Nuada heard her voice in his mind and knew she was still alive. Nuada felt new hope in his heart. He knew he'll reach to her in time.
And begged the dragon to fly as fast as he can.
Winks speed almost kept up with the dragon. He wanted to save the Queen of Bethmoora as Much as Nuada did.
No Elf deserve this fate no matter how much Wink disliked her. He will do whatever he can to save hos best friends wife.
"Cecelia hang on! im coming"! Nuada shouted." stay alive Darling..for me".
"I'm almost there"!.
Nuada tore through the forests and mountains of the dying land caused by mankind.
it led him to the sea the Horses footprints stopped There was no trail in the sand which led to a dead end.
Nuad felt like moving further but he had a gut feeling that She's around here somewhere. And Wink confirmed that his gut feeling his correct.
'Sire"! Wink said I've caught her scent the humans have left her here somewhere.
The dragon landed on the ground and Nuada ran towards the shore.
. Nuada's vision was blinded with tears As he called out for his Queen Fearing that the humans have killed her off and buried her in the sand.
Cecelia heard someone calling her. She got some strength left but wasn't sure if she can be heard. She opened her eyes she recognized The voice..Could it be? Yes..It's Nuada! Her love.
"Nu..ada". Cecelia said weakly but her voice was like a whisper.
She heard her husband panicked voice calling out to her as much as she tried to speak She couldn't shout. Due to being in the cold water for too long and her injuries that kept stinging.
Wink sniffed around like a puppy dog Wink caught the scent of Cecelia's blood in his nose
Nuada was horrified by the sight. She has lost a lot of blood The humans have badly wounded her by the look of it. And Nuada sunk to his knees. Slamming his fist in the sand.
"She's still alive Sire" Wink roared "I know She is out here somewhere but why can't I detect her? dammit"!
Nuada looked at his friend with a tear soaked face.
"But where could she possibly be"? Nuada asked panicked.
"I don't know Wink said I really don't...wait! Up there" Wink pointed to the large rock.
chains were visible around a huge rock.
The salty water must have cloaked her scent but Wink knew The humans have left her there to drown.
"Sire! I've found her but we have to hurry before the water rises furthe"r! Nuada looked at The direction Wink was pointing and both charged towards the rock.
The water rised and Cecelia held her breath as the water went up
cecelia closed her eyes and she hoped it will be over soon as she went under water. Cecelia felt panicked inside but her mind remained calm. She wished she could tell Nuada where she was but It seems too late. If only she tried harder to call out to him.
Cecelia almost drowned but heard the chains snap the chains started to loosen and broke apart. Cecelia fought for her life one more time and felt some one grab the back of her collar.
it was wink she could hear him grunt at Nuada In Troll language.
"I got her Sire Wink said she's alive still."
Wink pulled her above water and Cecelia inhaled deeply, Her lungs caught the thin fresh air of Bethmoora and no longer felt her body ace.
Wink dragged her away from the huge rock keeping her head above the water and placed Her in Nuada's arms.
Nuada placed her on the ground and held her broken body close to him pressing her head against his chestplates.
he looked at her face it was badly bruised her whole cheek was thick and blue
"Im so sorry Celia! I've sworn to Protect you from all harm" NUada said and cradled her head.' I should have Protected you better'.
'Nuada..' Cecelia coughed 'I..I..The humans they..'
"Save your strength. you are going to be fine.. I got you my love". Nuada said.
Cecelia wished it was true. But she feels her own life energy fading and has not very long to live.
"No nuada im not going to make it! not this time.." Cecelia spoke quietly.
"Im Sorry for causing you so much Heart Ace."
Nuada felt a lump in his throat he refused to belive her words.
"don't ever say that don't you dare!"
"I don't want to go but there's nothing I can do about it". Cecelia said.
She felt miserable for risking not only her life but also endangered Nuada's son that grew inside her. Poor Nuala was also in danger because of her.
Their Son is dead and she doesn't deserve Nuada's forgiveness for that.
"Celia stay with me! Nuada pleaded i can't live without you! we..we are going to have a son" Nuada said and touched her stomach
"He's dead "Cecelia sighed sadly With tears visible in the corner of her eyes.
"Im sorry that I let the humans hurt him I always wanted to grand you a baby boy please forgive me".
Nuada's eyes teared up. "We will have more children Celia please don't go"!
Cecelia moved her head to the side,
"If you find a new Queen one day..Í understand and I'll be haapy for you but please don't forget me" Cecelia said and felt her strength going weaker.
She doesn't want Nuada to stop himself from being happy again,and encouraged him to move on when his Heart is healed.
"I don't want anyone else"! Nuada said firm.
"When I die I want to be reunited with one wife and that is you!..You are the only rightful owner of my Heart.
"Don't you dare to tell me to look for someone else! Don't you dare".! Nuada squeezed his eyes shut and tears escaped like waterfalls.
Cecelia felt honored with Nuada faithfulness to her and knew that his heart will always be hers even after death.
Cecelia gazed warmly into nuada's teary eyes and held her hand up.
"Don't cry nuada be strong"!
Nuada grabbed on to it and held it tight more tears coursed over his face splashing upon her hand
"Marrying you was the greatest moment of my life".
"I've cherished our wonderful time together every minute.. every second of it. i...just.. wished it lasted much longer".
"I Love you Nuada" Cecelia said. happy tears started to flow from her eyes.
"I'll wait for you and all of my friends In the large green grass field of Tir Na Nog" she whispered
Cecelia turned her head slightly" and I'll wait for you too mr wink".
wink shuddered and took a few steps closer he wanted to say something but he couldn't
it was too much for him to handle
Cecelia squeezed his hand with all her strength she has left.
"Goodbye my prince"
her hand slipped out of nuada's grasp Cecelia gave one last sigh and closed her eyes.
her breathing has stopped.
Nuada's eyes grew big with shock he grabbed her shoulders and tried to wake her.
"Celia! open your eyes! you cannot die! don't leave me"! Nuada cried out.
But no matter how much nuada pleaded and begged she didn't woke up.
Cecelia was gone.
he'll never see her beautiful face smiling at him and never receive her everlasting love Thanks to the Evil nature of mankind.
Nuada breathed shakily his shoulders shook violently he was stricken with deep grief
Nuada pressed her head against his shoulder and cried his eyes out.
he stopped cradling her when he noticed that Celia started to turn to stone.
it started with her feet and then it went further up nuada looked at her lifeless frame
and felt even more anguished tears fell on her closed eye lids.
nuada became overwhelmed with many emotions pain furry hatred
and nuada knew that revenge is to only way to ease the unbearable pain in his heart
Damn you all! Nuada hissed he squeezed his eyes shut he was angry at himself for letting
this happen to her! it should have been me not you!
nuada heard a grumbling sob he looked at wink his face is stained with tears hinting that he has been crying too.
Nuada narrowed his eyes and pulled himself back together.
He stood up and he looked at Cecelia sadly he felt more tears coming but wiped them away and looked at his comrad.
"sire we can't let them get away with this! we must avenge her".
"They won't i get away with this promise you that! we will kill the ones who are responsible"
but i need you help to find them".
"yes sire". Wink bowed.
Nuada was silent the whole journey. His Hatred for man kind grew with every step he takes. Nuada didn't look back at Cecelia's stone frame.
He couldn't bear to see the sight again. Every human who is responsible for this will feel the ice cold elvish metal pierced through their black hearts
Bres already moved further through the forest of Bethmoora but a small group wanted to stay behind because they were tired and will catch up with him later.
Bres was very tired too but the only thing that kept him going was his greed
They were heading to the old village they took refuge in to gather the humans and let them live in Elf land again and to claim his share of Elf land before Shreng returns.
He took The Queen of Bethmoora's wedding bracelet but didn't wash the blood off for Evidence that the Queen is murdered by his own hands. He also saved the whip he has beaten her with so that idiot Shreng got nothing on him.
Bres gave his horse a full stamina potion to make it go quick with almost the speed of a Unicorn.
The humans who remained in the forest builded their huts for the night.
Nuada and Wink stood on a small hill.
"We are here sire let's move"
"By the look of their disgusting smell they are asleep". Wink sneered his nose up.
Nuada didn't say a word al he wanted to give the ones who are responsible for his loss an agonizing death.
Nuada went inside a Hut in stealth With his sword drawn.
Two humans were sleeping With their weapons close to their beds.
Nuada approached one and grabbed the human by his hair he lifted his head up but
before he could make a sound Nuada slitted his throat open.
The human held it making choking sounds and stumbled out of his bed the blood squirted out like wine soaking the whole sheet.
the other one woke up with a startle.
"Who's there"? The human spoke.
He tried to look for a candle that stood on a small couch. He felt around and litted it back on.
The terrified Soldier almost shocked on his breath when he saw someone holding the head of his dead companion. He could hear the blood dripping on the ground.
"Who are you"? the human said.
Nuada came into the light of the candle the human panicked when he got a good look at nuada's face.
"What do you want"?! the human cried out loud.
Nuada brought his arm over his shoulder and cuts him brutally.
The others heard him scream in pain and became alarmed right away they grabbed their swords and axes leaving their huts. awhen they looked around they heard a high roar from Wink.
Nuada came out of the Hut. Nuada's eyes seem dead they had no emotion besides hunger for revenge.
the humans noticed the blood on nuada's sword. It was cloaked with blood and could barely see the silver of the Elvish sword.
'YOU ROTTEN ELF' one man pointed to Nuada with his spiked bat.
"WHY WON"T YOU GO BACK WERE YOU CAME FROM"!
Why won't you and your race go to hell? This Earth is better off without your existance!Nuada responded back.
the humans became annoyed with the princes arrogance.
"Men let's show him he's not welcome here"! The human chief said. And surrounded the Prince We mean business you pale Asswhipe!
Wink was about to step in but nuada stopped him.
"Stay back wink i can take them myself". Nuada ordered and pulled another sword from his back and waited until the humans make a move
one human ran to him and tried to hit him with a flaming torch Nuada dodged it he ducked and swung his sword and aimed for his legs making the human fall to his knees with a swift second the human received a piece of metal drilled in his face.
all the soldiers ran towards Nuada wink came from behind and slammed many soldiers back a few landed in the camp fire.
. "I said stay back Wink! This is my battle". Nuada hissed.
One human jumped on wink and tried to stab him wink grabbed his leg and slammed him on the ground and crushed its head with his metal paw he checked if the human was still alive and let go of his leg.
Nuada killed the soldiers who tried to gain up on him
he placed the twin swords back in the holders
Aggravated Nuada grabbed winks shoulder making the Troll look up to his master.
"Wink! didn't i say stay back"?
"I couldn't let you fight all of them by yourself I don't want to lose you too sire" Wink grumbled.
Nuada looked at wink but said nothing.
Only one soldier remained alive he hid behind a hut witnessing the onslaught of a 2 man army.
The human looked at nuada his back was turned and had to make his escape.
He knew that nuada will spot him soon if he doesn't make a run for it. He glanced over the forest and looked at nuada once more he was talking to the large ogre like Troll.
"We didn't get everyone I can feel it" Nuada spoke in elvish.
Thee human had no idea what Nuada said but it didn't sound nice.
The human backed away but stepped on a small twig it snapped in two the sound wasn't loud but it was loud enough for Nuada to hear it.
His sharp ears moved and turned around slowly.
The human urinated in his trousers when he saw that nuada was looking his direction.
Nuada's glare was razor-sharp his eyes looked like it was glowing with rage.
The human ran away when nuada walked towards him with his sword drawn.
The human ran for his life if he slowed down then his fate would be sealed with death and ran further in to the woods.
He looked behind him and panicked when he saw nuada coming after him fast.
The soldier tripped on a large branch and fell on the ground when the spine chilled howl of Wink startled him.
He backed away when Nuada walked towards him.
Nuada breathed in and out and was ready to end the human on the spot.
"No have mercy! Please we never ment to hurt her" the human pleaded and held his hands in front of him in defense.
"I swear we were just getting orders"! From lord Bres.
"Please..let me go and I'll tell you where to find Shreng the one who aided Bres Army to kill you"! The human started to cry.
Nuada didn't want listen to his pathetic whimpering.
"SILENCE"! Nuada yelled.
"Where was your Mercy when you brutalized my Queen"? "Did you ever felt pity on her soul when you left her to die"? Nuada Shouted holding his sword against the humans throat.
"Im sorry about Cecelia I..I really am" The human sobbed.".Forgive us".
Nuada felt his anger sky rocking when the human mentioned Cecelia his body trembled slightly he felt electric shocks going through him.
"I hope you are Sorry about one thing human"! Nuada said in an eerie calm Way.
"Sorry That you and your filthy race are born"!
Nuada drilled his sword trough the human body and pulled it out.
The human held his stomach in pain and tried to stand up but was unable to get up.
"You should have kept your paws off my wife" nuada growled "you had no right"!
Nuada swung his sword against his head and the human was be headed.
Nuada breathed he was even more furrious then before.
wink walked to his master. But kept his distance. Nuada seems different. And Wink wasn't sure if he was still in control of his actions.
But spoke up quietly they are dead now it's over Wink said trying to calm Nuada down.
not until all the humans are dead I'll make them pay all of them! Nuada snapped not looking at his friend.
Nuada was so consumed with raw furry that he forgot all about Lugh and his court he left behind to search for Cecelia.
Nuada snapped out of his blind rage realizing that his comrades are alone and probably in grave danger.
"Wink we must return to the battle field! Now! We can't let them die"!
And both returned to the battle tower as fast as he could.
Lugh and the other Elves stayed strong without the guidance of their commander.
Nuada knew Lugh was keen enough to lead Nuada's soldiers to victory. And it looks like the Elves are on the winning hand. Many got killed off but the remaining humans haven't laid a finger on the Bethmoora soldiers.
The humans ran out of potions and stamina increased. But even after all the potions they used the Elves haven't reached exhaustion yet.
Hopefully Mankind has learned their lesson that the Fay will always be superior Centa said. Pointing his sword at the fleeing humans.
"Come on let's kill those cowards before they get away. For Bethmoora and everyone else they ruthlessly killed off". Lugh shouted.
The elves aimed their fire arrows at the fleeing humans the remaining dragons slowly healed their wounds and destroyed the last ships.
The humans got killed off and no one had the chance to escape. Human bodies has piled up and The Bethmoora soldiers poked the human carcases to male sure every single of them is dead.
"We did It"! Lugh panted. The humans have been Defeated And fell on his knees in gratitude towards the Gods.
Bethmoora Is still ours Centa breathed. The other Elves looked at each other and realised it's true. Not even a single ship is near the shore. The endless waves of human soldiers has stopped coming in.
It was quiet only the wind could be heard. Then a loud roar of joy was heard the Elves celebrated their victory And couldn't believe It's finally over and couldn't wait until they are reunited with their family.
Winks clan watched the others Celebrate but remained quiet they grunted and yawned in exhaustion but their scent made clear that they are thrilled with their Victory.
"Oh No"! Lugh shouted startling the hugging soldiers.
"Lugh"? Centa touched a shivering shoulder of his friend.
"I've forgotten about her"! Lugh said.
"Men" ! Lugh shot an anxious look at the others.
"Our queen is in danger"! We need to catch up with Nuada before it's too late"!
They got our Queen? Macha shouted In disbelief Feeling devastated just like the others
"We Don't have time For this! Nuada could be in danger too! "We have to come to their aid now! Lugh yelled.
The soldiers ran as quick as they can to the hide out where Nuada has been last seen They Elves were frustrated because they don't know where exactly Nuada went .
They hope they can find Nuala to tell them Where Nuada is or their effort will be in vain.
"Nuada wherever you are don't die friend". Lugh mused "I already lost too many comrades" Lugh closed his eyes shut for a moment and focused on his to Bring Nuada and hopefully Cecelia back alive.
The Bethmoora clan hurried to the mountain to climb up. Few soldiers flied on the dragons to be there quick hopefully it will by them mire time. One dragon stayed with the others to protect the soldiers from further attacks among with Winks family.
Lugh heard laughter coming above the mountains his ears perked up looking around.
"Wait comrades I hear something". The other Elves froze in place and listened carefully they heard it too. It became louder Everyone looked up in shock they couldn't believe what they were seeing.
A huge human army of 60 thousand soldiers hovered above them.
Mocking them The Humans kicked the dragons and their riders they have slain from the mountain.
The Elves watched in horror at the large army that looked much better prepared than the army they fought. The humans let out their battle cry and slides off the mountain ready to kill the remaining Elf soldiers.
They came from all sides cornering their sword enemies.
their commander came in sight aswell.
A Tall middle aged buff man stood there smirking sinister at the Elves. Lugh tensed up when he recognized the commanders face.
"Shreng"! Lugh said and stepped back Terrified.
Lugh could barely breathe all the memories he had with Shreng flashed before his eyes. The beating the yelling and brutalize experience that scarred him deeply For years.
"Oh no" Lugh Breathed
"We are Doomed"!
