His head shook. "The fault does not lie with you." How could it? She didn't even know what the markings were, much less the meaning behind them. In a strange way, he was glad that she had told him. He'd never thought that someone would try to copy the Vir, though he supposed that it made...

"That is..." There was a flurry of words that echoed through his skull. It was clear that Eldrin was near filled with rage at the mere thought of what she had mentioned. There was a slight quiver in his hands, his eyes seemed a bit more focused. Everything about him spoke of a man who was about...

He blinked for a second, clearly surprised at what she said. His eyebrow perked for a moment, trying to read her expression. "They are called Vir." Eldrin clearly seemed suspicious of something. "They are an ancient rite. Held by my people for generations." Slowly the Elf reached up his hand...

He shook his head. "It is not possible." Eldrin wished that it was. Wished that he could uproot his people and take them to the South. He knew that his kin in the Falwood would welcome them, but it would not work. Aside from pride, there was something else keeping them here. "My people have...

Eldrin chuckled. "Thanking me is the last thing you should do." He was self aware enough to tell her that. Head shook for a moment, lips thinning as he considered what to say for a moment before he answered. "If I don't succeed in killing Aguilar, your fate will be the same as mine." Eldrin...

Eldrin nodded. He meant what he said, whether she believed it or not. The Elf had never really wanted to harm her. If he'd needed to he would have, but it hadn't been a part of the plan. Things were above her, she was a pawn in the game. Just a pawn. Both for him and for Aguilar it seemed...

For a few seconds Eldrin looked at her, his eyes focusing on hers. A breath filled his lungs. Was he a monster? Was he a man? Was he something in between? Eldrin didn't care about Rosaline, he didn't care about her fate. He didn't care about what she did or who she really was. To him she was...

A small, rueful smile touched his face. "Most already face that fate." His lips thinned as he looked at her, then back out the window. "Aguilar will never stop." The King's ambitions did not know the boundaries most men would. "I'm sure you already know that." There was no doubt in his mind...

"Would you like to know why I'm doing this?" Eldrin asked, his gaze flickering out the window. For a brief moment he watched those who were going about their day outside, those strange blue eyes wavering for a moment. He breathed. "Fifteen years ago, when Aguilar was first coming to power I...

Eldrin sat himself down when Rosaline did not, clearly not at all bothered by her turning her back to him. "There is little doubt that he will send his men." Though whether it would be for Rosaline, or for Himself was difficult to tell. If he had to guess, Eldrin would have said more for him...

The building was surprisingly well put together, though it was easy enough to tell that it was old. Most of the wood seemed warped and shifted in color, and the doorway itself was half peeling with pain. Eldrin lead Rosaline forward, pulling open the front door and motioning for her to step...

They might not have known, but Eldrin did. He was not a crusader for justice. He was not a man that believed all were equal or deserved to be treated the same. He was a man out for his people, or what little was left of them. He knew what he wanted, what he needed to do to get it. There was no...

It took some time before they reached their destination. They were in a deep forest, the trees larger and taller than they had been in the grove where Rosaline and Nil had gone for their picnic. As the cart came to a stop Eldrin pulled a knife from his pocket, Rosaline seeing the blade that...

"It's no fault of your own." Eldrin was not so delusional as his cousins down in the south. He did not think that every human was evil, that each and every one of them deserved some form of death. He knew that there was good among them. Knew that a good many of them would be glad to live among...

A quiet 'tsk' escaped his lips. "Yes, he is rather the monster isn't he?" Eldrin said with a shake of his head, drawing in a breath as if almost rueful about the situation. He gave her a knowing look, gaze flickering over her form for a moment before they drew back to her eyes. "I suspected it...
