Nutter Elf
Posted: Fri Aug 20, 2010 6:16 am
Caine was born a Twin in a small village of Moon Elves, already the village treated him and his sister as special. His elder siblings would be asked to do chores while the sister and he played. In many children this would perhaps have led them to being utterly self absorbed, perhaps leading to a darker tale. In Caine and his sister it just led to them not paying much attention to consquences, there never where any.
They grew up to the Tales and the legends of the elven gods, one stood out to the pair in those days. Erevan and his (Or her the Tales where never clear) boon companion Aestarian. They loved the playful two and never grew out of loving the pair. They gasped and laughed in wonderment at the stories and vowed to emulate them. The sister manifested magical gifts at a young age, turning into a Cat, well the first time she didn't quite manage the full transformation, a sorceror. Caine waited impatiently to show a similar gift... it never came. He shrugged and moved on, his sisters talents where amazing enough for him.
Still he taught himself other skills to complement her talents, she could take other forms and make other wonderous effects with her magic, Caine taught himself how to get into places that for some strange reason the elders of the village kept locked. The pair got everywhere and played pranks on everyone. Eventually their parents dispaired and asked the two to settle down telling Caine he really had to find some role, some path in life. He became a Cleric, unfortuantly for the goals of his parents, of Erevan of course.
Eventually the pair grew bored, they reached a point where everyone in the village knew if something happened it was likely the Twins. They could get away with nothing and the patience of the people was starting to wear thin. With no regrets the pair left their home and took to the road.
In time their steps took them to the land of Cormyr, and into the Hullack woods. There they met a woman and Caines life was forever changed. This woman always covered made him laugh and put him at ease. They bonded over a game, where they challanged each other to make a serious woman laugh, Caine lost and his admiration for the cowled woman grew. They spent other adventurers together until one day they sat in a small Town on the beach and a conversation started.
This particualr beach was haunted they said, by a woman who in life had watched everyday for her husbands ship to come in, one day she sickened and yet continued to go out to watch, a week or so before the ship put in she died. The husband grief stricken and wracked by guilt erected a monument on the spot his wife had died, cursing his own name, for not staying with her, not cherishing what it was he had. The pair sat talking, and reached a conclusion that those whose hearts are made to wander, should find another whose heart is the same.
It was after that they went for another journey, traveling deep into the Hullack woods, to some of the oldest trees of that forest. There in a place touched by something sacred. The woman Erelrae took a chance. She told the Moon Elven man she had a secret, and she wished to share it with him. She took her cowl down showed him at last the face beneath.
For a moment Caines hand went to his short sword. A Drow! He had been tricked, and now she was going... but she was smiling and that smile, that laugh no, the woman before him he knew her. She had not a cruel bone in her body, and that smile, could hide no malice behind it. He asked the question the first that came into his head 'Soooo naked dancing that true?'
They talked some more after that. Eventually he took a chance after she metaphorically beat him over the head perhaps, and kissed her cheek, she responded with a deeper kiss. The pair... never looked back.
Yet somewhere along the line one question haunts the elf. He does not know how, or why, but his sister his Twin vanished one day. She ran off to prepare a prank telling he and Rae it would be amazing... and she never returned. He hopes she is somewhere still preparing it, he hopes it will amaze him, he is sure in his heart if she was gone from this life he would know. They where one soul in two bodies, through now he must tell his sister they are one soul in three, as he became Bonded to his Rae.
