Railek blinked and looked over at the woman. He smiled and fetched her clothes for her, handing them to her and taking no mind to her nudity. "Railek.. Milandu." he replied, bowing to her kindly. He obviously wasn't much of a talker, his bright orange eyes did a lot of the talking for him, or the hidden words behind his ever-present smile.

Red eyes peered through the bushes, looking about to see if it was safe. "You're good" Ilunera said, fluttering back to CheriChur's shoulder. The two sisters scrambled through the bushes, walking more alongside the trees. RuuZura grabbed CheriChur's shoulder as they neared a clearing. "It's the lake-Zura. I hear un-natural movements of the waves-Zura. Stay low and quiet-Zura" She whispered, grasping Elruna's rose tightly as they began to carefully step towards the bushes and trees that bordered the crystaline lake. Ilunera peeked out, then whispered what she saw to the girls. There's a guy with silver hair and stuff, a blue dragon, and an elven woman. She looks like a High Elf". The sisters nodded at eachother, then slowly stepped out of the bushes. "Uhm.. miss.." They said at the same time, looking at eachother nervously. "We were wondering if.." CheriChur began "If... if you knew anything about this rose. It's called Elruna's Rose-Zura" RuuZura finished, holding the rose out. Ilunera stood on RuuZura's wrists next to the rose. "And if you do know, you'll tell us everything you know about it." Ilunera said sternly, looking at the elven woman with a serious look on her face. "R-Right. Like she said" CheriChur sputtered, laughing softly and nervously. (Named the bat-creature Ilunera. Here's what the rose and she looks like. Elruna's Rose and Ilunera

Elunerose had put on her garments, then had trailed her fingers through her wet hair to get any snarls out. "Railek Milandu...Thou likes the sound of ye name..." She smiled at him. When she had heard two girls come out of the bushes to reveal the rose...She laughed at Ilunera whom was near them. "So thou has found thy rose...Where did thee get it young one?..." She asked calmly while making a gesture to Catiluye to hand her The Book of the Undead. The Zatkari obeyed, doing so by grabbing the book with his massive claw, then handed it to her. "What does thou wish to know about thy rose?..." She then remembered she had not introduced herself to them. "Ah! Forgive thee, thy name is Elunerose...Thy goddesses' veins flow within thine. Thou is a reincarnation of her worshiped dust." She said, eying Ilunera carefully.
She snickered, "Tell thee what thou knows about thy rose...Aye...Or I shan't tell thee anything about it..." She grinned placing her hood over her head.

( Picture of Railek: i233.photobucket.com/albums/ee296/TixeKylli/prommale.png ) He turned when the girls came out of the bushes. He chuckled. As they talked, he randomly twirled his white rose around in his fingers, and then tucked it between the folds on his shirts. He wandered to the side, saved a plant from death. Then he got up and turned back to them.

( Raliek ish cute! *glomporz*) Ilunera stood up straight. "This is the ancient altered version of Alruna's rose, the story they've passed down for a few centuries. Some people knew that when it began to evolve, it gave off power. More than they expected. The more power people took from it, the less chances it would evolve. Then they started to realize the bad in having that much power withi their reach, and hid it. People from everywhere searched for it, for good and bad. It was hard to tell if it was a normal rose, but a few people could tell." Ilunera said, softly petting the rose's petals. "Unfortunatley, this one won't evolve. The poor thing." She sighed, looking down at the rose. "W-we got it from the old woman who turned us into the undead. She said that it held very strong shadow and dark magic, and to never use it as a source of power. I didn't get it, but that's all she would say-Zura" RuuZura said. "I've heard rumors about it when serving my customers. They say if you split it in half, then still get the same amount of power in each half, but I don't think it's true." CheriChur added, fiddling with her thumbs behind her back

Elunerose simply shook her head slightly, pointing down to her necklace which glowed brightly now. "Thou old woman whom you speak of was part of a scene from which had taken a twin flower from thy goddesses grave..." She began to speak, explaining what the other twin was by opening up The Book of The Dead. "For you see young one...There is a twin of it...Larger, yet not evolved fully that was also taken from thy goddesses grave. It had been a part of a large collection of mysterious rose petals, roses in full bloom, and more of different kinds whom were just seedlings." She stopped talking for a moment, turning over the first page within the book, revealing its larger twin. She had withdrew the flower from within The Book of The Dead, then handed the book over to Catiluye.
She laughed softly, watching the Zatkari shake its head slightly at her. 'Dragons' as the humans called them pretty much hated carrying anything, yet they'd obey even the Highest of elves considering they were used as close friends during the Ancient wars. She looked over at the two young girls in front of her, now with a serious expression upon her face. "Thou sees this larger twin glowing brightly compared to its smaller one?" She asked them, taking a step forward so they could see it better within the dark. "Ilunera, give thee thy twin rose for it belongs with its twin...The rose was once complete which had held incredible power a few centuries ago. I, Elunerose am to be the carrier of this rose for it has some of thy goddesses remains spread about on its petals...tis' why it glows so strangely." She held out her right hand with an open palm so Ilunera could give it to her.
She now explained about the Ancient wars, plus how her father, Xavier had tried to take over her home while it was still young with many Zatkari, High elves, plus commoners alike whom were living there. She also explained a lot of the history about the undead that now roamed the land because they were turned into slaves for Xavier to command them by. She explained everything about how The Book of The Dead was left to her care, plus how her friends died right in front of her very eyes...She began to tell about her long lost lover...Yet she couldn't. Parting with him was the hardest thing she had had to do during the wars. She explained how she was a rebirth of the great goddess Elune, plus how she has to go about bringing Undead, including the innocent into The Book of The Dead for revenge.
"Now does thou understand?...Thy rose must be complete to conceal thy father's soul within this book...If it tis' not thy land could be destroyed too if tis' true about the rumors being spread about that he had escaped..." She said, tears traveling down her cheeks. "It tis' why my name is Elune...rose I am to be the carrier of this rose...I have no other purpose but to make sure that this rose is safe within the goddesses chamber's once again...If not this world is doomed..." She said, almost trembling at the thought of it. "Thou is a practicer of thy dark arts as well...I know ever spell within The Book of The Dead...Every spell ever written to prevent anyone to access thy goddesses chamber's...Thou will do anything to keep anyone or anything out of it...Thou is a High Elf, worshiped by many...But I wish it not be so. I have thy goddesses power flowing through thy veins...As well as her image...Does thou understand?..." She asked them, still holding out her open palm. All she wanted was peace...Not wars to start over again...

Ilunera took the rose with great care. She nodded, listening to her story. She smiled softly with worry. "This rose will be gaurded with my life and magic. " She said, bowing before the High Elf. RuuZura stood silent with her expressionless face. "All is born with a purpose-Zura. All should be greatful they have it. Somtimes, All think they have a disgraceful or lousy purpose-Zura. But yet, all do not realize that that lousy and disgraceful purpose is the one that is the most influencial, honorable, and greatest purpose of them all-Zura. As the gaurd of Elruna's rose, you should not cry because it is your purpose-Zura. It probobly the most honorable purpose in life somone like you could have. you should be highly proud of yourself-Zura" She said wisley, looking at Elunerose with a gentle but sweet face. Next to RuuZura, CheriChur stood, swaying gently back and forth while twidling her fingers out of boredom.

Elunerose shook her head slightly, "Nay...Tis' not something thou is proud of...Tis' nothing to be proud of...I'd tell ye more about mi husband but it hurts so..." Her voice trailed off. She went up to Catiluye, looking deeply into the Zatkari's eyes. "Old friend...We should go before The Book of The Dead takes no heed to these Undead...Even the innocent pay..." She sighed, her eyes now traveling to the ground.

RuuZura trailed behind Elunerose. "Atleast.... do not cry. Crying is a morbid weakness to all... and I know you can hold those tears back-Zura." She said, trying to comfort her. She took her hand and looked up at her with her pure white eyes. CheriChur now held the rose with Ilunera on her shoulder, watching them from where RuuZura stood beforehand. CheriChur stepped forward a bit. "If.. if you're going somewhere... may we.. maybe... come with you?" She asked with a slightly quiet voice.

Elunerose was startled about the question, the thought of it brought a smile to her face. "Thou...Would come with thee?...But what about ye building?..." She asked while gently patting Catiluye's bright blue scales.
