Ron Steward makes his way through the forest, then to the river.
Ron Steward: "It should be here, a yes!"
Ron Steward jumps into a rowboat and goes downstream to the sea.
Xella Steward wonders how she can be such a fool.
Ron Steward rows at the fastest pace he's able too, unable to take the thought of Xella in danger out of his mind.
Xella Steward swims out of the cave, surfacing at the nearby island.
Ron Steward spots a seemingly an apparently barren small island, "This is the one, the entrance to the cave."
Ron Steward hears an unexpected but familiar splash, "Xella!! Why did you leave the cave?"
Xella Steward looks at her Ron as he docks the small boat.
Ron Steward smiles unable of being angry with her.
Ron and Xella |
Ron Steward: "You should not have!"
Xella Steward scoots onto the land settling on a tree.
Xella Steward: "The cave was too closed in,,,,,,,, I hated it."
Ron Steward: "Yes, that's true, but still .."
Ron Steward sits by her side.
Xella Steward holds his hand, "Ron, did you tell the Druid King?"
Ron Steward holds both her hands and kisses her softly, "Yes Xella, I did!"
Ron Steward: "He's sending his elven scouts, but we need something from you. We need to know where to find the Demon!"
Xella Steward blinks, then looks away, "I...I don't know where he is."
Ron Steward arches an eyebrow, "But nulma, you were there with him! Where did that happen?"
Xella Steward looks out to sea, fingering the small stone Ryn had given her, knowing that she can summon him, or her scale can be used to track me."
Xella Steward looks at her Ron, eyes glowing softly, "He trusted me."
Ron Steward smiles at her, not that he didn't expect her being loyal to a friend, any friend.
Ron Steward: "It only seemed so. He used the friendship you offered for his own ends."
Xella Steward: "Then he would of given me a fake home, not his real location," sighs softly knowing that a small part of her hopes he is only faking his evil.
Xella Steward tucks the stone in a small pouch at her waist.
Ron Steward: "Xella, a Demon can use a half-truth to make up a larger lie."
Ron Steward: "It was all part of his plot."
Xella Steward looks at him and nods, "I will tell you, only if you promise, never to go there."
Xella Steward: "I had told Ryn about you, I will not have you harmed for trusting him."
Xella Steward looks at her Ron, "Without you I am no better than a Demon myself."
Ron Steward looks into her eyes, "Don't say that, don't ever say that. You're no demon but my soul, and i would be lost myself without you!"
Ron Steward kisses her softly
Xella Steward holds his hand and kisses him softly
Xella Steward closes eyes, waiting for his word,
Ron Steward shows a decided look in his face, "Xella, if you tell me the Demon's whereabouts iIpromise not to ever go there ... except if your life were at risk. And I will be telling King Druid. Is that an acceptable deal?"
Xella Steward nods slightly, "It is."
Xella Steward sighs softly and smiles at him.
Ron Steward: "Then we have a deal!"
Ron Steward: "Let's sign it with a kiss."
Ron Steward giggles aiming to ease the mood
Xella Steward kisses him sweetly, relaxing,
Xella Steward leans on him and sighs, "Forgive me Ryn," looks at Ron and tells him, "The Shadow Lands, in the northern Mountains of the Shadow Lands."
Ron Steward: "The Shadow Lands! Quite fitting ... I will spend the night here and tomorrow first light go meet the Druid."
Xella Steward nods and curls up with her Ron, planning to go with him.
Ron Steward wraps his arms around her trying to comfort her, she's been through so much.
