but enough of that lets get on with the story
our hero is asleep in her Aravel when a women with Blonde hair and staff on her back
walks in.
?:Wake up Sis
Narrator: Sylvia's Eyes open and
they meet the face of the Elf who opened
them.
Sylvia: Lanaya Garas quenathra?
Lanaya: did you have a good Rest?
also Keeper Zathrian has asked me to come get you
he has a mission for you.
Sylvia: yes Da'len I did sleep good and thank you
I should See what he want's at once.
Narrator: as Sylvia said that her little Sister waves her goodbye leaving the Aravel
Sylvia then gets up and put's on Delish boots on and Delish Gloves on with Delish armor
it was Hardened Tier 4 it was Green and white and she put a green like Robe on it was cut at the bottom
giving legs room to run and it had a hood so she may hide her ears when around humans

Quiver but she notice's she no more Arrows but thinks to her self that she will get some latter and puts twin daggers in her cloths to hide them
she leaves her Aravel
and makes her way to the keeper but a middle age elf women calls her name.
?: Sylvia? your Finally up.
Sylvia: Andaran atish'an Danyla
yes I have awaken how is your mate?
Danyla: oh Athras is training with fredi
I think it is bow training.
Sylvia: I see and how is your daughter
I know she was sick not to long ago.
Danyla: she is all better now thank you for asking.
Sylvia: ok then I must go now the keeper has called me
Danyla: oh Sylvia before I forget Sarel has asked after you
something about telling the Da'len's a story.
Sylvia: oh I almost forgot Ma serannas Danyla
Danyla: De Da'rahn and Dareth shiral Sylvia.
Narrator: Sylvia then walked away from Danyla and saw Sarel
talking to a group of Delish kids.
Sarel: Children, hear of the fall of the Dales! Hear the tale of what makes you Dalish.
Would you like to go Sylvia?
Sylvia: long ago we were imprison by humans taken as slaves
Sarel: we were slaves to a human kingdom called the Tevinter Imperium
they did Evil things and use magic to hurt people then we were freed and given a new home called the Dales.
Sylvia: so we begun the long walk
We walked with what little we had on our backs. Some walked without shoes, for they had none. Whole families, women with infants, the old and young alike―all of them made their way across the land on foot. Many perished along the way. Some died of exhaustion, others simply gave up and fell by the wayside. A great number were set upon by human bandits, even though we had few possessions. Some turned back toward Tevinter. But most of us continued walking. And the gods rewarded those of us who did not waver by bringing us to the Dales. And for a time, it was home.
Sarel: we were free. For over three centuries. But the humans and their new Andrastian Chantry would not let us be. They pushed against our borders. They sent missionaries to spread the word of their prophet. They sought ways to subjugate the People once more. When we refused, we angered them.
Sylvia: They destroyed us. Even the Emerald Knights could not stand against the might of their army, armored in faith. In the name of their Andraste, they burned Halamshiral, scattering us to the winds. They forgot that once, long ago, Andraste's followers and the elves marched together. They forgot that Andraste called Shartan "brother."
Sarel: so now we move from place to place never staying to long
to upset anyone and one day when we find a home for us
we will teach our people who decide to live among
the Shemlen our ways and history.
Sylvia: We are the Dalish keepers of the lost lore,
walkers of the lonely path.
We are the last of the Elvhenan,
and never again shall we submit.
Sarel: nicely said Sylvia and Ma serannas
Sylvia: De Da'rahn Dareth shiral Sarel
Sarel: Dareth shiral Sylvia.
Narrator: Sylvia then turns and walks up to Varathorn
she went up to him to buy Elf-flight Arrows
but he is talking to a redheaded female elf.
Gheyna: they been missing for about 3 hours now
can you not refill my Quiver for me Varathorn?
Varathorn: no Gheyna not if you plan to look for them
the keeper said for you to stay here.
Sylvia: Andaran atish'an Gheyna and Varathorn.
now who is missing and why?
Gheyna: Andaran atish'an Sylvia and Cammen and Deygan are missing.
Sylvia: why how did this happen?
Gheyna: there is a human settlement
being set to the west of the forest.
Varathorn: the keeper sent them to do recon
to see if they may be a threat to the clan.
Sylvia: The keeper asked for me.
Gheyna: If your sent to look for them I'm coming with.
Varathorn: that is not up to either of you to decide.
Narrator: Varathorn then gave Sylvia 20 elf-flight arrows
these arrows are Elvan made they have chance to stun there
target, then Sylvia walked of with Gheyna following close behind her
the two walked to the keepers Aravel.
Slyvia: Keeper Zathrian
you asked for me?
Narrator: a tall male elf with a bald head
sat there on the floor of his Aravel with his eyes closed
but then he opened them.
Keeper Z: yes Slyvia I have a urgent task for you
how ever Gheyna I have already said no on this
matter why do you stand before me again?
Gheyna: but keeper if your sending Slyvia
I wish to be her back up.
Keeper Z: I have said no already plus I have something
else I need of you, Slyvia I need to head west in the forest there is a Shem Town
being made outside of the forest I need you to look within the forest Area I
have sent both Cammen and Deygan to scout the walls to look for weak points if anything
has happen you are to find them and bring them home.
Slyvia: understood keeper can I use Lethal actions?
Keeper Z: as a last resort if your ready to head out then go now
also ask your sister and Mithra to come here at once Gheyna you stay.
Slyvia: it will be done at once keeper.
Narrator: Slyvia then left the Aravel and let both her sister and Mithra know
that the keeper told them come over for a task she then walked into the forest
and stops and kneels down and prays to Andruil the Lady of the hunt and
channels magic into her self and transforms into a wolf with brown fur and
makes her way deeper in in her wolf state she gains all ability of a wolf in this form
she tracks hunts and scouts using her powerful wolf ears nose and teeth.
while running she picks the scent of her clan members up
she follows the scent and sees humans about 10 with three elf's in a cage
that is sitting in front of them she sees something dead by a man's foot it seems to have fur
but a human size body then turns back to her natural self and hides in a bush and aims her arrow up holding
about 9 with rope around them she says sleep casting a spell on her arrows and fires some of the arrows
fall on some of the humans hurting but not killing nun of them the arrows that did not find a target
hit the forest floor and a mist comes form them putting the rest of the humans to sleep
after all the men were asleep she stands and exited the bush she was hiding in
she sees 1 dead elf who was not of her clan
and performs a Falon'Din enasal enaste she then kills
the biggest human saying Fen'Harel ma halam
she then opens the cage gate waking up her two clansmen
saying Ar lasa mala revas both elf's woke up and stepped out of the cage
they been beating up badly she said for them follow her back to the clan and to stay behind her
in case there is other shams around but before they left they had
taken a closer look at the human size man with fur but it was not a man but a werewolf
she said with anger in her voice Witherfang might be near
her two clansmen shiver with fear after hearing what she said and with that they made there way back to the clan with
out any more fights breaking out if there was still humans around they did not run into them
when they arrive back with the clan she brings them to
a Aravel where elf's who know how to treat wounds
could help them she then makes her way to the keepers Aravel and enters.
Sylvia: Keeper I have bad news
Keeper Z: speak what has happen are
Cammen and Deygan alive?
Sylvia: yes they are okay they were beaten but not bad
enough that they won't heal up with time and rest I did
find a dead elf though I think maybe he came with the humans
but keeper there more I came a cross a dead werewolf .
Keeper Z: a dead werewolf? you mean she has found us?
Sylvia: yes I believe Witherfang has found us again.
Keeper Z: I see then we must go
Sylvia: where too?
Keeper Z: back to the Brecillian forest where this has started
we must find a way to end this once and for all I have two task for you.
Sylvia: and they are?
keeper Z: one is for you to tell Ellora
get the Halla ready to go at a moments notice
and for her to hook them up to the Aravel and
tell the rest of the Clan to get ready to move
Sylvia: and the 2nd task?
Keeper Z: I sent Lanaya Mithra and Gheyna
with two others to the Shem town to let them know we
want no trouble just let us be.
Sylvia: you did what?
why the fuck would you send my sister to the
Shems town!
Keep Z: keep your voice down and
it had to be done and she asked for it instead
of swearing at me go and retrieve them
Narrator: Sylvia had left the Keepers Aravel in a huff
but did what she was told to do she let Elora and the rest of her clan
know they need to be ready to leave and she made her way to the city
she had shapeshift again but this time in a Prairie Falcon
in this form her eyesight becomes much better
being able to stay in sky and mainly scout though
sometimes she does use this form to attack
Sylvia had found her targets both Mithra and
Gheyna who were being surrounded by 6 men
with one sitting in the back giving orders the rest of the
street was clear of humans probably staying in doors
till the fight is over
she then swoops down clawing her talons at the 7th guy
who looked to be giving orders taking his Eyes out and going back up
into the sky only to come back down in mid air she transformed back taking out her
dual Dar'Misus falling on one guy with her foot on his neck killing him she then
threw one of her Dar'Misus at one of the men's face hitting dead in the forehead killing him
on impack she then sprung around slicing the first guy who eyes are now gone neck open
blood squirted out getting on her cloths
Mithra then pulls out Slyvia dagger from the dead's guy skull
turn to another man who was still in shock and stabbed him
4 times in the gut killing him
Gheyna pulls out arrow out and
fire putting the arrow through man
she shoot at eye then shoot a 2nd time hitting his heart
the last guy just gave gave up but Sylvia was not hearing she grab his head
and snapped his neck.
Sylvia: now with that being

Sylvia: just what in Pantheon happen here?
Mithra: we were talking but then 10 guards came around us

end of chapter.
Doing this since 13:
so comment on this if you like it
and yes I'm still writing my other stories
so I'm only typing this once
Andaran atish'an: Enter this place in peace. A formal elven greeting.
Ar lasa mala revas: "You are free. More literally "I give you your freedom.
Ar lath ma, vhenan: "I love you,
Dareth shiral: farewell; literally "Safe journey
Falon'Din enasal enaste: A prayer for the dead.
Fen'Harel ma halam: "Dread Wolf ends you." A threat.
Garas quenathra: "Why are you here?/Why have you come?
Da'len: Little child; little one
Shem/Shemlen: The original name elves use for the human race; continues to see use as a slang Among some Elves
even though its meaning has largely been lost literally quick children
as'lin : sister
Vallaslin :When the children of our people came of age, they earn the privilege of wearing the Vallaslin, the blood writing. It sets us apart from the Shemlen, and from the elves who have thrown their lot in with them. It reminds us that we will never again surrender our traditions and beliefs. —From Codex entry: Vallaslin: Blood Writing
2nd: a 2nd in Dalish culture
is a Elf who must be a mage
when the keeper of a clan
steps down or die the 2nd is to become the new keeper.
Elven Gods mention so far
Elgar'nan: the All-Father, god of fatherhood and vengeance,
Mythal: the Protector, goddess of motherhood and justice.
Andruil: Goddess of the Hunt
now with new spells
Blooddrain a spell I made
it allows the mage to take the blood from
people who either allow it or if the person is asleep or Unconscious
to dispel the spell person must only move away
warning this spell can make some one feel fatigue after using a 2nd spell like Bloodpop
at the moment
only Slyvia has this spell
Bloodpop: a spell I have made
first the mage must use Blooddrain
but Bloodpop is by touching a vain or pressure points on the body think of
gentle fist from Naruto but instead of Chakra you use the blood you have gather from using Blooddrain
by pushing more blood into a persons body of the part you hit it turns into blood clot now unlike
normal blood this blood is alive and when a caster snaps there finger it pops and busts open taking a limb /head etc. you get the idea
now I'm done type to you latter
