Many lives were lost that day, the day the Burning Legion invaded the world. There were Night Elves who stayed to protect their world and there were some who had fled. Those that did flee were Warriors, Scholars and Matrons with younglings and yearlings. A small group of Night Elves, led by the ancient warrior group, called the Silvers, found solace and peace in a small part of the world far from their polluted continent and ravages of fouled everything.
There, the matrons could raise the orphans in a new world, safe away from the backwards mind of Night Elf Monarchy and the Silvers could continue to train those willing to protect the innocent. Soon, the Silvers became farmers, hunters, gathers. They learned to respect their world, and their new forest, creating a small primitive colony of peace. Though, the colony was to answer to a male leader, their Comda, or captain.
For 100 years, the colony enjoyed peace and quiet. The scholars had taught their next generation about the world, and the matrons had become mothers and grandmothers to many children. The younglings and yearlings went about to make more Night Elves and they thrived. But their peace was shattered by the arrival of the Highbourne, which was met with great shock on both sides. The Codma of that time and a Highbourne named Dath'Remar Sunstrider came to a peace pact... The Silvers were called once again as warriors to protect the royal family and nobles.
In exchange, the Silvers would be allowed to live in what was known as Quel'thalas, as long as the Codma and his family served the king and his family...
As time went by, the Silvers adjusted to the new role they played in a society again. Their scholars were able to offer assitance to the Highbourne, and the Highbourne returned the favor with money and a way of living with all the new changes forced on them, like last names and regal attire at formal functions. Very few Night Elves were allowed in the gates of the Highbourne capitol, as Silvers allowed very few visitors to their precious home.
Soon Dath'Remar Sunstrider stepped down as king, allowing his son, Anasterian Sunstrider to claim title to the throne. And as the Codma known as Blackfury Trueheart stepped down, his son, Amurn'un Trueheart took up Codma, and guarding the new king with his life. The two were very good friends, and even helped the other with love and relationships. But, each had his duty to their people, and to each other.
Each elf celebrated the birth of children, both born on the same day, one at dawn and one at night. As Anasterian celebrated a son, Amurn'un was ready to try for another and felt disgraced at what he had created, a daughter.
There had never been a Comda female before. Amurn'un was stuck with his daughter, as his wife had died due to complications after birth. Eventually, disgrace and shame had turned to joy and pride as his daughter grew from a tiny little helpless prune to a beautiful young elf. The Silvers had taught her everything they could before she was the first Night Elf to be accepted into the arms of the Blood Knights to be trained further in the ways of fighting, and one step closer to her destiny...
