on a tree her heavy robe making her look larger than she really was but blending with the leaves of the tree. Dark elves unlike the arcane High Elves were more earth bound geomancers having lived more in the forest than cities of the arcane created and ruled by the high elves, dark elves live in the forest under the watch of trees thousands of years old. They live in peace with nature venturing no further than the trees of their enchanted forests. This grove that spanned miles in with direction was known as Shinta. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA5v8U0XvhiV

On the outskirts of Shinta there is the Ferradas academy for magic all races are welcome though the main students are human and one or two elves. In this school there is a promising mage, wise in the doctrines of the arcane. Moving swiftly through the library of the Ferradas a woman moves from shelf to shelf returning taking books. Her short green hair moving between the aisles, in garb of a sage she searches for books on magic enhancement. She is Cyable Ceres and she has a problem she has lost her magic in what she hopes is an experiment gone wrong. A week ago after an explosion from a spell misread Cyable has lost her magic the only thing keeping her in the academy, without magic she would be forced to leave the academy if anyone finds out. What she searches for is the location of a certain herb that grows in the forest of Shinta.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAr1quyTY638

In the hall of the high elf priesthood Tulcakelume stands before the leaders of the order.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAzrXqEijAF1
High Priest of the East “ Tulcakelume you have been stripped of your title and have yet to offer any form of explanation as to how this incident happened. “1103Please respect copyright.PENANAm4JvXZV7SF
Many things happen High Priest said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsrqbQARbCU
That does not answer the question, I grow tired of these games you seem to enjoy you have lost your title and will carry out a task of the councils choosing to decide if you are worthy of having it returned.” said the Priest.1103Please respect copyright.PENANASaMUNkWh2Y
High Priest of the North “You have seen that these humans have made great strides in their quest for power , they cannot be trusted anymore we have guided them for centuries as is expected of those of higher standing”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAIgKdsL7hux
‘Indeed you have guided them to that which is need to topple us’ whispered Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGMTwjgSLkj
‘What was that’ asked the High Priest of the South. “We maybe old but these ears are a blessing of the goddess”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA5xzcGgNC21
“My apologies” said Tulcakelume “but I do not see why we must cater to the watching over of these humans we have no need for them even if it is because of the concern with the dark elves, they have their forest and we our cities, the humans have their kingdoms which constantly fight consuming one another and breaking apart over the centuries.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAD2GX8Weieq
“Indeed” said the high priest of the East “As light bearer you must be able to aid those lower than you Tulcakelume, you have treated these as foreign something that”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARtrNy2eg2r
“Foreign? I was there when we quelled the human wars I was there when we fought the Dark Elves back to their forests”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARNbPvQl66L
“You also burned a large portion of the forest” said the High Priest of the West.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAqMX3FE1VL8
“That was an accident I was young” retorted Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsQzUXehn4J
“But you did not try to stop the flames either” said the high Priest of the North1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyISZcRVf5e
“We were fighting them” Tulcakelume said1103Please respect copyright.PENANAMH9MBK7LZQ
“They were beaten and retreating” thought the high priest of the West. “Enough of this it is in the past you were of great help if not debatable methods. North tell the young elfling his task”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAEiiA6pV5jP
“Who are you calling elfling” shot Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjD0X4gMtD8
“This is exactly it that temper and rebellious nature, you lack control and such your task shall be this we shall send you out into the world anywhere and we mean anywhere.” Said the High priest of the North1103Please respect copyright.PENANAAfx7JCgbVi
“What is that supposed to teach me?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAlBQlnvgV7m
As Tulcakelume said those words the room was filled with light, stunned Tulcakelume shielded his eyes a wind from where he knew not came. His white robes blowing against him could not help him tell the direction of the wind. Just as suddenly as it started it ended. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcvSP6q5xf8
“Always playing around those old hats” thought Tulcakelume. “Where am I?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAaPcRkReQM4
“What the hell was that!?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAqEkpaNkL96
Turning towards where the shout came from Tulcakelume there sat and angry Loraaga, less sat more bowled over.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA1oWhiZKlAO
“I hunt that thing for three day and when I finally get the chance to catch it you show up with your light and wind and now it’s gone!” shouted Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAra6DZaBRNl
“What seems to be the problem human” said Tulcakelume icily “I have no time for your short lived troubles, where am I”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAG7ExlALU3B
“You uppity elf you live long so you will remember this for the rest of your life” shouted Loraaga as she lunged at the priest.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAe9E042l771
Stepping back Tulcakelume evade the attack effortlessly 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAX8rjgTjzRN
“Do not touch me you filthy little brute” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANADWgVGLbKQs
“Filthy I admit I have been in this forest for a few days but, wait why am I explaining to you I gonna pound you.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAILJx0Qex7x
In the trees above watching intently slowly moving closer bow at ready, Sivir watched the exchange of human and high elf. Destroyer of the forest and the simple humans both were a problem to deal with. Humans were simple creatures with their tinkering and struggle to live. Still they are not to be underestimated they can use magics and are adept fighters of many weapons. High elves are always at odds with the dark elves, high elves with powerful arcane magics have always been a threat to the balance of nature that the dark elves thrive in.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAa0RFfJjUGt
Wait and see was always the dark elf nature, so Sivir moved through the trees closer, keeping her bow at a constant ready slowly through the trees. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA1XA8Xv2snL
Further out in the forest after a few moments upon entering the forest now hopelessly lost Cyable wondered around tired after using magic for carry things in her robes for so long she now realized how heavy all the vials she carried really were, the thick robes themselves did not make anything any better, she was hot and frustrated at being lost. Worse she had told no one where she was going and would not be noticed missing for a day or two long enough for things to get much worse. Deep in her thoughts she had not noticed the shadow following her. From the darkness it lunged a beast a bear maybe it was large enough 8ft the sound of the beast startled Cyable she looked in time to see the beast lung towards her, she lunged out of the way and reached under her robes for a vile.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAotGdJLDUiE
Tulcakelume moved left and right as if dancing dodging the punches of Loraaga.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOv99gmbjmx
“Do you not grow tired of this pointless aggression” asked Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyXg4c63ngw
“Then stop moving and let me hit you” retorted Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAbFEAb5IX8g
“Would it not be better for you to draw your weapon” asked Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAVHQrlVEP3K
“Attack an unarmed opponent I might not be a knight but I have some pride, sides I don’t need no weapon to stop you”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARjxRCnOPyS
Sigh “she is an interesting being if she were not human she would be an honorable addition to the guard’ thought Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANABCMpVBxExk
The explosion that echoed through the trees knocked Loraaga flying into the arms of Tulcakelume, Sivir above also lost her footing and came falling to the ground caught by a vine her head inches from the ground. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4NryLuNfKa
Cyable would have thought this was a strange sight to see human in the arms of a high elf and a dark elf hanging upside down in front of them, had she not been running from the strange beast that had survived the explosion from the vile she had thrown at it. Before anyone could form the words to say the shadow of the beast landed in front of Cyable, a loud growl and a lunge as the beast was about to make contact with Cyable it was stopped short by the fist of the fighter. As those fist would have worked on a human or an elf but this beast was not so easily toppled moved but for the most part uninjured. With a sweep of its large limbs Loraaga was sent rolling back stopping at the feet of Tulcakelume. Tulcakelume glowing was prepared to dispatch the beast. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANACTZohkVNIi
Suddenly the trees limbs entangled the beast vines restraining its limbs roots wrapping around its legs and torso. Cyable collapsed to her knees and breathed a sigh of relief1103Please respect copyright.PENANASgPxig70uI
…thank the goddess” she whispered.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAW29CBwUqu8
“What the hell is a Hellvan war bear doing in the forest” asked Loraaga as she got to her feet1103Please respect copyright.PENANAq9Kbwqy2A2
The question is what were you thinking attacking it with bare hands, how is it that you humans are not extinct I will never know” said Tulcakelume “well dark one aren’t you going to come down we already know you are there the natural magic was your doing was it not. I find it hard to believe that your kind would help another race.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAU3npfl6Kgi
“I did not do it to save you I did It to save the bear from you, destroyer” whispered Sivir from the shadow of leaves near the base of the tree she had fallen from.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtpM4AvGC9E
“Cloak of nature magic is it not very good but impressive she can use it.” Thought Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXAX0K6Fuyv
Tulcakelume steadied Loraaga who was still slightly shaken from the blow from the beast. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjC1ZbKod2g
“T thank you” she mumbled embarrassed at receiving help from her opponent.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJ9W9MTOljy
“Thank you all for!” stumbling over still not quite composed after having run in her already tired state as she tumbled she righted herself. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAU2W2vp2jaT
“Thank you for saving me” she said1103Please respect copyright.PENANAD6tPFjcsSD
“Thank the human and the darkling over there for saving you!” said holding Loraaga and motioning to the dark elf hiding in the leaves.1103Please respect copyright.PENANADjJRSfghPe
Sivir was never good with other even her own kind she felt most peaceful with the trees of ancient and the creatures of the forest, being thanked by someone was unusual for her much less a human. She felt unease which was only intensified when the human dropped her robes revealing an ample chest and smooth curved figure in a dress that hugged to the body tightly accentuating her curves that could not be seen under the thick robes of a sage.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjL57L8g05o
“I can breathe again” said as she stepped out of the pile of heavy robes at her feet.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA6vcwrbLHOf
“Why do you wear those robes if you have no magic?” asked Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAZT67tfYw4g
“How did you know I did not have magic!?” asked a clearly shocked Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0A9ePJ2WYI
“If you had magic those robes would be as comfortable as you desire and as light” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4s8V2WPTV7
“Yes…I have lost my magic, I was in the forest searching for a special herb to help me get back my magic” said Cyable almost in a whisper.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA8r16dD7ZIB
“Before we go any further I think we should do something about this bear” said Tulcakelume a glow to his hand as he stepped from Loraaga towards the bear.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAVVB5s03XE4
Sivir had been captivated by the human since she had removed her robes, her kind were not so …well-endowed the human she saw before her was beautiful she skin light and smooth her short green hair, the sweat glistening off her skin making her seem so angelic. Sivir had to force the goddess from her mind 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAo7lwK2lzLb
“Stop Destroyer!!” shouted Sivir coming from behind her cover of leaves bow drawn and trained on the high elf.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAftFGOtU76l
“I will not allow a high elf to spill more blood in the forest!” said Sivir as she looked up at the high elf, she could not shake the thought that they were only called high elves because they were so tall.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPJJaGOhz5i
The glowing of Tulcakelume’s hand grew brighter “a darkling points a weapon at me well that cannot be allowed.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGOZrsZCzUL
Loraaga behind Tulcakelume could only see there was a glowing in front of the high elf, knowing nothing of magic she moved closer to see, a slight limp in her step.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAFTJrvEDXt7
Cyable ran in between the two elves 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAwr860Ep7jp
“Wait wait!! There is no reason for violence between one another over a bear that is of no threat to us”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAM7m7sNMkCs
“This is not about the bear anymore this is about a darkling threatening a high elf priest” said Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcCjkGNzSR0
Cyable moved closer to Sivir “what would the council of high elves say about a high elf threatening a human.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA7c2KkLmZ64
Loraaga bumped into Tulcakelume who placed a glowing hand on her 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAKIMCDd9NDx
“Who is threatening “1103Please respect copyright.PENANAqbjrYjVCcc
There was a flash Loraaga closed her eyes, Cyable jumped onto Sivir shielding her from the light. As suddenly as the light appeared it vanished. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANApITePzMZED
What the hell was that!” Loraaga shouted1103Please respect copyright.PENANAHQrU4h7j55
“How is your leg?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4aDfI7NGGS
“My wha hey it feels great” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAoY0zANajzC
“Good well now that we are all happy I am Findecano Tulcakelume of the High Elf Priesthood who are all of you”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA03OHlH5Dj4
“Loraaga, Loraaga Tarmikos”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARiUy08XLuD
“I am Cyable Ceres of the Ferradas magical academy”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjGEGTy6utZ
“And what of you darkling you could pry yourself from the human to tell us your name” asked Tulcakelume.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3yasWQY65V
To Cyable’s embarrassment she had the small dark elf buried in her ample chest, she released the elf 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAIjhOUYt2BA
“I am so sorry are you alright” asked Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANAiQ9xtqNP5Q
“I I am fine” stuttered the elf1103Please respect copyright.PENANAd5AiupCrca
Dark as her skin was she could not hide her blushing face, drawing her green hood over her face 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA5LhhG0vhuq
“I am Sivir of the Forest” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXunqITvtZi
“Of the forest?” wondered Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANApW1cD0qZ9k
“Yes of the forest hum...Loraaga, darklings take their names from the forests that they live in” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAWzc7lIxLzs
“Now that we are all acquainted what shall be done about the bear” asked Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXOPf6YlTw1
“Indeed it is a powerful beast to survive that blast and keep going” said Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0y0ZeHVMOj
That was you but I thought Tul said you couldn’t use magic” said Loraaga rubbing her leg still surprised it felt so normal 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3PQxGYXiy3
Cyable walked over to her robes and picked them up she pulled out one of the vials similar to the one she had earlier. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAumNCLMHU3e
These are magic crystalized I would not venture into the forest completely unarmed”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsgGkt2UM4o
“So you carry around bombs with you?” asked Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANATWLO1BEI37
“They are perfectly safe these vials are very strong see” Cyable holds up a clearly cracked vial 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAeoyeDvg0qK
Loraaga backed away “I see”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAE3fYTh9Jd6
Clearing his throat “the bear” Tulcakelume muttered1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjkGsklUBUK
“Leave the bear it means no harm it was only just escaped from a warband and was cautious it means us no harm” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAH98itXdWFc
“It just tried to eat Cyable” countered Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAKORWJk0YtP
“It only intended to scare her it had not expected her to try to blow it up so it though she was from the warband and might have been sent to capture it.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANASBJB1eKzDE
“Will it try to eat me again if we free it” asked Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANApXz7zmlrVv
“You intend to free this beast again?” asked Tulcakelume with a look of something less than frustration maybe curiosity1103Please respect copyright.PENANAzHZu7g4Uvq
These humans really are a strange race to release that which only moments ago tried to kill them, this is nothing like the descriptions of humans behavior or the ones I met thirty years ago have they changed so much in that blink of an eye. Thought Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAwSf0vC0Igj
“It will not attack us” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPquQ7VAw6Z
Cyable took a step towards the bear1103Please respect copyright.PENANAaOgW6ssiI3
“I think we should let it go it only attacked because I tried to kill it”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAHi9QW6Gq1y
“It attacked you” said Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAaB6zZPCRSe
“I shall have the forest release it” said Sivir 1103Please respect copyright.PENANANy2WiQbbYP
At her words the roots and vines binding the war bear receded back to the forest floor and trees, as the magic was dispelled Tulcakelume watched carefully, Loraaga also took a defensive stance.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAf44zalVlho
Upon being released the bear pounced on Cyable wrapping the unsuspecting mage into a bear hug Loraaga charged straight out from behind Tulcakelume but was stopped by one of the elf’s hands 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGETTfBAXUR
“What are you doing it’s gonna kill er!!”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXB4rtwlEvB
“It’s alright look” said Tulcakelum1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOjxZf8IZ5n
Looking ahead she saw the mage still in the bears grasp but laughing as the large beast licked her and rubbed its head against her face.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA6CyXbu4PjD
“Calm down” giggled Cyable as the fur tickled her thighs arms and midriff.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA767Ojh0BWG
“It will stay wishes to help you and...” Sivir blushed “will you be his mate”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA63m0yWfVwQ
“I am happy to accept its help but we barely know each other to be intimate” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJcE0mfdTLu
“This one is might be some kinda freak” thought Tulcakelume and Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOuqHAG5NIf
Sivir was blushing even brighter.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAm9uaPupoy3
“Well now that that’s over I will be on my way.” Said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAdmstjRrjna
“Wait a minute you we still have a score to settle” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAwCyzmaGwBv
“Really? I thought it was already settle since this incident saved you “said Tulcakelume still walking away 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAq8WI214xO9
Loraaga raced towards Tulcakelume as soon as she was able to touch him he turned around and placed a glowing hand on her head. Loraaga collapsed to her knees 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPbgc4lu7Ng
“What are you doing to her” yelled Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOQiq6sIaAh
The bear and Sivir taking defensive positions in front of the scantily clad mage.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4RXjrNaTjG
“Nothing just settling a score from what I understand when you defeat a human you enslave them as servants in exchange for not killing them” said Tulcakelume almost absentmindedly1103Please respect copyright.PENANAI3JU5euLcc
“I have no idea where you learned that but that is wrong even warriors choose death over slavery” said Loraaga standing up1103Please respect copyright.PENANAb1SuDNxqLF
“Sit” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyywlLLxNz3
Loraaga sat 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA56iwFpZKbt
“Still works” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANANzvLKUYdX0
“Stop that” Loraaga yelled “I am not your slave you never beat me”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyQQbCbDOMQ
“Me having my hand on your head is enough to warrant a defeat, now be silent”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsWELsSN3Fs
“This is why high elves cannot be trusted “said Sivir readying an arrow1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJUtNRbvxVR
“Wait Sivir you too bear” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA6mZSUad3tI
“He says his name is Uther” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAYTFAgPb88L
“Oh Uther, Sivir stop I don’t want any fighting” said Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANA2SY7gpBqTc
Uther moved back closer to Cyable and Sivir lowered her bow slowly1103Please respect copyright.PENANAWR3HrZn5tU
“There is no reason to enslave anyone her Tulcakelume.” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAZZahhPOjYc
“I don’t think you have the right to say that I do not know what magic you used to control the darkling and the beast, but you are no different from me. Said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAn9NfgYKyF7
“What are you talking about?” said Cyable a confused look on her face1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOwjuNSX68x
“The bear is intelligent or so it would appears, and if what the darkling said is true it wishes to serve you for saving it, but the darkling follows your command as well and for a while now has looked to be having some illness” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAasr6eImZi7
Cyable looked at Sivir who was looking confused, but as soon as she met eyes with Cyable her dark skin turned red once more and quickly looked away1103Please respect copyright.PENANAFUmmjjodL5
Cyable went over to Sivir and placed a hand on the elf’s forehead 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOijCvJrYLk
“You are sick you have a fever we must get back to the academy “1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJWUzLq4UO7
“I I I am fine” whispered Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAt5SItsn6xw
“Nonsense we will go to the academy all of us” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAg2bX10vwky
Shrugging Tulcakelume agreed 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAg4CWezQ2Qn
“Now how do we get out of this forest?” asked Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANAVwS2UjC2MZ
1103Please respect copyright.PENANARXpZ8EMtRL
“…….”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAMxOG6mWvFL
1103Please respect copyright.PENANARVxqw2xvJN
Back at Ferradas academy in one of the rooms made large through a spell of space provided by the academy the 5 now sat, Cyable had brought tea and biscuits she had baked earlier. Aside from magic Cyable enjoyed the magic of baking. Now gathered the group was to explain what led them all to this point. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANABVvmYu3DWw
“thank you again Sivir for guiding us back even though it was to take care of you I had you lead us back.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4jY3QLBLl1
“It was no trouble dame Cyable” said Sivir looking down to avoid the young mages eyes1103Please respect copyright.PENANAlY02HtBws2
“Since we are all here I have something for you Uther I made it a while back when I was trying to learn the languages of the east” Cyable came out with a small capsule. Uther tilted his large head1103Please respect copyright.PENANAo6aTr3MNRM
“This is a language capsule swallow it and give me a kiss” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAKb5XSRwz5U
Sivir choked on one of the cookies she had been eating, she drained her tea in one gulp to clear her throat forgetting that it was hot and choking once more.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3IxDpFYtxK
Cyable brought Sivir some water and patted the elf gently on the back when she had calmed down she continued1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGAau5WhBF5

“So that is why a kiss” said Tulcakelume nodding his head 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAizgpaJxEAr

Loraaga made a wordless shout, a mix of fear anger and confusion on her face.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9oosgS2YoW
“Why so surprised it’s not like you live that long to regret fifty to eighty years and its over”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAQnXRgL51XB
“That is quite cruel of you we have such short lives in your eyes and you would rob her freedom in that brief time” said Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA2rI9IagUA5
“Fine I shall undo the commands I have given and as long as she behaves I will not use any commands on her, though I must say I am interested to see how strong my control on her is” a glimmer in his eye1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsapuhXulwc
Loraaga felt a chill run down her spine, what is the elf going to do to me she wondered 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAk1eYrDjN26
“Do as you wish” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAW7njYL8LIP
“Ah...I can speak now” said Loraaga a slight hesitation in her voice1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4eZaYvL4Fk
“Yes for now, back to the topic at hand this medicine does it work” asked Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3SZwFSg3Od
“Betri en buist, not only did I learn the language but it is permanent as well” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAbIk6Pk5qpU
“I see impressive” said Loraaga “but why a kiss?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAKamaGivb4v
“Moving on” said Tulcakelume “I want to see if this will actually work “1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJNqWMKg0Ez
“As am I, I have never tried it on a none human before”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9RIObLWdit
Cyable went to Uther who was sitting on his haunches and was still taller than the mage. She tipped and paused she realized she was not sure how to do this1103Please respect copyright.PENANAffm17VtHRn
“Uther stick out your tongue”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3T7gNEVMMO
Uther complied 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAl2EwFZT9yQ
“Now swallow”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAmsLjguwl80
Uther swallowed the pill on his tongue1103Please respect copyright.PENANAsmCBvDnprh
“Now give me a kiss”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAQcSa2wjEsC
Sivir stood up straight and watched intently blushing bright red.1103Please respect copyright.PENANABdJH9iSkwt
Uther in one motion licked the mage from her chin to the top of her head at one point lifting the mage of the ground.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAVJnq2HhfIB
“Well that was interesting” said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANAkEw0PvhaXj
This time it was Loraaga’s turn to choke 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAZeZjWcSFPM
“The bear it it talks” said Loraaga between breaths1103Please respect copyright.PENANAqsWXqAW0DB
“Yes and quite well I must admit” said Uther 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtP0GRCWPos
Sivir was beside Cyable helping to clean of her face with a cloth.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXbY14mcrUy
“I am glad it works I need to make a note of this as well” said Cyable as she let herself be cleaned 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAX4mn6EFZCk
“What was a war bear like you doing in that forest?” asked Loraaga “a war bear is not seen only until an attack is to be made so why were you in this area?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3iyR5k95Hs
“Yes you are correct and a nasty bit of business that is as well, I was part of a warband not a large group but reasonable about hundred strong, I was one of the thirty warbears that they had. The band was a group of deserters and rebels from one of the armies of the north, they had been looting and pillaging villages. One village they attacked was visited by a high elf. When we attacked the elf hit us warbears with some spell that increased our intellect.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA06yTROmZ47
“So we turn on out masters and saved the village but most of us were killed the few of us survived went our separate ways I came to the forest here where I got lost and then I ran into you all.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcZdEyPA1N4
“You have had a hard time until now Uther” said Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAr4u3C1KHqu
“Not really until the spell I was perfectly fine and even after the forest provided food shelter and peace in a way, and now I have met you and I have a new master and a kind one as well.” Said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANApIyWvcpeK7
“You are a smooth talker for a bear” muttered Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANARYJEEpgA74
“Fear not lady Sivir I have no intention of coming between you and”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9TSQPUT0yM
“Wh wh what are you saying!” shouted Sivir surprising all in the room. Sivir looked around and tried to hide herself in her hood once again and moved back in to a corner of the room.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnYeCAiGnvf
“Well I know Sivir lives in the forest and you know I was looking for a herb to restore my magic, so may I inquire what Loraaga and priest Tulcakelume were doing in the forest.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAml4aRptqpD
“I was …hunting a bit” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtAqAwnebXN
“I was sent here for enlightenment” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0wdlpclrPP
“What does that mean?” asked Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAg2XaNzwAaD
“You will see soon enough since you are coming with me”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAhifquU2a1C
“Oh….wait What?!” exclaimed Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4ewv6bejoG
“Well you are my servant as of recently so it’s no surprise you will follow me where I go”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARhkDuVB9Xe
“But you said I was free!”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAxrmk98cv9Q
“I said I would not give you any commands but I never said you were free, after all the spell is permanent unless we someone strong enough is willing to help dispel it.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAHWYNnIZw5x
“You” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnCeO98OI6w
“That is lord Tulcakelume to you”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGmSdPjYdVq
“Ok that’s enough stop toying with her” said Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAILeYyhNkrb
“Fine I see you seem to have come to some understanding of me sage” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANATJetBo4GEt
“Indeed you are not an evil person but you do have some dark shadows about you”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAodswtT6aY0
“He is the destroyer, he is evil he just hides it behind all the light of priesthood” said Sivir 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAu8UC8khM3L
“Why do you call him that” asked Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANAC439CJsClz
“Yeah you said that in the forest too” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANA7NdLdvnCO1
“Indeed I was concerned when I was bound that one of you was called destroyer” said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9S8Kv6S7gx
“It is a rather ominous title” said Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANAkUw3OGXxV5
“It should be I burned down one of these darklings forest seventy years ago during the last part of the war. I believe it was Sherent.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3EN0zFzuOU
“You burnt down Sherent!!” exclaimed Cyable “that was one of the largest of the dark elves forest” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAwv4RCd8nwf
“Yes I was young and eager to test my power and make a name for myself amongst the elders so I went and burned it to the ground. It was to be one of my greatest achievements but I was too eager and well as you can see the forest is no more and has yet to begin to return. I spent the last 50 years trying to find a way to revive it.” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcWBmaauwjP
“What of the elves of the forest” Loraaga asked1103Please respect copyright.PENANAzRvH9sWpAk
“Many were killed but most escaped, it was not a spell to kill them just to get them into the open to kill them, their natural magic is too powerful in the forest, and it would have taken us years to fight them.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAUGDW5BbUMU
“You sound like you would have won from the beginning” said Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAHjpp4Dl1ak
“We would they were stubborn and refused to”1103Please respect copyright.PENANASHHXqh0r33
“Refused to submit to your rule to let you do as you wish with us and our homes or lives!” hissed Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAQTddUQTJv6
“Had you surrendered you would be free now and still have your precious forest” said Tulcakelume calmly1103Please respect copyright.PENANAoXj6mgFSah
“You monster!” said Sivir as she readied her bow 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA2UwkPosYhw
“Defend”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnCQhaKqO9V
Loraaga jumped in front of Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANACvhfOLUoJ2
“Whoops I am not to do that anymore, stand down Loraaga” said Tulcakelume “let me say this darkling before you go trying to kill me that this human here is linked to me if I die she dies1103Please respect copyright.PENANA7tD8MJ97Q7
“WHAT!” Loraaga exclaimed1103Please respect copyright.PENANAgRu7TiPjop
“Yes forgot to mention that well what do you say” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAuqc5BS12D7
“She is one human” Sivir said as she pulled her bow back as far as she could1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGKoG0dLBwY
“Sivir!” Cyable cried in surprise1103Please respect copyright.PENANAX7uJiVz0ct
“Well darkling you are worse than me at least I did it during a war even tried to fix it, but you driven by anger and hate would kill an innocent even a human what would you do if it were Cyable shoot her first maybe” Tulcakelume asked 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAgI9RLaXYYH
“Enough!” Uther roared “I am the only beast here and you are all acting like animals, Tulcakelume I know you have no intention of letting anyone be harmed here but stop attacking lady Sivir because of some grudge from the past”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAVoH1KkdiNl
Tulcakelume raised his hands in mock defeat “to think taught civility by a beast” he said with a smile1103Please respect copyright.PENANAYF63040hi4
1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOwlXAaSjjN
“Lady Sivir do not take his taunts seriously he is not an evil man…mostly” said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtS1dAgIlIR
Sivir lowered her bow “I am sorry Loraaga, I “1103Please respect copyright.PENANAhiErmsDFFj
“No worries I am still in one piece and not filled with holes so all good” said Loraaga relieved the bow was no longer pointed at Tulcakelume and in extension her.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAAb9smuqPcs
“I had heard priests were the kindest and gentlest beings of this land second only to the fairies” said Cyable.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAmfgjRMLlWm
“Yes we all have exceptions, but indeed I have been rather cruel and I am sorry Ms. Sivir”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAhhDS7dbQjQ
For a moment the room was silent all were shocked by this apology.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcJXriEycqw
Clearing her throat Cyable asked now that we have all calmed down maybe I can ask she thought1103Please respect copyright.PENANAxpzFVeJEwi
“I would like to ask for your help in searching for a herb to make a potion to restore my magic”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAuTnDbPYDmc
“Fine we will go with you” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANA1MSz77ufzT
“Whose we?” asked Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAK2gkL3MGw5
“Why we is you and I after all what servant would leave her master alone and unarmed in a forest” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXWDPbc31KT
“I am going to get you for this one day” she muttered1103Please respect copyright.PENANAMccqNTPUCT
“Uther you can rest here you had a terrible day and”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAltvQiwoSwd
“I am fine dame Cyable I am a war bear after all I would be honored to go as well as Miss Sivir”1103Please respect copyright.PENANASg3kIPE1KV
“Is that true Sivir?” Cyable asked 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAv5oCRY3fAW
Sivir nodded in response. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAuxRODL7DGO
“Thank you all! When we get back I shall make you dinner a feast?” said Cyable cheerfully1103Please respect copyright.PENANAqo6lN11Z1Y
1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtW3cCtAVfT
Back in the forest the party moves Loraaga clearing a path in front of Tulcakelume, Cyable followed by Uther keeping a watchful eye on the mage and listening to the surroundings. Sivir was in the trees moving from tree to tree in the canopy leading the party from above.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAAFjpSSczSW
“Let us rest for a while” said Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGqOaf6wuyZ
“Tired already master Tulca” asked Loraaga mockingly1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOCNUsiyPhw
“No but you and lady Cyable are”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4LMsgH3YUT
“I am fine Tulcakelume” said Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9GGBmCxgF0
“I agree with Tulcakelume” added Uther “Your steps have been uneasy for the last league and you are carrying that heavy weapon and those robes, it would worry Ms. Sivir greatly if you were to collapse.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAL6RdYWQuq3
“Fine, thank you I shall take up your offer.” Cyable said while resting against Uther.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAReIksHkVoK
“Sivir come down Sivir”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA6qzO31Wwcx
From the trees came a soft pat the sound of Sivir gently landing nearby. As she approached, Tulcakelume asked1103Please respect copyright.PENANArVzjDWg2fk
“Are there any animals nearby?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAY1Ag3toYn3
“No they have all scattered”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAdOWvgFHXC8
“Good” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAmUgIvOHYct
With a move of his hand they began to glow and with the lowering the trees plants leaves and debris in a perfect circle blew away leaving a clearing where the party stood.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAFw2lVFb8Z8
“Now we rest” he said1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXRwukKZStI
“You can do that and you had me cutting branches and vines for you the whole time.” Said Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnfRN75b2t6
“Yes I did but if you are mad be mad at the darkling who can command the vines themselves” said Tulcakelume enjoying himself1103Please respect copyright.PENANA4HXZj7ECYl
Loraaga looked at Sivir who quickly looked away1103Please respect copyright.PENANA2BevgrFFmY
“Sivir, you could do that the whole time?” asked Loraaga a angry vein on her forehead throbbing 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA8LlMFPVt87
“Yes but natural magics are not to be used trivially, as my mother taught me” said Sivir still not meeting Loraaga’s eyes 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjoGY6BXSVe
“Tell that to all these scratches and cut and I am pretty sure I have a few branches wedged in me all over” said a defeated Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANASgF7dUiwfP
“I always wonder how you humans moved everywhere with that armor and soft skin but I see you are rather resilient creatures” said Uther shaking of leaves from his body 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAkdT2R573hx
“Though I am glad to have my fur”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAdgDc305fmI
“Come here” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGHQt5faFta
Loraaga shuffled tiredly over to Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnneFiEzJwr
“What master” asked Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANANu8xd08n9y
He placed a hand on Loraaga she felt a tingle and realized that all the scrapes and bruises on her had healed and she was feeling less exhausted 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtc2lA8Vhly
“Thank you master…Stop making me call you master!!”1103Please respect copyright.PENANASuA7DYf41c
Tulcakelume laughed “I have not had this much fun in years since ahh I can’t remember”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAGAGhMQLS4d
Still rubbing the spots that no longer itched or ached Loraaga looked at Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAbcaXSJJkdz
“Didn’t you say you would stop controlling me” she pressed1103Please respect copyright.PENANAWW1nNB5mmV
“And I have for the most part, I have not given you any orders except to clear a path for us”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAI3fV2v4Tym
Loraaga looked stunned 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXDIy1uglax
“Indeed Tulcakelume has not given you any orders since we left the house” said Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANAgLKC6dqffj
“Exactly lady Cyable, he did not stop the earlier command to have her call him master” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAxmQdhedTu6
“Remove the command master!” said Loraaga 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAgem1e8ereW
“Indeed Tulcakelume, remove the command it must be terrible being controlled” said Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANAEPRXPlHWCW
“Call Cyable great sage” said Tulcakelume with a smile1103Please respect copyright.PENANAbi0bHlVWeG
“Great Sage Cyable stop him” Loraaga said1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0th59pDVE2
Cyable had a look of pure bliss on her face1103Please respect copyright.PENANA5gh67Ehc0z
“….Great Sage Cyable?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA9gFvniC3NB
“Maybe it’s not so bad to leave things as they are for a little longer” said Cyable still glowing1103Please respect copyright.PENANANFee0BUaAn
Sivir and Uther looked at each other slightly confused and looked back at the sage who was glowing.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0owQ0eSQBB
Loraaga sat down and gave up 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA3eUaE89KLU
“I think you should get some sleep Loraaga” said Tulcakelume 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAjFVQe8wFXS
With a sigh Loraaga lay down to sleep1103Please respect copyright.PENANAfKsFbQ1GnG
After a few minutes if silence 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAYSTb3Si7eX
“I think I will turn in for the night as well” said Cyable 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAB3UeyRk3TZ
“If you do not mind fur I can offer you a warm place to sleep as well” said Uther as he lay on his stomach 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPl7ZQwhoLq
“Thank you Uther, Sivir would you like to join us”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA18rJyEebPq
Unable to speak the dark elf pulled her hood over her face and nodded1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyL9HiRSz0v
“If you do not mind would you let Loraaga sleep with you as well” asked Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANATqLHV6Ck5h
“I am big enough for all” 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAOkC0MKIuHD
Nodding Tulcakelume gently and swiftly scooped up the sleeping fighter and placed her on the side of Uther beside Cyable who carefully laid Loraaga’s head against Uther.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJnx3052yQb
“Is it alright for us to be taking this break after all I am taking up your time?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJBGnBGvTda
Cyable was cut off by Tulcakelume who raised a hand1103Please respect copyright.PENANAlL3xZgfHe9
“Haste in this forest will only lead to misfortune” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANA5BCirRlgk5
Cyable smiled and nodded gratitude then rested her head against Uther who was already asleep. The gentle rise and fall of his massive being breathing gently lulled Cyable to sleep. Sivir watched the sleeping sage for a while before also drifting off to sleep.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAE1uoA3GGsi
When all had fallen asleep Tulcakelume moved over to the fire and began to think about the past few days.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAcgb1l3XaGv
In less than a month he had met two humans, a warbear and a dark elf he had learned much that was not noted in the libraries of the high elves. He had learned of the results of spell on war beast and the still simmering grudge of the dark elves, he had also found that binding a human to his will was far easier than he had expected and that not all humans were greedy untrustworthy beings bent on conquest. Still in the time he has been with his new found companions he was not able to comprehend why the elders had sent him to this forest. Did they predict this meeting, was it a test to see if he could survive in the forest. Well for the moment he could find no threat in his companions even the dark elf though she was still suspicious and cautious of him she seemed more concerned with the young mage. Once more he understood why Uther was or should be attached to Cyable but the darkling, yes she was helped but this devotion is unusual and for an elf to be this devote to a human is unheard of.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA2TElCYGy9z
Tulcakelume looked behind him to see Loraaga stirring in her sleep, he had seen this before when the fighter slept she would soon start to thrash about and sweat profusely signs of a nightmare a trauma that runs deep, though it would be a short while before Tulcakelume would learn the cause, he had found that holding her hand calmed her completely by accident. 1103Please respect copyright.PENANAK9sTKsCEHc
Two nights ago as the others slept Tulcakelume had been awoken by the sounds of struggle he moved to see what it was the source of the sound was Loraaga thrashing wildly on a bed of leaves mumbling Sivir was watching as well but was not sure what to do. Tulcakelume had gone close to hear what she was saying when he attempted to place a hand on the fighter’s head she held it and clung to Tulcakelume and her thrashing stopped and her breathing became rhythmic and relaxed. Tulcakelume knew the symptoms of this from victims of war and horrible crimes. He would stay with her for the rest of the night.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAumSY5wzZ70
“Is she possessed?” Sivir asked Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAL7OQNUbNC2
“In a sense yes, she is haunted by something from her past. I do not know what but it must have been terrible for her.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARyDRU539vs
“Is there a way to help her?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAUt9nNaWsGY
“Do you still remember why you distrust me?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAlelpTNaHow
“You burned down my home and killed my people”1103Please respect copyright.PENANARpzrdBTUny
“Are you able to forget?”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAPgnByg6DOh
“I will never forget”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAbaBuMeDAbU
“That is the same for this one here”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAzW3isUeztA
Sivir and Tulcakelume were silent for a time, the silence was broken by Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAhsZahXtMhj
“When she rises I will ask her what”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAvgFT2PGyDH
“I do not think you should interfere you have already enslaved her I don’t think she wants you in her past as well” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAQS0aeD8se6
“The sooner I know the sooner I can make her forget”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAKRifJPySLw
“You high elves think you have the right to tamper with the minds of others, is nothing sacred to you” snapped Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAuE7Mi4ojGI
“Would you rather see her tear herself apart every night instead darkling”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnWiFw6RKZ1
“I never, no but this is her trial not our”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAoUCKA8fGcx
“I believe it would be better to wait till she brings it up herself” said Uther 1103Please respect copyright.PENANApHNOajTY5R
“Did we wake you Uther my apologies” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAAHrrV6SXdr
“I have been awake from Loraaga started to moan, I covered dame Cyable’s ears when Sivir moved” said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANAusrZpXWK9K
“So you think we should leave her be as well Uther” asked Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAL1pX0GA9Ld
“For the moment you seem to have her calmed, I agree with Sivir but I also agree with you. I believe we should wait and if this continues then we ask” said Uther1103Please respect copyright.PENANAK2uOu81pJK
Sivir nodded 1103Please respect copyright.PENANA8yNcRYV22p
“Very well, Sivir might I ask you to take over watch I seem to be restrained” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANABPBfy9GYbu
Sivir nodded once more1103Please respect copyright.PENANARwy2NrnMd4
With a chant a tree root raised to support Tulcakelume’s back as he was held by Loraaga1103Please respect copyright.PENANAr0AO2NNNZx
“…Thank you”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAYWUbXMJI32
“I did it for the human” said Sivir1103Please respect copyright.PENANAtmI6x2Kx9A
1103Please respect copyright.PENANAXZlAdUMV9V
Now again he finds Loraaga in the throes of a nightmare once more Tulcakelume embraces her and holds her firmly. The thrashing calmed.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAgd0BwXpkZi
When morning came Loraaga found herself once more in the arms of her master, two nights ago she had jumped from his arms shouting what had he done. This time after she instead relaxed in stayed where she was for a few more minutes.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAT7uxToVuFs
“How do you feel this morning” Tulcakelume asked1103Please respect copyright.PENANARxtXsU8QMO
“Y y you knew I was awake” she stammered1103Please respect copyright.PENANATAtEG48r76
“Yes I can tell the difference in your breathing, I am glad you have controlled yourself this morning.”1103Please respect copyright.PENANAZ89oxwQDVv
Loraaga quickly got to her feet1103Please respect copyright.PENANAnKpTNi3Efp
“I’m gonna get some eats…y you want any” she asked timidly1103Please respect copyright.PENANAyqs9UM0wCs
What is wrong with me, he knows I have nightmares and every morning for the last 3 days I wake up in his arms… and I don’t mind it, I don’t mind it at all. Loraaga cursed herself as she waited for Tulcakelume’s answer1103Please respect copyright.PENANAfdx0AmIRwt
Tulcakelume had also noticed changes in her behavior, in the mornings when she wakes she is timid almost defenseless. Was this a reaction to the nightmares, was her mind weakening? He wondered.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA73os55ir7E

Cyable was sitting on her robe spread over a blanket of leaves, Sivir was sleeping peacefully her head on Cyable’s lap, the mage gently stroking her hear, she looked up to see Loraaga and Tulcakelume .1103Please respect copyright.PENANAJwPTJl24w5
“Good morning. I hope you slept well Sivir has just gone to sleep and Uther went to catch something for breakfast. Can I ask you to start a fire for me, when Uther gets back I will cook breakfast.” She said1103Please respect copyright.PENANA8bpE1lZ3A2
As she was talking Sivir rolled over half asleep she hugged Cyable1103Please respect copyright.PENANATh2j8MAZmx
“Sivir dear are you alright”1103Please respect copyright.PENANA0ljblUbIze
Sivir mumbles something before resting her head on Cyable’s chest and falling back to sleep1103Please respect copyright.PENANAoVIsqJcoR2
“I think it would be better if we made breakfast” said Tulcakelume1103Please respect copyright.PENANAiElQUUFqY6

The morning continued as normal Uther came back with 3 small birds and an unusually large boar. Loraaga prepared the meal leaving most of the boar for Uther. Sivir ate little she preferred to have certain herbs and shrooms that grew in the forest. Cyable ate part of one of the birds and some of Sivir’s shrooms which she said she had heard was a delicacy in a place to the east. Loraaga ate one whole bird with as much grace as Uther and his boar. Tulcakelume ate part of one of the birds with a knife and fork on a plate all summoned with magic.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAxClALbx4Op
The search for the herb continued this unusual group found that they got along very well for a group made under these unusual circumstances.1103Please respect copyright.PENANAUKKrxWtU3i

Cyable noted in her notes it has been a month and two days since I have met my companions the agile and ever vigilant night elf Sivir the kind and civil bear Uther. I also have spent time with the high elf Tulcakelume he is a strange person not evil but with a dark sense of humor. The fighter Loraaga, she is an unusual one I know little about her except that she has had a past full of adventure and uncertainty. Teachers have always said I am too trusting but I feel that these people are safe.1103Please respect copyright.PENANA7fAkRzuVeo
