[hr]

A battlefield. Bodies littered the ground. The sounds of weapons clashing sounded all around. The ground was soaked in the blood of all the races. This was the scene that Kenia stared at, completely confused. There was a sword in her right hand and a dagger in her left and she was completely soaked in blood. This was the rebels battling the lich king's forces. It wasn't clear who was winning and who was losing as both sides seemed to be losing many of their warriors. A panic came over Kenia as she knew she had to find the others. She had to make sure Malachi, Corvina, and Rei were alright.

As she moved through the sea of battle she caught sight of a familiar figure. When she'd known all her life, who was one of the first to ever love her. Her father was locked in battle with a dark elf, but another was coming up behind him. She moved quickly, running her sword through him and watching him drop. [Color=forestgreen]"Kenia what are you doing here? If you love them, you should be protecting them. You must find-"[/color] Nym's words were cut short as a sword burst through his chest and Kenia let out a scream in despair. Behind her father stood Airdan giving her a menacing grin. Hatred filled her as she sent a flurry of attacks at him.

The elven man let out a chuckle as he blocked every attack. [Color=darkorange]"Why are you wasting your energy on me Kenia? Didn't you hear your father? Your precious loved ones are in danger."[/color] He then vanished and Kenia looked around in shock and confusion. Was he planning something? She had to find Malachi and the others. She began running, desperate now.

First she saw Rei, he was fighting that psycho human. She had to save him, but he was so far away. She ran as fast as she could, but then he turned and looked at her. [Color=FFBF00]"You failed me Kenia. Don't fail the others."[/color] The words cut deep and she wanted to vomit as she watched the human behead him. Anger filled her, but before she could attack there was Airdan again.

[Color=darkorange]"You better hurry, little girl. You're running out of time."[/color] He was mocking her and she wanted to murder him for it, but now wasn't the time. She just grit her teeth and ran past him, fighting a few dark elves along the way until she saw Corvina next. The girl was battling some large demon and Kenia marvelled for a moment at her flames. She fought fiercely and Kenia felt a small bit of pride. She could see the exhaustion, however, and knew that her magic would fail her soon. Kenia pulled out a dagger and threw it at the demon. The weapon hit its mark, but did little at slowing the demon. That's when Malachi appeared and Kenia breathed a small sigh of relief. That relief was short lived, however, as she watched in horror as Malachi shot Corvina through the heart. How could he do such a thing?

As she got close she realized something was wrong, something was very wrong. Malachi's eyes were empty and glazed over. His skin was pale and as Kenia got to him and grabbed him he was cold. Malachi was dead. Her heart shattered and she realized she was losing everything she cared about again. It was all because she wasn't strong enough to protect them. She had to do better, had to be better. She needed to make them her priority. [Color=0072bc]"Find us, before it's too late. Find me, Kenia."[/color] His empty eyes met Kenia's tear filled ones and she began to nod.

[Color=8dc73f]"I will. I promise you I will find you and Corvina."[/color] She told him as the dream began to fade and she could hear the sounds of people stirring from sleep.

Kenia merely peeked one eye open, watching as others silently got up. Bowyn began heading into the forest and Kenia would have been suspicious, however he was heading in the direction of the stream she also visited the night before while on watch. While she didn't entirely write it off, she could understand that perhaps he wished to bathe. She herself had done so while on watch as she'd been completely covered in blood. She'd also exchanged her dress for that of her common clothing as it was more practical to travel in.

Darius had gotten up and gotten moving, which she silently watched for a moment and noted he seemed bothered. He'd also used his magic to clean off his face which Kenia found to be quite useful. The way he appeared had her wondering if he two had a bothersome dream. Perhaps she'd ask him about it later. For now she can't ntinued to lay there, deciding there was no use in getting up yet until Bowyn had returned.

When the winter fae had returned, however, he seemed to not be alone. Kenia's hand silently went for the dagger hidden under her pack which she'd been using as a pillow. She made no move yet, however, as she waited to see what the others would do. How would they react to a stranger finding them? Perhaps this group was far too trusting as they seemed to welcome her into camp after her claim of merely being lost. Then again perhaps it had been the right move as the woman now knew they had a human. Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer right? There was no way to tell if she were friend or foe yet so Kenia would just keep an eye on the woman.

Kenia silently got up and began making sure stuff was packed up and ready to go while Elthrael did his little show for her. While Kenia knew well how the art of seduction could get someone to reveal secrets, there was a part of her that doubted that's what Elthrael was really trying to accomplish. Either way that was his prerogative and she really didn't care what he did in that department.

She turned to Bowyn once things were packed and gave him a thankful smile. [Color=8dc73f]"Thank you for catching us breakfast. I truly do appreciate it."[/color] While the smile was a little forced, her words were sincere. If he hadn't gone fishing then she wasn't sure what they would have ended up doing for breakfast. So having the fish was a major help.

[Color=8dc73f]"If you wish to continue trying to woo the newcomer so that you may bed her then that's fine, but you'll have to continue while we're on the road. We leave in fifteen minutes."[/color] She said as she turned to Elthrael, though the last part was directed at everyone. While she couldn't and wouldn't force anyone to follow, she was leaving in fifteen minutes and the others would have to make a choice to follow or not.

[Color=8dc73f]"Zephyrin, was it? While I don't care if you decide to join us, I will give you the same warning I've extended to everyone here. If you do anything to threaten the safety of this group, if you do something that puts us in danger, I will not hesitate to dispose of you. I'm not telling you this as some sort of fear tactic or threat to keep you in line. It's simply a fact and a promise."[/color] With that she gave the woman a grin and turned to take a fish to eat, but paused. [Color=8dc73f]"Oh and you can call me Kenia."[/color] She glanced over at her once again before turning back to the food and taking a bit to eat.
