Hunter's Voice

Prologue

"Papa!" two young elf children called out as their father walked up the trail to their family sized house on Far Strider Island. Their father, a large muscular elf with flaming red hair and green eyes, like any other of their race. Their mother poked her head out the door and smiled warmly.

"Welcome back Jeroh." Their father grinned then scooped the 2 children into his arms.

"Father! Guess what happened while you were away!" his oldest and only son said excitedly.

"What happened Hisin?" Jeroh turned his head to look at his son. His son had inherited his mother's dark blue hair. Hisin grinned.

"Celane is going to join the Warlock class with me!" Jeroh flicked his ears with amusement.

"Really now?" A loud chirping sound was heard and the small family turned to see a red raptor tilting his head at them as he observed them.

"Where did that beast come from?" their mother, Mylan gasped as she narrowed her green eyes at the raptor.

"This is Voin. My pet." Jeroh replied setting the 2 children onto the ground. He petted his daughter's head soothingly as she gazed at the carnivore creature with a twinkle in her eyes. His daughter had red hair that was up to her shoulders. She had a small but strong body build, giving her the body of a Hunter.

"What class will you train in Hecatei?" he finally asked. Hecatei turned her gaze to her father.

"A Hunter like you papa! Then we can go and hunt together when I finish training!" Mylan chuckled then frowned.

"Jeroh? What's wrong?" Hecatei and Hisin looked up at their father, he was looking up the road then snapped his gaze to his family.

"Get inside now." Mylan ushered the 2 children inside as their father darted up the road. Voin close behind him.

"Mama what's going on?" Hisin asked. Hecatei's ears drooped as did Hisin's when they heard a shout then the broken yelp of a dying animal.

"Run!" Their father's voice called out before it was silenced. Mylan trembled then moved them to the back door, slipping her dagger into its sheath on her hip. She unlocked the backdoor then slipped outside, Hisin and Hecatei following just as the front door was kicked open. Mylan grabbed her children's hands as they all ran. A knife lodged itself into the tree beside Hecatei's head. Mylan pushed her children forward.

"Run to the Spire!" She told them then turned and left them.

"Hecatei! We have to go!" Hisin told her then they both took off. When they arrived to the Spire the guards were happy to see them then stopped smiling when they saw the fear in their green eyes.

"We were attacked at our home. Papa and Mama told us to run while they stayed." Hisin managed to say.

" Go and help them." A mage snapped quickly. The guards nodded then took off.

"Come inside children." The male mage spoke softly.

When the guards came back it was with sad news. Jeroh and Mylan had both been killed but their father's pet, Voin had lived. One of the Silvermoon guards had handed Hecatei their mother's necklace.

"This was all that was left." He had muttered before going to report the loss. Hecatei looked at the necklace. It a necklace with a Scythe charm on it. There was ancient writing on the scythe but no one had been able to read it. Hisin tilted his head then took the necklace and slipped it on his younger sister.

"We've got to become the best blood elf Warlock and Hunter ever. For mother and father ok?" Hisin told her as they huddled in the Spire. Hecatei nodded.

"For mama and papa."

What they all didn't know was a Night elf male rogue was watching them from the safety of the small cliff, his young son sitting with him.

"We must destroy these Blood elves if we wish to be free my son, Konar." Konar nodded.

"Ok father." His son replied before the 2 got onto the griffon and vanished into the sky.
