An unforgiving world…this is, people and children’s lives are thrust out into it, they begin so quickly and end just the same….so douse one life gained or loss make a difference to the overall picture? Most likely not to most….but even a flower missing just one petal, is never whole again.
A city under siege burnt and battered over night. It was small but just as easily a target. People of all races fled for there lives but most never made it out of the city, reasons for the attack were unknown and so out of nowhere no one had time to react. Also unaware of there attackers who wore heavy armor hiding all there features. Each of them bearing a strange seal on there shields and weapons non ever seen before, they cut down everyone grown, or child alike, no one was spared. Yet never did they take anything, only broke things and torched what was left…..
Two children the people of the town found at there door steps near death, almost wild, they were lost, confused and even more so, had no idea where they came from or how they got there….the towns people taught them how to behave, and talk correctly also giving them names, for three days the kids slowly begin feeling normal. But now this happened….
The two barely made it out of the house before it was burned to the ground, they ran quickly though the town, hiding under a tarp as the rain and blood seemed to pour. Hiding under a the tarp in the alleyway a young boy with white messy hair poked his head out and looked around. Then peeked back inside at his younger black haired brother who was trembling clinging to his brother’s arm. The two were beaten and bloody, but alive for now, but all hope escaped there minds as they looked up gasping as one of the mysterious knifes found them!! He walked down the alleyway sliding out his blade and rising it high into the air. The two clung to each other awaiting death…
{{crappy i know but you get the idea >.>}}

Yggdrasil was awoken abruptly from screams he heard inside the town. he smelt smoke and fire.
"what in oblivion?" he jumped from the tree and ran inside the city gate. seeing strange people in armor going after adults and children. even cutting down people pets.
"hey were did he come from?" one of the strange armored men attacked Yggdrasil who quickly disposed of him. Yggdrasil then Evening Starided to go around and help who he could. quickly coming upon one of the invaders after two children.
he grabbed the back of the man's helmet and reached his short swords across its neck quickly at the weak spot revealed by him pulling the head back and down, he was much shorter than the man.
"are you two alright?" as he threw the body down. he didn't sheath his sword to many invaders still around and knelt in front of the children.

The white haired boy slowly looked up at the stranger also seeing the ‘knight’ fall he whimpered and growled at him more or less and backed up. “stay away!” he shouted and clung to his brother and the tarp trying to make sure at least his little brother was hidden. He whimpered and glared at the stranger, when it seemed the stranger was a good guy he looked out a little more at him. “who….are you?” he frowned.

Raven and Draken`s father recently sent them on a perilous task..a suicide mission. How in blazes are they going to wipe out the Vermyny clan in one day? it was impossible. Raven and the small group got sidetracked and stumbled upon a city for them to feed on before they carry out their quest. The Vladmir clan had black armor on. Jet black heavy and light armor, spikes alongside the gauntlets and boots, making their enemies tremble in fear. The helmets that covered their face, bearing a frightning resemblance to an vampire. The metal sides of the heltmets where black with teeth covering the mouth and jaw area. They had symbols on their shields and armors. Red and black circle, bearing the seal of the Vladmirs, a bat insignia on the middle. Flames arose from the house, smoke filled the air, people running and screaming in fear and heavy armored things or people sl.Last Seedht.ered everything, including animals and children. Draken stood on his black horse, watching the massacre from afar. One of the clan members smiled and chuckled at the sight. "Downright macabre, haha"!. He l.Last Seedhedloudly so everyone can hear. Raven had on a very angry look on her face, it almost made her go down there. "We must help them!". Draken shouted.
Raven turned her horse around and went infront of the small group, including Draken. "Your sympathy for these mortals is foolish..you will get yourselves killed!". Raven said.
Draken sighed. "Are we not surrounded by a group of immortals?"
"Superbly, dear brother, however clearly infront of you, the mortals are not. And as I have pointed out, they are the grass on which we graze,". She said, staring at the fires of the city.
"I am aware of that. Helping them is most considerable. They would of gained our trust and we can enslave them to carry out our will. If that is not done, it makes us look weak!". Draken exclaimed.
"And how would you project strenght? Would it not be easier to side with the attacking individuals. They are merciless, fearless and they Second Seed be able to side with us, we share the same traits". Draken added.
Raven puffed and breathed a loud sigh. "Siding with the merciless bunch? have you lost your mind? They show no mercy for the people of this city and are gladly wiping out our food supply! What makes you think they will join us? do we even want to have them at our side? we cannot allow our bloodline to be tainted. And the savagery of this despicable act cannot be bred away..your fear for them is misplaced!" Raven said angrily, with much frustration in her voice.
Draken stared at her for awhile. "I think your fear of this idea is misplaced". He retorted.
Raven glared at him, not believing his defiance.
Draken continued to speak. "We can create a priviged class of warriors, cunning, decisive and put them under the command of the one we trust..perhaps our patriarch father?"
"No. We have no knowledge of the one they serve and what origins they are from. We can defeat them..this I am certain but right now it is best to wait and remain hidden. The plot that has transpired here will be revealed to us sooner than we know. Patience we must have.." Raven said, grinning and looking the ones with the puzzled look on their faces.
"You will learn the dance of politics..of war and fighting. We must be opprobious, truculent, ruthless & cunning. & above all you will be loyal to the family and clan..to me. After all, without the loyalty between us..we are no better than the beasts at our footsteps". Raven added, keeping an upright pose, showing her royatly.
The clan stood watch, hidden, observing the town turn to ash and its citizens being killed off. The flames and fire reflecting upon their pale and fearsome faces. It was a truly beautiful sight to witness.

"i am..." he paused looking at these poor frightened children " i am Camthalion. " he settled on his real name for once. " i was resting just outside the city. Now i am trying to help those whom i can" he looked over his shoulder, at the commotion around him. they were unnoticed for now. he smiled kindly down at the children and sheathed his short sword.
he then knelt down at there level. taking in the white haired one protecting the smaller darker haired one.
"it is alright, though we do not have much time little ones." he looked a round quickly again. noticing these strange peoples had there attention elsewhere... for the moment.
"i can get us out of here if you so wish, i fear i can not help too many people this day." he said slightly sad. "even helping out little ones such as you, will be good in the long run." holding his hand out too the little ones.
"come we can hide at my camp." his mouth twitched "it's in a tall tree. and i am able to climb from tree to tree."

The kids looked up at there savior, and blinked still rather shaken and afraid the white haired one swallowed and watched him. “camp?” the elder one asked looking to his brother then back to the man. “in a tree?” he asked almost surprised or would be in normal circumstances, would ask a few questions on how someone could live in a tree or how someone climbed a tree. “how do you get there?” he moaned lightly his younger brother still not making a peep.
"Oh....i'm....Baal and my brother is Modeus." he stated/.

camthalion made a quick run over of there features. they looked like elven children,
"i'm Bosmeri, trees are my things, here hold on to me quickly quickly i can make us invisible. before anyone sees us."
he smiled as he gathered the energy in his hand. "how you get there? the tree you climb it. i can carry both of you."

“uhu?!” Baal gasped and Modeus finely least looked out at the guy as Baal took hold of the man’s shirt and blinked as they looked around. “carry us? Are…you strong enough too?” he asked with a small whimper. Modeus held on to Baal, having to leave there small tarp thing behind Modeus and Baal both looked rather beaten and bruised up. They held onto him tightly when asked, and looked around Baal wondered is they were really invisible.

"yes i your just younglings, i can carry you." he cast the spell and held onto them tightly.
"hold on little ones..." he held both off them as he made his way through the city as quickly as he could. he would hide in a corner quick every so often to recast the spell as it wore off. the doors were ajar, broken and destroyed. the whole city was.
camthalion shook his head. never understanding the need for slaughtering, of hundreds. he made it outside okay, now time for his make shift tree house.
he approached the large tree, his makeshift house was in there.
"alright you two hang on this might be a little rough."
Camthalion jumped at the lowest branch pulling himself up it. he did the same thing till about half way up. he stopped for a breather. carrying two little ones was hard and push your endurance. he was glad they were still just young ones. he looked up only two more branches to go.
"how are you two little ones hanging on?"

Baal and Modeus clung tightly, but not to tightly or it’d be very unhelpful to all of them. They watched the world go by, how strange it was riding another human-type person. And up into the tree was rather frightening but better then being with the stranger ‘knights’ back there that still ran about creating chaos when there seemed to be nothing left they could do. “I…am okay.” Baal nodded and looked to Modeus. “were okay.” he corrected himself and looked down with a gulp then clung a little tighter.

he finished climbing the tree, and pulled the three of them up an a buch of boards around the top of the tree. createing a makshift home.
"alright were here little ones." he finished ropping the spell of invisiblitly.
"when there is no sign of any of those people left. we'll leave to a safer place. is that okay with you little ones?"
"modeus, baal are you okay, i'm sorry if the tree climbing was a little rough." he lookedat the two dirty, and bruised faces and his eyes softened. "come i have some food. you look hungry."

After they climbed inside Baal panted a little and looked around big curious eyes. Modeus only continued to cling to his brother tiredly, shyly. Baal blushed a little looking at there savior and tilted his head. “were okay.” he nodded then whimpered. “but,…” he looked back towards the outside world. “why did them people….hurt everybody?” he looked sad.

Camthalion sat down and grabbed his bag. "well littel ones, in all my years on tamriel, i still don't understand such sla.ughtering as i saw here." he grabbed out a loaf of bread. "i also have never seen the m.arking on those men before. men hold beliefs of one person that they agree with above there own. and follow them blindly. doing whatever the person says. not questioning right or wrong, and the in between. "
he sighed breaking three pieces off his large loaf. and grabbed some light fruit from his bag.
"come lets eat and you two can rest if you need too," he said as he knelt in front of the two.
"but first lets was you up." he had a rag he dumped some water on. he held out his hand.

Baal blinked listening to the elf and nodded slowly before watching him, his small tummy almost growling out ’feed me’ he giggled lightly and blushed, Modeus looked at his brother then to Camthalion still shy. Baal looked at the rag and blinked. “am dirty?” he giggled and took it then scrubbed his face off almost ferociously. Then turned to Modeus and whipped his Face Modeus reluctantly let him, closeting his eyes tightly. Still there was something about the black-haired kid, he seemed tired pale and almost ill but maybe just shaken up, who could blame him.

Camthalion smilled at the boys as they washed up. But frowned a bit as he looked at Modeus.
"Little one, are you feeling well?" as he handed them the fruit and bread. he knelt in front of Modeus. "can i check see how warm you are if you are ill?"
