Klaus walked into The Grill with Marisol following behind him. He had a feeling this was where he'd find who he was looking for. Sure enough, Damon was by himself, shooting darts. Marisol smiled widely at the sight of him and skipped past Klaus to greet him.

"Hi, Damon!"

Damon looked over as the sound of his name and found Marisol waving excitedly at him. He was getting ready to wave back at her when Klaus's hand shot out and pulled her behind him. She frowned at him in confusion. Damon, on the other hand, stood up straighter at the sight of Klaus and faced him.

"You're gonna do this in The Grill? In front of everyone? It's a little beneath you, don't you think?"

Klaus shook his head. "I don't know what you're talking about. I just came down to my local pub to grab a drink with a mate. Get a round in, would you, Tony?"

Tony popped up behind Klaus, smirked, and walked off towards the bar.

"I'm surprised you stuck around town long enough for happy hour."

Klaus shrugged. "My sister seems to be missing. Need to sort that out."

"Cute, blonde bombshell, psycho. Shouldn't be too hard to find."

Marisol tried to walk around Klaus to go over to Damon, but once again he grabbed her arm and kept her behind him. Her frown deepened.

"Why can't I say hi?" She asked cluelessly. "I like Damon. He's nice to me."

"Not now, love." He turned back to Damon. "Truth is, I've grown to rather like your little town. Think I might fancy a home here. Oh, I imagine you're wondering how does this affect you. The answer is, not in the slightest. As long as I get what I want and everyone behaves themselves, you can go on living your little lives however you choose. You have my word."

Behind him, Marisol had stared at the back of Klaus's head, thoroughly annoyed, and had closed her eyes to bring Elowen forward. Elowen stretched and then walked over to Damon. Klaus reached over to seize her wrist, but she yanked it from his grip before he could touch her.

"She's not here anymore. She's mad at you."

"Well, bring her back!" Klaus huffed in annoyance.

"Hmm, no. I'd like to spend whatever time I have left with my boyfriend and my family, thanks."

Damon shot Elowen a quick look before redirecting his attention to Klaus. She hadn't referred to Damon as her boyfriend ever since she'd gotten home, and it took him by surprise. He'd ask her about it when they were alone. She came over to stand by Damon, who wrapped an arm around her waist protectively. She leaned her head back on Damon's shoulder to look at him.

"He's looking for Stefan."

Damon snorted. "Stefan skipped town the second he saved your ass."

"Well, you see, that is a shame." Klaus walked over and took the darts out of Damon's other hand. He threw one and hit the bullseye. "Your brother stole from me. I need him found so I can take back what's mine."

"That sounds like a Klaus and Stefan problem."

"Ha. Well, this is me broadening the scope, mate."

Klaus smirked, turned and then left them.

Elena, Esmeralda and Alaric were all preparing dinner in the kitchen. Elena had taken some plates out of the cupboard and was setting the table. They'd found out Jeremy had gotten fired from The Grill without telling anyone, paired with him flunking his history paper because of obvious plagiarism, and needless to say, they were worried.

"So, are you ready?" Alaric asked as he continued cutting up things for dinner.

"Vampires, hybrids and Originals. No problem," Elena replied. "My rebellious brother. I'm worried."

"Proof that you're still human."

The front door opened and closed and Jeremy appeared in the kitchen with them. He went straight to the fridge.

"Just in time!" Esmeralda turned away from the stove with a smile. "We're cooking."

"Sorry, just passing through," Jeremy replied.

"Well, I thought we could all stay in, have a meal together like a typical, atypical family."

"Shouldn't everyone else be there, then? Josiah, Eliana, Sydney, and everyone else in this weird, surrogate arrangement?"

Elena crossed her arms. "I figured we should keep it small, considering you got fired and didn't tell anyone."

Jeremy groaned. "Look, can we do this later? I made plans with Tyler. He's right outside."

Elena, Esmeralda and Alaric all looked at each other.

"Wait!" Alaric called when Jeremy turned to leave. "When did you start hanging out with Tyler Lockwood?"

Jeremy shrugged. "I don't know. Does it matter?"

"Yeah, Jeremy! It matters," Elena said. "He was sired by Klaus. He's dangerous."

"He can still hear you." Jeremy gestured towards the front door. "He's right outside. Besides, you of all people are gonna lecture me on who I can and can't hang out with?"

"Watch your attitude," Esmeralda told him warningly. "That is your sister, Jeremy."

Jeremy scoffed. "You're not my mom, Esmeralda. This is lame. Tyler's waiting."

Jeremy tried to leave again, but Elena quickly blocked his way.

"Oh, no, no! You're not going anywhere, especially not with Tyler."

Jeremy looked at Alaric and Esmeralda for help, but Esmeralda put her hands up and shook her head.

"I'm not your mom, remember? It doesn't matter what I say."

He immediately regretted saying that, as he didn't realize she'd use it again him and instead turned to Alaric. He also shook his head.

"I'm with her on this, Jer. Sorry."

"Alright, fine. You want me to stay in? Let's all stay in then." Jeremy turned to the door and raised his voice. "Yo, Tyler! Come on in!"

"Jeremy!" Elena exclaimed in a whisper.

The front door opened and Tyler came walking in. Elena, Esmeralda and Alaric all shared another look.

Uh-oh.

xxxx

"What was that earlier?" Damon asked as him and Elowen walked into the library.

"What was what?"

"When you said you want to spend whatever time you have left with me. Also the part where you called me your boyfriend after months of nothing."

Elowen sighed. She went over to sit on the couch while Damon walked over to pour himself a drink.

"I can feel myself slipping farther and farther away. I'm having trouble keeping myself grounded when I'm awake and when I'm asleep, I can't fight for control anymore. Marisol's getting stronger and I'm getting weaker. I don't think I have much time left, Damon."

Damon stopped mid pour. "What? No, we'll find something." He turned around to face Elowen. "We'll figure this out. We always do."

"Damon… not this time. I think… I think it's time you start saying goodbye. And I just... miss you. Before, I didn't want to get attached because I was afraid Klaus would just whisk me away again, but now? Now, I just want my boyfriend back, because I might not be here much longer."

"I am not saying goodbye, damn it! I just lost my brother. I'm not losing you, too."

Elowen sighed and stood up from her spot on the couch. She walked over to Damon, took the glass out of his hands, set it down, carefully grabbed onto his face and leaned in to kiss him. The second their lips touched, she immediately remembered how much she loved him in that moment.

"I'm sorry," she whispered when she pulled back. "Marisol really likes you. Maybe you can find some kind of solace in her."

"But she's not you. Besides, how would that make me look? It would be like if I fell for Elena because she looked like Katherine."

Elowen smiled a little. "Since when do you care what people think of you?"

"Pfft. I don't."

"Uh-huh. Is that so?"

Damon placed his hands on Elowen's waist and she wrapped her arms around his neck. They were both smiling at each other. Damon leaned down to kiss her and she kissed him back, both of them glad that they had each other again.

"So, where did you go last night?" Damon asked as he pulled away. "You just took off."

"No, Marisol took off. She took control last night because she was so scared out of her mind."

"Okay then, where did she go? She got pretty far."

"Because I might've taught her how to drive."

"Figures. So?"

Elowen sighed. "She went to see Klaus."

"What? Why? What happened when she was there?"

Elowen removed her arms from Damon's neck and picked up his drink. "You're gonna wanna drink this first before I tell you. I'm not even sure I should. You're not gonna like it."

Damon took the drink from her and downed it. "Done. Spill."

"You should sit down first."

"Okay, Wen, seriously, it can't be that bad. Just tell me."

Elowen gave him a pointed look and he huffed, but plopped himself down anyway. He looked at her expectantly.

"Well?"

Elowen took a deep breath. "She slept with Klaus."

Damon immediately flew to his feet. "She what?!"

Elowen grimaced. "I told you that you wouldn't like it."

"And you just- you just let it happen?"

"I told you, I can't fight her anymore!"

"Then try harder! Klaus slept with you!"

"Technically, he slept with Marisol."

"In your body, Wen! Yours!"

"In a way, it's her body, too."

"Why are you so okay with this?"

"I'm not, but what else can I do, huh? I'm dying, Damon. Before the year is up, I'll be gone. Maybe sooner. I've already accepted it. It's time you do, too."

Damon walked over to Elowen and placed his hands on her face. "What happened to you? You're just… giving up. It's what you did with Stefan, too. Why?"

Elowen sighed and closed her eyes. She didn't speak until she opened them. "After spending an entire summer on team Klaus, my priorities have changed. I'm not fighting because I know that it'll be in vain. Back when my dad was alive, before we moved to Mystic Falls, I used to think that nothing was worth fighting for because he would come in and take it away from me if I tried. Then, we escaped and I met people that were worth fighting for. You, Stefan, Caroline. I learned exactly how important family was and what it was like for people to have your back. I got to know what it was like to not live in constant fear. And then Klaus kidnapped me. He taught me that sometimes, in order to survive, you have to look out for nobody but yourself. I used to think Katherine was one of the most selfish people on the planet, but I get it now. I 'gave up' on Stefan because it would've meant wasting my time on someone who didn't want to be saved, when I could've used that time and energy looking out for myself. I still love him. And you. And my family, but I'm just too scared that if I let myself allow you all back in, you'll just get ripped away from me again. It's one of the reasons I didn't want to be found. It's easier to care about yourself and nobody else."

"Wen… you're the most family driven person I know. You refused to let Elijah take you alone. You convinced him to take your whole family and then some when you were going to run away with him. You're a fighter. A survivor. But you're a fighter and a survivor who would never leave anybody behind. It's why you wanted Klaus dead so bad, isn't it? Because he was a threat to your family?"

"I mean… it was also partially driven by revenge. He took me from my home and everything that I cared about away from me."

"My point is, you don't have to look out for yourself anymore, because you have me. You have Esmeralda, and Josiah, and Alaric, Eliana, Sydney, Caroline, hell, even Toby, all looking out for you, so you don't have to. You're back. You're home. It's okay for you to start caring about other people again. It's okay to want to live. It's okay to want to get rid of Marisol. I get it. If you just lie down and let her take over your body, then you're free. Free from Klaus and everything that comes with him. It won't be your problem anymore, but you don't give up, Wen. That's not who you are."

"She deserves to have a life, Damon. A real life."

"Yeah, but at what cost? Yours? That's not fair. You're just making up excuses and you know it. Come on, Wen. I know that you just adapted to your surroundings, but you can adapt again. Do you really want to leave your family alone? Because I don't think they can handle losing you a second time."

Elowen stared into Damon's eyes and slowly removed his hands from her face. She was carefully thinking over her next words when someone spoke up.

"Sorry, am I interrupting something?"

Elowen and Damon turned to the doorway. Standing against the doorsill was none other than Klaus. He was smirking at them.

"I think it's about time we had a drink, don't you?"

Elowen and Damon shared a look before Damon slowly stepped in front of her.

"I'd say we're overdue."

"Well, you've been so busy with all your plotting and scheming."

"You know me. Never miss a chance to plan an epic failure."

"Don't be so hard on yourself. Who could have guessed your own brother would betray you?"

"Well, I did have a front row seat when your sister lied to you."

"Yeah, well, she's fickle, that one. And you say you have no idea of her whereabouts?"

"That's the thing with younger siblings. You just never know what they're gonna do. Right, Wen?"

"Oh, yeah, for sure." Elowen tilted her head and smiled. "Drink?"

Elowen let Damon walk over and pour himself and Klaus a glass of bourbon and retreated to the couch.

"What, none for you?" Klaus asked as Damon handed him his glass.

"I don't drink," she replied shortly. "Don't ask."

"Hmm. That's a shame." He clinked his glass against Damon's. "Cheers, mate!"

"Down the hatch."

They both took a sip of their drink. Elowen watched them silently.

"You know, we've actually got a lot in common, you and I," Klaus said.

"Really? Well, yeah. Maybe we can bond over our mutual loathing of my brother. Why are you so mad at him? He stole something?"

"His family," Elowen replied before Klaus could. "Marisol was so excited to see Kol, too." She jutted her bottom lip out in a faux pout. "At least he made her feel wanted."

Klaus clenched his jaw, but didn't say anything. Damon took another drink.

"Imagine how your brother will feel knowing you slept with her. I heard he had a thing for her."

"So, you heard about that. Hope you don't mind that I borrowed her."

"Hey, man, you've got needs. Am I stoked it was my girlfriend you decided to pick? No, but it technically wasn't even her, right? Who am I to judge."

Klaus nodded. "Right, except we both know it bothers you. You're just smart enough to not do anything about it. So, about my family. I had them daggered, boxed up, awaiting the day when I saw fit to wake them, and your brother went in and pinched the bloody lot."

"Of course he did. Such a buzzkill, my baby bro. Well, I'd love to find him, just the trouble is, I sure as hell don't work for you."

"You know, your drink stinks of vervain, so I can't compel you. There'll be no point in killing you because you're actually the one with the most help of getting me what I need, and, well, Marisol, of course. She'll do just about anything to see my brother, Kol."

"Oh, totally." Elowen propped her elbow up on the arm of the couch and rested her head against the palm of her hand. "She'll do anything to see Kol and she'll do anything for you as long as you ask nicely. She's so whipped, it's kind of sad, because she doesn't even know it. She doesn't even know what it means. It'll be so easy for you to take advantage of her when the time comes, except you better be ready when she finally figures out that it's because she's in love with you. Oh, and it'll be such an interesting story to see unfold when she realizes she's in love with Kol, too. I can't wait for that."

Klaus swallowed hard, but ignored her. "It would seem a demonstration is in order. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough when I told you to find Stefan. Well, it seems you people respond best to displays of violence. Why don't you take this as an example of my reach."

Klaus took out his phone and called someone. Elowen sat up in her seat and carefully pulled her own phone out to text her mom.

Watch Jeremy.

"There he is!" Klaus said once the line went through. "So, that thing I told you to do, why don't you go ahead and get on with it?"

xxxx

Tyler had just left the house and Esmeralda, Alaric and Elena were all talking in the kitchen when Esmeralda's phone went off. Her eyebrows furrowed at the message, but her eyes shot up to look for Jeremy nonetheless. Her blood ran cold when she saw that Jeremy was gone.

"Find Jeremy," she said quickly. "Now. Elowen just texted me a warning."

Alaric and Elena immediately jumped into action.

"I'll check his room." Elena made a run for the stairs as Esmeralda made her way towards the front door. Alaric followed her.

"His ring was sitting on the table," he told her as she opened the door. "I don't like this."

Both Esmeralda and Alaric went outside and found Jeremy standing in the middle of the street. Esmeralda was running towards him in a heartbeat.

"Jeremy! Jeremy, get out of the road!"

Alaric was hot on her tail. A car whipped around the corner and sped towards Jeremy, prompting Esmeralda and Alaric to run harder.

"Jeremy!" Esmeralda screamed. "Jeremy, move!"

Alaric picked up speed and ran past Esmeralda. He reached Jeremy in the nick of time and pushed him out of the way, but was hit by the car instead. Elena had came outside just as this happened and immediately ran over to them. Jeremy got up and saw Esmeralda on the ground next to Alaric, turning him over onto his back. The car pulled up next to them and the window rolled down. One of Klaus's hybrids was in the driver's seat.

"There I go again," he said. "Bumping into people."

He drove off as Elena reached everyone else.

"He's gonna be okay. He has his ring." Esmeralda turned to Jeremy. "Are you alright?"

Jeremy stood over Esmeralda and Alaric. He shook his head. "I don't understand."

"Elowen texted me telling me to watch you and the next thing I know, you're about to be roadkill. I need you to think hard. Who was that one the phone earlier?"

Jeremy thought about it and his face dropped when he remembered. "It was Klaus!"

"You were compelled, Jeremy. We've gotta get him inside. Help me!"

Elena and Jeremy both crouched down and helped Esmeralda get Alaric to his feet. Together, they got him back inside the house.

xxxx

Elowen and Damon arrived at Elena's house. They found Elena, Jeremy and Esmeralda in the living room while Alaric was on the couch.

"How is he?" Elowen asked as she walked around the couch to Alaric.

"He's dead, but he had his ring," Esmeralda replied. "Klaus's hybrid hit him. Now we just wait."

Elowen looked over at Jeremy to see if he was okay, as he was the one she'd said to watch when she noticed his bracelet was gone. "Jeremy, why aren't you wearing vervain? Where is your bracelet?"

Jeremy looked down at his wrist. "I don't know."

"It was Tyler!" Elena spoke up. "It had to have been. That's why he was hanging out with you, to get you off the vervain."

"Klaus is trying to send us a message," Damon told Esmeralda, Elena and Jeremy. "He wants us to find Stefan, who stole his coffins full of his dead family members,"

"Coffins?" Esmeralda asked.

"Yep! So, all we have to do is find four coffins and voila! No one else on your family's Christmas list needs to die!"

Elowen furrowed her eyebrows as everyone else continued to talk. She knew who the first three were. Elijah, Kol and Finn, but who was the fourth? She was broken out of her thoughts when Jeremy started yelling.

"Let's get the hell out of here! Pack our bags and go!"

"Hey, Jeremy, calm down," Elena tried to say, but Jeremy ignored her.

"No, no! I'm not gonna calm down, Elena! This happens every time, no matter what we do! Get on my case about school and work." Jeremy shook his head. "Who cares? None of us are gonna make it out of this town alive."

Jeremy stormed off and headed for the stairs. Elowen stared at the ground. Jeremy was right. Elena and Damon started talking about whether or not to hand over Rebekah, but Elowen wasn't listening. Esmeralda, feeling her emotions, furrowed her eyebrows and carefully approached her. They hadn't talked since right after Esmeralda's fight with Alaric, which wasn't even a proper conversation, and their relationship was still rocky after everything that happened, but Esmeralda wasn't just going to let Elowen go through anything alone. She gently placed her hand on Elowen's shoulder.

"Honey, what's wrong?"

"Jeremy's right," Elowen quietly told her. "We moved to Mystic Falls to get away from the craziness of Atlanta, when we thought Luis was our biggest problem, but it feels like ever since we've been here, we keep running into bigger and bigger problems that are much more life threatening. Luis looks like nothing compared to all of this. If we stay here, we're signing our death sentence."

"What do you suppose we do? Just pack up and leave? Because Klaus will follow us wherever we go."

"It doesn't matter. I won't be here to see it."

"What do you mean?"

"I don't have much time left, mom. Marisol's taking over faster than I thought." Elowen sighed and faced Esmeralda. "It's making me realize that keeping you at an arm's length because of the things I said is silly. I'm sorry for it, but I had to do what I had to do to keep you from following me across the country. And it worked. You believed it. But now all I need is my mom, because in a few months, I'll be gone, and I want to cherish every moment with you that I can."

Esmeralda was having a hard time processing what her daughter was saying. "What… no, no, we'll figure something out."

Elowen smiled ruefully. "Funny. Damon said the same thing." She took a deep breath to stop herself from crying. "It's time to start saying goodbye, mom."

"Good news," Elena said loudly to get everyone's attention. Esmeralda and Elowen jumped a bit, as they'd forgotten where they were, and Damon rolled his eyes at Elena for interrupting them. "I just got off the phone with Bonnie. She knows where Stefan is."

xxxx

Damon, Elowen and Elena were all walking towards the witch house. Damon and Elowen had told Elena to stay at the house with Esmeralda and Alaric, but she stubbornly said no and came with anyway.

"I thought Bonnie said the dead witches left this place," Elena said as they approached the house.

"No, the witches blocked her out. They're still here because they're still allowing me to access them. I'm not the one who broke the laws of nature and brought someone back to life."

"Maybe, but at least she didn't use those powers to kill people."

"Excuse me?"

"Okay!" Damon quickly intervened. "You guys can cat fight later. Let's just find Stefan."

They reached the house and Elena and Damon entered. When Elowen tried to go through the door, an invisible force stopped her. Damon and Elena turned around when they realized she was stuck. Whispers started to loudly murmur throughout the house and continued to pick up volume.

"What's with you?" Damon asked as he watched Elowen push against the force.

"They're mad at me with how I've been using their powers. If you're so angry, why are you still letting me use them? Huh?"

The whispering suddenly ceased and Elowen was able to stick her hand through the door. She walked in.

"That's what I thought."

Damon walked further into the house and walked through a patch of sunlight. His skin immediately started to burn and he groaned in pain. "Aah, ow!" He quickly sped over a corner that no sun was hitting. "Really?! Still?!"

Elowen couldn't help but snort. "It must really suck to be you."

"Shut up, Wen."

Elena furrowed her eyebrows. "What? What is it?"

"Witchy spirits aren't a big fan," Damon explained. "And they use their juju to screw with my daylight ring!"

Elena shrugged. "Then wait outside."

"Oh, come on!"

"I'm not leaving until I know if he's here and you obviously can't go on. Wait outside."

Elena walked off towards the basement and Elowen went over to Damon to pat his shoulder.

"Sorry, dude. Looks like you've got to sit this one out."

Damon grumbled, but sped out of the house. Elowen continued on to follow Elena. They walked down the steps to the basement and looked around the empty room.

"Go away," a voice said from the shadows. Elowen and Elena turned around to find Stefan standing there. "You two shouldn't be here."

"Stefan, I need your help," Elena said. "Bonnie said that you would be here."

"Well, Bonnie sucks at keeping secrets."

"Listen, you need to give Klaus his family back."

"Oh, really? Is that what I need to do?"

"Klaus compelled Jeremy to stand in front of a speeding car. Don't you get it? Stefan, he's not going to stop until he gets what he wants."

"Elena, stop talking. I'm not giving Klaus anything."

"Are you listening to me? He's gonna kill Jeremy!"

"Not really my problem."

Elena raised her hand and slapped Stefan across the face. He didn't seem bothered at all and Elowen blinked in mild surprise.

"You can go to hell!"

Elena turned and ran back up the stairs. Stefan turned to Elowen.

"And you? Are you here to tell me the same thing?"

Elowen shook her head. "No. I'm here to say goodbye."

Stefan furrowed his eyebrows. "Goodbye? Not that I care, but where are you going?"

"My spirit is dying, remember? My candle is almost out, Stefan, and I wanted to say what I need to say before it's too late, because you probably won't turn your humanity back on before I'm gone." Elowen took a deep breath. "I love you. I always have, and I know that you think that makes me pathetic and weak, but I'm human. What else can I do? I gave up on you when I shouldn't have, but there's nothing I can really do about it anymore. When and if you decide to turn it back on, I just want you to know that you changed my life for the better. When we first met, I was a cowardly little girl playing pretend and hiding behind a tough facade so I wouldn't break because I was still recovering from what Luis did to me. You helped teach me that your past doesn't define you and you helped me find myself again. You taught me what it was like to love and be loved. I never knew what being truly happy felt like until you showed up. Thank you."

Elowen gave a small, sad smile and turned around to leave. Stefan's hand shot out to grab her wrist and spun her back around. One hand tightly gripped her hip and the other cupped her face as he brought her in for a kiss. He kissed her hard and passionate, like his entire life depended on it, and it only took Elowen a second to recover from the abrupt show of affection in order to kiss him back. Her own hands held onto his biceps and she kissed him back with the same amount of torrid. When they pulled back, Elowen leaned her forehead on his.

"Goodbye, Stefan," she whispered, then slowly backed away and left.

Author's Note: I just kind of... wanted to address the two guest reviewers who said they thought Marisol and this whole plot line was annoying, and how they didn't like it. I just first wanted to say that I was pretty proud of this plot line, and I had previously been super excited to finally post it, so seeing those reviews kind of hurt a little, but I understand that everyone is allowed their own opinions. Second, Marisol is sort of supposed to be annoying. That's her whole character. She's just this girl who was sheltered her whole life and killed when she was so young, suddenly brought back to life centuries later in a time she's not familiar with. Naturally, she's going to have questions, and she's not going to understand, and she needs help navigating her new surroundings. She doesn't know how to be independent because Elijah took care of her and raised her, and was always there for her. I'm sorry if it seems like this plot line is pointless, or if it makes you want to discontinue reading this series. I'll be sorry to see you go, but I'll understand.

Another thing I wanted to talk about was Elowen's character development and how sometimes it seems like she's needy, or freaks out at the prospect of losing somebody. I did my best to make her drastically different from Elena, and one of those things was having Elowen heal from her past trauma with her dad. Growing up, her only friend was Toby, and she always felt like she would never be good enough for anyone because of Luis. Now in Mystic Falls, she has all of these friends and a sudden new, healthy father figure in Alaric, and she doesn't quite know how to handle this just yet. She comes across as needy because she never received the proper love and care she deserved as a child, and she clings to people because she's afraid that if she doesn't, they'll all suddenly decide that she's not good enough and abandon her. I tried to portray this as well as I could, but maybe I missed the mark a little. I will warn you guys that during most of season 4, she goes through some character changes that make her more unlikable, because I wanted to show that she wasn't perfect and wouldn't always be likable, but in season 5 she comes to the realization of the type of person she's become, and works to change that come season 6. My absolute fear with Elowen, because she's my main oc, was that I was going to accidentally make her a Mary Sue, which I didn't want to do, so that's why her character is going in the current direction it's going in. I hope that you guys will see her development through, and that you enjoy it.

That's all I wanted to say in regards to this, and I hope this bit wasn't too much for you. I just really wanted to talk about it before someone got the wrong idea or something. Until next time :)
