For the following weeks, Lorena worked along side the monks, whilst keeping her distance from there. Something about their presence scared her, she saw them as a higher group of people. They had been here since before them. To the monks, they were out siders and Lorena did not feel as though she should approach them unless utterly necessary. Of course, she was worrying herself over nothing. Though she did not think like that.


The monks allowed those who had arrived from Aegis the chance to set themselves up just outside the temple walls. The land was flat and the visitors happily began to clear the area and build shelters. However, whilst Lorena watched them, she saw they ruined the land, much like they did back in Aegis. She cursed them for their irresponsibility and sought a monk. She explained the situation to them in hope that something would change.


Indeed it dido ¦


Not long after, the land was cleared and the monks built small homes which people could temporarily live in. Along with that, they created a small farm and logging camp, where the new people could collect basic materials and farm themselves some food. In her time at the temple, Lorena spent her days collecting apples from the trees which had fallen to the ground, and offered them to the people who woke from being saved from the monks. Each greeted her happily.


On a gloriously sunny day, one not much different than the rest, Lorena was making her rounds of the temple. Checking on those who had just arrived. There she spotted a man, at first glance he looked like a human but, after taking a moment to admire him, she saw he was an elf like herself. She bowed her head towards him, smiling. A smile brighter than normal. She nervously offered out an apple to him o Care for an apple?o


The man shook his head o No diola lleo ¦oho ¦n-o


o Oh, alright then.o Lorena interrupted. The stranger stood and stared at her for a moment, had she just cut him off mid-sentence and replied to him? Did she understand him? o Lle quena i'lambe tel' Eldalie?o the man spoke, rasing his eyebrow curiously. Lorena nods and smiles o It is unusual to find somebody else who speaks Elven, are you from Aegis?o she asked quietly. The stranger nods in return o Amin, Mani naa essa en lle?o


o Lorena Dneyres, your own?o


o Saiko, Saiko Rileyo he replied. He smiled once more and held out his hand o Care for a walk Lorena?o


o O..oh, certainly.o She places the apples back in her bad, taking his hand. She had not found somebody she could hold a comfortable conversation with before. She found she enjoyed his company and, within months they became a couple and as years past, they became married. As they did, they decided that perhaps was the time to settle down. Saiko acquired some land within the town of Ager, Renatus. There, they built a small home, surrounded by a huge wheat farm. Their life was simple, but enjoyable. Lorena would spend her time farming their land, collecting wheat to sell to others, and seeds to donate to surrounding farms where Saiko would work for the king, collecting his supplies and , in reward, would be given other supplies.


She enjoyed their lifestyle, but she had wound up living, surrounded by the race she disliked the most, humans. Living in their lands, she felt uneasy.


On a day where Saiko was away, and Lorena was tending to the farm, a strange man, human at that approached her. Wearing a long red coat and suit, he looked like a man of either importance, or he thought himself to be so.


He introduced himself as Brayden Roze. They spoke a short while, both describing their dislike of the human race, even though this stranger was human. o Perhaps I can interest you in a move?o Brayden asked o I own a home in ArmaLuna, an island far off. Open to all races. The home its self is rarely used and I wonder if you could give it some attention?o Lorena threw all caution out of the window. Normally she would say no to an offer from a stranger, but this fear of new people had been holding her back for some time. She nodded to the man and they travelled to ArmaLuna.


Once she had acquired the home from the human, she returned to Ager, to collect Saiko and lead them to their new home. He was as exited to move from their home as she was and now, this is where their life has brought themo ¦..
