As Alessandra and Clyde part ways, she is now left under the care of the Duhsh Elves while he continues on the path of vengeance. The story of what happened in the seven year absence until their next fated meeting remained unknown, until now.
[Alenia's Home - Alessandra's Bedroom. Enter Alessandra Zalori who has returned a few hours ago but has not left her room since returning home. She lies on his stomach on top of her bed, examining the earth crystal that shines a brilliant orange-brown hue.]
Alessandra Zalori:[reaches her had forward, resting her palm on the crystal as her face glows under its light] So warm... it's beautiful.
[There is a knock on Alessandra Zalori's door. Alenia Famaris awaits outside, suspicious of the bright glow that seeps through the crack below the door]
Alenia Famaris: Alessa? I haven't seen you at all since you got home. Is everything alright?
[Alenia Famaris is met with no response, Alessandra Zalori begins to desperately look around her room for a place to hide the crystal fragment]
Alessa? [sighs] I am coming in.
[As the door opens, Alessandra Zalori has not yet found a place to hide the crystal, she quickly puts her hands behind her back, firmly clasping her hands around it in a poor attempt to conceal it from Alenia Famaris]
Alessandra Zalori:[stomps foot on floor] I was just about to come out! stop rushing me!
Alenia Famaris: Don't you start throwing a tantrum Alessandra! [notices the glaringly obvious illumination coming from behind Alessandra Zalori as she keeps her hands hidden behind her back, taking a deep breath of disappointment] what have you taken this time? we've been over this a thousand times, leave the woods at peace.
Alessandra Zalori: But I didn't take anything! I promise!
Alenia Famaris: Alessandra, you're a year away from Solitara, you cannot keep challenging the ways of the Duhsh, I need you to help me, I can't keep turning a blind eye to our traditions and way of life being challenged by-
Alessandra Zalori:[interupts] by what? an outcast? by twisted roots?
Alenia Famaris: By my daughter!
[Alessandra Zalori looks at Alenia Famaris in the eyes, she knows she is sincere in her response. She slowly begins to lower her arms to the side, bringing forth the earth crystal fragment into vision]
Alessandra Zalori: I didn't take it, it was given to me.
[Alessandra Zalori holds up the earth crystal fragment, the sight of it alone is enough to make Alenia Famaris' eyes widen. She passes the fragment into her hands, as the warmth slowly transfers to Alenia Famaris before rapidly cooling and its brilliance dimming]
Alenia Famaris: Those glyphs you read back in the ruins, what did they say?
Alessandra Zalori: 'I am Virithuir, King of Telos, Bastion of the Yaaraerea. Here lies my Final Rest'.
Alenia Famaris: How is that possible? the story of Virithuir is but a passing legend. And why here? why the Duhsh forest of all places?
Alessandra Zalori: I think he was running from something, it was hunting his people down, it looked like they were able to escape it for a while by hiding out here.
[Alenia Famaris makes her way over to the bed, sitting on the end of it as she passing the earth crystal fragment back into Alessandra Zalori's hands]
Alenia Famaris: You will never cease to amaze me Alessa.
Alessandra Zalori: What did I do?
Alenia Famaris: It's not what you did, it is who you are.
[Alessandra Zalori walks over to Alenia Famaris, sitting back into bed beside her]
Alessandra Zalori: And who am I?
[Alenia Famaris gently cups Alessandra Zalori's face lovingly, softly smiling before softly kissing her forehead]
Alenia Famaris: I dîr last na teithad.
{That remains to be written}
[Exeunt]
