Lalei watched as the group saw the gruesome, gory scene unfold. Bewilderment and shock and grief struck them hard...except the cocky one. She raised an eyebrow, why he was here as a chosen one, she did not know. She wished she had control over who was chosen, but they were deemed the chosen ones since the writing of both of the original prophecies. She had no power over it. All she could do is guide them in the right direction, and hope they learn to work together. 

After she gave them all a minute or two to process, questions started pouring in. The top two being why she didn’t warn others, and why them. She looked at the one called Kassandra and then to the other faces. 

[color=yellow] “I know this is a lot to process, chosen ones. I know there are many unanswered questions and I will do my best to answer them. As to why I didn’t raise the alarm for others, it wouldn’t have done any good. It would have resulted in even more death than has already occurred. Vaeros is the most powerful adversary this world has ever and will ever see. No army can stand in his way. 

I know this is daunting, and you are scared, and you should be. Like I said, it is possible that not all of you will make it through this. You have the worlds tools at your disposal. I will be visiting the major cities in visions, much like I did you. I will be informing them of the situation, though they likely know already. I will request that they make resources and manpower and firepower available at your request. I don’t expect any resistance on anyone’s part. You will have allies, and men and woman willing to lay their lives on the line to help you, to a point. That point is when Vaeros finds out about you. You will be hunted, once Vaeros learns of your existence and identities. When that happens, there are no guarantees. When Vaeros places that bounty on your heads, people may be fearful of helping you. It is up to you to inspire confidence, and then they will rise up and fight with you. 

To answer the question as to why you specifically were called, I can honestly say I have no idea. Your fates were chosen and sealed at the moment of the writing of the prophecy. I can tell you that there are qualities in each of you that are called to this dangerous task. You are chosen for a reason. You must learn to work together, as a team. You all must become leaders. For only then will you stand a chance against Vaeros.” [/color] 

She paused, letting the group process all this information. 

[color=yellow] “Vaeros is currently still in Polis, but I need you first to go to Azgada, the home of the elves. There you will find a warm welcome, resources, and combat training. You can learn to function and fight as a team, instead of bickering and flailing. I will reach out to each race, and tell them to send some of their best fighters to work with you there.

I must say, brave ones. You have already made me proud just by showing up. Not everyone would rise to this call, but you have each shown true courage. Together, you can win this fight. Together, you will beat Vaeros and save Valeroma.” [/color]

As she finished speaking, the wind picked up again. When it died, Lalei was gone as quick as she appeared, leaving the chosen ones alone to figure out where to go once more.
