Chapter One: Beauty In the Faydark

The sweet silence and serernity of the Faydark Forests in early morning. Slowly Krypton crept with his bow in hand. No twig snapped at his feet. Perhaps his silence out did that of the forest itself. He opened his ruby eyes slowly. He knelt down in the bushes. A male deer,a stag unaware of his presence. Just stood there, grazing.

The drow male smiled slightly as he cautiously slid out an arrow from the quiver upon his back. His eyes remaining upon his prey. Setting the arrow proporly in place upon his bow. As he aimed and concentrated on the kill. However something happened he never thought to happen.

Abruptly the stag's head peaked up, and Krypton's eyes widened. There standing before the stag was an elven woman. Up close to the him. But that was not what stunned Krypton. It was her beauty which left him stricken. She was slender,with long dark brown hair brushing against her back. She dressed in a long silver dress. And wore a silver circlet around her forehead.

And the stag approached her unafraid.She lifted her hand to stroke his fur. She had to be a wood elf. She seemed to bond so well with the forest creatures. The stag had lifted his neck to her soft touch. A touch Krypton would have given anything to know. If the stag's responce to her was not enough of a shock. The stag had actually let the female move to mount his back. She wrapped her arm around his neck and nuzzled her face against him. Before she had leaned back up, holding his antlers. She clicked her heals lightly upon his sides and slowly rode off with him.

It was when she was gone. Did Krypton realize he had lost his breakfast." Damn!" He cursed himself.This was something he had never let happen. But still that woman, he could not get her away from his mind. He could not quite put his finger on it, but there was something about her. A unique sence of beauty. A goddess like aura about her.

But he merely shook it off, stood, and turned. Heading towards Fier'dal. The elfven village in which he lived as a butcher. One of the best around. He wondered aways until he reached a clearing.Where his dark brown horse, Pongo stood and waited. Krypton lightly packed his quiver and bow upon the horse's saddle and mounted. He glanced over at the horizon.The sun had begun to come up. He lifted the hood up on his black cloak, that he wore. Then lightly tapped his heals upon Pongo's side and headed towards Fier'dal.

As he glanced up at the sky, he noticed dark clouds gathering rappidly. When he looked back ahead of him.To his surprise, a large armoured orc stood there in the middle of the dirt road. Holding in one hand a massive Bardich." What in the nine hells...." He trailed off when he glanced out of the corner of his eye. Orcs and goblins assembling along the side of the road.

" Halt!" Ordered the orc in the road.

Not wanting trouble, Krypton did as ordered. Pulling Pongo to a stop before the orc. But on of his slender hands aimed for a knife cased at his thigh.

Krypton stared carefully upon the Orc Leader coming towards him. As the orc stared up at him, he stared right back down." What can I do for you this morning?" Krypton asked.

The orc leader smirked," Dismount your beast, and drop your weapons now! Or die." He threatened.

Krypton glanced down at Pongo. Then the orc. He could tell he meant business. Krypton did as ordered. He dismounted. The orc leader stared long and hard at Krypton. The dark elf could tell the orc was trying to see his face better. Krypton too tried to figure the face of this orc. Who had a scar on the left eye. A scar Krypton would never forget.

" Have I seen you somewhere?" Krypton asked.

" I would not know, lower your hood." the orc ordered.

Krypton wanted no trouble, so all he did was as told. He lowered his hood. The orc's eyes widened." You are no wood elf."

" Can't put much passed you can I, orc?"

" You will hold your tongue."

Krypton charmingly bowed his head," As you wish." The orc looked him up and down. Krypton was nothing special. Just dressed in black boots, black pants, and a plain white cotton shirt with the top part un buttoned and of course his black cloak. His long white hair hung down, all but a small portion tied back a bit,his blue elf ears barely exposed. But he wore his little earing at the tip of his ear.( sexy). He had a slender form, but seemed to be well built.

"May I get to the point of why I stopped you, drow." The orc started," My men and I are known as the Bloodwind Orcs we are recruiting for the war on Norrath."

" Norrath?" Krypton asked with a lifted eyebrow." Why Norrath? If I may ask?"

" The God of Hate, has ordered it. Now then, drow are you strong enough to shed blood of every elf. Put to death every woman and child of Norrath? Or will I have to kill you here and now?" He asked seriously.

Krypton glanced over at the goblins readying arrows aimed at him. He thought then shrugged," Alright, I'll join you. Give me a day or so to prepare myself. I shall meet you at where ever you camp." Krypton offered." I will be wearing Imperal armor and a the skull of a great Dire Buck Beast Of Tier'dal as my Helmet.

The orc smirked, then that became a laugh,"Ah, so you are a great warrior. I can tell we will get along fine. Where ever there is screams, and flames engulfing the trees. You'll find us. If you need to prepare, then do so. Do not disappoint me" The orc warned and gave the signal to move out.

As soon as they did. Krypton let out a long sigh and picked up his bow, quiver and knife. Then mounted Pongo and lifted his hood. Making his way towards home.

" I can not believe you let him call me a beast." Came a voice. Krypton smirked slightly then glanced down at Pongo.

" I did not want to start a fight. I am not a Shadow Knight anymore. Not like my sister.Demona" Krypton explained to Pongo.

" I see. You're soft." Pongo responded.

" No, just wiser. Thats all. "

" Oh, thats your excuse. Or could it be that you are too destracted by that woodlen woman you watched this morning?" Pongo asked.

" You know about that huh?"

" Course I know about it. Why else do you think I am a magic horse? I can see all that you are up to, my dear Krypton."

" Thats comforting to know then when I am porking a woman you can see it." Krypton said and laughed lightly.

" Come to think of it, when was the last time you had sex with someone?" Pongo asked.

Krypton was about to answer, when he glanced up as they reached the gates of town, since they were open, he just rode in. Not looking at the wondering Feir'dal wood elves. He just wanted to get home to his house not far from the town square.
