Battle Grounds

Great Trouble

Far of east , on a huge, high and very old plateau the weather was very cold and the plateau surrounded with a very thick mist that made the plateau almost invisible to anyone who stared at it even 25 feet's away. On a cattle terrace stood a old human like creature staring at the stars. It was almost midnight and silence had enveloped the entire settlement. This male human like creature stood on top of the terrace almost motionless. Suddenly, this silence was broken by the sound of a step behind him. It was a female of his kind. And she spoke, " Tama, what is it that you are here at this time??". Tama was the name of this male human like creature. Tama slowly tilted his neck to Eina's direction who was the female like human behind him, and said, " He is back,........Zavardon .........is ....back ". Eina's eyes poped as she stammered, " wh..... What!!!". This was the Elf empire , an empire very far from human settlement. The Elf empire was a very big and powerful empire and the only match to the Hugin empire. The Elf empire was occupied by elves of different age and gender , and some of these elves possed magic. But only few of them of course had such powers, the rest of the fighting force of the empire were well trained knights. Tama was a very old and gifted Elf . Tama was a "dicent" which meant mirror. In every generation the elves believed that one person was gifted with the ability to communicate with thier great ancestors. And Tama was one of them. But he was not only a "dicent" but the " Father of all Elves" . A Hugin will just simply term him as a king but to elves , a king is someone who has to be served but a leader should not only be served but also serve his followers. So Tama is not really the father of all elves but a leader. Eina was the wife of Tama. Now it was the next day and Tama was seated on his presidential throne when a NOBLE knight ie an experienced and very loyal knight usually the leader of the elf army , opened the door and knelt on his right knee . "Father, you summoned me?". And slightly lifting his back from the seat uttered," Assemble all your men, there's a GREAT TROUBLE".
