Adrion walked aways from where he began. while he walked to the ancient tower, he fastest and he medidated night and day. when he got to the tower, he killed some animals and he had gutted them and he skinned them so he can eat. he held two rabbits and he then cooked them with his own hands and then started to eat so he can meditate for the night.

when it darkened, adrion found a place where he can sit for the night. he then sat down and he started to meditate about his life and what has happened to him. he started to chant in drow and then prayed in demonic. he then had the visions that happened every time he meditated. he saw his family in heaven always hoping and asking when he was going to come. he then saw the day that they were killed. he saw it from the sky as if he was god. he saw people getting tortured, raped, and killed. he wanted it to stop, but it didn't. he then saw everyone dead and everyone piled up and burned. he saw himself barely alive on the top of the pile and then the people setting the pile on fire.

Adrion then woke up seeing that he had burned everything around him. he got up and walked around. he then saw shadows in the darkness watching him with the evil eyes.

Shadow was walking through the woods just hardly able to see anyhting in front of his face. While walking he saw a glowing light a head. He slowly walked to it hoping it was a small hut with people that would shelter him for the night. When he arrived he saw that the woods around in the are of a glowing figure were burned away and also he noticed that the figure was staring at two red glowing eyes. He then realized he just had walked into the open are and quickly backed up and hid in the shadows and watched to see what was going to happen and also hoping that the figure didn't sense his presence.

Adrion walked to where he saw the eyes thinking that there was someone there. but he then saw that it dissappered from sight and so he excused it as a illusion. he walked back and set up a few targets at diffrent spots of the tower and he then set up a few that would shoot out. he then walked where he saw the eyes and he felt like something was there but it helped him fight better. he then looked at diffrent targets and then with great speed, he whipped out his master slingshot and he also took out some bullets and shot at rapid speed hitting each one in the center. he wanted to change pace so he took out his spike bullets and then shot those at high speed.

once he was done, he went out and picked up all of the bullets he shot. still thinking that there was someone out there. so out of curiosity, he called out in his booming voice that shook the place a little, "If anyone is out there, please come out becuase i won't hurt you."

Caim was flying high above the forest, training on his flight skills. Those winged beasts make this look so easy! All this flapping, balance, air resistance..... All of it! Yet, I must train, in case I ever have to use this transformation in battle...... Because it might give me an advantage..... Flying around, he thought he heard a voice yell, "If anyone is out there, please come out becuase I won't hurt you!"

Flying around, looking for the source of that yell, Caim saw a fire elemental, obviously he was training, for there were several pellets. Landing, Caim said, "I'm Caim. Chances are, I am not the person, or otherwise, that you were looking for. I could help, hence the wings."

Shadow slid on his cloak of stealth and ran around to the back of Caim and the elemental. Shadow slowly revealed himself from the shadows. "Sorry to disrupt you. But I was just looking for a place to rest for the night, but I can see as this spot is yours so I will leave you be." Before turning to leave he looked to Caim.

"Say Caim didn't know you were a half breed. Did you know all along you were or did you just recently find out?" Shadow stood quietly waiting for a reply.

"Just recently. It's more of an I can transform back and forth as I please, but you have the gist of it. Flying is much harder than it looks." Turning to the elemental, Caim said, "Obviously you do not wish to be disturbed. I'll leave you be." Looking at Shadow again, Caim said, "As to you, may we meet again in the future. It always seems to happen." Turning around, Caim started to walk out of area.

"Caim wait...I was hoping now that you are like my freinds and I. I was hoping we could be frineds. We were in the temple of darkness I would like to stay friends and not be enemies anymore. But sometime down the path we will have to face each other in the war you know that right." Shadow held out his hand for a frinedly handshake in hopes that Caim would be his friend now instead of his enemy.

"Agreed. Now that I know I am not fully human, I can more readily accept differences." Walking up to Shadow, Caim shook his hand. "I also know we will eventually have to fight, but I will be prepared for it. Although some of your friends might not accept this as readily as others."

Adrion looked at both of the people that had come from the sky and the darkness. he looked at both of them with his fiery eyes and said "Nah both of you weren't bothering me. and Caim, if you are training, you can stay here and train with me. and I don't know your name but there is a room at the top of the tower that is secluded from here that you can get your rest without me disturbing you. so why don't we all share this area?" he held out his hands and held them out to both people hoping to shake their hands and continued, "it's okay to shake my hands fellas, I only burn what i want since i can control any part of my bodies flames. My name is vardsbe, adrion vardsbe. And we all can be friends, since all of my have died and rotted alreay. beings that i am 5000 years old, and i am one of the damned that will nither enter heaven nor hell."

"I understand Caim. I just hope they see you as an ally now instead of an enemy all the time." Shadow shook hand and gave a hearty smile. Then he turned to Adrion and shook his hand.

"I feel as if we have met before..." looking curiously "Anyway I would rather not stay in the tower to do recent events that have occured here not long ago. Caim knows all to well and must feel the same way if he was told the exact same thing." then turning to Caim. "Am I right Caim?" Shadow flashed back to the recent fight in the tower where he was once imprisoned.

"Now please excuse me I am going to go get some food from the river and eat. I am starving."

"No worry shadow, i got that covered for you already." said adrion he pointed to where he was eating. "There's still several cooked animals over there you can have. And You are thinking of my friend, Blade. He had came here and fought againest a huanted armor when his body changed and the armor made him forget his real name and make him think his name is blade now and he will be here soon to help train me."

Shalura wandered silently through the forest thinking quietly to herself, he white dove, Aravis, flying just above her head. Shalura wasn't looking where she was going and didn't really care. She stopped nad leaned against a tree gazing up through the canopy of leaves above her. Aravis landed softly on a branch above her head cooing softly. Shalura closed her eyes trying to drop off, even if this was not the place. It was getting late and she couldn't stay up all night. She sank down into a sitting position. Aravis blinked and looked down at her cooign again. Shalura ignored her and began drifting into an uneasy sleep. Avaris fluttered down and lay down in Shalura's lap, she ruffled her feathers and settled herself into a sleep too.

In her dream Shalura sat atop a high mountain, mist was covering her on every side obscuring her vision, from what she could see she must be in a cloud. She looked up at the soudns of an echoey voice nearby her. She looked up. A woman was floating throught the kist towards her.
"Mother?"
The woman was smiling, Shalura reached out to touch her but she began floating away again, Shalura wanted to run after her but she was trapped on a peak and she couldn't see all the way down, she didn't know how high it was.
"Wait! Come back"
Her mother disapeared in the fog and Shalura gave up.
"Why, why won't you come home?" But it wasn't her voice that spoke from her lips "please"

In realality Shalura was muttering in dragonish and had woken up Aravis, rather than speaking she seemed to be singing. Aravis pecked her on te head and her eyes snapped open.
"Aravis?" She muttered "they're alive, I know it"
Aravis blinked at her and put her head to one side in confusion, she cooed softly.
"They want me to come home" she muttered rubbing her eyes groggily "but I don't know where home is"

"Thanks...I really appreciate the hospatality here. I have been defending and fighting with my frineds for so long I couldn't remember the last time I have eaten." Shadow walked over to the cooked animals and began to eat. He stuffed his mouth with food and swallowed it from being so hungry. He ate ten percent of the meat from being so hungry. "Oh man that was delicious." Shadow patted his belly and stood up.

"I feel like I could fight a whole army of orcs now. Anyone wanna train. I could use some fun right now."

"Now that's what I'm looking for!!" Said adrion somewhat excited "Those animals I cuaght myself and cooked without any fire but whats on me. so I know that my meals are always garenteed fresh and such. but lets fight." he continued. He took out his long sword in his right hand and he tok out his bone hilted dagger in the other. "I've been waiting a long time for someone to have the courage to finally train with me i almost went crazy." he said "Now let's train."

Shadow was extatic he needed some fun. "How about we make it a three way match. The three of us free for all." While talking Shadow pulled out his Fist of Mazzer and his serated chakram and equiped his elven sheild over his fist of mazzer ready to block and then retaliate with his blunt object. "Well I am ready to go at it, how about it Caim three way fight free for all. You know it has been a while since we fought it would give us a chance to learn each others moves and all."

Shadow stood their and waited for a reply while shfting his gear around for the fight.

"You know what? Why don't I up the anty? instead of me using my dagger, I will just use my little friends that i just found before everyone came." said Adrion as he put away his dagger. he uttered two spells under his breath. the first one made his blade erupt in a bright flame. the second spell caused a metal golem to appear. "I would like both of you to meet my tough friend here, greed." he said.

Taking out his Blood Sword, Caim smiled. "Obviously agreed. Time for you to see what I can do in midair...." Flying up, Caim was pinpointing the best place to strike the golem. "Nice friend you got there. Very resilient...." He's probally going to use that as a meat.... errr.... metal shield. How can you get past something like that? All I could do is uselessly strike it.... The only spell I know is Vampire Touch, yet that thing dosen't have a life force.... Caim suddenly dive bombed it, although he didn't use his sword. His claws came out, and he slashed it mercilessly. It didn't have much of an impact.

"Well it seems like I am not the only one with the flame blade spell." Shadow uttered his spell and his fist of mazzer caught fire. "This spell is going to increase my weapon just slightly a bit more than normal. Oh and that metal golem isn't going to last very long against me." Shadow reclipped his chakram to his side and formed a fireball in his left hand. "Time to melt your friend." Shadow rapidly fired fireballs at the metal golem creating red spots all over it's body making it weaked in those spots.

"Need I remind you metal melts and I am part fire elemental so I can get rid of that golem anytime." Shadow stopped firing fireballs and then charged at Adrion ready tackle him with his sheild but instead the metal golem ran in fornt of Shadow and collided with him creating a giant ringing noise within the golem. "Owww...that is going to leave a mark."

"I think you have misunderestimated my golem shadow." chuckled adrion. he then charged at shadow and made his sword come down. but at the last second, he pulled away from shadow and jumped up at chaim. he said another spell and a storm came. but instead of regular rain, it rained acid. adrion didn't care if it melted the golem. it will still fight until it is completly gone. adrion then tried to stab caim in every spot he could reach.

Shadow stood up straight and wobbled around a bit. "No matter." Shadow put down his sheild and attached his fist of mazzer back on his back and pulled out his bow and frost arrows. "You know what I may not be able to affect you with my own fire attacks so that is why I carry frost arrows with me to help balance out the elemental strength."

Shadow knocked an arrow and fired it at Adrion and then knocked another one and shot it at Caim. "Better watch out Caim I am coming for you know." Shadow fired four more arrows. Two at Adrion and two at Caim. Shadow then put his bow back on his back and formed his phenix wings on his back and flew up. "Better watch Caim your not going to escape from me." Shadow picked up his weapon and sheild and flew into the air.
