Elena, Robin, and the Witch, who's name was Olgi were sitting in Robin's office discussing Elena's decision to leave the pack and go to the council. Robin looked at Elena and said, "Are you sure about this, Elena? You know that leaving the pack is not an easy decision."
Elena replied, "I know, but I need to know more about my family and where I come from. I can't keep living my life without knowing the truth."
The Witch spoke up, "I think it's a good idea, Elena. The council might be able to help you. But we must be careful, as we don't know who your enemies might be."
Robin nodded in agreement and said, "We will support you in whatever decision you make, Elena. You are always welcome back here with us."
Elena smiled, "Thank you both. I will be careful, and I promise to come back once I find out the truth."
Olgi added, "I will accompany you to the council. I have some contacts there, and they might be able to help us find what we are looking for."
Elena felt relieved to have their support and said, "Thank you both so much. I couldn't do this without you."

Elena stood in front of Robin and his pack, feeling a mixture of sadness and excitement. She had learned so much from them, but she knew it was time for her to move on.
"I want to thank you all for taking me in and helping me learn how to control my wolf," Elena said, looking around at the pack members.
"You have become a valuable member of our pack, Elena," Robin replied with a smile. "We will miss you dearly."
"I will miss you all too," Elena replied, feeling tears prickling at the corners of her eyes.
The pack members came forward, one by one, to hug Elena and wish her well on her journey. It was a touching moment, and Elena felt grateful to have found such a kind and supportive group of people.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Elena turned to Robin. "Thank you for everything you have done for me," she said, hugging him tightly.
"You're welcome, Elena," Robin replied, returning the embrace. "Remember, you are always welcome here."
With a final wave, Elena turned and headed out of the pack's territory, feeling a mix of sadness and excitement about what lay ahead.

The council members sat around a large table in their meeting room, their faces stern and serious.
"I want to remind everyone that the girl's presence here must remain a secret," the lead councilman said, his voice low and commanding. "We cannot afford any leaks or rumours to spread about what we discuss here today."
The other council members nodded their agreement, their expressions just as serious as their leader's.
"I have received word that the girl has left Robin's pack and is on her way here," the lead councilman continued. "We need to be prepared to deal with her."
"What do we know about her?" one council member asked.
"Not much," the lead councilman replied. "But we do know that she has some sort of special ability. The which has been working with her to try to unlock her full potential."
Another council member spoke up. "We cannot let her leave here with any knowledge of our true intentions. If she finds out what we're really after, it could spell disaster for our entire operation."
"Agreed," the lead councilman said. "We need to be careful with what we say and how we handle this situation. Let's make sure that everything is in place before she arrives."
The council members nodded again, each lost in their own thoughts about how to handle the arrival of the mysterious girl.

As Elena approached the large mansion house, she was in awe of its grandeur. The house was made of brick and stone and had a large garden in front of it. The garden was full of colourful flowers and trees, and a path led up to the front door.
When Elena rang the bell, an older woman with long silver hair and kind eyes answered the door. She was dressed in a long, flowing dress that matched the colour of her hair.
"Welcome, dear," the woman said with a warm smile. "I've been expecting you. My name is Freya. Please come in."
Elena looked as Freya and Olgi greeted each other fondly and followed Freya into the house. Ella's eyes widened as she took in the beauty of the interior. The floors were made of polished wood, and the walls were adorned with paintings and tapestries. The furniture was ornate and elegant, with plush chairs and sofas that looked incredibly comfortable.
"I must say, your home is lovely," Elena said, still taking it all in.
"Thank you, my dear," Freya said with a smile. "Please, make yourself comfortable. Would you like some tea?"
Elena nodded, and Freya led her to a cozy sitting room where all three of them sat down and enjoyed a cup of tea together. As they talked, Elena could sense a calm and peaceful energy emanating from Freya, and she felt herself relaxing in her presence.
After a while, Freya turned to Elena and said, "I understand that you have some questions about your past and your family. I may be able to help you with that."
Elena's heart raced with excitement at the possibility of finally discovering the truth about her past. "Yes, please," she said eagerly. "Anything you can tell me would be greatly appreciated."
"My Friend, Morgana has in the past helped people in a similar situation to yours. If you like we could go and visit her tomorrow?"
"Thank you Freya, I appreciate your help. I have a meeting with the council tomorrow morning, but after that I would love to meet Morgana."

Elena took a deep breath as she approached the council building. She had never been inside before, and the imposing structure made her feel small and insignificant. Nevertheless, she was determined to find out more about her past, and she knew that the council was her best chance of doing so.
As she entered the building, she was met by a stern-looking woman who asked her business. Elena explained that she was there to speak with someone about her family and her past. The woman looked her up and down, as if assessing whether she was worthy of the council's attention.
Finally, the woman directed her to a room where several council members were gathered. They looked up as she entered, and she felt their eyes on her, watching her every move.
Elena took a deep breath and began to explain her situation. She told them about her memories of her original pack being attacked, about her father's death, and about her brother Sam running towards him as she was being taken away.
The council members listened intently, their expressions giving nothing away. When Elena had finished, there was a long moment of silence. Finally, one of the council members spoke up.
"We will do what we can to help you, Elena," he said. "But you must understand that our resources are limited, and there may be no information available about your family or your past. Nevertheless, we will make inquiries and do what we can."
Elena nodded, grateful for any help she could get. She left the council building feeling slightly more hopeful than when she had arrived. At least she had taken a step towards uncovering the truth about her past.
