An figure stepped out from a cluster of trees into an obscure corner of an otherwise moonlit glade. The person stood unnaturally still...waiting for others to arrive.

A young elf stepped out into the clearing, and came to a stop in front of the first. "Greetings, Valeska." Her brown-black hair was plaited into a thick braid, and gleamed a rich brown.

A white glossy coat shimmered as a ray of sunlight seeped through the thick overgrowth and bounced off the encantingly beautiful Centauresses back. She plodded through silently in the dry leaves, a pearl white and silver bow strapped onto her back along with a quiver of enchanted arrows. The bow had special Centaurian Khetyar inscriptions embedded into it and the string was silver.. still and silent. At each side of the Centauress hung a gemmed longsword. They were twin and had jewels of Sapphire and Diamond layed into the light golden vine patterened hilt. A thin silver chain held the two swords to her sides, a silver swirly arm circlet on her left arm, a circlet with the same vinish pattern also gemmed with Sapphires and Diamonds and an assortment of silver thin chains hung around her neck, the longest one with a special silver swirly amulet with a single Sapphire in the center. Her body was white, with dark brown stockings that flared over light golden hooves and a long light golden silken tail that she swished as she plodded on. Her half human body was slender; with immaculate slightly tanned skin, long dark hair that went up to her waist, curved, pointy elven ears which had an assortment of silver hoop earrings. SHe had lucious light red lips- only slightly pink but with a more brownish gold color to it. Her eyes, icy blue and her eyes outlined with black and silver. Her name was Asenceana- new to this land and coming from another. She approached the elf and swirled her hand in the air. A silver and light blue mist swirled around ehr until she was of an elven form. She stepped out of the mist, standing tall in a slender elven body with the same face and hair as before and wearing a black elven robe. She bowed to the elf "Greetings. I am Asenceana" She said in a smooth, calm voice, her eyes locking onto hers. (Black elf war gown with silver swirly elf patterns. High oriental collar which slits down all the way mid chest to a silver, white vest made of a very had substance but its very light... sturdy black leather boots and an assortment of silver jewelry on her wrists and neck, a thin silver chain around her waist togerther with a black leather belt which holds twin longswords on each side, jemmed with sapphires and crystals. The gown has long, flared sleeves up to mid arm and the rest of her forearm is securely fitted into an arm protection leather strap brace. Carries matching dagger on right boot. )

The figure who had remained cowled in shadow now stepped into a pool of silvery light, showing herself. She was an elf, growing tall and thin in the make of her kind. Like the new elf Asenceana, she was clothed primarily in black, but of a completely diffent style. Intead of a dress, she wore soft leather trousers that were cut off mid-calf, revealing hard leather boots and a dagger hilt protruding from one boot. She wore a tough leather tunic, crafted to fit exactly over her form so that it seemed more like a soft leather vest than armour. It was engraved with elvish runes and designs that invoked the powers of strength, agility and protection for the wearer. Under the black leather was a thin silk shirt, dyed in the deepest blue. The slightly ruffled cuffs were brought together at the wrists and hemmed in with silk thread. At the curve of her waist which was outlined by the tunic was a thick leather belt. On it hung various weapons and bizzare objects, the most prominent being a silver sword. The hilt was covered in black leather strips and the curved pommel was set with a brilliant diamond. Unlike many elven swords, the crossguard was not curved, it was straight. However, it flared outwards before tapering back into sharp points. Over her back was slung a quiverful of arrows fleched with black swan feathers and a glossy black bow made of some metallic material, not wood. This was the Valeska, founder of these lands. She raised a hand in welcome. "Greetings, to both of you. Welcome to this land, and may your stay in it be, at least, eventful. I am the Valeska, known to my friends as Zan."

Asenceana nodded. "I am Asenceana of Avalon. " She said, resting her hand on the hilt of her sword and standing still as a rock.

Zan nodded. "I know. In your world, Avalon, I was the centuress Celenai tei Zanzidan Kirishe, alpha of the normadic Kirishe herd. But that's over now." She shook her head, brushing back a wave of fine black hair, cut to shoulder length except for a single thin braid that hung down the left side of her face, ending in a silver pendant. Her skin was pale, a pearly white framed by curtains of black hair. A smile twitched her pale pink lips up in a smile as she said, "And now you shall be initiated into this land." She raised her hand, palm facing the night sky, and uttered the three runes, "Anka, Sethe, Kern."

"Your land is ally to mine then' Asenceana smiled nodding. "I look forward to adventuring here for i have not travelled to a new land in a long time. Maybe you could show me around?" She looked around the place, her eyes showing her interest.

"Of course. But first, give me your sword. Just one will do. I swear I mean you no harm." She smiled warmly. "Our lands are neighbours, and we would support each other in times of danger. This will strengthen the bonds between them."

"I prefer to have two of them together and then they will share twice the same strength." She twirled her swords in the air chanting something silently and then smashed the blades together. A blinding light shone from them, illuminating the forest around them. The light faded away revealing a long white staff with a sapphire orb floating at the top. The staff grew into intricate swirly carvings at the top to surround the bottom of the orb and spikes protrubes from the top as well, making it partly a weapon. She handed the magical staff to Zan.

With a gracefully arched eyebrow, Zan noted the complexity of Asenceana's spell. She was indeed gifted.
She silently accepted the staff and uttered, "By the spirits who created this land, and by the Gifts granted to me and this world, I now bind Asenceana of Avalon to this land. So mote it be."

Asenceana smiled. "So.. do you have a city here or something? Im hungry from that journey..." She smiled "Oh and remind me to bind your land with mine too." She watched as Zan held the staff. The staff was made up of the two swords, - the Jasmine Twin Longswords in the translation. She had got them on a quest long ago.

Smiling, Zan took the newly forged staff in both hands, twirled it the right way around, and planted it firmly in the ground. As soon as it touched the earth, the clearing welled up in a blinding light. Suddenly, all the magical things in the area were shown clearly. Zan blazed pure white, the night sky pulsed with blue and a similar light came from both Asenceana and Caroline. The most striking blaze came from the earth itself, glowing a deep emerald and fading to a crisp grass green. Whilst the land was showing off its magical abilities , the air was filled with the chanting of many voices. After a while, it all faded, and Zan handed the staff back to Asenceana. Turning to Caroline, Zan said, "And now it's your turn."

The young elf tapped her feet on the ground, staring at her broad golden wristband, set with elvish runes. She pondered the situation she was in. She wore a cloak made of the finest black silk with a golden hem. Woven into it was a spell which gave protection from most magical harm to the wearer. This was embroidered in gold thread on both the hem and the collar, which rose to the starting of her lovely hair. Beneath the cloak was a white gown, embroidered in golden thread at the hem and encircled by a golden belt that was inset with pearls. Its soft folds ended at her feet, shod in light gold sandels. Hidden from view was her weapon, of more accurately, her weapons, for she carried twin swords, crossed behind her back. From her belt hung a dagger, small and diminutive, yet lethal. It's hilt was all that was visible, and it was inlaid with mother-of-pearl.

After Zan asked for her weapons, Caroline shrugged off her cloak, drew her twin swords from her back and handed them over to Zan.

Zan took Caroline's swords, held them as she had held Arya's staff and did the same thing. This time, she thought she saw an additional blow from a fourth elf, but she could not be sure. While she handed back Caroline's swords, she said "Is there someone else here? Show yourself now."
