She sprang out of her bed. She heard a shuffle come from the other side of the door. She slowly inched her way toward to the door. She hesitantly opened the door just in time to see a shadow rush out the the window in her parents room just across the hall. She crawled into her parents room to find there bodies cold and lifeless.
Her eyes flashed open. She took a quick look around and relisted it was just another nightmare. She look out the the window to the left only to see the usual dark abyss that was the dark cave that she now lives in. Teras Shadowtraveler grunted as she got out of bed knowing today would be as boring as the last. Weapon training in the morning magic training in the afternoon. Then sleeping. Every day was always the same. But this was the way she wanted it to be so one day she could finally hunt down her families killer. Teras left her room and started for the gym. It may be dark but Teras could see perfectly. As she approached the door it flew wide open and two young males ran out and bumped into Teras. In dark elf society females hold more power and authorities over males. The two males had stopped their run for a split second. And they soon realised they had stopped for to long. Teras began to chase after them. Then was tripped and smacked face first into the stone floor. "Go" Artef said. The two kids were gone in a heart beat. "Why did you do that." an angry Teras said. "You really need to loosen up Tera."
"Maybe I don't want to." "The fact remains that you shouldn't let your anger get to you like that." "Do you plan these things. Cause this is the third time this has happened this week." "That is for you to find out." Teras grunted as she lifted herself off the ground. Then walked into the gym.
