Amongst the trees—the graves—of the Emerald Graves walked an elf. Step after hesitating step took him pass a tree and then another followed by another–a never-ending row of breathing stones.

Blood of my blood…

He tried with all of his might to not glance at the trees but even his might was not enough—and when he did gaze at a tree a cringing fell upon the fair-haired elf—his grip on his staff tightening to a knuckle white.

Blessed he is by the mark placed upon him by his clan, a symbol representing one of his elvhen god—Falon'Din.

He looked up towards the sky partially hidden by the graves and he spoke his sorrows: "Emma u uth. Halani, enansal ar suledin. Emma uIr abelas…"

"Emma Vir'eth…"


Wandering in the snow and through the cold of Emprise du Lion trudged an elf. As told by the scowl on their face anger (or could it be a thirst for vengeance…) seemed forever etched in the veins of the dark-haired elf—whose red grip on their lone dagger could not possibly tighten ever more or else either handle or hand would break from such force.

Cursed he is from the mark by his race, a symbol of one of their gods—Dirthamen.

He looked up towards the sky littered with holes and he roared his threats: "Ar tu na'lin emma mi! El shem'nan!"

Vir Banal'ras… (Way of Shadow)

"Emma Harel…"


Both elvhen felt incomplete, a single from a set of two. They were fair and dark, light and darkness, the twin soul to each other—Falon'Din and Dirthamen as by their clan. What was unbeknown to them was that they were within reach of each other yet they continue to be far away for both Harel and Vir'eth thought the other to be dead.

The only thing left to remind Vir'eth of his brother was the dagger attached to the end of his staff. The dagger was of a pair he gave to Harel as a gift of adulthood-the set it belonged to was no more.

The only thing left to remind Harel of his brother was the sole purpose of gaining revenge. To avenge the soul taken from him for the only one who truly understood and comforted him was no more.

The time apart has taken much of a toll on them; it was now time for the brothers to become the Twins in Shadow, to become Two once more…or if death plays its hand will a brother forever wander the land as Sa.


"Inquisitor, my spies have reports about an elf wandering about in Emprise du Lion…"

"…Ma Harel. Dareth."
