Chapter 1

All Ellainaraya wanted to be was a wizardess. Maybe an invoker or a transmuter. She just wasnt sure
yet. She wanted to study it all! But, no. It was not to be for fair Ellainaraya, noble born of the Darsylon
elven house of Sal'a'nathrean.

For upon reaching what the humans would consider the late teen years, just coming into the time to
begin studies in one's chosen life path, beautiful Ellainaraya caught the eye of Dunallarrean, a younger
son of the Elven king.

Dunallarrean was infatuated with Ellainaraya and his advances were aggressive. So arrogant that one!
His entitlement, impetuousness and egotism were an absolute turnoff for Ellainaraya. And the more she
put off Dunallarrean's advances the harder he tried.

Ellainaraya's parents were thrilled with the princes attention to her daughter and did all they could to
encourage her to be more receptive to him. They were good and loving parents, however, they were
also Elven nobles and were concerned with the status of their house and station within the Elven court.

Only Ellainaraya's uncle her favorite uncle seemed to take her side. He saw Elly, his nickname for her,
for what she was, a passionate and free-spirited, if maybe a bit stubborn, girl. He knew that she would
not be happy unless she could follow her heart, and this prince was clearly not where her heart lay.

Elly's uncle, named Hylluerian, was her fathers younger brother. Being a younger brother in the house
of Sal'a'nathrean, Hylluerian had become a warrior and had went off in his youth and fought as a Squire
for the Fortress in the war against evil before having to retire due to trick knee, while Elly's father had
become head of the noble house. He was ever so fun for Ellainaraya. He did not carry the same sense of
noble responsibility as Elly's parents did. He encouraged her free spirit and was ever a friend and
confidant. Elly loved to listen to his tales of adventure in his fight against evil and she too wished she
could one day fight as a wizardess in the wars against evil.

That is why it was him to whom she went crying on the day she found that she had rejected from
tutelage under the wizards of Darsylon. She couldnt believe it. She tested and she knew it went well but
they claimed she lacked the talent and was told she would not study as to be a wizardess. Soon after,
Dunallarrean approached her and offered to fix the problem for her, all she had to do was give him a
chance
