Miya instantly stood out of her seat, launching herself towards to Estes, an attempt to tackle him down. Unfortunately, her attempt failed. Estes grabbed both of her wrists tightly before she could attack him. Can you please calm down? I do not wish to fight you, Miya." Estes said as he tried to make her sit down. Miya struggled violently, refusing to sit down, thus, making it hard for Estes to make her sit. "How dare you?! Asking me to calm down after what you've just said to me! You're a savage monster!" Miya raised her voice, she's obviously angry at him. When Estes looked into her eyes, he saw immense hatred, then it slowly turned into sorrow. Miya's angry expression turned into a frown, tears forming in her eyes, only to drop down quickly towards to the edge of her face. As Miya cried, she stopped struggling, falling to her knees. How could Estes betray her? Wasn't he a part of her family, or is it all this time she's been alone and blind? She couldn't understand him, being kind to her since childhood, weren't they a family, or is it all a lie? "Why did you kill my family...?" Miya asked, her voice hoarse and broken.

Estes kneeled down on his knees, letting go of her wrists, using one of his hands to wipe her tears away. "I was forced. I didn't want to, Miya. You know my father, he's a ruthless man behind his kind face."
  "That perfectly describes you. Like father, like son. Am I right?" Miya swatted his hand that was wiping her tears away, coldly glancing at him. Estes let out a tired sigh, pinching the bridge of his nose. "I'm serious, Miya." He said, his voice stern, yet tired. "What part of your father got anything to do with my parents getting killed by you?" Miya asked, her voice bitter. "My father did not want to dirty his hands, so he ordered me to do it. That greedy bastard, always thinks he's superior than anyone, including the guardians. He was the one responsible for one of the Guardians of the land of dawn being depressed, keeping herself locked within her icy walls and harsh blizzards." Estes answered, his tone hinting anger. He slowly clenched his hands into a tight fist. Miya looked at his fisted hands, noticing his anger. "You mean, the Queen of the northernmost land?" Miya questioned. Estes answered with a nod, standing up to his feet. "You once said that my parents were great archers, is that also a lie?" Miya stood up as well, raising an eyebrow as she crossed her arms. "Well, yes. Sometimes the truth needs to be hidden by the lie, for the truth can make a person lose their sanity or get immensely hurt. I cannot tell you what your parents did, they angered the Moon God and Moon Goddess. Luckily, the Moon Goddess forgave you, giving you a second chance. We were told by the Moon Goddess that you have great potentials inside of you." Estes gently touched the center of her chest with one of his hands, a small, glowing sphere of pure light coming out, he made the sphere levitate on the palms of his hand. "You're still pure, another reason why the Moon Goddess forgave you." Estes smiled slightly, relieved to see the sphere in full light and purity, he slowly returned it back inside her.

Miya instantly pushed Estes away after returning the sphere back inside her body. "I still don't understand why you killed my parents!" What did they do! Just tell me, already. Since you're leaving the Emerald Woodland." She grumbled angrily, still glancing at the Elven King. "I don't want to break you more, your pride as a moon elf will instantly vanish. So let the lie stay, and keep the truth out." Estes denied, turning around to face the other way, beginning to walk away, but Miya immediately stopped him. "Please, I need to know what happened to them." Miya pleaded, sounding

desperate. Estes turned his head to looked at her. "There's one thing I can say to you, and that is one of your family member is fortunately still alive." With that information, Estes pushed Miya's hand away from gripping his arm.

As Estes grabbed the golden handle of the thick, wooden door. He heard an arrow being prepared to fire from behind. Estes quickly turned around, catching the arrow with one of his hands before it could hit him. "Don't fight me, Miya. I don't want to fight you."
  "You think you can win? You can only heal. I can do burst damage on you. Technically speaking, you're just a support." Miya said harshly, placing another arrow on her bow's nocking point.

Estes groaned quietly. Miya, you fool, he said inside his mind, preparing himself to fight. Miya fired her arrow, quickly flying directly towards Estes. Suddenly, a fast figure dashed towards Estes's front, slicing the arrow in half. Miya could tell who they are just by looking at their long blades. "You're that night elf. Karina, was it?" Miya glanced at the female night elf, lowering her bow. Karina formed a smirk on her face, placing a hand on one of the sides of her hips. "Correct, young archer. Is  it not a sin to betray your beloved king?" Karina asked, letting a soft chuckle out of her lips. Miya glanced directly at Karina's eyes. "You look different from before.." Miya said grimly. She lifted her bow up, placing an arrow on her bow's nocking point once again. "When we met, your eyes used to be purple, but now its red. Care to explain?" Miya asked, aiming at Karina's chest. "The sad truth is, I do not care to explain." Karina said casually, turning around then waving her hand as a goodbye gesture.

"Fine then, leave." Miya said, lowering her bow once again, turning her head to looked at her left sides. "I'll come back, Miya." Estes said, his voice soft and warm. Instead of Estes' voice comforting Miya, the moon elf archer thought of it as sickening. "Don't ever show up to my face." Miya said, her voice like ice.

Once Estes and Karina was outside of the Emerald Woodlands, Karina suddenly stopped her tracks. "Did you tell her?" She asked, turning around to face Estes. Her eyes no longer the shade of red. Estes looked at her, his expression a bit confused. "Tell her what?"
  "About me, the..." Karina stopped her sentence, shaking her head. "Never mind, let's just continue walking." Karina said, beginning to walk towards their destination. "Secrets can't be hidden forever, Karina." Estes said, following her. "Sooner or later, Miya will find it out."

Karina stopped her tracks again, looking up to the sky to glance at the bright, full moon that illuminated the sky and the land. "Keep them curious."
