Hey its me again sorry I haven't written anything for a while I have had a really bad wrighters block but  

but I'm here now :P anyways on with the story..

Bliss POV: 

"Its better to ask for forgivness than permission"  

That was what my mother used to say. I have used it myself in many cases but it didn't really work. Its  

its about the only thing I have left from my mother. I mean I know things about her but its the only thing she ever passed down. And for that I am sorry and wish I had more time to spend with her. 

She was very beautiful, well most elves where, but she was more beautiful even by our standards. She had flowing golden locks that reached down to her waist. Her cheekbones where high and her eyes slightly slanted,like most elves. She also had a laugh that tinkled like bells and her smile was so enchanting.

But,unfortunately, a terrible plague hit her and it was so strong that not even the oldest and most  

experienced spell casters couldn't heal her. She died at the age of 276. That's young for us.  

But I'm not all elf. No my father was human. He was said to be jolly man and was incredibly hansom.  

Unluckily, I didn't know him well. People tormented my mother for marring my father just because he  

wasn't like them and, when he found out she was pregnant with me, he left to save her and me any  

more shame and for that I admire him.

And because I have mixed genes of a elf and a human, I have pointed ears but I age like amy normal  

person. My mother explained that I was special and the first human/elf ever to be born. And I supose  

she's right but, to me, I'm just weird. And that's what I will always be and no one, not even my self,  

can change that.

Tristons POV

"Sire, we had scouts go out just this morning. Their lining up on the eastern bank of the Jeit river. They intent to attack up front." Said Carn. I scowled. I had hope they would attack from the Leona Lake,  which was more northenly. That is where we had staged our attack. But, to our inconvenience, they  where now westenly making us move out into the wind that bellows on the plains of the Atruli feilds. Right now we are sheltered by the Misted Mountains so that stops the wind but, if the other soldiers can why  not us.  

During my thinking process, Carn had taken out a map of the ground seperarating the two armies and spread it out across the table. I'm glad he's here because, with out him I would be as good as dead.  

"Perhaps if we attack them full on we could..." Started Carn but I quickly cut him off. 

"No, we would lose to many men" 

"Then maybe we could split the army into two and attack from the side flanks-" but again I cut him off 

" No, splitting the army will do more damage than good. No, we must march our man around the  

opposing threat and attack them from behind. Giving us the advantage of surprise" 

"Is that a good idea,sire? Its a question to fight or not to fight." 

"Yes, not fighting might give us an advantage we need" 

" I mean, the men grow restless and eager to fight-" I cut him off again 

"No" I was growing sick of that word "we will lose less men if we march than if we attack them. We  

need the men. We cannot not fight and win with only two men, Carn. You've got understand" I really  

hope I had convinced him. A magician in this war was a great weapon. Also, I would feel a lot safer if I had his aproval for he was like a Brother to me. The brother I never had 

"I do, sire." A small smile flickered into excistance on my face then Carn continued 

" Tomorrow we will tell the men our exact plan. But for now, you need to rest you look like you are  

about to faint." My smile vanished. Thinking about it, I did feel tired well, more than that infact. I nodded and bid Carn good night and made my way to my small canvus tent. Their was no silloette on  the makeshift wall. My heart dampened a bit more

Okay that's it hope u enjoyed. Took me a while to think about what to do but I hope you enjoyed the  

little history lesson on Bliss. And weldone to those inheritance fans and realised where I got the name Jiet river and the Leona lake.

Anyhoo luv from me  

Xx
