Years between my Governorship in Skara and now had been truly delightful and even depressing. I had pretty much kept to myself for a few different reasons. Beyond the knowledge of most around me, I had been involved in a Love affair. This time of year had brought out the memories of this. The results of the said affair had been fattening and by that, I mean literally fattening, the pregnancy had kept me hidden from the world, I had become fat as a cow going to slaughter. Little had I known that not only a single baby was to come but twins. Yes just shortly after my disappearance I had become a mother of twins, two sweet adorable babies, a boy, and a girl. After my Fathers death, I had sought the comfort of being in love and having warm arms around me at night, our plans had been to marry after the baby was born. He was thrilled when the twins were born and became a wonderful father. Life, however, isn't always fair. In one of his missions to help the King he had been killed, leaving me alone, unwed and a single mother of two infants. A healthy and big Blonde Haired freckle face boy and a beautiful brown haired tiny little girl as sweet as candy.
I had not been in touch with my half-sister or most of my family, keeping the babies safe was my only desire and Daenyra was a loaded cannon and could put my children in danger. So I had stayed hidden away and cared for my babies alone. Laundry had now become my task to bear, and loads and loads of it, Diapers seemed to pile up quickly. Now I didn't have servants to help me, a luxury I had taken for granted. Not that I didn't have money for one, more because the fewer people who knew about my children the safer they stayed. So Airva the female Dragon I had always cared for became a baby sitter on my trips to the river to wash the clothes and my babies were little dragons to her. Not that they were literally Dragons just that is what I called them. My Little Dragons. One such trip to the river as I was on my knees scrubbing the poo stains from the diapers, I heard the hoof beats against the ground intensely coming towards me, all of a sudden a beautiful Great Stag appeared from the brush behind me, looking frightened at me it seemed to calm somewhat at my appearance, then as suddenly as it had appeared it made its way forward and lept across the river in one bound. and disappeared into the forest. Then the sounds of a hunting bugle sounded and i heard the sounds of horses in the glade near me and voices. This was just totally uncalled for this was my home and not available for some bunch of trophy hunters to kill the creatures that roamed my homelands. Standing I could see them, looking all rich and arrogant on their horses, ELF, it was elves who had caused this, marching from my position at the river I stood before them, I had always been brave and had never worried about charging into any situation, of course, I had always had Dragons to back me up but this time it had slipped my mind My Dragon was, well it was babysitting. My eyes caught his at that very moment and I had never seen such a gorgeous man, uh well elf. His brow had narrowed as he turned to see me standing there and as I stood there as if I was going to do something, I just stood there speechless. He must have seen the look I had or felt what I was feeling, as his furrowed brow softened and he smiled at me. Just that one look and I didn't seem to get enough of just looking at him. As I tried to protest against hunting in these woods neither of us seemed to be focusing on what we were saying. Smiling at me he asked as he turned his horse and looked at me " Are you in this Glade often? My name is Maeleall ", my heart then sunk. " Yes I come here to wash my B......" as I paused I knew I couldn't say that, " B..Bundle of clothes", thank goodness he couldn't see the laundry basket full of baby diapers. Knowing I had to tell him my name I couldn't give him my real name, so the first thing that came to mind is * you owe me one sister * with a big lump in my throat, not sure I could speak it just rolled out "My name is Daenyra"
Many meetings with this elf after that, in that very glade we met, always with Airva babysitting, The twins were growing up and quite the handful at times for the Dragon. Soon I had to either tell the truth about the twins to this elf or I had to end it. Fearing for the safety of my Babies I ended it. Maeleall had his secrets too, little had I known who and what he really was. Later I would learn of this. So I suppose not showing up the day I had decided to end it wouldn't be enough, a few weeks later as i looked out the window at the Twins toddling about the yard outside the stone house, I saw the horse I knew so well approaching with Maeleall sitting atop it. Stopping in front of the twins, Arvia was watching nearby so I knew the children were safe. I could hear him speaking to the twins and shortly he rode away. Calling the twins inside I asked, "What did that elf want?", to busy with the chicken they had lured inside, "Look Mommy it follows us" trying to grasp the attention of the youth sometimes isn't always easy and again I repeated, "What did that Elf man say to you two?" as my son looked up at me "Oh he asked us if we knew where Daenyra lived.." as my eyes widened I just had to ask "..so what did you tell him? You did not tell him that was your Aunty? Right?" , I had told them of their Aunts but I had never told them their Aunts did not know they had been born. "Oh we did not tell him she was our Aunty, Mommy I knew you don't like anyone to know about our family" pipes up my Daughter. She was very clever beyond what was told to her she seemed to know things. " So what did you tell him then?" I quickly asked. " We told him she lived on the ice" smiling at me with her sweet little smile. A deep sigh of relief but how long would it be before he returned to find out more, or the fact if he went looking and found Daunyra he would learn she wasn't me.
Following the day of his arrival we packed and prepared our move, we would have to move far enough away he didn't find us again. Knowing it could be dangerous but yet also knowing this elf discovering who we were was also dangerous for my children we ventured to a peaceful place in familiar surroundings near the city of my last connection and a place I was meant to guard, Dragonhame mountain and the Dungeon of Dragons. Ticked away with a wall built around the home as a tard for the children to play and a safe place to live but with the best of intentions of running away, again life became fattening, this time not quite so fattening and recently a new Son was born and now I had Three.....Little Dragons
