Autumn Returns Before Winter

[renea]

``OOC`` I know it has been a while since I have been here, but my post where never answered and I have improved my skills so I came and thought I would post.


Autumn

This was it, she had to try, even if she was returning for the four time, hoping to touch a egg and have it hatch for her. That child, she was happy she was friends with a elf who told her it was best that she try one more time before she came here. Her beautiful baby boy, the sun of Elaniver, her love, her wonderful lover whom she never wanted to see hurt. She knew that would never happen, but she wondered some times, her fear was great, as was everyone's fear, but now she had her own path, her own reason to live. She had a son and if the egg did not chose her, she would leave it at that, she would never return to the chambers and she would raise that child for the rest of her life. She still held a want to be a dragon rider, to be that one being who had control and who had a purpose to want to help and be something more to this world. She had lived through the hell of her family members being killed because they wanted nothing more then to be a part of the Varden and of Surda. Autumn held that same dream and she was going to make the dream of becoming a dragon rider be true, or at least, be a part of the army that the Varden held. She also held the dream to go out and find her lover, she had not seen him in many months, she missed him and she wanted to show him his son.

Her mind was brought back as her black frisian stomped the ground and came to a halt not far from where the road ended and the beginning of the chamber started. She looked from under her black hood of her cloak that held herself invisible from the rest of the world. The midnight black darkness was perfect for this, she needed to go and get back home before dawn if she was to not become a dragon rider at this moment. She pulled the black hood down her back, her blond hair had lighten from the long days in the sun, her skin had darken to a deep tan. She held her eyes firmly as she looked ahead, her ice blue eyes were harden. She allowed herself to look at the place, her black frisian motionless as she looked at the gates that lead to the chambers. She patted his neck, her hand hidden by the black glove that went half way up her arm and hid the daggers that she kept on her at all times and the sword was hidden under her cloak that flared out around her. She was a sight to be seen, her beauty was defined wonderfully and her body was held with great pride and pleasure.

She moved her hand to her saddle where she checked her hooks that held her bow and arrows that would keep them from falling and being damaged. She turned her eyes back up to the gates and she removed herself from the saddle and dismounted. Her trousers were tight around her hips and black and she pulled her cloak around her, showing that she wore a tight black long sleeve shirt over her torso. Her boots were black and made with tough leather, meant for long journeys and tough predicaments. Autumn allowed a young man to come and take the reins from her and followed him to where he tied her black frisian up to the post.

"Curse, you be nice and do not make trouble, I will be back when I finish in the chamber," She allowed her voice to touch his ears with gentleness. She held a kind, sweet, caring voice, but she also held a toughness and sharpness about it that she never allowed to change unless she had to. The young man turned towards her and she looked him in the eyes. "Where do you live?" He nodded to the small home just across the street and she nodded. "I will being the money to you after I return from the chamber depth, I do not need someone being paid and then taking my stallion." She showed her trust was not one that she could take lightly and she looked him dead in the eye, her body was relaxed but that did not matter, she could move quickly.

Autumn moved her body towards the gates, her body flowed over the dirt road with a gracefulness about it that not many held. She did not care much about anything, she just knew she had to show she held pride in herself, she did not need to look down on herself, when she knew that would only allow other to look down on her also. She moved to stand before the guards that held themselves up as if they were going to attack any who approached them. One of the men was a elderly man, but he was still in good condition to fight his own battles and then the other was a much younger man, possible a head strong young man who had been placed under the older to have a lesson taught to him.

"Stop there Woman," Her guess about the young man was true, he seemed full of himself. She allowed her ice blue eyes to travel to look at him and she narrowed her eyes with ease and then looked at the older man. His arm moved with slowness until it was in position and then she heard the might slap that went over the young man's helmet and caused him to bark in pain and growl under his breath. Autumn allowed a smile to grace her lips before she let her eyes fall on the elder and she gave him a kind smile and opened her mouth to speak.

"You do not need to speak of why you are here, we grant you entrance into the chamber," She closed her mouth, gave a smile and glanced at the young man who had taken his helmet off and rubbing the back of his head. She moved past them and through the opening when she heard another hand to head hit by the old man. "Replace your helmet your stupid idiot, do you want a arrow to go through your head?" The young grumbling was easily heard, but then she heard nothing and just went deeper into the dark cave, which was lite with the same thing she had seen before, the Dwarven lights she had heard about.

It did not take long to each the door that lead into the chambers and she opened them with a bit of force before she walked in, removing her cloak and her gloves as she walked into the egg filled cave. She looked around, her eyes looked at each egg and then to the Eldunari of the dragon and then allowed herself to walk out over the sandy floor. She allowed her eyes to look at the Eldunari and she stopped feet from it and let her ice blue eyes settle on it.

"Great protector of these eggs, I ask that your lead me to the egg that is meant for me if it is in here. Are one of these eggs meant for me? Or is there another within the Empire that holds itself for me?" She was silent for many moment, her ice blue eyes were soft as she stuffed her gloved into the belt that held her sword and then turned her eyes on the eggs that were at her feet. She laid her cloak down on the sand and moved through the eggs, closing her eyes and then opening them before she let her eyes land on a pink egg which set apart from the others. She set down, her legs folded to allowed herself to sit comfortably and placed her hands on the egg, which made her smile. She wanted to be a dragon rider and she glanced at the Eldunari, hoping that this was the egg for her before she looked back at the egg and placed it on her lap.

"Are you for me little one, or for someone else?" The voice echoed into the shell, the small ears picked it up like it was a normal talking voice and not a whisper that had come from the lips of the young lady who held the egg. The feeling of warmth coming from the outside of the protective shell, causing the small body inside to move with ease and then stopped, allowing itself to look at the shell.

"I am for you... Please stay with me,"

[/color] The little voice inside her head was only heard by him, but she just set there, waiting and hoping to see the face and the figure of the woman who held her protective egg.[/blockquote][/center][/size]

Weeks pass, but there is no word.

You may try again any time you wish.
