A tall, cloaked figure appeared on the stairs of the Arena, drawing Xenograg?s attention toward the stairs as the image slowly descended the stone stairs. Xeno cocked his head and wondered to himself why the figure looked familiar until it pushed the hood off. Teleperien gave him a wide smile, ?Good eve.?
Xenograg?s mouth dropped open as she walked toward him. He blinked, rose and continued to stare at her as she unfastened her cloak and draped it over a chair. ?Hello old friend, it is you, yes?? He hesitated, knowing that this would be the perfect trap for him, but all of his senses told him this was Queen Teleperien.
Her dress was almost luminous, and her long legs peeked from the sides of the beautiful Elven gown, she smiled at him, assuring him that it was indeed she, as she asked if she could join him upon the caller?s couch.
Xenograg took her hands in his own, inviting her to join him. She took back her hand and embraced him in a warm hug, ?It is good to be home.?
He remained speechless as seeing his old friend appear unexpectedly at the Arena. She smiled, ?I wished to surprise you, I see I have.?
Xenograg confirmed that and soon Hubie appeared with a grin, bringing two cups of Eldarie tea for them. ?Thank you? Xenograg told Hubie as he took a long sip of tea to clear his head.
Xeric made his way into the Arena as its new Overlord. He stood at the top of the stairs a moment before descending and finding a table.
Teleperien relaxed back into the sofa, ?I?ve missed this,? she observed.
Xenograg bowed his head slightly, ?Hail, Overlord.? Then he glanced at Teleperien, ?You have been missed, Tel.?
She smiled, ?I missed you and Amanda. Erwyn is very impatient to see her.? Xenograg chuckles, as he knows precisely what his daughter?s reaction will be to having Erwyn back.
Right about that moment, Alais coalesces from a column of shimmering silver to arrive inside the walls of the venerable Arena in time to hear the new Overlord speak to Xenograg, ?Good evening, Baron.? She headed for her sofa near the back giving Xenograg a wave as she does. She gave the new Overlord a nod of respect as she passed.
Wyheree slipped in as Teleperien?s voice lifted, ?Greetings Sister,? as she gave Alais a happy smile.
Alais paused abruptly at the familiar voice, ?Yer Majesty! G?e?en tae thee!? She was genuinely startled to see the Elven Queen seated beside Xenograg. Alais altered her direction toward Teleperien.
Wyheree gave a bright smile and waves all around as she wandered toward the caller?s couch just as Xenograg announced, ?Alais, Wyheree! Teleperien has returned!?
Teleperien rose, ?And to you,? she told Alais as she smiled and nodded toward Wyheree. Her hand reached for Alais, ?I am glad to see you.?
Alais gave Teleperien a deep curtsey, ?An? verra pleased Ah am tae ?ear such Xeno.? She then flashed Wyheree a smile and greeted her as well. It was beginning to look like a reunion of the Darelir group. Alais smiled at the Queen, ?As am I.? She took Teleperien?s hand, ?Ye?ve been fair missed Majesty.?
Wyheree swept into a curtsey for the Queen as well, ?It is an honor to see you again, your Majesty.?
Teleperien nodded, ?I have missed you as well. I am glad to come home.? She gently squeezed Alais? hand, ?thank you.? She released her hand and invited Alais to join her and Xenograg upon the caller?s sofa.
Wyheree smiled at Alais, ?Good evening, how have you been faring??
She chuckled, ?Och, lassie, Ah?ve been verra busa ?pon th? Isle, an? thee?? Then she nodded at Teleperien, ?Ah wouldst be verra ?onored forsooth.?
Wyheree smiled, ?I have been well, I have been spending more time in my home realm as of late, quelling some unrest there.?
Alais? brow rose fractionally, ?An? thin?s ?re gae?in th? way ye ?oped??
She gave both women a smile, ?Positive progress was made this last trip, so I hope to not be needed for some time.?
Alais and Teleperien agreed that was good news, and that they were pleased Wyheree could return to RhyDin with fewer concerns regarding her home world.
