She smiled the corn whipping at her legs as she moved through the field, the moon lit up her brown hair which danced with every step swaying backwards and forwards. Her name was valk, she was the beauty of the village through she didn't act like the rest of the village girls. She preferred hunting, fighting and training with her majic while the others tried to make themselves look pretty , valk never bothered with those sorts of things beauty always came naturally to her not that she wanted it, it always drew a lot of attention to her, to much in fact. Valk sighed and gazed up the moon, she knew she had to get back, it was dangerous to be out at night. monsterous creatures known as valorks preyed on the creatures of the forest, they were much like werewolves but were much faster and silent then normal ones. But what made them different were the grotesque wings which clung to their backs. It wasn't that valk couldn't take them on, she had taken them down before but her mother worried and valk didn't like seeing her stressed, she had much better things to worry about then her daughter straying off in the middle of the night. Valk tilted her head her elvish ears twitching, she dived side ways suddenly just in time to dodge an onset of claws, she gasped as she landed heavily in the mud. Valk glanced up quickly just in time to spot the in closing valork, she wouldnt have heard it if it hadn't Been for a lone twig which had snapped due to its urge for blood and carelessness, it's Jaws were opened giving a clear view of its visious fangs which stuck out at odd angles. Valk narrowed her cat eyes picking up on its slightest odd movements, she smiled slightly she was in luck, it had limp in its right leg possibly from another encounter. Valk stood up slowly staying low in a crouch, startling the beast would make it lash out quicker and that was not something valk wanted. The valork stopped now only a few feet away from her, she could smell its awful odour and the tang of iron from its mouth, it had eaten earlier but not enough to satisfy it. Valk shifted her foot slightly and quickly bit into her thumb causing it to bleed, the valork picked up on the smell of blood and snarled lunging for valk who barely dodged jumping sideways . Valks blood whipped out wrapping around her arm and hardening into a syth like blade on her forearm. Elf majic came in many forms, elemental majic : fire, earth, air, metal and water, but the rarest type was blood majic. It allowed the user to control their blood shaping it into blades which hardened into a crystal like substance nearly impossible to break. Valk smirked at the beast and landed in a crouch " that all you got". The valork growled and lunged at valk, wrong move. She smiled and leapt towards the beast dodging it's claws, she stabbed the blade into its neck in one swift motion . She landed skidding at the momentum and spun just in time to see the valorks now severed head to fall to the ground. Valks blade melted swiftly, her blood ran down her arm as she stopped her majic. Blood majic was the rarest but also the most dangerous using to much could cause blood loss and had a high chance of killing the user. That didn't bother valk tho, she had trained long enough to know how to restrain her majic, but that didn't mean she hadn't made mistakes before, she sighed and glanced at her bandaged arms. " time to head back" valk muttered and turned away from the dead beast, she hoped that the other elves hadn't noticed her disappearance as she trudged back through the woods.
