Goodbye? Once again?

Post by Crimson Knightmare »

Drevlin sighed as he looked at sylvana for the last few moments before she lft him once again that could last several months. Only a few moons until he became a father, let alone a father to two drow. She wore her usual purple robes a new symbol of a golden dragon on her back. Her eyes were soft, glowing gently in the moonlit sky. Her ebony skin beamed, her white hair flowing with the gentle wind. A rapier hung loo-sly around her slender waist, a giant shield even to Drevlin hanged against her back. Amazingly it weighed nothing imbued by their magic together alone. -Love-. He kissed her passionately speaking the words that cant be said by mortal men.

He embraced her like that night month's ago when he was slowly dieing. He left her temporarily reentering the temple and came out shortly after seeing Sylvana leaning against the stones of the giant structure. Placing the various objects on the ground, he went to Sylvana, her head bowed her white long hair covering her face. Drevlin slowly moved his hand to her face, moving her hair from her face. Golden tears rolled down her ebony skin. Gently grabbing her waist, pulling her close to him and hugged her tightly her body trembling the tears rolling down.

"Sylvana, no it will be okay!" he replied calmly.

They both stood their for several moments before they spoke next.

"When you come back we will have a suitable home for our shildern." he said sternly, Sylvana only nodded. They both stood their for several moments Drevlin finally moved away and retrieved the objects he had placed on the ground moments before. One of the objects radiated energy off it the moons light beaming upon it. He held the great axe in his had. Jet black axe of moon. The shaft was decorated with black leather forming a comfortable grip. At the top of the axe it ended with a metal ball at the top. At first it looked like a mace but as he raised it in the moons light still barely visable the magically imbued ethreal blades could be seen forming a complete circle in a ghostly blue hue under the moon. A gift from his goddess which he kept closs to him, a symbol of his faith and who he was. A sheild hung around his neck and shoulder that could easily be drawn when he drew his second axe that hanged from his belt. He still wore his bright baby blue robes a set of full plate hidden beneath. With those things prepared he lifted a bag and slung it over his shoulder, and went back to Sylvana. She was similarly doing the same a smaller bag upon her slender shoulders. The two looked at each other a reassuring smile on each face.

~With that the two lovers left the place that served as a home for so many years. Drevlin had built a large temple structure several dozen miles from the koalisk swamps (a race of lizard folk who threatened the human population) and thousands of miles from Daris and the kingdom of Dasar.~

The path twisted and turned slowly going down the hill from the temple. It would take two days to reach the bottum, if no nomadic groups showed up. THe night's were quiet and the chilled air from the mountains could be felt. Winter would be here soon but after this time when Sylvana returned to him (with their two childern) this very spring they would retire from their travels. Night had passed uneventful (thankfully) but both knew and were prepared for what was to come when they entered the swamps. A short distance from the swamps they rested, Drevlin reciting a prayer of protection of the area as they rested they slept in each others arms as they had countless nights before.

Drevlin woke up just before the sun peaked above the mountains preparing various spells well suited and gruisome that was needed for this task. He sighed as he felt power run through his body, the all to familiar spell used to slay these creatures. He closed his eyes as memories came to him. THe blood and gore that splashed from his enemies as he casted this spell.... -Implosion- Memories of his now lost friend tempted by evil and power. Tarico his wizard friend.. His closest one since he arrived here had spent a week in the caves with him had now vanished and or killed himself. By this time while he sat there, Sylvana awoke sitting upright. Her dress was crinkled uncomfertabley as she adjusted her self. Drevlin did no hear her call let alone she was staring at him. His muscular shoulders, slumped the sun slowly rising the light slowly raised above his shoulders lighting the ground before her feat. She tried to watch the light as it slowly rose following her dress to her neck finally reaching her face, the light burned her eyes, all these years with Drevlin watching the sun together did little.

"Drev..." she called standing to her feet. "Drev?" she whispered again walking to him, sitting next to him wrapping her hand around his waist. It was then she saw his face. His face was full of tears and now his shoulders slumped, his face dropping to his hands and he wheaped. She continued calling out to him but he did not reply. She cried helpless to help her lovers troubled soul

//Hey, not too bad! My only real complaint I supose is that I found you used the words "he" and "her" way too much, but besides that, I enjoyed the read!
