Derrion and Arracus sat atop the hill, watching the rising sun. In the Valley bellow them their people were just begining to stir. The white ruins of their city glowed a pale yellow bathed in the rays of the young sun. Derrion sighed deeply. "What wonders Mother earth has created for us to look upon," He said to Arracus, his brother.

"What wonders indeed," Arracus replied, "Yet no matter how beautiful this may be, I am still troubled, brother," he said to Derrion.

"What could trouble you on such a beautiful morning as this?" Derrion asked, concerned.

"I feel restless, Derrion, as if something is calling me away," Arracus replied, "I miss our sisters dearly."

"As do I," Derrion replied, "We have never been so far apart."

"I had a dream last night," Arracus said. Derrion perked up, faeries felt dreams to be very important.

"Of what did you dream?" Derrion asked, very interested.

"I dreamed I heard Mother earth calling my name," Arracus said, "I asked what she need from me, she said she wanted me to be wary and ready, she said something was coming," he stopped, there was something more.

"What else?" Derrion asked.

"She said our family should not be seperated, and that we need eachother now more than ever," Arracus answered, "I think Laeriel should come home," He finished.

"Are you sure? She left but three weeks ago," Derrion said, "The journey there is long, she has only just arrived."

"I'm sure of it brother. If not that, then we should at least go to her for a while. Something may be coming. No, something is coming," He looked at Derrion, "You feel it too."

"I do, but us faeries feel more than any other creature on this blessed earth, and we should be careful with that. There is never a need to make rash decisions. You should be sure, Arracus, sure with every bone in your body," Derrion looked Arracus in the eyes, "We may be needed here, you know father may need us," he finished, still looking at his brother. His brother's green eyes flickered with excitement and adreneline, his curly brown hair tossed carelessly in the morning breeze, he had been idle far too long. His brother's spirit called for war, but he lived in peace. Derrions brown eyes looked seriously at his brother. He spoke calmly, "If you feel you need to go," he said to Arracus, "Then I shall follow you to the end."

Arracus sat up straight, his face beamed, "Thank you, dear brother," he said, "Thank you, my friend," and he embraced his brother, just as the last of the sun's rays climbed above the trees.

"Shall we go alone?" Derrion asked, "Or should we bring someone with us?"

Arracus thought hard, who would come along with them? His face brightened, he knew the one person who come with them in a heartbeat, if they were to see Laeriel, that is. He smiled at Derrion, "Make ready," He said, "I'm off to find Rhylin."
