As the queen of the flowerfairies walks over to the town hall Gonfindle whispers "now they think they can destroy the last ones too...be careful my love for all she wants to do is drive you and your parents apart." I nod at him and then turn to Zhephyr who seem to be waiting for instructions. "my friend, fly out of sight and wait 'till they are in the blue forest...then do whatever you want to do with them..."I softly command
"*whispers* with pleasure..." Zhephyr then flies off to get where he has to be while I walk over to the town hall. "Now, that I'm here, say what you have to say and then leave..." I speak to Gwennyn who sits down. "*smiles* very well...what do you want to hear first, the part of those elves or the truth of your parents...let me begin with your parents...*gazes at my mother* your mother ain't your mother at all, dear...I am your mother..."Gwennyn says causing my mother to say "the child you never wanted, since she were a girl and born without wings..." I gaze at both women and then say "Gwennyn if you say that YOU are my mother...then who is my mother then?"
"She was a servant, and a dissobeying one too...I was already mad that she were in love with a woodelf, but stealing my child...and you know why? For Alanna can't have children at all, she never passed her adult tests..." I gaze at both women and then ask very soft "mother is that true?"
"*sighes* yes, dear, I hoped you'd never find out but faith has decided otherwise...Gwennyn is here to claim you back...*smiles*but it took her an awfull lot of time to find us."
"That may be, but now I can give my daughter the place she deserves, at my side." I stand near my parents confused and scared at the same time. the queen of the fairies claims to be my true mother, yet my heart tells me differently. "*sighes* Queen of the fairies altough you claim to be my true mother I have to say that I'm not going anywhere, for I'm staying here with my parents, who have fed and nursed me for years. I dissapoint you, yet you don't have any rights over me at all." I say while standing between my parents. "*I'm dissapointed indeed, I thought you'd have my strong spirit, yet you seem to be weak as your real father was..." Gwennyn begins when suddenly Lancelot shouts "a Cetra elf who refused to marry you, deamonqueen, and in her rage she an her army killed all the Cetra elfs, men, women and children!!!" Shocked I turn around and gaze straight into Lancelots eyes. The old elf sighes and then says "yes, your true father was a Cetra, captured by that witch. He refused to love her and through dark magic she were able to conseive from him, hoping it'd be a boy...when he found out, he killed himself to spare every Mountain elf the shame. That is why I was so surprised when I met you for the first time Isil, when you were a ghost...I recognized your fathers strength" I look at my mother who gazes at my father "*sighes* when the baby was born Gwennyn was furious, it was a girl and without the Cetrapowers she desired so much...it were a helpless, wingless child. In her anger she ordered her army to slaughter the Cetra, who were practically defenceless...and I took you away, pretending that I carried out her orders...getting rid of you. Instead I wrapped you in a blanket and ran off along with Robin." my mother explains. Lancelot sighes too and then adds "back then we weren't home, but when we came home the town was in flames and most of us were killed and others dying...but her highness doesn't know that you only gain the powers when you're adult. But if you really want to know...you're the daughter of Alaron Windrider...and altough you have the blood of Gwennyn too, it is clear that the Cetra inside you is stronger, for you're a pure blood..."Lancelot says. I sit down and hide my face in my hands. "*looks up* it doesn't matter, my parents are here and now, and Alaron can be proud for they are the sweetest persons I ever knew. My life is here and so is my future *stands up* leave queen of the fairies for your presence here is far from pleasing." I say after a long break. Gwennyn gazes at us and then hisses "you seem to be very pleased with your past, I offered you and Alanna a chance to return to us...and you refuse...well then, face the concequences then..." By these words she leaves the town hall and orders her escort to leave too. My mother embraces me and whispers "you brave girl, now that you know all this...what will you do?"
"*looks at her* nothing mother...absolutely nothing, I belong here...with Gonfindle and you father, mother..." I answer. Lancelot embraces me and then says "a true wise decision...and I didn't told you before since queen monster was here, but...since you have an armor of the Cetra...that means that you're adult too." I gaze at Gonfindle who then takes my hands in his. "Since this seems to be the day of revelations...Isil will you marry me?" Surprised I gaze at him "*nods* Gonfindle you know that you're the husband of my heart, what more do you need...*sees his face and giggles* of course I do want to marry you." I respond before falling into his arms. At that moment Zhephyr enters the townhall "*rubs the dust off his hands* that is that, no more trouble...that queen was so kind to step onto my tail...they are toasted." By these words lancelot sighes relieved and Uther shouts "And now a nice party, in honor of the engagement between Isilheledh and Gonfindle!!"
"You use every occasion to party." Lancelot says before leaving followed by the others. I hold Gonfindle close in a tender embrace and look at the windows where the sun shines trough. Due to what happened today I realize more than ever that I'm the luckiest girl in the whole town.
