*Now it been 2 years since Athers and Elora has reunited. *

Elora woke up slowly taking in the  fresh sea air of her little cabin in a tree ,she has given up her life as a rouge to studying artifacts brought to her by travellers ,her love Athers also gave up one being a warrior to have a normal life with Elora but he trains recruits for the elven queen Hanan and the human rulers for the Vrondenburg .

It also been many years since the last mage attack, Elora still keeps the ring that fell from one of Tranador's fingers but it's to dangerous to give away or to wear so she keeps in locked aways in a in a cast iron safe hidden in a magical place In a place only she would know.

"Athers?  There's a letter for you from the royal commander ".
Athers climbs out of bed and walks through in to their little study to where Elora is sifting through letters , he greets her with a loving kiss before taking the note .He open is it and beings to read aloud . " Dear Athers Dalkenwod your assistance is required for all the royal family , there is a crisis that is needed to be addressed - ".

Elora looks up at him ,as a confused and slightly concerned Athers reads rest In silence his brow begins to furrow.she felt the tension grow as a sweat bead trickles down his pale skin . He roles away the note ."is everything alright my love ".
Athers looked at her,
" Elora there is something I have been meaning to ask you for a long time and considering this ".

He throws the letter on the desk and looks straight back at a worried Elora who is still sitting with letters in her hands as if frozen in confusion,he took a moment to take in her beauty even with all her wounds and scares, to him it makes her even more alluring.
" Meet me by the crying willow in about half an hour ".
He goes to the the bedroom and leaves fully clothed  as he leaves he takes his tattered coat that had been worn out a bit and can see where Elora made the tempt to stich it back together ,she was a skilled fighter not seamstress but she did the trick.

As he left the house in almost a swift run Elora reaches over for the note and reads ,before dropping the note to the floor and clenching her heart she read :we need you to lead the royal troops again ,we understand that you have moved on but
Tranador has returned and seems to be stronger than ever, Elora is in danger because of his ring so I request that you fight for us and keep her safe,  you may not come back so spend your next few days wisely my old friend. 

Grand commander and old friend

Kade

It was not What she expected. She has been in to  many sickening wars to know how  this was going to end , so inside her knew that this was no simple war ...This was a type of armagedon with no room for error but Athers...she didn't want to think of what might become of the man she cares for, the man she saved and found again ,the pain of loosing him will be to great the second time .

It seems as up till now they where happy living a normal life but their past beckoned like a beating drum and their bodies now victims to the rythem of time . She put on a simple dress that made it half way down her thigh with leather pants and her boots that never covered her feet ,she hated things covering her feet .as she tied the corset her mind kept flashing to the last mage war...loosing her wings was bad enough they were wasp like ,It helped her move fast and quietly it made her a deadly wepeon another terrifying memory had striken  so many of her kin dead on the battle field ,the smell making her sick as she kept fighting and wouldn't let anyone else to fall to Tranador, that's when she saw him ,Athers a young elf about to take the last blow after a valiant fight against the wicked filth it has wounded them both greatly. she wouldn't let another soul be claimed by the evil spawn so she acted and saved Athers.

Elora climbed out the the tree House cabin and to the soft grass below as she made her was towards the tree .

The thought of the war huanted Athers:Hot blood,  steaming,  wasted ,no life ...dead ,I fought hard saved as many as I could and weakened Tranador . the taste of copper is to strong when it the only thing that coates your mouth ,I was to weak to keep fighting bloody and beaten as he nearly killed me.I won't let it happen to her . This will not be mine nor her end. thought Athers. He sat at the crying willow listening the lost songs on the past life's, so sad yet their melody was something incomprehensible .  It reminded him how he was so close to death but made it with the help of Elora. oh Elora, I want her to be mine forever but ,his mind pondered on.
