Each step she took felt heavier and heavier as her mind constantly raced for answers of her own. What purpose does this tome even have? Why was she meant to hold it? Why her:? There were soo many others who would be more deserving of something sooo important. Like the Queen or Ishmael... I mean he is a warrior of god,..."What if thats why he was sent to the city?..." "Who mi lady?" Rudivar asked her. She looked to him and then back to the front as she moved ever closer back to the path towards the elven city. "Ishmael,... what if he was put their by the church to not protect the city?..but to protect me?" She said and looked back at him. "What makes me so special?... what am I a part of?" She asked and Rudivar sighed and looked forward putting a hand on her right shoulder and his left hand on her left as he helped her move forward without stopping. "Emeraude will explain everything..." He answered her and she went wide eyed and was a little angry. "What do you mean the Queen would explain?... She knew?!... You knew?!" She then caught her self before she exploded. Her free hand touching the side of her head. She wanted to scream, she wanted to find a safe small place to hide and just scream into a soft pillow. Rudivar continued to lead her out the pikeman following in behind as the stepped onto the path cutting out of the forest. From here on out they would take a right and head west back to the elven city. The pikeman positioned them selves outside and surrounding the others. Her would protect Lady Nova from here. The pikeman had Cassandra, Kyalia, and Kyoto boxed in so they could protect them if incase the imp came back with a friend. Rudivar began to wonder a few things of his own. He was told nothing specific about Nova, only that she was important and must be protected. The Queen said this to him and he feared Eliphas would send his best to break her and she was fragile at this point body and mind. What have the elves gotten themselves into.
