This is purely a chapter that sets up the scene for the next few. The whole
hand glowy thing that Lucian is going to do looks like what White lighters
do in Charmed, but this story has nothing to do with it. Though the two
will probably do something else that looks like it, but using their Jewels.
I like my characters to be all-powerful.

Lucian and Alliana sat on the ground in the servant chariot on their way to Victus. Lucian sat in the corner reading one of the few books he and Alli had from their time in Thestralnal Forest. It was a book of short stories writing from Hobbits to Elves, Men and Dwarves.
Then he noticed that his sister was asleep with her head on his knee and a child in her arms. Looking closely, he noticed that it was Kathrine, the daughter of the Gardener and one of the cleaning maids.
Lucian was reading the book out loud, but low, to his sister in Elvish. He smiled when he remembered Kathrine crawled over to them saying that she liked the sound of his voice when he was reading.
Lucian noticed that Kathrine was holding a stuffed puppy, but his back was holding together with its last threads. Putting a sight shield around his arm, and making an allusion that looked like his arm didn't move, he softly laid his hand on the dog and his hand glowed gold. When he pulled away, the dog looked good as new.
He heard his sisters voice on a mind link, that was nice of you
And she was gone.
Lucian smiled and rustled his wings. Then he settled down for the rest of his trip to Victus.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Alli stepped out of the chariot and stretched, fallowed closely by Lucian. Turning back to the chariot, she lifted Kathrine from the first stare where she was waiting for her. "Look, doggie isn't sick anymore!" she squealed happily.
"I see that, I wonder how that happened." She stole a glance a Lucian who didn't meet her gaze.
"Alli."
"Yes."
"Momma said that we were going to a big Ball where everyone dances. And I want you to dance with me and Doggie. Will you please?"
Alli smiled a smile that reached her blue eyes. "Of course I will, I'll save a dance just for you."
Kathrine smiled back.
Then she looked over at Lucian and Alli brought her closer. Lucian plucked her from his sister's arms and smiles. "Yes."
"Me and Doggie made this for you." She pulled a braded bracelet from her pocket. She handed it to his and he examined it. It was purple and blue dyed wool thread braided a few timed.
Lucian used craft to tie it around his wrist. "Thank you Kathrine," he gave her cheek a kiss, "I love it. I'll never take it off."
Kathrine smiled at him and gave him a kiss on the cheek, so did Doggie. He handed her back to Alli. Alli, Kathrine and Doggie exchanged kisses and she handed her back to her mother. "Thank you for watching her Lady."
"Is no problem. We'll do it any time."
Lillian went to join her husband and Alli turned to Lucian. "That little girl has you wrapped around her little finger."
He scowled, but that scowl turned into a grin. "Don't make a big deal out of it."
They laughed and headed to wear ever they were staying.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Fifteen minutes later, Seatan, Jeanell, Deamon, Lucivar, Memphis, Andulvar, Surreal, Meanial, and Khardeen stood outside their own chariot stretching.
"Well, that was fun."
Everyone heading off to wear they were staying on their visit.
Seatan stayed behind to take in the smells. Flowers, earth, and trees. This is what Victus is known for.
He sensed his children's dark power. And he also sensed... his eyed snapped open and he looked around.
{They can't be here. They're dead. It's only faint, but it is here. I should tell Deamon and Jeanell. No, wait, not until I'm sure.}
He headed for his family, looking around and alert to see if he saw his grandchildren.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Legolas Greenleaf, the Last Royal of Mirkwood, slept under a tree at the edge of Thestralnal Forest.
Ever since he got the news that Alliana and Lucian were killed, he spent a lot of time away from the cities and traveled with the Marchwarden's group. Protecting the borders and keeping order, this is what he did.
Elves don't need a lot of sleep, but when they slept, they dreamed.
Legolas dreamed about Alliana a lot, always about the time they spent together. Mostely about their first and last kiss.
But not tonight.
Alli playing find me catch me with her brother and father.
Alli, standing in a huge cavern, leading a bunch of girls into a battle with demons.
Alli, saving Elrond's sons from a band of Orcs with her brother.
Alli, jumping off a strange tower into a portal of light.
Alli, kissing him.
Alli, stabbing a man through with a sword into a statue.
Alli, being pulled away unconscious from the battle she and Lucian fought when they left the forest.
Alli, running over building while the ground sank behind her.
Alli, holding his hand and seeing the two matching golden bands on their fingers.
He woke up with a start.
Fighting to get air into his lungs, one thought stayed in his mind.
She's alive.
