Adalie sits on her bedroom floor while the twins were at the rift and she sighs, "Well, might as well try again." She sets up her supplies and makes her circle, and she gets in position, "Come on, please work..." She holds her hands up to her chest and closes her eyes, concentrating and her fingertips glow and she takes a deep breath, "Okay, okay." The circle outline glows as well and she begins to softly sing.

"Here me now, hear it well.

Listen carefully to my spell.

Come back to me, and walk again

Open your eyes, and feel free!

Please be here, awake from your sleep

No longer can the darkness keep you from me

Awake and rise once more

Please come back, forevermore...."

There were some sparks and Adalie keeps her eyes shut tight. The glow becomes brighter, and then a bright light nearly blinds Adalie and she was knocked backwards, hitting her head hard against the wall, knocking her out cold.

Adalie's ears were ringing, and she struggles to open her eyes and she felt something touching her cheek, hearing a muffled voice. She was being shaken gently, the voice starting to become clearer, "Adalie? Adalie wake up. Please open your eyes..." She groans, and she slowly opens her eyes, seeing a figure and she shakes her head, trying to clear the dizziness and she felt her face lifted up to look at a familiar face and her eyes widen a bit, "E-Elk?..." She blinks a few times and once her vision was clear again, she sees Elk looking back at her, tears in his eyes, and she gasps, "It... it worked.... You're back..." She hugs him tight, crying and Elk hugs her back, crying as well.

She kisses his face over and over, tears falling down her face, "I missed you so much. I missed you I missed you I missed you..." Elk kisses her lips, and he holds her close, "I missed you too. Oh my god, I missed hearing your voice, I missed seeing your face, I missed everything." Adalie touches his cheek, giggling, "I see you've gone through a couple changes." She gives him a small mirror and he now had a full beard around his face, "Oh my." Adalie giggles and she nuzzles his chest, "I love you either way." Elk kisses her forehead, and he looks around, "Divoky.... Aldara... Where are they?" She helps him up, "they're at the rift. Oh honey.... they've changed so much... I don't know if they'll know it's you." 

Elk looks at the floor, "Would I even recognize them?" She caresses his cheek, "I'm sure you will." There was the sound of a door open and Aldara's voice was heard, "Mom! We're home! Where are you?" "In here kids." Elk backs up a bit, "Would they recognize me? What do they look like now? How much have I even missed?" Adalie comforts Elk, "Honey it's okay. It's okay, take a deep breath." The doorknob jiggles and Divoky starts opening the door, "Mom? Who are you talking to?" Elk gulps, "Oh god, I don't know i they'll know me! I-I should..." 

Adalie tries her best to keep Elk calm, and the twins were looking in the doorway and they see them. Aldara and Divoky stare at their mother and the elktaur and there was an awkward silence, and Elk takes a couple steps forward, "A-Aldara? Divoky?" The twins stare at him, before finding their voice, "Dad?...."
