The Tale of the Shadowsinger

Rust

It was morning when Azriel finally found what he was looking for. He had been searching all night, trying to find out where Elain could be. When he found out she has been kidnapped he was horror struck. Even though he knew that she is Lucien's mate, he still cared for her and her safety.

On a map he found a fort which when he looked it up in a book was said to be owned by a female called Laura.

When he studied her he learned that she was known for deeds like kidnap and murder. Any sudden disappearances could mean that it has something to do with her.

Azriel told the others about her during breakfast. "It will be dangerous!" Cass pointed out.
"That's true but you guys are dangerous as well I'm sure you'll be fine." Rhys objected with a smirk.

Cassian, Rhysand and Azriel set of after breakfast. They winnowed out of Velaris all the way to the autumn court which was where the fort was located.

"You know that we're not even sure if she is actually there. It might all be a mistake." Rhys warned.

"We have to do this," Azriel responded, "if she is there we would be leaving her behind, we have to at least check."
His brothers nodded.

They set of towards the fort. It was large and grande. Before they could even knock, the door swung open revealing a slim female standing before them. Her hair was curly and the color of rust. Her bronze eyes scanned the Illyrians.

"What do we have here?" She said with a smirk. Her voice was strong and powerful.

"I am Rhysand, high lord of the night court." Rhys introduces himself.
Azriel was taking a breath to introduce himself, but the female beat him.
"I really couldn't care less about your names." She said.

"Now, why are you here?" She demanded.
"We've come to look for a certain female." Azriel answered. He felt a weird feeling in his chest. As if there still were remains of the poison.
"Is she young and beautiful, brown eyes, maybe even a seer?" The female asked slyly.
"Yes! Is she here?!" Azriel asked.

Cassian glanced at his brother and for a few moments it looked like he would grin wickedly. But  it wasn't him who grinned wickedly but the female.
"She is here. She is safe, but not for long." She chuckled to herself. The sound reminded Azriel of rust.
