Chapter 6 - Sing For The Moon (Chapter 6)

As she dreams a girl that looked like her was sitting by a lake moving there hands in the waters. As if expecting her she turned to meet her with a smile. "awaken for the beast will come" the twin girl spoke. She was confused as to what she meant when a scream pierced the quite of the night. it awake her a strong wind blew towards them the faint smell of iron was in the air, this alarmed her causing her to got up extremely fast, those around her slowly awakening from there rest. The sound of breaking and smashing could be heard then nothing. The guards were pulled out there weapons, some carrying swords others axes and a two with bows, there were a total of twelve guards.

More screams rang out in the night as people were running from the other side of the port town and pass them towards the boats while some ran into the woods. smoke was raising from the north as Ellehish began to see fire on some of the buildings. The smoke moved in a unnatural way becoming a dense wall of smoke, moving towards them. she watched as the town guards moved to help the people that where running while some ran into the smoke wall. Her ears picking up on what one town guard that stopped one of the fleeing people. "By the divines what is happing?" they asked. They answered" Its the wild hunt lord Hircine has come!"

Her blood ran cold as she heard that name, looked up to see the moon began to turn Blood Red. Horns bellowed in the distance as a body was throw from within the Smokey wall. it landed in front of the slaver group, its body torn as its guts hanged out from its body through a large gash. extremely large silhouette were beginning to show up just a feet within the smoke wall. A long staff was in its hand while horns where on its head thought she could not be sure do to the smoke. She began to shift as her ears grow fur and her claws grow long while both of her eyes turned red. But she felt when its eyes landed on her. The hard feeling of a hunter becoming pray was all she could feel.

This raw feeling of fear caused her to tremble. "The hungry cat has come!' S'lani spoke in a shaky voice backing away but being stopped because of his chains. From the Smoke werewolf and werebears streamed out of the smoke, many of the guards began to flee leaving them chained there. deciding to take her chances Ellehish used all of her strength in a panic to break the chains the held her with S'lani to the tree freeing them both. The other slave's hearing this turn to her and beg to be freed as well, but those beast where getting closer only slowed down by some guards that choose to fight rather then run they managing killing a few werebeast in the prosses.

She reached out with her claws and began to break there chains. just as she finished a werewolf jumped at her its clawed hands reaching for her as its mouth was open ready to devour her. suddenly a strong pushing was felt on her side as she fell into the cold water. It was the old orc that had spoken before, she watched as the beast sank its claws and fangs into him. The other slaves began to flee though many were not luck as the other beast slashed and bit into there flesh. A arm began to pull her in the water away from those things. As she followed the fur covered being in the water a smaller one next to it. they swam away from the port town as howls were heard ring out in the night as if in song. They swam for some distance until they reached a small off shore island.

Resting on the beaches shore line the two other panting as Ellehish got up only slightly winded as she looked back towards the port town. There at the pear stood the massive being she saw in the smoke wall. A trident in its hand but it had five points instead of four. A massive dear skull rested on its head while blood red eyes shinned from its sockets. it felt as if it was still looking at her, no she was sure it was. The only reason she could see it was do to here bloodline power. She moved to pick up both of the others that had flied with her, as she looked to her surprise it was S'lani and the small child from before. "its not safe here we need to keep moving" Ellehish said her transformation haven been undone while they swam here.

"this one agrees but needs a second of rest' he said as he rested in a sitting position while the kid was still laying face first into the sand. As she reached out with her hand to check if the kid was still alive. once her hand touched him the raw emotion of what he was feeling filled her mine. Panic, Fear, tiredness and dread was filling her, pulling back her hand the connection stopped. it took a bit for those feelings to leave her mind. As a notification rang out in front of her, The Lord of beast watches. As she clicked on it with her mind it open up its description.

All that was there was question marks and a few Daedric symbols. Guess things she still cant understand. As she looked around see saw the dead bodies of horkers around the beach shore. They all get up following the shore line for a bit coming across a small boat, deciding it was best to just get as far away from this place. They get on as the kid gets in the middle and while Ellehish got to the top while s'lani when to the bottom and picked up the paddles. As the started to move away from that place.
