a gentle wind blew through the elven maidens hair, waving it beautifully across her face. she raised her smooth hand and hooked the stray hair behind her ear, she scanned around the endless trees just looking. a small tinkle of her beasts bell drew her attention for a moment or two. she let her hand fall down beside her and the creature stretched out its head and nuzzled it comfortingly. ignoring it she looked back at the trees. the creature at her side today was Zeno, a beast which was her most faithful servant. Zeno was the same size as a male mountain goat, a noble creature, with the paws and limbs of a cougar, large leathery bats wings protruded from his shoulder blades and also he had a long armored, poisonous scorpions tail. Zeno also possessed the eyes of a hawk. Zeno gassed up at the elf and then at the surroundings. Zeno was this womans grandfather the elf turned around her facial markings caught the sunlight as she did so, it was sunny but also cold. she pulled her night blue cloak around her covering her bandoleer and black leather corset. she shut her eyes in thought. she had a vague idea of where she was but didn't quite know entirely, she best not move from this area till she did because you never know what sort of creature she might bump into and she really didn't want to fight now. she opened her perfect eyes and looked once more at her surroundings. she was in the open here but needed directions, but not from the wrong people. there was a high risk that she maybe thought of as a supporter of the demons being a necromancer and all, and her clothing didn't help disguise it.
"Zeno, hide yourself and keep watch come to my aid if i require it but not until." she spoke in a voice that could charm the birds from the trees. "yes Mistress" was all that was replied. the elf turned and Begin to climb a tree so she was conceal but could still see, and waited to see who would cross her path. |

Kelliy heard a rustle from the tree, it sounded like some one trying to climb up a tree, she looked down at her horse and looked back up again, she jumped down from the tree and walked slowly toward the sound.
Her boots brushed the grass beneath her and she lifted her hand and put up her hood so she would look a bit more intimidating she lowered her hands a took hold of the handles of her daggers ready in case she needed to fight she looked up and saw a female elf in the tree she shouted up
"Hello who are you?"

damn, this stranger had seen her. she stood up and lept down from the tree, and landed one had and one knee on the floor, she straighted herself up, her bandoleer rung slightly with her last bell attached, she was slightly shorter than this other elf but that didn't bother her. she seemed to ignore this other character while she was straightening up her clothes and sword.
" move your hands you don't need your blades now." the summoner spoke, looking at the newcomers face but she couldn't see any distinguishing feature thanks to that hood. she decided to tell this person the truth of who she was even though there risked a fight due to being a necromancer, to some elves that was even worse than joining the dark legion."i am the necromancer and summoner leitha, now i ask stranger who may you be?"

Well Kelliy thought she was a necromancer from the way she was dressed
"you don't need to know my name, i live here in these woods, whats your business here?"
Kelliy didn't lower her hands from her blades and kept her hood up she didn't want a fight but if it was necessary she thought to keep herself prepared, loosened her hands on her blades but not completely let go, she stood waiting for a response of this necromancer.

Leitha looked at kelliy, it was calming look, what leitha had feared had happened people often stop listening to everything she says after she says necromancer. leitha sighed. she looked down at the floor and said in a gentle voice "you will not need those blades," leitha looked directly at the new comer. " nor do you need to shield your face, i will not harm you. and if i wanted to kill you to harvest your soul i would have done so already. you are being watched my Friend, by my partner. my business, well its summoners business, i have heard that some one is seeking me in this forest so i wait for them to find me. my business is there business, now please lets keep this friendly, i ask once again i pray what is your name?"

"Kelliy" Kelliy replied, "Kelliy"
"Well if you need any help just shout for me i know the forest like the back of my hand, well Leitha ill see you soon hopefully!"
Kelliy turned and started to walk away then turned back to Leitha
"Good luck with your summoner business!"she said, she turned back and carried on walking then broke into a run and jumped in to a tree.
She crouched in the branch and waited watching Leitha, waiting to see who she was waiting for. Kelliy jumped higher into the tree but she could still see Leitha, but Kelliy thought Leitha couldn't see her.

"hum, kelliy." leitha Begin to say, but was cut off when the wood elf ran off and jumped into a tree. she raised her right eye brow slightly, a show off ay. well if a display is what she wanted because she obviously wanted something considering that she was sitting watching leitha, a display she was going to get.
leitha shut her eyes and drew her ruined blade, it shimmered slightly in the sunlight. with one hand she raised the hilt above her head, tip pointing towards the sky. she began to chant. a rhythmic chant that could touch the heart of the hardest warrior. the chanting nearly became singing, with her spare hand she drew a bell from the bandoleer, a bell with an ebony handle, she Begin to ring it, swaying, the bell followed a five pointed pattern. a star. her chanting got louder:
god of sky and mother of earth,
grant me my slave from the great birth,
let rise and be bound to me,
lend it my spirit so it may see,
raise demur from the pits of hell,
and bind it to my by ways of this bell.
this was all that could be understood, in amoungst a language that some one who had received no necromantic training. the ringing seemed to echo through time and space, it could be heard all over the forest. the script on the blade Begin to glow. there was a rumble and a crack in air its self, a portal Begin to open. there was a dreadful screech and lightning erupted through the portal striking the blade tip.
at that point leitha spun the blade and slammed it into the ground. a constant beam of electricity came out of the portal, down the blade then pushed back in. there was a flash of Burgundy light and a massive hoof stepped through. following it out stepped a powerful steed. it was about 22 hands tall, and had a main of pure gold. upon its magnificent head was a golden horn which was nearly a meter long. its coat was the colours of tigers eye. the creatures eyes glowed white.
as soon as its long flowing tail had entered this world the portal flashed shut and Leitha chanting stopped, at this point she was breathing very hard, practically panting. the demon lowered its large head and rubbed it against leithas cheek. she but the blade and bell away and stroked its head. in a smooth voice the creature said " your getting better mistress, your not nearly as tired as last time. i demur am bound to your spirit and will."
leitha gave a tired smile and patted demur twice on the head and waited to see the wood elves reaction.

Kelliy stayed crouched in amazement, looking at the beast that had just been summoned, she watched Leitha and gasped as she noticed Leitha knew she was in a tree.
Kelliy jumped down from the tree she was crouched in
"nice display... what is that?"
Kelliy waited for a response.

a small smile appeared at the corner of leitha's face. she still had the wow factor. " that my friendly spy is demur, my trusty mount. now tell me why were you watching?" leitha explained then a surprised look came onto her face she turned around and faced the bushes, " oh yes i forgot poor zeno. zeno my Friend you can come out now."
Zeno dragged himself out of a VERY spiky bush looking severely disgruntled. "thank you mistress." he spat out sarcastically. he shook his mix match body and looked at the newcomer, blinked, and Begin to talk to demur in an unknown language.
Demur glared at kelliy and said in a spiteful voice, "are you still here elf?" leitha patted Demur's neck. "now, now lad" she giggled. it was a light merry giggle that nearly made you want to laugh along with her. " i was shown during the summoning that a man of the name of Axel was seeking me do you know where he is perchance?"

"You can shut your face you demon!"
"oh i don't know him, I'm sorry but ill keep watch for you Leitha"
Kelliy turned and started to run into the forest going deeper and deeper into it, she stopped and sat down out of breath trying to get it back. She waited for someone or something to come and talk to her she put up her hood, after it had slipped off whilst she was running.
Kelliy just sat there waiting, the breeze was flowing through her hair bringing it slightly across her face, she thought about the ranger from her past that looked after her, tears started to drop from her silver eyes, the tears were crystal white as they fell the glimmered in the sunlight falling down from the trees
"why did you leave me, why.....?" she whispered.
Kelliy stood up and wiped the tears from her face and started to walk just walking, walking forward into the woods were she grew up and lived and were she lives now at this present day
"I'm going to travel, travel as far as i can all over these Shinkou lands all over the mountains, fields, wastelands, oceans, lakes all of them!"
Kelliy kept walking.

Leitha watched the elf go. "another troubled one" Zeno said. leitha looked at him and laughed. she mounted demur and pulled her cloak around her self once again. "oh these woods amaze me come lets see who else we can find." leitha said merrily. she began to sing a chiming song that could be heard for miles when carried on the wind,hoping to attract someone or something else that these woods has to offer. demur headed into the trees at a slow trot carrying his mistress, he could smell wolves and they could most probably smell him. he was anxious.
