Mage and Warlock finally arrive in the more rock terrain that was the border around Silithus. Jagged ledges loomed high over the pair, the earth and rocks were darker in hue compared to the light-colored sands. A positive for Kelset was at least the ground was a lot more solid. She had expected them to be greeted by raging Elementals, but instead, hardly anything seemed to be here. All they saw were a few lizards scampering about.

"Nothing is here." Kelset huffed, tired of traveling around this place. It was hot, sticky, and barren. Not to mention dirt and sand getting blown in her face.

Lucen gave a crooked grin. "There is, we just to get to them worked up."

Heat began to build as wind swirled and kicked up. Ash and sparks gathered in an area directly in front of Lucen as he summoned a Dreadsteed, a hellish creature seemingly born of fire and ash, seemed to paw its way from the earth being scorched by heat and flame. The sound it emitted was something close to a horses neigh, but distorted and frightening. Several large horns jutted from the mount's head. Two extremely long and fearsome looking ones came from the creature's chest, swooping back over the shoulders. Around each hoof fire came to life, threatening to consume all it touched. Kelset could feel heat surging from the steed, but Lucen mounted it with ease and was unaffected.

"Sit tight, I'll wake the earth up and gather them. I want you to unleash a volley of spells and take them down quickly."

Kelset nodded in agreement, although she did wonder why they hadn't just rode on the back of the Dreadsteed to get out there in first place. Would have been a lot easier, and quicker. Lucen turned the Dreadsteed around and pushed it into a full gallop. The creature left a trail flames behind it, effectively damaging even dirt and rock as it ran by. This was enough to anger to Earth Elements in the area. Piles that looked to be simply rocks came to life and lashed out at Lucen's steed. Once ten or so were chasing him down, Lucen looped around to bring them back to Kelset. Once he reached her side, the Dreadsteed disintegrated in a flash of sparks and ash, seeming to melt back into the ground from where it came to begin with.

"All yours." Lucen coaxed.

She didn't waste any time getting down to business here. After all, it was a chance to flex those invisible magic muscles. Immediately, Kelset laid down a circle of flames that encased all the elementals. A few were turned into bombs that exploded on each other, and the last ones standing were assaulted with Arcane Blasts and Missiles. Within moments, each Earth Elemental cracked and fell apart, leaving their essence glowing faintly, proof that there was once life in those chipped and damaged rocks.

Lucen simply watched with a gleam in his eye as everything fell to her feet, as mana left over from spells filled the air around them, enticing him closer to her. Kelset's short celebration of giggles and smile was interrupted by being grabbed. Her face immediately flushed a bright pink when she realized it was Lucen who took her by the waist and had pulled her frame into his.

"What are you doing?" Her voice was a hushed whimper as the palm of her hands pushed gently against his firm chest. Her breath caught as she noticed just how sturdy he felt.

His finger gripped and tugged at fabric around her waist, his knuckles turning white as a few stitches could be heard popping. His broad, strong hands were shaking, breathing ragged and those glowing green eyes seemed to burn with thirst. Kelset's heart was beating against her ribs, and she didn't know what to do other than try to tell him to stop as his forehead pressed against her's.

"Lucen..." She choked on his name, which just made him press into her even more.

His breath was hot against her face, leaving behind phantom touches that seemed almost cold once gone. Even her nervous breathing wasn't as loud and noticeable as his own.

"I want it..."

"Please, I'm not sure - "

"Mana..." he interrupted Kelset abruptly. "I need it."

He nearly demanded her, making her mind race about trying to think quickly as to what she could offer that wouldn't knock him back on his bum. Then it hit her, self enhancing spells. She knew a few armors that might give him the energy was seeking her, worth a try at least. A soft blue and purple aura surrounded her body as she willed the Mage Armor around her. His eyes widened, and she could feel it when he began to drain it off her. It made her slightly uncomfortable and light-headed. Not painful, but a slight pressure.

"Again." He ordered.

Trying to sate him enough so that he would finally let go of her, she did as he told. Instead of his grip loosening, he just groaned and leaned into her even more.

"Lucen, I'm not - "

"Imbue your words with power."

Again he did as what was order, speaking spells instead of willing them. That's when his lips crashed upon her's. Forceful and hungry. Rough and lusting. At first, Kelset just stood there, not returning the kiss until his hands let go of her only to cup her face in them. That was when her lips parted for him and her eyes closed, allowing her self to dissolve into the moment. Both of them were gripping onto each other as if they were going to be ripped apart, as if they depended on each other to breathe even. Kelset no longer heard the heartbeat in her ears, instead, she could clearly smell a soft musk that was inciting. His lips were sweet yet tangy that made her crave more of it.

"Do that again..." He mumbled against her lips, not able to pull himself away from them.

Kelset obeyed, whimpering the words softly as it was almost painful to stop kissing him for that moment. The action only seemed to renew the hunger she felt from his kiss as Lucen wrapped his arms around her in a possessive way, a low growl building in his throat as he shoved his tongue into her mouth. This only lasted a few minutes before he let her go, nearly pushing Kelset off him. Lucen shut his eyes and lifted his head to face the sky, trying to calm his breathing, though his body was still quivering.

"I'm sorry. That was out of line." He sincerely apologized to Kelset. "I thought I had this gnawing hunger under control." Lucen looked down to his hands that were finally starting to become still, feeling guilty about the whole thing.

Kelset had been quivering herself, but more from a mixture of excitement and nervousness than anything else. She had only read about stories of Blood Elves that still fought with such an addiction, and tried to be understanding of it, even though she would never full understand.

"It's fine." Kelset assured, clearing her throat to try and sound more sure of herself.

She was avoiding looking at him directly, but Lucen couldn't help but stare at her. She said it was fine, when clearly things were not. He was curious about how much experience she actually had telling people 'no'. Had she wanted to, Kelset could have landed a few harsh spells, enough to force him off her at least, but she didn't, and he didn't understand if this was because she enjoyed him pawing at her, or if she simply never had anyone push themselves on her like that and it left her confused.

"First kiss?" He asked cautiously.

Kelset shook her head slowly. "No, " her brows furrowed together as she thought back. " I was eleven when I had my first kiss. A sixteen year old guy asked what my policy was on kissing on first dates, I shrugged, not knowing anything about dating. Or kissing." Kelset laughed nervously before looking to Lucen who was staring with genuine interest. "It was a quick peck on the lips. I've only been kissed once more after that."

"So, that may as well have been your first kiss." He shook his head, disappointed in himself. "I would have rather started a young woman off in a more gentle way."

Kelset laughed, her face flushing again. "Seriously, it's okay. Not like you tried to undress me or anything."

"Yea..."

He appreciated the effort of trying to make him feel better, but it just was not working, even as he busied his hands by gathering Earth Elemental Essence from around them.
