A/N: I got REALLY bored, so I decided for all of you that wonder what happened in the one hundred years that Rhiadrieal disappeared for, here you go. And for those of you who don't know, you may want to read my first story (the beginning of the series) Rhiadrieal and then maybe even Rhiadrieal's War. So, this is set (it begins) right after Rhiadrieal runs away. I'm going to write this from Rhiadrieal's point of view (most of the time. You'll be able to tell when it isn't), so enjoy!

Prologue

I pulled my sword out of Pereth's dead body, horrified by what I had done. He attacked you, a voice said in my head. Your actions are justified. I let my sword clatter to the forest floor, and my mind reeled. I didn't even know if I really wanted to kill him. But, he had wreaked Eva's life, I could tell, and killed Sdhorim, the wolf I had spent so much time protecting, and that made me hate him, more than I did before.

I knew Legolas had seen me. What could I tell him? Nothing. There was nothing I could tell him, nothing that would make it better.

"Rhiadrieal, I-" he began to say, when I reached him. I stood on the tips of my toes and kissed him gently, a goodbye kiss, I knew I had to run.

I fumbled with the raven necklace around my neck, I had nothing else to give him, besides my love. I pressed it into his hand, closing his fingers around it.

"I love you," I whispered in his ear and ran off into the woods.
