The Dark Elf: The Last Goodbye

The Hands Of Time

Lee and Jack walked through the portal and entered the castle gardens in Brunuhville. Jack looked around at the gardens and then his eyes landed on to the castle. His eyes grew in awe.

"Do you like what you see?" Lee questioned.

"I do. I really do." Jack smiled.

"Follow me. I will show you to your room."

And with that, Jack followed Lee through the gardens and into the castle towards his new room.

The two walked down a long corridor until they were met by a tall, brown, wooden door. Lee pushed open the door and held it open for Jack.

"Here is your new room"

Jack wondered in and looked around. This room was bigger than the one he had back at the tavern. There was a king size bed with red covers and pillows in the far left of the room next to a rather large window. There was a wooden chest of draws next to a wooden wardrobe and a long, full body mirror next to the chest of draws.

Jack turned to look back at Lee and a huge smile made itself know across his lips.

"Thank you Lee."

"Of course. Now unpack and make yourself at home. I will be calling a meeting in the throne room shortly. I would like you to be there."

"I would not miss it."

And with that, Lee left the younger man to make himself at home while he went to unpack in his own room.

A couple of hours had gone by and Lee was standing in the throne room, waiting for people to walk in and join him. The young man heard the throne room door open. He turned to see who it was and he began to smile. There, walking through the doors was his mother with Lena at her side.

But Lee's smile soon faded as he realised that Lena was holding his mother up, helping her walk and keep her balance.

Lee rushed over to his mother and helped Lena hold Alexa up. The two helped Alexa over to her throne and sat her down gently. As Lena sat down next to Alexa, Lee crouched down in front of his mother. Alexa looked up to see Lee's face and smiled.

"You are back."

"I am mother. I gained every power stone."

Alexa smiled but the smile soon turned into a coughing fit. Lee pulled out a handkerchief from his trouser pocket and handed it over to his mother. Alexa pressed the handkerchief against her mother to cover up her coughing. But when she pulled away, a large amount of blood was seen, staining the white cloth.

"Lee, it is time." Alexa spoke.

"Time for what mother?"

"For me to step down and you to take your throne and be King of Brunuhville."

"Are you sure mother?" Lee questioned.

"I do not have long left. You should start your duties now."

Lee gave a nod of his head and turned around to see the people he called for turning up in to the throne room. Lee stood to his feet and looked out to the people.

"I have finally completed my quest for the power stones." He began.

He looked back at his mother and she gave him a nod of her head.

"I will now be taking the roll of king as my mother, queen Alexa Snow, has stepped down." Lee sighed.

"LONG LIVE KING LEE SNOW! THE LAST DRAGON OF BRUNUHVILLE!" Everyone began to chant and shout throughout the throne room.
