    Private Tales Behind enemy lines..

    Sorai flashed a quick glance to Myr and nodded, the memory of Katyr slaughtering Rhea and a few city guards as he stole her away was one she tried not to conjure. "I know.." she frowned. Still, she doubted that elves treated their own the way humans treated their fellow men. Her brow rose as...

    Sorai listened in silence as she walked, taking in every word and trying and failing to fathom living a life such as he had. Such as Katyr had. So many trials and troubles, so many losses and such a long time to suffer them. But, also, such a long life to see and understand the world around them...

    Private Tales Behind enemy lines..

    Sorai was living on her nerves- traumatised, grief-stricken and terrified of what she may be yet to face, but there was no denying the sense of calm that fell over her when Myr assured her that Katyr would return home, no matter what. Nothing mattered to her more right now, than that. 'I cannot...

    Private Tales Behind enemy lines..

    Sorai's lips pressed into a thin line as she nodded in understanding. She was not as naive as she had been before she'd been stolen from her home, and she'd remain vigilant. She watched as Katyr's body was lifted from the ground, her chest squeezing. She hadn't been strong enough to carry him...

    Sorai's brow arched slightly as Myr offered his explanation, absorbing his words with a mixture of surprise and fascination. The idea that the forest itself had played a role in guiding her to this place, driven by its own ancient will, was a concept she had never considered before. It was as if...

    She was surprised to see the semblance of a smile on Myr's lips, surprised again by his comment and once more by the hand that he offered. Sorai looked up at him, her expression weary, and despite the sadness that shrouded the task ahead, she offered a small smile in return. "Yes.." she...

    Sorai clutched at her chest as though she might grip hold of her racing heart and slow it. Her eyes blinked away the bleariness as he spoke and she felt embarrassment creep into her cheeks, until he empathised with her and the shame dissipated. Myr looked as young as she did, it was easy to...

    Sleep came quickly for her, and she fell deeply. Katyr was there, amongst the trees, speaking to her though she couldn't hear him. She moved toward him, only to find he grew further away instead of closer. The sleeping girl murmured his name as in her mind she screamed it, running now as the...

    Sorai paused for only a moment as Myr spoke. She wasn't sure how it still surprised her, but that he and his kind could had senses so keen was something that would always fascinate her. She twisted her hair around her shoulder to wring out a few last droplets of water. "If there is time.. Then...

    Sorai's brows shot up as the image of murderous trees flashed across her mind, imagining the behemoths uprooting themselves and coming for her, their branches lashing out. "I had never thought to fear trees.." she commented quietly to herself, and she vowed then and there that she would always...

    Sorai flexed her feet with a soft sigh. They were still tender, but the pain was gone and she smiled gratefully at him. She followed his gaze toward the trees, her brow furrowing briefly as she searched for any sign of anyone in the trees, but it quickly dawned on her that he meant the trees...

    She offered him a small, tight smile at his answer, and tried not to squirm or flinch as he carefully removed the glass from her feet. Once again she everything she had believed about elves had been proven wrong, as once again she was offered kindness instead of being faced with violence and...

    Sorai's lips parted in awe as she watched the wound stitch closed, the warmth spreading through her foot bringing both relief and wonder. "It feels warm," she commented with intrigue, her voice tinged with amazement. "You're a healer?" she asked, looking up at Myr with wide eyes filled with...

    Private Tales Behind enemy lines..

    Sorai's heart ached as she glanced up and saw Myr knelt by Katyr's side. Anger, grief, and regret churned within her, a tempest of emotions that threatened to overwhelm her fragile composure. She clenched her jaw, swallowing back the bitter taste of resentment that rose in her throat. She felt...

    Sorai felt a flood of relief wash over her as Myr spoke, his soft words carrying a sense of understanding and compassion that helped ease the turmoil within her heart and mind. "Thank you," she murmured softly, her voice thick with gratitude. "I appreciate your kindness.. more than I can...
