Eldrin woke up next day by Faylinn's coughing. She had been free from nightmares since yesterday night. That was good news.
"Faylinn,"He asked his wife gently, "It's time to get up so I can give you your medicine," And Faylinn let out a small whimper.
She opened her eyes slowly and Eldrin helped her sit up and poured a drop of the medicine into her glass and poured up water in the same glass. "Here,"He told her gently as he handed her the glass with water with the medicine.
Faylinn carefully drank the water and put down the glass on her nightstand.
Eldrin gently pulled her into his arms and gave her a kiss on the forehead. "Do you think you're strong enough to get up?," And Faylinn nodded, "Yes," And Eldrin helped her get out of the bed, "Come, let's get you some breakfast,"
After breakfast, Faylinn managed to convince her husband to take a ride.
Aranel, Thondin and Alma accompanied them.
They entered a tavern.
And Faylinn went over to the desk as they others were fixing a table. "Excuse me, I would like to order...," And the man with short dark hair and grey eyes turned to her and Faylinn looked at him in shock. "Keegan," And the man smiled at her, "Faylinn," "What in Eschallus are you doing here?!,"Faylinn asked shocked. And Keegan took a few steps closer to her, "Ever since you find out who you are, I've been waiting for you to come into my tavern. I wanted to give you your space. That you come to me," And Faylinn looked at him confused, "My space!?,"She asked shocked, "Are you out of your mind!? Have you've been fallowing me!?," And Keegan sighed, "I have so many things I wanted to tell you. So many things I've wanted to say. And now, look at you. You've all grown up," And he stretched out his hand. "Don't touch me!,"Faylinn warned, "This makes no sense. You don't look a day older. That was over 18 years ago!," And Keegan sighed, "After you run away, I find out I had magic and that I was an immortal wizard and I came here to wait for you," He began to explain, "Because of my immortality, I don't age like mortals. The fortune tellers was right. They said that you would be here when you were around 30 and here you are," "The fortune tellers?,"Faylinn asked confused,"Wizard? You're even loonier than when I run away," And Keegan sighed, "I'm not. Faylinn, you know that I'm telling the truth. You're married to an elf. You know that you're more special than you know. Your husband is going to be in great danger if you don't let me help you," "NO!,"Faylinn exclaimed, "I know you screwed up a part of my life! You're crazy! Crazy then, crazy now! You tried to kill me! Get out of my way! I'm going to tell Silvianna or Evindal," And Keegan stopped her, "You're not telling anyone!," And he pulled out a silvery rock. "What's that? Your pet rock!?,"Faylinn asked ironically. And Keegan shook his head sadly, "No, Faylinn. It's magic. From my religion," And he pulled out her memories of this moment and her past with him. He then gave her a weak push and pretended to catch her, "Oh, you alright?," And Faylinn looked at him confused, "What happened?," And Keegan smiled, "You almost fell. Do you still want to order?," And Faylinn nodded, "Yes, of course," And she ordered meals for her, Eldrin, Thondin, Aranel and Alma.
"What was that about?,"Eldrin asked worriedly when they sat down to eat. "What?,"Faylinn asked confused. "You had a real argument with the person at the desk,"Aranel explained confused. Didn't she remember?.
Faylinn looked at them confused, "You must have heard wrong. I don't remember myself getting into an argument," And Eldrin looked at her worriedly. Was the demon venom causing her to have memory loss?.
When they arrived back to Ellyn, Faylinn decided to rest since her coughing had returned. Luckily, Thelmar had said that the demon venom should be cured soon.
"Faylinn, Gideon, Silvianna and Thelmar is here to speak with you about earlier today,"Eldrin explained as he entered their chambers. And Faylinn looked at her husband confused, "Alright," And Eldrin helped her out into the meeting hall.
"How are you feeling, my child?,"Thelmar asked gently. And Faylinn smiled, "Better," And Gideon sighed and glanced at Silvianna, "Faylinn, Eldrin and the others suspect that your memory has been wiped," And Faylinn looked at them confused, "What are you talking about? That's impossible," And Silvianna sighed, "It's not what it sounds from Eldrin, Aranel, Alma and Thondin," And Evindal, Elanor, Lorielle and Aidan sighed.
"There's a spell that I can do to show us when your memories were taken and by who,"Gideon explained, "Let me help you to retrieve your memories," And he went over to Faylinn and Eldrin sighed.
Gideon used his magic on Faylinn to give her back her memories and show them how she lost them.

(End of flashback)
Eldrin looked at worriedly and upset, "He stole your memories right in front of you! What kind of wizard does such a thing!?," "An evil one,"Gideon sighed. And Faylinn sighed, "I don't understand. Why would he want me to forget him if he has evil plans for me?,"
And Eldrin sighed, "I don't know," And suddenly, Faylinn had another coughing fit. And Thelmar hurried over to her, "Faylinn, you have to calm down," And he put his hand on her forehead, "You're burning up with fever again," And Eldrin looked at him confused, "But I thought... It must be that dammit wizard in the tavern! He must have poisoned her!," And Thelmar sighed, "I think it's something that would mix with the demon venom and make it stronger again," And Faylinn started shaking again before she fell backwards and fainted.
Eldrin caught his shaking wife in his arms, "Faylinn! Aurora!?," And he gave her a gentle shake. "Mother!,"Elvia exclaimed.
And Thelmar sighed, "Let's get her back to your chambers," And Eldrin nodded.
