In a tavern in the dark slums of the great underground city of Yliakum a young Elf sits drinking an ale. \"What the heck was I thinking getting myself into this. They have never done anything for me, never ever treated me with respect. But when they\'re all in trouble who did they turn to? Me.....\" The Elf says to himself slowly sipping the last of the ale. \"Bartender?\" He says holding the empty glass up. The small drawven bartender walks up and refills the Elves\' bottle.
\"Whats your name son?\" The dwarf says trying to make some conversation. The young Elf looks over to a poster of an Elf with spikey silver hair and a grim look on his face reading: \"WANTED dead or alive, Raeon Volune. Wanted for Assassination and Robbing.
\"My name is R-\" the young Elf stammers trying to think quickly of a lie. \"My name is Rylock.\"
\"Rylock eh?\" The bartender replies. \"I didn\'t wanna say this when you came in but you look alot like that wanted fellow...Wass his name?\"
\"Raeon.\"
\"Yeah, Raeon. If I didn\'t know any better I woulda thought that you was him.\"
\"Yeah, I get that all the time....\" The Elf says nervously
\"Well, here ya go buddy, this ones on the house.\" The Dwarf says handing the young Elf his drink.
Just then a rough looking Enkidukai holding a strange looking bag slowly walks into the bar. The Enkidukai takes a seat next to the Elf.
\"Raeon.\" The Enkidukai whispers. \"I got the spellbook.\" The Enkidukai opens the bag showing a large book glowing an eerie, dull, reddish glow.
\"Finally,\" Raeon whispers back sigh deeply \"I think they\'re starting to recognize me....We better get going Jemlir.\" Raeon gets up from his seat and leaves some gold peices behind for the bartender. The two leave the bar walking through the streets of the slum.
\"Now all we need is the sword, and the two Gem stones.\" Jemlir says happily \"Come on Raeon cheer up, this journeys almost over...\"
\"But it\'s not over yet.\" Raeon sighs yet again shaking his head. \"I don\'t know why I get myself into this stuff. The village treats me like some.........like some peice of trash. But when a deadly plauge strikes, who do they turn to Jemlir? Me.....And I accepted.\"
Jemlir opens his mouth to talk as a dagger comes streaking past his ear.
\"More bounty hunters....\" Jemlir groans.
-
Pretty good I\'ll be waiting to see if the 2nd is as good :)) One thing is all i have to say sorry but it kinda drives me crazy rogue is how its spelt.Not rouge thats a color.
-
((Oops, sorry about that rouge/rogue thing, I\'m not much of a speller. :( ))
Jemlir opens up his bag and takes out the spellbook.
\"What do you plan on doing with that Jem?\" Raeon asked drawing his Katana to defend himself. Jemlir only gives Raeon a wide grin, then he looks down at the spellbook chanting in some strange language he points at place where the dagger came from. \"Jem no! We don\'t wanna attract too much attention!\" Jemlir continues to chant as his finger starts glowing the same reddish glow as the spellbook. Then a large beam of red shoots from Jemlir\'s finger at a dark alley way, A sream is heard and a body falls down out of the alley, his head missing as blood litters the streets. Jemlir gradually stops glowing and gives Raeon another grin.
\"How do ya\' like my magic Rae, pretty nifty eh?\" Jemlir says
\"Nifty\'s not the word Jem......\" Raeon sighs.
\"Hey you!\" A voice calls from behind them. \" What are you doing!?\" Raeon turns around to find a patrol knight with a two-handed sword looking at them.
\"Jem, on the count of three.\" Raeon whispers to Jemlir \"One.\" The knight looks at Raeon giving him a strange look.
\"I know you! You\'re Raeon Volune!!\" The knight yells
\"Two.\" the knight charges at Raeon and Jemlir shouting a cry for backup
\"Three!\" Raeon slashes horizantally at the knight with his katana, the sowrd easily going through the weak patrol armour. The knight stumbles past Raeon holding his chest as blood leaks through his fingers. A loud crash is heard as yet another body falls to the ground. Raeon turns around to see Jemlir holding the spellbook, shooting spells left and right at the patrol Knights. The young Elf grabs Jemlir by his hands and runs through the streets of the slum.
\"Raeon what are you doing!? We can take em!!!\" the Enkidukai yells. Raeon turns the corner into a dark alley way to cath his breath.
\"Jem..........we might be able to take down a few patrols. But what if one escapes to get the Dragon Guard? Then what Jem? You can\'t just dive head first into every situation. And where did you learn how to use magic?!\"
\"In the Stone Labyrinths....\" Jemlir mumbles barely audible
\"The Sto-\" Raeon is cut off by a stange yet familiar voice.
\"Well well well, if it isn\'t Raeon Volune, and his Enkidukai friend.\" A male Diaboli says entering the light.

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiice . ;)

The Diaboli gives Raeon a sly grin and pokes him slightly on the chest with his dual blades.
\"You\'re the last person I\'d think to see here in the slums.\" The Diaboli says
\"You\'re the first person I\'d think to find in the slums.\" Jem growls at the Diaboli
\"Jem calm down,\" Raeon takes a step infront of his companion looking the Diaboli down with a grimace. \"What are you doing here Staloss?\"
\"I could asked you the saaaame thing, but then again I already know the answer.\" Staloss laughs \"How\'d you get yourself into so much trouble Raeon? Are you taking up after you little daaaaddy?\" With lightning speed Raeon draws his dagger, pushes Staloss against the wall, and holds the dagger up to the Diaboli\'s neck.
\"You don\'t have the right to talk about my father like that! You traitor!\" Raeon\'s anger is seen clearly in his eyes as a light silver glow emits from them. \"My father trusted you and you betrayed him!\"
\"Aaaah, that ol\' word again. Trust. Tell me Raeon what is this \"Trust\" thing exactly.....\"
\"I don\'t have the time for this...\" Raeon sheaths his dagger and begans to walk off.
\"Raeon, wait!\" Staloss calls. \"I think I can help you in your quest.\"
\"We don\'t need or want the help of a untrustworthy Diaboli.\" Jemlir says
\"Oh yeah?\" Staloss smirks. \"What about an untrustworthy Diaboli who knows the whereabouts of the Black Moon Gem?\" Raeon turns around abruptly to look at Staloss.
\"What do we need to do to get you to tell us Staloss?\" Raeon sighs heavily. Staloss smiles his demonic smile that fills millions of Wanted papers everywhere.
\"Well Raeon, ya see here theres a war going. Between my peoples the Crimson Shadows. The evil, treacherous Twilight Order, and of course the ever famous Dragon Guard.\" Staloss explains. \"We need some master thieves Raeon, someone who we know has the stuff to do some heavy duty work.\" Staloss pulls out a Wanted poster showing Raeon and Jemlir \"I think this is more than enough proof.\" Staloss looks at the poster and whistles. \"Three Billion gold peices Raeon? Good heavens child what did you do?\" Staloss says smiling.
\"Fine, we\'ll do it.\" Raeon says shaking his head, inwardly hating himself for ever going on this journey.
\"But you better not betray us Staloss!\" Jem adds drawing his Bo from its holster on his back.
\"Oh belive me, I have no intention of betraying you.\" The Diaboli says giving the two campanions that champion smile of his.

This is not the next installment to my story. This right here just provides some background info on the charecters and other stuff, jus in case some of ya got lost.
Raeon Volune- A 120 year young (Thats VERY young by Elven standards) Lunarian (a certian type of Dermorian)
that was exiled out of his country becuase of his father\'s evil ways. He roamed the land searching for a safe haven but he fainted one day in the middle of a forest from exhuastion. When he woke up he found himself laying in a bed with a Lemur tending him. Raeon found out that he was in a small village named The Garden because of the variety of races. The village treated Raeon as an outcast because of his father\'s past (the village emphazises peace).
Jemlir Windclaw- A young Enkidukai who was found crying on the doorstep of an Enkidukai family in The Garden. The family imediatly took him in as thier own. One day a 15 year od Jemlir was walking down the streets when he saw a brawl between three Stonebreakers and one lone Elf. Jemlir\'s wild nature forced him to join the Elf against the Stonebreakers. The two succeded and Jemlir found out the Elves\' name was Raeon. They were friends ever since.
Staloss Twilight- A 25 year old Diaboli who was crime partners with Raeon\'s father, Raezok. Togther the two robbed many banks, bars, homes, you name it. They were the number one public enemies, no one could stop them. But one day as Staloss was walking through the door to his house he saw a big red fireball come through the window and right into the house. The Diaboli\'s quick reflexes made him jump off to the left, but a little too late. The fireball exploded sending Staloss back through a brick wall. When he came too he could only see an Elf with shining silver hair standing in the place where his room used to be. Staloss thought that this was Raezok and so he wanted his revenge for being betrayed. The next morning a partol knight was walking to his post as usual when an Elf ran up to him and fell down right there on the spot. The Knight bent over to see a pale, dead Raezok. The Elf was poisoned. A note was in Raezok\'s hand reading: STALOSS
-
hmm SO HOW OLD WAS RAZEOK?? CAUSE u HAVE 120 raeon and 25 year old staloss who worked with razeok (who is raeon\'s father and must be older then reaon).
I like the story and the background info tho it\'s cool.
and lunarien?? moon thingy or not?
-
hehe there are many elves in baldurs gate(thats where abit of this came from i think) i.e. moon elves, winged elves, wood elves (or woob elves ;) ) high elves, half elves etc................................
-
((Raezok was 350 when he died, 350 is about Middle Age by elven standards. Staloss was 20 when Raezok died. Lunarian elves come from a land where the sun never rises. So yeah it is a moon thingy.One more thing, about that Crimson Shadow/Brotherhood thing. I could change the name if anyone thinks i\'m tryin to copy somethin.))
On the way to the Crimson (or whatever) Shadow\'ssecert HQ Raeon looked over at Jemlir and the bag he was carrying and remembered what Jemlir said about him learning magic in the Stone Labyrinths.
\"Psst, Jem.\" Raeon whispered to Jemlir. \"Remember what you said about that Stone Labyrinths thing?\" Jemlir looked down to the ground at the Stone Labyrthins being brought up.
\"Yeah, what about it.\" He whispered back.
\"Well, wha happened?\" Raeon replied. Jemlir sighs deeply and looks at Raeon with a very serious expression on his face, very rare for Jemlir.
\"Promise not to laugh?\" He said. Raeon shook his head.
\"Promise.\"
\"Well.....You know how the spellbook was in the Stone Labyrinths? It wasn\'t very deep inside of it. But there was just something inside of me telling me to go further. I\'m sorry Rae.\"
Raeon sighed. \"It\'s ok Jem, but how did you learn to use magic? You can\'t just walk into the Stone Labyrinths and suddenly learn The Art.\"
\"Well.....This is the freaky part Rae. The masked god taught me.\"
This final part was almost too much for Raeon to bear. A small chuckle came from the depths of his throat. \"SEE!\" Jem growled. \"I knew you were gunna laugh.\"
\"Sorry Jem, but Laanx, teaching you The Art? Come on now Jem, be serious. Who taught you?\"
\"The Masked God!\" Jem said with a hurt expression on his face.
\"Here we are! The HQ of the Crimson (or whatever) Shadows!\" exclaims Staloss smiling from ear to ear. \"You\'re gunna love it here Raeon, everything a man could ever need and more.\" Staloss opened the doors and almost imedeatly a crowd of people came to greet him.
\"Yo! Boss! We got some new female workers if ya know what I mean!\" said a male Xacha giving Staloss a wink.
\"Ey! Boss man! We got some reports of a battle goin on between the Twilights and the Big Liza\'d\'s.\" Said a female Enkidukai giving Jemlir a side glance.
Staloss simply dissmissed them all. \"I\'ve got some important work to do now, We got some guests.\" The crowd parted to let the tree through. Staloss turned the corner into a narrow hallway with transparent glass.
The transparent glass showed female of all races dancing in skimpy clothing. Both Raeon and Jemir flushed as they walked by the dancers of thier race. Jemlir imparticular saw an Enkidukai he though he recongnized, but he shrugged it off thinking that the person he knew would never do something as degrading as dance in a cage.
They walked into a room with a big rectangular table in the middle and chairs almost all of them being occupied by people of various races, mostly Diaboli, obviously discussing something of importance. In the middle of the table was a entire map of the slums with blocks of red, dark blue, and green in different places.
\"Werdan?\" Said Staloss
\"Yessir?\" A male Diaboli said
\"Get our guest some chairs.\"
\"Yessir.\" Werdan grabbed two chairs and pulled them up to the empty chair sitting at the head of the table.\" Raeon and Jem sat down in the chairs.
Staloss got up from his chair holding a big pole in his hand with a rectangle and the end.
\"OK, here\'s the plan.\"
-
((I\'ve been thinkin about doin a story on Raeon\'s father, Raezok and Staloss. It would probably be about from the time they met to the time Staloss meets up with Raeon in the Rogue Elf. Tell me if you would like to see me make up the story and give me some suggestions also. :))
-
The more story the better! I dunno if I should be the one saying this, but ask Kendaro to read some of your stuff and you would have a good chance for the settings department of the team, well atleast I think ya would but my opinion counts for this much0 ;)
-
\"Ok, here\'s the plan.\" Staloss said. \"First I have decided that we\'re gunna take out the Dragon Guard first, so we can wage war on the streets with the Twilights without the pesky lizards interfering.\"
\"Thats a great plan boss but.....How are we gunna do that? Tha Dragons outnumber us.\" question a female Elf
Staloss grinned. \"Thats where these two come in.\" The Diaboli gestures over to the Elf and Enkidukai. \"These two are gunna go into the lizard\'s HQ undercover and kill the big boss.\" Already Raeon was regretting his promise to Staloss. \"Any question anyone?\" Staloss said scanning the room. No one said anything. \"Good, ok Raeon and Jem, follow me.\" The threee walked down a long hallway into a very small locker room. Staloss opened up one of the lockers and took out two Dragon Guard armour outfits. \"Here ya go.\" He said handing the to armour suits to them.
\"Aren\'t you going to breif us?\" Jemlir said.
Staloss laughed. \"Dun worry my little feline friend. I\'ll brief you as you\'re going through the mission. I\'ll be with you every step of the way.\"
\"How are you going to do that? Theres only two suits.\" Raeon said.
\"Oh, I have my ways Raeon, I have my ways.\"
Raeon and Jemlir put on the armour and started walking toward the door when Jemlir turned around abruptly. \"How are we gunna get in?\" He said
\"Me and my crew are gunna make a diversion.\" Staloss said walking them to the door. \"Good luck.\"
((Sorry I haven\'t posted in a while but as I said in the Shadowlife quest me and my comp got into a fight and She refuses to do anything for me now. ANd sorry about this installment being kinda short, thats all I can do for right now.))
-
Raeon and Jemlir walked out of the Crimson Shadow\'s HQ a little shaken up. They had been sent on this mission, a suicide mission for sure, to go into the Dragon Guard HQ in Ylakium and kill the High Guard. It was nearly impossible to kill a low ranking Dragon Guard. But the High Guard, the son of the founder of the Dragon Guards!? It was mind boggling to Raeon why he had accepted. Was it desperation to finish the journey? Was it madness? No, no couldn\'t have been. It had to be blindness. He was blind to see the truth at first. That the mission was impossible. But now that he had accepted there was no turning back, he was going to die. He knew it.
Just as the thought had crossed Raeon\'s mind, he and Jemlir had come up to a massive green and black building, reaching all the way up to the ceiling of the underground city. The bulding, which Raeon knew was the Dragon Guard HQ of the 5th level, had great paintings of dragons fying around in great battles with knights mounted upon them. It was a great site.
\"Wow, this place is nothing as the rumors say Rae.\" Jemlir said trying to look up at the top of the building. Raeon simply sighed.
\"We better have that diversion soon.\" Just as Raeon finished the sentence a shout was heard from deep inside of one of the houses surrounding the HQ. The guards posted to guard the entrance of the HQ ran over to the house and busted inside. A great ball of flame erupted out of the house, engulfing it and everything around it in flames. People pilled around the house to see what was going on in thier peaceful sector. Nothing ever happened around here, the Dragon Guards kept everyone safe. But now, a thief had broken into someone\'s house and set it aflame. Dragon Guards of all ranks ran into the house looking for survivors.
\"This is our chance Jem.\" Raeon said running toward the headquaters. Raeon opened up the doors into the headquaters and found it nearly empty, except for a few high ranking guards. Raeon looked around the lobby. It was beatiful. The floor was a beatiful green gemstone. the walls painted so they looked like dragon scales, and Raeon admitted to Jemlir, they look real. The ceiling was diamon built to capture light so the whole lobby look as if a dragon had breathed its deadly breath inside of the lobby.
An officer walked up to Raeon and Jem looking them up and down as if he was searching inside of them, searching inside of thier souls.
\"You two must be new recuits.\" The officer said.
Jemlir bowed deeply. \"Yessir, we are.\"
The officer laughed. \"Then why aren\'t you at the fire site?\"
\"We..........We didn\'t know what to do sir, we came here for orders.\" Raeon quickly lied.
\"Well, lesse go see what the High Guard says about that.\" the guard said knocking Jemlir upon his helm. Jemlir readjusted his loose helmet to hide his face and gave something that might have passed for a smile. The officer lead them down a long hallway.
\"So if you two are knew recuits, then why do you have the armor of a Captain?\" He asked
\"Well sir....We uh.........We had to wear these because the all the privarte armor is being used.\" Raeon replied. The officer simply nodded.
About halfway down the hall Jemlir tripped upon something and fell to the ground with a clash. His loose Dragon Helm came off his head and rolled out onto the floor. The Dragon Guard officer looked at the Enkidukai lying upon the floor, looked into his face and realized he wasn\'t a real Dragon Guard but a wanted criminal. The officer drew his Bastard Sword yelling down the hall, calling for a red alert.
-
This is one of the greatest stories I have ever read so far. Keep it up Raeon!
-
raeon, u taken a break :D
-
((OK I\'m back everyone, I know how much you\'ve missed me. Me comp was being a meanie again and wouldn\'t let me on the net. ;( ))
The swung down at Jem in a wide arc that was meant to decapitate the Enkidukai. Jemlir quick refelexes made him roll over to the left and sweep his feet under the Dragon Guard. The Guard fell back with a loud clash and dropped his sword. Raeon grabbed from the air and stabbed it straight down into the Guard\'s chest. The dragon armor absorbed most of impact but it didn\'t absorb enough to stop the guard from blacking out. Jemlir quickly jumped up to his feet grabbing the spellbook from his back as more Dragon Guards approached them.
Raeon wasn\'t about to die right now, the least he could do is complete the mission and die knowing he did a good thing. But the odds were against them. The hallway was basically filled with Dragon Guards. Raeon took a very deep sigh. He never thought he was going to die like this.
\"It\'s over Jem.\"
Jemlir sighed also. \"What about the village Raeon? We can\'t just die without saving the Garden. We hafta do something!\"
\"Jem look! They\'re all over us, its over!\"
It obviously wasn\'t over becuase just at the Dragon Guards reached Raeon and Jem they suddenly fell to the ground, their necks covered in blood. All Raeon could here was a small snicker, but that was all he needed.
\"Staloss.\" Raeon smiled broadly.
\"Didn\'t think iI was going to let you die now Raeon. I owe it to your father to keep you alive at least for the next 2 years. After that you\'re on your own.\" The diaboli said appearing out of nowhere his dual broadswords in his hands drenched in blood.
Jemlir was too busy shooting spells at the Dragon Guards to notice Staloss\' appearance. Jemlir cast a immense wall of flame and to appear and burn most of the Dragon Guardsd that were near. The rest? Raeon had no idea had to get rid of them, but the odds weren\'t as big as they were before, so he had SOME hope left. But Raeon had no idea had to get through that Dragon Guard armor. Most of the Guards were simply unconscious even from Jem\'s spells. But right now Raeon couldn\'t think about that, he had a mission to complete.
-
OmG Nice Story !!! Keep writting we want more !! :)
-
((I\'m back!! Sorry I\'ve been gone so long but I was on summer vacation and couldn\'t log onto the net. ;( ))
Raeon had just downed another Dragon Guard. He knew that was number 150 or something like that, he had lost count around 100 when his left arm had stabbed, oh well it happens. Staloss had helped a bit when he appeared but after 30 Dragon Guards he had gotten fatiuged.
\"Been nice knowin ya\' Raeon, really.\" Staloss said to Raeon after he just barely killed another Guard.
\"Wish I could say the same.\" Raeon replied. Staloss only grinned. Raeon wondered how anoyone could manage even a small smile at a time like this. Raeon looked over at Jem, he seemed to be doing much better than the rest, figures,Enkidukai have great endurance, Jemlir wasn\'t even bleeding yet.
Suddenly as Raeon managed to knock out another Guard and Jem finished him off the butt of a sword came out of nowhere and hit him square in the head. Raeon\'s last thoughts were of his father, and then he actually managed to smile. He would be seeing his father again. Then the darkness engulfed him.
Jemlir saw Raeon get hit and thought Raeon was dead. Jemlir had known Raeon ever since he was little. He couldn\'t think of life without Raeon. He felt a red hot anger fill his body, all rational thought left him. He didn\'t even need the spell book, his body was the spell book now. Jem shot spells left and right but the Guards kept coming, but it didn\'t matter, the more guards the better, he wanted to kill as many people as possible, for Raeon. But the more guards weren\'t really better for him. The more guards the worse is more like it. Everytime Jem shot a spell it was like a little bit of his body left with him untill it came to the point where Jemlir could barely stand. He didn\'t prove that much of a fight for the Guards really, just one good whack with a club and the Enkidukai was out of the picture.
Staloss was the only one left. Of course he knew he wasn\'t going to die. First of all he was a Diaboli afterall, he was going to die in the HQ of the miserable little Dragon Guards. Secondly, He saw what happened to Raeon and Jem, they weren\'t dead, just unconscious.
Lastly, Diaboli have this AMAZING talent to suddenly dissapear when things get rough, that would explain why when a Dragon Guard took a slice at Staloss he swiped nothing but air, the Diaboli was nowhere to be found. No matter though the Guards had exactly what they wanted.
-
Diaboli don\'t have very many emotions. Anger, yeah. Happiness, only after sucssessful heist. Pleasure, definately. But one emotion Diaboli almost never feel is sadness especially when the one feeling it is a crimelord. Nevertheless, Staloss felt it as he reapeared in a dark alley way. Raeon had some great potential, just like his dad. It really was a shame. Staloss really wished he could have told Raeon the truth about his dad, and his heritage. He wanted to tell Raeon that he REALLY didn\'t kill his dad, not purposfully at least. Staloss drew his dual Broadswords and looked at them. Both of the swords were inscribed with the ancient language of the Lunar Elves.
\"Sorry Raezok, I tried to save him.\" Staloss said to himself walking out of the dark alleyway.
Jemlir awoke. That by itself was a surprise. Another surprise was that he was still in one peice, no cuts, bruises, anything. It tooke him a few moments to remember just what happened at the Dragon Guard HQ. But when he did remember it hit him hard. Raeon was dead. Jemlir held back tears, Raeon wouldn\'t have cried, he would\'ve gotten revenge. Jemlir started thinking of a plan. He looked around. He was in a dark labratory by the looks of it. A table with strange instuments was on his left, and on his right was a pool with a wheel above it. Jemlir tried to get up to explore some more but he was tied down onto a table.
Just then two people came in with blood all over their white clothes. They were wearing gloves and breathing masks.
\"We didn\'t get any info out of the Elf, let\'s hope the Enkidukai can help us.\" Said the first man.
\"What did you do to Raeon!!\" Was what Jemlir would have said, if his tounge didn\'t feel like jelly. Nothing came out but babbles.
\"Aaawww, look at him. Trying to say something. What\'s wrong? Cat got ya tounge?\" The second on said grinning.
\"No no I got it. What\'s that you say, Jimmy\'s trapped in the well?\" The other joked. The two men laughed wildy. Then the abruptly stopped.
\"Lets hurry up and get this over with, it\'s free night at the tavern.\" The two men made Jemlir drink some bitter tasting juice, and then his vision was clouded by darkness, and he feel into a dreamless sleep.
-
Raeon woke up in a prison. Raeon counted in his mind. That was the second that he woke up when he should\'ve been dead, most would consider that a blessing, he considered it a curse. Raeon\'s body felt like it was on fire. His left arm was broken, his right eye was cut, his stomach had a large gash on it, and his leg was nearly cut in half. The torture he received had took his toll on him. When he was capture by the Dragon Guards they took him to some weird labratory. They conducted experiments and tortured him to try to get the whereabouts of some two ancient swords. Raeon had no idea what they were talking about, but they never belived him. They continued to torture him until he was nearly dead. Then they simply threw him in prison, without food, water, or even healing him.
Raeon needed something to keep his mind off the pain.He looked around to take in his surroundings, to see if there was any chance of escape. There was none. The doors looked as if a magical seal was on them, there were guards everywhere, all heavily armed with a long sword and shield and full body armor.
Just then a voice emerged from the corner of the prison.
\"It\'s a small, small world afterall.\" Said the voice Raeon recognized the voice almost immeadiatly.
\"Crysania! What are you doing here!?\" Raeon exclaimed. A young Elven girl emerged from the shadows. Her long silver hair flowed down to her waist, her shny grey eyes peirced into Raeon\'s soul, her slender body was perfect.
\"Looking for you Raeon. After you were exiled I just couldn\'t stand being without you. Raeon what are you doing here?.\"
\"To tell you the truth I really don\'t know. One moment I was in some strange laboratory and the next I was here. But you still haven\'t told me why you are in a prison.\"
\"It\'s a long story Raeon. One that\'s too painful to repeat.\" Raeon simply nodded. He understood how Crysania felt, he too had gone through so much, it was hard to repeat his story more than once.
\"It\'s ok Crysania I understand.\" Raeon enfolded Crysania in his arms as they sat down and they gradually fell asleep.
-
((I updater the post above to make a little longer, and I\'m going to update the background info post thing to include the new character.))
-
Crysania Nightwind- Raeon\'s childhood friend. As they grew up their feelings for each other grew with them. They eventually fell in love and got engaged. When Raeon got exiled she waited years for him to come back. Last year (a year before the story began) she went t the king to ask if she could leave the Lunarian nation to search for Raeon (the reason she had to ask is becuase of a war going on between the Lunar Elves and the Humans). The king saw this as an opportunity to send a spy into the world outside of the Lunarian nation and said yes.
((back to the story))
Raeon woke up with the smell of blood thick in the air. The door to the prison was open revealing a scene f pure horror; The walls were covered in blood, bodies or pecies of the Dragon Guards were all over the place, and here and there were little sprinkles of silver glitter. Raeon\'s eyes widened, the silver glitter was the spell component used by Lunar Elven mages. Raeon shook Crysania awake.
\"Crysania. Crysania.\" Raeon whispered. Crysania opened her eyes and streched.
\"What\'s wrong Raeon?\" Crysania said rubbing her eyes. \"What\'s that smell?\"
\"It\'s blood. I think Elven assassins have been here.\" Crysania got up and looked around. She barely seemed disgusted at the site like Raeon thought she would have, she only shrugged.
\"Why would Elven assassins come here?\" She asked
\"I have no idea. But whatever the reason was it must have been important.\" Raeon replied. Then he grabbed Crysania\'s hand and walked out of the prison cell. \"Come on we have to get out of here and find Jemlir and Staloss.\"
\"Jemlir? Staloss??\" Crysania said. \"Who are they?\"
\"Friends.\" They started down a corridor, this one too filled with blood. Here and there bodies were covered sprinkled with the silver glitter.

((Ok, i\'m back again after another break. I just got kinda lazy and didn\'t feel like updating the story. So, anyway back to the story))
The building was like a maze. A maze seen in the worst nightmare. No matter where Raeon and Crysania went bodies and blood were sitting there waiting around the corner, in the rooms, and at their feet. Bodies of not only the Dragon Guard but Lunar Elves. Raeon\'s mind was in peices, shattered into a million peices like broken shards of glass among the floor. He just couldn\'t comprehend what happened here. Why had Lunarian Assassins come into the Dragon Guard HQ? Just what was so important that they needed to take away so many lives? The Elves view life as a god itself, taking a life without a good reason was the worst crime an Elf could commit. So it HAD to be important, extremly important. Crysania walked next to Raeon, her head bowed, her eyes apon the floor. Her mind was obviously somewhere else. But where?
They eventually came apon a door labeled \"Armory\".
\"Come on, we need some weaponds just in case some more Dragon Guards appear.\" Raeon said, his voice rough and harsh.
\"Raeon? Are you ok?\"
\"Yeah, just thinking. Crysania. Do you have any idea why the Elves would be here? What so important for them to take so many lives?\" Raeon asked. Crysania seemed kind of surpised by this but she quickly regained herself.
\"Well....I do...kinda.\" She said, her voice barely audible. \"Well......there\'s a war going on between the Ithil Quessir ((Note:That\'s Elvish for Lunar Elf)) and the Humans. It\'s gone outta hand. When I asked the king to leave the Lunar kingdom I overheard a conversation between him and the General of the army. They talked about some magical artifacts that was hidden here in the city. I have no idea what that might be, but as far as I know it\'s extremly powerful. The possesser of it could.....basically rule the world.\" Crysania looked up into Raeon\'s eyes \"They also said something about you, Raeon.\"
Staloss thought it was time for a break. A break from all the stealing and the killing. It\'s real bad stuff. Bad for one\'s health, mind, and social life. Of course the love life is doing great, but he could live without women for a while. He was thinking about how he was going to break the news to the Shadows. It wouldn\'t be easy, he was with them ever since he got into the underground city. But afterall, it was only a break. Staloss walked into the hideout of the Crimson Shadows preparing for the usual wave of grettings and women. What he saw when he walked in wasn\'t a wave of grettings and women. It was a wave of swords crossbows and every other weapon under the sun. Staloss smiled, they must be paranoid after that big battle.
\"You can put the weapons away now. It\'s just me.\" Staloss said calmly. The theives still held their weapons up. \"Hellooo? Did that blast a while back make you all deaf? It\'s just me. Your leader.\" They stared blankly at the Diaboli. Then a single voice rose up.
\"Staloss Twilight, Diaboli, suspect 44531. You are under arrest for,\" The voice whistled, \"quite a number of things. Murder, theft, breaking and entering, assualt Dragon Guard officers, damage of property, and last but not least: Betrayal.\" Then Staloss recongnized the voice.
\"Jemlir.\"

Staloss looked around the Crimson Shadow\'s hideout, he looked at all the blank faces staring at him. Then he realized.
\"You put them under some spell! Didn\'t you Jemlir?!\" Staloss\' anger was overwhelming, his eyes could barely focus, his brain long since stopped working. All he wanted now was to see Jemlir dead. Jemlir could see the obvious anger in Staloss. He wasn\'t even intimidated. Jemlir simply grinned, a mockery of Staloss\' smile.
\"It\'s a wonderful spell isn\'t it?\" The Enkidukai asked. \"The Charm spell. Can turn basically anyone and anything into your humble servant. Wanna see? Watch this. It\'s Hilarious. You!\" Jemlir pointed to one of the new recuits Staloss said had good potential. \"Dance! Wait wait, no.....Tap dance!\" The theif immeadiatly stareted tap dancing like a street performer. Jemlir looked at him and laughed until tears stremed down his brown fur.
Something was dead wrong. Staloss knew Jemlir. He wasn\'t like this, he hated to see others suffer, and yet, here he was, laughing like an idiot at someone tap dancing. Those Dragon Guards must have messed him up reeeeaaaaal bad.
Jemlir abprubtly stopped laughing. \"Phew....what a blast. Well.....I gotta cut this show a little short Staloss. But before I kill you, or WE kill you, I gotta know one thing: Why\'d you leave us Staloss? You betrayed us! Raeon trusted you and you betray us!\"
\"I never betrayed anyone! Raeon knew what he was getting himself into when he accepted.\"
\"Oh yeah....Sure Staloss. He knew that he was going to get cuaght and tortured and KILLED! Yeah of course. Look Staloss, you\'re going to die. Just tell me the truth.\"
\"That is the truth. And I doubt you could kill me, even with the charm spell.\" Of course Staloss was bluffing. He had only one trick of his sleeve, and if that missed, then he would die for sure.
Jemlir laughed. \"We shall see who kills who Staloss.\" Suddenly the Enkidukai started glowing a dim red, that got brighter and brighter. He started levitatating along with the glow, the brighter it got the higher he went, until he was a few inches from the roof. Then he let out a screamed that peirced Staloss\' ears to the point of pain. But Staloss simply stood there, the scream was only a distraction form the real attack. All the members of the Crimson Shadows dissapeared in a haze of red, their trademark.
