Chapter 9

Lira noticed that her uncle had stopped pacing and she also notices that he looks upset upset about something.

"Uncle Thor, what's wrong and oh, by the way where's grandmother? She asked. Thor knew that he was going to have to tell his neice about what happened to her grandmother.

"Lira, I need to tell you something very important." He said then he led his neice over to the sofa then they both sat down.

"Tell me what uncle?" Lira asked.

"Lira, I am so very sorry to have to tell you this sweetie." Thor said.

"Tell me what uncle?" Lira asked again. Thor took a few deep breaths to calm his nervous.

"I don't understand uncle what do you want to tell me?" She asked.

"Sweetie, your grandmother is gone." Thor said sadly.

"Uncle, what do you mean that grandmother is gone?" Lira asked confused.

"Your grandmother was killed by a dark elf." Thor said.

"What? No! That's not true! I don't believe you! You're lying!" Lira screams and she ran out of the room tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Lira, come back." Thor called after his neice, but she kept on running. He sat back and he ran his hands through his blond hair. Jane sat beside him and she began rubbing his back for he had been through a lot.

Lira kept on running she wishes that she could go to her father, but she couldn't for she had to figure it out before she goes to her father.

She passed by her grandparents chambers and she decided to go in to see if her grandmother was there, but all she found was blood on the floor and a bloody sword. Lira realized that her uncle was telling the truth or she already knew that it was true for her uncle had never lied to her before. She ran back to the common room.

"Uncle Thor." Lira cried as she ran to him. He looks up and he sees his neice running towards him. He gets up and he goes to his neice. She throws her arms around her uncle and she cries into his chest. Thor began rubbing his neice's back trying to calm her down.
