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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAutXUypW0A
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxHFKlDZGP
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z23sHnyVY

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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnQkGv26si
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFch4arHL6V

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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiHjQpxj60

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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpzDn2r8lBo

In the hall of the high elf priesthood Tulcakelume stands before the leaders of the order.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPyTqV1wpo
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. “729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfN5fipCsbh
Many things happen High Priest said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDYtmhJzq7m
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ORjIShY1y
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”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFznRE9QpCi
‘Indeed you have guided them to that which is need to topple us’ whispered Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJP44EVFCsA
‘What was that’ asked the High Priest of the South. “We maybe old but these ears are a blessing of the goddess”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmZnJufqqq
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7UdthEDkxW
“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”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZSSOUurfv
“Foreign? I was there when we quelled the human wars I was there when we fought the Dark Elves back to their forests”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsdP6A4cZe
“You also burned a large portion of the forest” said the High Priest of the West.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrChwcWVF2
“That was an accident I was young” retorted Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaMpcruoQr
“But you did not try to stop the flames either” said the high Priest of the North729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtKbwgE2wW
“We were fighting them” Tulcakelume said729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw26zNV0b9i
“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”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQfhGmTWOAx
“Who are you calling elfling” shot Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO81z5Sof3
“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 North729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx60A1T7HbQ
“What is that supposed to teach me?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq3azzPf2pV
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEHKw49YJe
“Always playing around those old hats” thought Tulcakelume. “Where am I?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxn2UJ8nJme
“What the hell was that!?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtTKU5qZEt
Turning towards where the shout came from Tulcakelume there sat and angry Loraaga, less sat more bowled over.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCBH88kKpB
“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 Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyhk7ScdKD
“What seems to be the problem human” said Tulcakelume icily “I have no time for your short lived troubles, where am I”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUet0zu58GV
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjI6PF8qc7u
Stepping back Tulcakelume evade the attack effortlessly 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFo49nglRVb
“Do not touch me you filthy little brute” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe4r61TPzt
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzbZkKPRZO
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EThv1Hz4w
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s4ngUPFHw
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLyQi93pGS
Tulcakelume moved left and right as if dancing dodging the punches of Loraaga.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci1TnIcUQs
“Do you not grow tired of this pointless aggression” asked Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjN2iDoMCNw
“Then stop moving and let me hit you” retorted Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz23EhRzzqV
“Would it not be better for you to draw your weapon” asked Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJUnOObKXD
“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”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9sHCbeYUp
Sigh “she is an interesting being if she were not human she would be an honorable addition to the guard’ thought Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Rcr9b5SMt
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrZvvy005Z
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlN5p4dUkJR
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 relief729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡds4Z6NN4W1
…thank the goddess” she whispered.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaCW4PI0zS
“What the hell is a Hellvan war bear doing in the forest” asked Loraaga as she got to her feet729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohPSslAGY5
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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYyQt72ci3
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQfOSuCLoH
“Cloak of nature magic is it not very good but impressive she can use it.” Thought Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPX6dhZcHcs
Tulcakelume steadied Loraaga who was still slightly shaken from the blow from the beast. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPuNv6xLB7
“T thank you” she mumbled embarrassed at receiving help from her opponent.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtW81tiP1h
“Thank you all for!” stumbling over still not quite composed after having run in her already tired state as she tumbled she righted herself. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEsMWo31ws
“Thank you for saving me” she said729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1DrrH9DJB
“Thank the human and the darkling over there for saving you!” said holding Loraaga and motioning to the dark elf hiding in the leaves.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJS5SVg2ofj
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbaVnS8lpK
“I can breathe again” said as she stepped out of the pile of heavy robes at her feet.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3trpmcgkky
“Why do you wear those robes if you have no magic?” asked Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjOfHbj2Q85
“How did you know I did not have magic!?” asked a clearly shocked Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RSDLkqCr0
“If you had magic those robes would be as comfortable as you desire and as light” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIY4rrSlDSj
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv56fREaOq2
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQpGkYB35y
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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSU5AfJ4U9W
“Stop Destroyer!!” shouted Sivir coming from behind her cover of leaves bow drawn and trained on the high elf.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZigpG47bVd
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOH2SyxJQH
The glowing of Tulcakelume’s hand grew brighter “a darkling points a weapon at me well that cannot be allowed.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnZl8Ye6V4
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4qTPoLAgk
Cyable ran in between the two elves 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzo7DO3Arg6
“Wait wait!! There is no reason for violence between one another over a bear that is of no threat to us”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5dWfNrEt1
“This is not about the bear anymore this is about a darkling threatening a high elf priest” said Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotpWF4xr6Z
Cyable moved closer to Sivir “what would the council of high elves say about a high elf threatening a human.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oOAAd3zFG
Loraaga bumped into Tulcakelume who placed a glowing hand on her 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbn1uisTPy5
“Who is threatening “729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffOg90NSXw
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7GyN4kWQdE
What the hell was that!” Loraaga shouted729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnAX0p17Ow
“How is your leg?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FQuslt4U6
“My wha hey it feels great” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZeZjR25Xw
“Good well now that we are all happy I am Findecano Tulcakelume of the High Elf Priesthood who are all of you”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1STvFIAIir
“Loraaga, Loraaga Tarmikos”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHnh3W4GVZ1
“I am Cyable Ceres of the Ferradas magical academy”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpIvytBlZp
“And what of you darkling you could pry yourself from the human to tell us your name” asked Tulcakelume.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VZXMcGluO
To Cyable’s embarrassment she had the small dark elf buried in her ample chest, she released the elf 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjK8NocB5W
“I am so sorry are you alright” asked Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzGlXpGter
“I I am fine” stuttered the elf729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pGW4RBsQc
Dark as her skin was she could not hide her blushing face, drawing her green hood over her face 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtKE0zk37b
“I am Sivir of the Forest” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CKGSKA7CM
“Of the forest?” wondered Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrIkKaaTRS
“Yes of the forest hum...Loraaga, darklings take their names from the forests that they live in” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB2ldLT9dR
“Now that we are all acquainted what shall be done about the bear” asked Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULMuEgW1HU
“Indeed it is a powerful beast to survive that blast and keep going” said Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4EN29LAHbE
That was you but I thought Tul said you couldn’t use magic” said Loraaga rubbing her leg still surprised it felt so normal 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsnhEVVXq1
Cyable walked over to her robes and picked them up she pulled out one of the vials similar to the one she had earlier. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b8htALskS
These are magic crystalized I would not venture into the forest completely unarmed”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSzzMHeURE
“So you carry around bombs with you?” asked Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLKZnskRgE
“They are perfectly safe these vials are very strong see” Cyable holds up a clearly cracked vial 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1lhO158HT
Loraaga backed away “I see”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlCoUpvkzO
Clearing his throat “the bear” Tulcakelume muttered729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ928mpnK9ya
“Leave the bear it means no harm it was only just escaped from a warband and was cautious it means us no harm” said Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPTIxSpDVv
“It just tried to eat Cyable” countered Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjydUe1tule
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbifnAzzIrG
“Will it try to eat me again if we free it” asked Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOPfk40XBC
“You intend to free this beast again?” asked Tulcakelume with a look of something less than frustration maybe curiosity729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWAh5d8F2q5
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 Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUyco0jEqG
“It will not attack us” said Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZPEl8G1cu
Cyable took a step towards the bear729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfK3tr6CPxA
“I think we should let it go it only attacked because I tried to kill it”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqr78XESzA
“It attacked you” said Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWSgvP37am
“I shall have the forest release it” said Sivir 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntMbHfH3tu
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AMS8zpSVX
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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJOkWCp8j5
“What are you doing it’s gonna kill er!!”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7FA5JqpQb
“It’s alright look” said Tulcakelum729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pD3M5VP7O
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ocfQlQ9N2
“Calm down” giggled Cyable as the fur tickled her thighs arms and midriff.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vc5jGDQc5
“It will stay wishes to help you and...” Sivir blushed “will you be his mate”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWud7u1fEIs
“I am happy to accept its help but we barely know each other to be intimate” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdvt3MDbgN
“This one is might be some kinda freak” thought Tulcakelume and Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMaPT1TTg8
Sivir was blushing even brighter.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWH7e3VS47
“Well now that that’s over I will be on my way.” Said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUYgev0wOi
“Wait a minute you we still have a score to settle” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtefj67OCkJ
“Really? I thought it was already settle since this incident saved you “said Tulcakelume still walking away 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNQORewqQa
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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QPWFuTXDK
“What are you doing to her” yelled Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiURrzMtj0
The bear and Sivir taking defensive positions in front of the scantily clad mage.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7FzkOtZQZ
“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 absentmindedly729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0Bpk9LnjZ
“I have no idea where you learned that but that is wrong even warriors choose death over slavery” said Loraaga standing up729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVGGdagUzw
“Sit” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQaNrdGvHm
Loraaga sat 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7c0aMxqh3U
“Still works” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dlBd0pK4M
“Stop that” Loraaga yelled “I am not your slave you never beat me”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iPg8ynbuJ
“Me having my hand on your head is enough to warrant a defeat, now be silent”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnCz3yWiS7

“He says his name is Uther” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9hP7qxwuDV
“Oh Uther, Sivir stop I don’t want any fighting” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxd5NJqQOz6
Uther moved back closer to Cyable and Sivir lowered her bow slowly729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVx19f7MFZ
“There is no reason to enslave anyone her Tulcakelume.” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCzSpG0z5F
“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 Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirQHJjFxTf
“What are you talking about?” said Cyable a confused look on her face729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzpM6K7EvA
“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 Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzoVgB2tepY
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 away729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgi88qNzRCU
Cyable went over to Sivir and placed a hand on the elf’s forehead 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO7795s5xo
“You are sick you have a fever we must get back to the academy “729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxLvzsWRIw
“I I I am fine” whispered Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZb1EP2JCJ
“Nonsense we will go to the academy all of us” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqYT9ucrNL
Shrugging Tulcakelume agreed 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gs25nNv8J
“Now how do we get out of this forest?” asked Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUpz7hAzHR
729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rCk2KFhLl
“…….”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6SDJfbuC9
729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLY85lFVlEg
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYU30OmESIg
“thank you again Sivir for guiding us back even though it was to take care of you I had you lead us back.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4er8ZEmax
“It was no trouble dame Cyable” said Sivir looking down to avoid the young mages eyes729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5nBMtspuB
“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 head729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3y7DYsznF9

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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKwZbfdSKT
Cyable brought Sivir some water and patted the elf gently on the back when she had calmed down she continued729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqNkFJ44qH

“Be silence” said Tulcakelume cutting of Loraaga who was once again rendered speechless 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqxQ7APWIC
“You still have her under that spell” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf8OeyYXmg
“Yes its actually quite permanent as long as she and I are alive she will be under my control” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTClyKZDkGD
Loraaga made a wordless shout, a mix of fear anger and confusion on her face.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvz7FAicQeb
“Why so surprised it’s not like you live that long to regret fifty to eighty years and its over”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu159qlA30E
“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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDnMEay5OM
“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 eye729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNwDjCsm37u
Loraaga felt a chill run down her spine, what is the elf going to do to me she wondered 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GON5zWeek
“Do as you wish” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEnHx4alhb4
“Ah...I can speak now” said Loraaga a slight hesitation in her voice729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJtEEhUMmX
“Yes for now, back to the topic at hand this medicine does it work” asked Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtt0WxEdPP
“Betri en buist, not only did I learn the language but it is permanent as well” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc366AL2QIL
“I see impressive” said Loraaga “but why a kiss?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdz5Y2PIETP
“Moving on” said Tulcakelume “I want to see if this will actually work “729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5Fqsf1gs8
“As am I, I have never tried it on a none human before”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A4D9Wrupm
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 this729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5H43Hx5hl
“Uther stick out your tongue”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5YY6qXraL
Uther complied 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWPZEfO2hg
“Now swallow”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilKbEapkUA
Uther swallowed the pill on his tongue729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK4Y0QC7tl
“Now give me a kiss”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEQZLZ294a
Sivir stood up straight and watched intently blushing bright red.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNy8QqjZCM
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyoXc1T76J
“Well that was interesting” said Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpkbM1OzX3
This time it was Loraaga’s turn to choke 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMBADevRgn
“The bear it it talks” said Loraaga between breaths729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGAIOyL5bc
“Yes and quite well I must admit” said Uther 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMDFl5mQw8
Sivir was beside Cyable helping to clean of her face with a cloth.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmp7YIlf9en
“I am glad it works I need to make a note of this as well” said Cyable as she let herself be cleaned 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxfpWRQaok
“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?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrnUK0ZZlU
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKbjBCOd4a
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QkLc4oLnG
“You have had a hard time until now Uther” said Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUupnlZXV7
“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 Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡen7KqzGPH8
“You are a smooth talker for a bear” muttered Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbO8nX4Gm0
“Fear not lady Sivir I have no intention of coming between you and”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsXWMjW004
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDR6nrhYagI
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK2d5FCq6J
“I was …hunting a bit” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7UKYSRexx
“I was sent here for enlightenment” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDpo1y0uYX
“What does that mean?” asked Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Xz14yfYQZ
“You will see soon enough since you are coming with me”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGJCAt1jSq
“Oh….wait What?!” exclaimed Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04ZhoRDhBL
“Well you are my servant as of recently so it’s no surprise you will follow me where I go”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeoinmBu9xJ
“But you said I was free!”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PxMADDPGk
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtskVyY1G6F
“You” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSu7kU9Jg7b
“That is lord Tulcakelume to you”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2otBvlClkE
“Ok that’s enough stop toying with her” said Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpL2zeRfgI
“Fine I see you seem to have come to some understanding of me sage” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe5kZqRI03
“Indeed you are not an evil person but you do have some dark shadows about you”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneZMt2QTkj
“He is the destroyer, he is evil he just hides it behind all the light of priesthood” said Sivir 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVZBRT23Qe
“Why do you call him that” asked Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJrcJlxwst
“Yeah you said that in the forest too” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YcdTKcEXB
“Indeed I was concerned when I was bound that one of you was called destroyer” said Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jiLuvGJlc
“It is a rather ominous title” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhyTQsOBqt
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEx403Wf4rf
“You burnt down Sherent!!” exclaimed Cyable “that was one of the largest of the dark elves forest” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn659JxFUUV
“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.” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lumepbwcw
“What of the elves of the forest” Loraaga asked729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHLHNDHOkZ
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjsaLkb7oSv
“You sound like you would have won from the beginning” said Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M7yV2ThXW
“We would they were stubborn and refused to”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpbBQ8ejSU
“Refused to submit to your rule to let you do as you wish with us and our homes or lives!” hissed Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqUtjvEUth
“Had you surrendered you would be free now and still have your precious forest” said Tulcakelume calmly729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlDKFiCfkI
“You monster!” said Sivir as she readied her bow 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgw8p6i1VM
“Defend”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWa9cS1PjH6
Loraaga jumped in front of Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72UoJxFeEX
“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 dies729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8hO5mzE7w
“WHAT!” Loraaga exclaimed729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcwtwZv2lu
“Yes forgot to mention that well what do you say” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVmZAd89pT
“She is one human” Sivir said as she pulled her bow back as far as she could729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWheQfIf5sv
“Sivir!” Cyable cried in surprise729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyqcmnNUNd
“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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGrOIIm3ggV
“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”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaFA8m4c82
Tulcakelume raised his hands in mock defeat “to think taught civility by a beast” he said with a smile729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdalfCMhH24
729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPZnzHafST
“Lady Sivir do not take his taunts seriously he is not an evil man…mostly” said Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqBpcFlLJP
Sivir lowered her bow “I am sorry Loraaga, I “729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgI5pJ0hwoc
“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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQOrxkJFYY4
“I had heard priests were the kindest and gentlest beings of this land second only to the fairies” said Cyable.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLzgFRvmmf
“Yes we all have exceptions, but indeed I have been rather cruel and I am sorry Ms. Sivir”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CvXqbxqFr
For a moment the room was silent all were shocked by this apology.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyh0lm4bFoL
Clearing her throat Cyable asked now that we have all calmed down maybe I can ask she thought729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91JuDRzLdN
“I would like to ask for your help in searching for a herb to make a potion to restore my magic”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9y7yNkgsqb
“Fine we will go with you” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0xCxQPtY1
“Whose we?” asked Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrBanckv2U
“Why we is you and I after all what servant would leave her master alone and unarmed in a forest” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2Tnr9VbZa
“I am going to get you for this one day” she muttered729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIgsM8gMA2
“Uther you can rest here you had a terrible day and”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5gKH5jtzu
“I am fine dame Cyable I am a war bear after all I would be honored to go as well as Miss Sivir”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVRh7meFL3
“Is that true Sivir?” Cyable asked 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsl7kdAmvL
Sivir nodded in response. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n0FTkR6uJ
“Thank you all! When we get back I shall make you dinner a feast?” said Cyable cheerfully729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlZY3c4aZB0
729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KgdmWuP9M
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3MWoPoesv
“Let us rest for a while” said Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmYwT7GQs7e
“Tired already master Tulca” asked Loraaga mockingly729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3kDPtbR0g7
“No but you and lady Cyable are”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zx7GZ1Ot7
“I am fine Tulcakelume” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV53cQ959LX
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPntWZV3KGY
“Fine, thank you I shall take up your offer.” Cyable said while resting against Uther.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPdBGFRFWn
“Sivir come down Sivir”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1yIMVot6V
From the trees came a soft pat the sound of Sivir gently landing nearby. As she approached, Tulcakelume asked729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2q5enspJ7
“Are there any animals nearby?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqNcd9Y7ID
“No they have all scattered”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj9pqbvhSU
“Good” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmTBDr5f5x
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yAsBduthi
“Now we rest” he said729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuQDr8RfIx
“You can do that and you had me cutting branches and vines for you the whole time.” Said Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3ZjtGnpDe
“Yes I did but if you are mad be mad at the darkling who can command the vines themselves” said Tulcakelume enjoying himself729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyX8oUCYAp
Loraaga looked at Sivir who quickly looked away729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLnf2pYJ2d
“Sivir, you could do that the whole time?” asked Loraaga a angry vein on her forehead throbbing 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5hji7rp8H
“Yes but natural magics are not to be used trivially, as my mother taught me” said Sivir still not meeting Loraaga’s eyes 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo2Vz3DSnv
“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 Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVJdvL2NgL
“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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSivhCyvaX
“Though I am glad to have my fur”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsEjoLpPb45
“Come here” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoP5rx8yBq
Loraaga shuffled tiredly over to Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszhFrGLJMv
“What master” asked Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6enqOFxHP5
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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3JZ6bo2vh
“Thank you master…Stop making me call you master!!”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qUsMSw7E8
Tulcakelume laughed “I have not had this much fun in years since ahh I can’t remember”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfktM0OS8E
Still rubbing the spots that no longer itched or ached Loraaga looked at Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNWapxo0bV
“Didn’t you say you would stop controlling me” she pressed729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu4TYux6L3
“And I have for the most part, I have not given you any orders except to clear a path for us”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLMl7VG3Rj
Loraaga looked stunned 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyk8xbMu1t
“Indeed Tulcakelume has not given you any orders since we left the house” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQvi2pnI8P
“Exactly lady Cyable, he did not stop the earlier command to have her call him master” said Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbivayLXVDa
“Remove the command master!” said Loraaga 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2XhJ5s46N
“Indeed Tulcakelume, remove the command it must be terrible being controlled” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ybtdYbR0V
“Call Cyable great sage” said Tulcakelume with a smile729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvEbIuBqVN
“Great Sage Cyable stop him” Loraaga said729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lvwNCZwSH
Cyable had a look of pure bliss on her face729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoY4obcqmtr
“….Great Sage Cyable?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJl43O4oW2
“Maybe it’s not so bad to leave things as they are for a little longer” said Cyable still glowing729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1MuvRBClH
Sivir and Uther looked at each other slightly confused and looked back at the sage who was glowing.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzwkQeXfqW
Loraaga sat down and gave up 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULM0oNDo2d
“I think you should get some sleep Loraaga” said Tulcakelume 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7Z42mQPK4
With a sigh Loraaga lay down to sleep729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfdMEwQ54S
After a few minutes if silence 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEkUeHT34c
“I think I will turn in for the night as well” said Cyable 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtySPsYucVX
“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 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGQ2eGqPQS
“Thank you Uther, Sivir would you like to join us”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqr0DnHWwv
Unable to speak the dark elf pulled her hood over her face and nodded729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80SCE1rF7r
“If you do not mind would you let Loraaga sleep with you as well” asked Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSk6AKkAXP
“I am big enough for all” 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp3TYDAOMl
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd9vF1Nzhb
“Is it alright for us to be taking this break after all I am taking up your time?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELJTfiGfLp
Cyable was cut off by Tulcakelume who raised a hand729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qHdcfP2zG
“Haste in this forest will only lead to misfortune” said Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXRSQzZUmr
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvmwHZEYmyH
When all had fallen asleep Tulcakelume moved over to the fire and began to think about the past few days.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE4VUt2yNm
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIwtZMf0nr
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. 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfW6Bvy1Xpj
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtq6EkhwBL
“Is she possessed?” Sivir asked Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1j09VDGrHP
“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.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit2PvdUbuq
“Is there a way to help her?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaQcs1JSuF
“Do you still remember why you distrust me?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Rrs2x7gNi
“You burned down my home and killed my people”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPXxJR0O8h
“Are you able to forget?”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWIJ3pEJ81
“I will never forget”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLsi34atDA
“That is the same for this one here”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjEQOMLkuC
Sivir and Tulcakelume were silent for a time, the silence was broken by Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqlo9Rmt5T
“When she rises I will ask her what”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNNwKhEvDJ
“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 Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTpwwFnzhr
“The sooner I know the sooner I can make her forget”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2y9ebcjI15
“You high elves think you have the right to tamper with the minds of others, is nothing sacred to you” snapped Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoTbo8wRMA
“Would you rather see her tear herself apart every night instead darkling”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRckDkEOMTJ
“I never, no but this is her trial not our”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQzIyop3yr
“I believe it would be better to wait till she brings it up herself” said Uther 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqv5JoDWzO
“Did we wake you Uther my apologies” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwt6SMwQL4
“I have been awake from Loraaga started to moan, I covered dame Cyable’s ears when Sivir moved” said Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3sXX04oB2
“So you think we should leave her be as well Uther” asked Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhsUfy7KIm
“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 Uther729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYENABSxxE6
Sivir nodded 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQnksY3Ajd
“Very well, Sivir might I ask you to take over watch I seem to be restrained” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡON1qfdokue
Sivir nodded once more729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZV4j98GRf8
With a chant a tree root raised to support Tulcakelume’s back as he was held by Loraaga729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFmztPbtry
“…Thank you”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QcpWZAWk5
“I did it for the human” said Sivir729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeB8BHxe2pd
729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppyp0qXqyF
Now again he finds Loraaga in the throes of a nightmare once more Tulcakelume embraces her and holds her firmly. The thrashing calmed.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBPLKewwoO
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdxvpoSc7y
“How do you feel this morning” Tulcakelume asked729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pbzMRPo9W
“Y y you knew I was awake” she stammered729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvoEozezZn
“Yes I can tell the difference in your breathing, I am glad you have controlled yourself this morning.”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4PrpJ9CwN
Loraaga quickly got to her feet729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jCopjz5Y4
“I’m gonna get some eats…y you want any” she asked timidly729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPfrBxgEAIS
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 answer729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuRkHRshMvU
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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDwTMpF5MX

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 .729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfmvHPg3KE
“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 said729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLjbHyFjXf
As she was talking Sivir rolled over half asleep she hugged Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujsLTuvlZJ
“Sivir dear are you alright”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsuaXdIobTX
Sivir mumbles something before resting her head on Cyable’s chest and falling back to sleep729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UD6OoKFmk
“I think it would be better if we made breakfast” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DV8I22BXg
“What are you going to make” she asked729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgsMW0AkqC
“I have no idea I have never cooked before” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3EE6qDovD
Loraaga and Cyable looked at each other 729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscQcAnqkbK
“Loraaga could you”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam9OZlNfc2
“Yeah I’ll do it”729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWdXsfmYjTL
“I am a genius” said Tulcakelume729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMVz6CqVAW
“And cooking is an art” said Cyable729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLM34nL6AA

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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxM2vq1Xxj
The search for the herb continued this unusual group found that they got along very well for a group made under these unusual circumstances.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1U0RGAMz8

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.729Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMKWc9W4lO
