"*sighes when seeing the green shores of home* This trip was a failure, Tahlemaryn was nowhere to be found..." I sigh deeply.
"*shakes head* hey don't be so hard on yourself, write a letter from time to time and maybe she'll respond one day." Gonfindle responds while Zhephyr flies to our village which still looks the same. Yet when we land Lancelot approaches us and gazes at his son. "*sighes* new dangers have found their way to our lands, my son...Drow hordes are marching trough the southern lands and we fear that we have to seek shelter somewhere else than this village..."
"*nods* we can seek refuge in the mountains..." Gonfindle speaks while gazing at the village, Uther stands near the entrance of the keep and seems to be reading a parchment. I gaze at him and then gaze at my parents who are loading a wagon with bread and other food. "mother, what is going on?"
"We're leaving dear, we've lost you once to the drow, and we decided to get to safety before you fall into their hands again..." my mother responds. I gaze at Gonfindle and then sigh. "I know dear, but it 'll have to wait alright?"
"Wait? I can't command nature you know..." I respond before gazing at my mother who then sighes "I'm sorry I forgot, but it all happened so soon...the minute he was adult, you...*shakes head* ow these are difficult times..." she says before loading on. I run towards Gonfindle who gazes at me with great concern. "*sighes* this is bad news indeed, we can seek refuge at our old castle but even then we have to be carefull..."
"*wide eyes* the remains of that fortress won't defend us at all...then we'd better stay here." I exclaim a bit worried. Gonfindle embraces me and then sighes "at least we'll have a better chance..."
"*nods* Gonfindle's right, we have a chance there, the Maze of Lana hasn't failed before we'll hide there..." Lancelot says while gazing at Uther who decides to give us a head start. "I remain here with the soldiers, to cover you for as long as it takes...at least you'll have a safe passage trough the valley." Uther announces with a certain pleasure in his voice. Lancelot then gazes at the villagers and sighes "we thank you Uther..."
"*nods* just take care of my wife and children alright?"
"*looks surprised* childREN?" I ask.
"*grins* yes Llyana is expecting a second child...does that surprise you, I'm an active man you know...*gives a wicked grin*" Uther responds amused before walking away. I gaze at the wagon with foodsupplies and then rush over to the bakery to get the rest of my gear. "*sigh* I'm wearing an armor and for some reason I'm not in the mood to pick up the sword and fight." I say while Gonfindle enters. "*gives a hug* it is normal with what you carry...*smiles*" he says before leaving again. I follow him and with sadness in my heart we leave the village. "Houses can be re-built, and we can start all over again...yet the value of a life is priceless." Lancelot says when noticing me looking at the bakery "*nods* yes but the trouble is that...the bakery was just repaired...and renewed from top to bottom..." I complain causing Lancelot to smile a bit. Zhephyr walks along with us and gazes at Lancelot "the castle is a ruïn, but I do remember an old legend...about four blades that had to be placed in the four corners of the wind...North, East, South and West...and then soemthing would happen and then the people of the castle were safe..."
"*shakes head* I've heard that legend too when I was a young boy, Zhephyr but nobody has ever found those blades n'or actually knew where to look for there ain't a record of this." Lancelot says. While walking on hoping that Uther would be safe.
