The land outside of prontera was indeed a sight of pure natural beauty. As the wind blows over the grasslands. It was one of the peaceful part from the outskirts from the city of prontera. It seems that way but as the time ages.. it wasn't been as peaceful like before, Men prepare for battle the land prepares for the upcoming catastrophes, it wasn't easy for the young thief, and now It 's her 21st year of birth,

".. Just what? That's silly you're just lonely sis". He smiled and pinched her cheek.
"Vyse!.. Vale come inside its almost DarK!" Vyse's mother was calling from the old shack. "Go on.. I'll just catch up with you .. I'll just do some laundry by the stream" she smiled at the young novice as he went to his mother.

"This is a necklace of wisdom.. when I was young once a young adventurer "
"So where is this friend of yours?" valenarr asked. " She was my companion a like you she was and huntress we have a special thing .. un fortunately she wasn't the one I married.." he said softly.. "where is she uncle?" she asked.
" That is the reason I took down my bow from hunting and defending Payon that's why I fled from that place…… She died trying to save the town. I didn't saw how it happen, some people says she fell off on the ledge of a cliff frm the outskirts of the ruin city in Payon I suppose to give her that necklace when I found out during our travel .. it's a gift I supped to ask her to marry me".
Valenarr didn't spoke a word and looed with awe at her uncle. " But you know valenarr, the last words she said to me the last time. We have to move on.. If I will be not return Life will still move on for you ,she said. It's a bit difficult for me to understand but her bravery remains in me." He sighed.
"Its true no one will live in the past alone.. even at this time we have to move on.. no one is young when there's a war" she replied.
" Take this and keep it. It's my birthday present for you..rather strolling around the street of morroc and getting into trouble young lady" .
