I don't even know what I am doing with my stories anymore. I can't help it
The Night Watchers belongs to AvalonTheQuin
Loves: Moon, snowy nights, snow, forests, cold, hunting and hunters, fighting, the colors black, red, white and gold. Her family, friends and people who seem nice and kind. The night sky, stars, the ocean at night, when the stars reflect on the water. Being with friends and loved ones, especially K. The silence of the night forest, singing birds, being alone. Preys and of course small bunnies. Letting the wolf out.
Hates: Rude people, disrespecting elders. When people try to control her or think she is not capable of something. For other people to talk about her family, mostly about her mother. Graveyards, losing someone, showing her feelings. Keeping her true self inside, not being able to go somewhere. People that try to be something they are not, people who label others as something because of their actions, personality or looks.
Family:
Her father: King of her land and one of the best hunters, she respects him the most and always tries to impress him. He taught her everything he knew, he had to make her better than him because one day she won't have him to protect her. He was always next to her as an over protective father, he played both of the parent's roles since her mother was gone. He never found another woman worthy of her. He misses his daughter but he knows it's time to write her own story, because one day she will be the one to rule them all.
Her Mother: Once queen of the land and wife of the King. She had only one daughter, Neol, she loved him more than anything and for her she was the whole world. She always stood next to her and her husband , supported and cared for them. Just like the King she was a hunter herself, a more neutral one. She never killed her preys, only injure them. Unlike her husband she stopped hunting after she married him and had Neol. She died years ago.
Godrick Thurgal: Neol's godfather and the King's ( )other. Neol recently learned about this man and his target. She admires his hunting skills and just like her father she believes that Godrick is one of the best hunters of her land. She respects him and his purpose, she understands that he is not here for a family reunion. She looks forward working with him, something helpful for both of them after she joined the Academy.
Helena Viala: Godrick's daughter and Neol's cousin. She admires her abilities, unlike some others she believes that Helena's looks are nothing more than a positive thing when it comes to hunting. She learned not to judge her preys by their looks but I guess it applies to both enemies and allies. She likes hanging out with her and hunting together. She is a powerful hunter despite her age. The only thing that bothers Neol is the dedication those two have when it comes to hunting, it's positive but lately Neol's mind is changing.
Ancestors:
Her family ancestors were just like them, hunters and huntresses. Soaked with blood they died trying to clear their land from the beasts. Each of them a legend being told the darkest nights.
Her father's side:
Kargemelth Gradhound: Once the king of this land, Karge, the father of now called King. The first man to ever dare to stand against the beasts for centuries. He raised an army but always ruled from the throne. He was not a coward but a thinker, if the King dies anarchy will rise and no one knew who the next man that holds the crown would be. After he met his wife, a peasant the royals said, his whole life changed. He took care of her and their son and she never asked to be called a queen from her neighbors. His death came from the hands of a shapeshifter that took the form of his wife. Even after years with his son as the new king passed his name is still carved in the throne.
Her mother's side:
Vahgo the Bloodthirsty: Ivira's father, no one except her knew his first name and face. Vahgo was a warrior of his land, the first man of the army to be clear. His allies in fight remember a tall and strong man, scars all over his body, they could see the blood flowing through his veins when the enemy was near him. Pure joy and bloodthirst, not the best combination if you ask me. He used to be a hunter but when he met Ivira's mother he changed jobs to protect her and his land, he became a man of the army, someone you don't want to have as your enemy. He never completely left his past behind, as I said before, no one has ever seen his face except his family, that's because he covered his face with the skull of a wyvern, his favorite prey to hand. Of course not only wyverns but dragons and shapeshifters too. His late years he hunted a blood beast, he had it in his hands but he retreated after he learned that his wife gave birth to his child. No one knows what happened to him and his death is unknown.
Cateline Qerskan-Vahgo: Ivira's mother and Vahgo's wife, Cateline was a noble woman from the 12th domain. She came to Vallehel for a trip and there she met a young man named, her future husband. She tried to ( )ing peace among the people of Vallehel and the people of the 12 domains. She did not succeed but you could say that the hatred was forgotten. She never came back to her home but stayed with Vahgo, she found something inside Vallehel's people that seems like home. She was something like an ambassador and as long as she was living with them it seemed like a peace keeper.
[K] AAA WAKE UP SLEEPYHEAD *jumps in her bed*
[Neol] Da fck are you doing?!I am not sleeping you dumbo!I am trying to draw!
[K]oh. So what are you drawing :D?
[Neol] Nothing...what are you even doing here?My dad will kill you if he sees you in my room.Oh my Gods did you climb the window again?!
[K] Yeah!I almost felt down again but, worth it!Either way I wanted to see if you were ready to go hunting?
[Neol]Hunting!? It's almost midnight!We won't be able to see anything in the forest, what if something happens?
[K] That's why!If we can't see anything that means no one can see us too. Grab your bow and dress up because tonight we hunt!*That sounded nice*
[Neol] Fine. Climb down the window and grab your gear, I'll dress up and I will come. If my dad sees that I am missing you are dead. He says you are a bad influence...
[K]I wonder why! *climbs down* THAT WAS SARCASM BY THE WAY!!
[Neol]*facepalm* Don't scream you idiot!!I am stading in front of you!
[K]Relax and jump, I'll catch you
[Neol] What?!You can't catch me!
[K] PFFF I am stronger than you, I am sure I can handle you.
[Neol]....
[K]Just do it!
Neol started praying in her head, it wasn't a big fall, maybe a broken ankle the most, but she was sure K would just let her fall. But, she trusted him, he knew him since she was a small girl, nothing could go wrong.
[Neol] Okay, just don't let me fall *closed her eyes* I am jumping *starts praying* about now...just let me find some courage *slips*
[K] catched ya <3
[Neol] Did you catch me?Am I alive?Is that you grandma?
[K] cut it out Neol, you are one meter beyong the ground you can open your eyes and step down because I can't hold you anymore.
[Neol] I am not that heavy you prick!
She said as she grabbed her bow from the ground, she was happy she didn't have to grab her arm atleast. It was not the first time they had done that...well the last time K was the one that was going to jump. Don't judge them, they are clever kids...sometimes.
After a while of walking and talking they reached the deepest part of the forest where light can't go nor Moon can be seen between the branches of the trees. From wolves and bears to the most calm animals can be found there. It is , indeed, a common place for hunters, the ones that hunt foxes and the ones that prefer more dangerous games. They were almost there.
[K] So?...
[Neol] So what?...Don't tell me you brought me here to "talk" about something *smirk*
[K] Ehh you know...we don't talk that much after your father separated us. You are leaving me behind Neol...you are not the same girl I met years ago.--he always does that, sad face, when he talks to her anymore.
[Neol]I mean, I know I am not the same girl, after what happened...to my mother--
[K]Sorry, I didn't want to bring this up...but, even after the incident you talked to me more than you do now. Don't you remember?You came and found me in a time like that, you were wearing your night dress and you were barefooted. It was a cold night and you were crying outside my window. You slept in my home for the night...and then your dad came to find you and almost killed me after he saw you sleeping in my bed.
[Neol] Huh, he didn't know that you slept on the floor. You took a beating for me. Did I ever thank you?
[K] Yeah you did, you gave me that golden necklace with the red gem. You had one too..
[Neol]...and we used to wear them everyday...until they called you a sissy *laughs* you never wore it again.
[K] I actually did.--If she only knew that he never took it off.--Either way!Enough talking about our depressing pasts. How's your trainning doing?
[Neol] Need the truth?Awful for me and perfect for my dad. He said tommorrow he is going to test my skills and abilities. Even if I feel ready it's not enough for him...it's not enough for anyone.
[K] It's enough for me!You know how to use a bow better than anyone in the village and hot damn you can use the swords better than me. I saw you training with a guy the other day, I don't know if you can do better than perfect.
[Neol]Shat up, you always know how to make me blush don't you?
[K] I am an expert when it comes to stuff like that...SooOoo?Who's the guy *pokes*--When he want's to know something he can be beyong annoying but Neol loves his curiosity.
[Neol]Who?You need to be more specific *smirk*...--and she always likes to tease him.
[K] OH COME ONE, big buff guy, tall, ginger hair!!Tattoos and scars!He is an eye catcher!
[Neol]What?!Are you talking about Angus?My father wants him to look after me, both of them think I will do something stupid, I can't judge them. But, he is a nice guy, I trust him.
[K] HA!Nice guy?You can't take your eyes from him.
[Neol]Yes. That's how training works K, if I take my eyes from him he has an opportunity to strike. You really don't know about me, I am not interest on finding a mate. I just want to learn how to use two handed weapons. I can't even lift an axe!
[K] I can't lift an axe too. I mean, it could be wierd if you could.
[Neol] Why?
[K] Ya know, you are just a little adorable girl, an axe is not a weapon for a woman, it's, wierd?
[Neol] Oh really?Just give me some time and you'll see--Even today Neol can't use an axe.--Either way are we there yet, my back is killing me.
[K]Oh yeah, almost forgot about it. Leave your weapons here, we don't need em. It's just down this road, you'll see.
[Neol]But I thought we were going to hunt. I am confused, what are we doing here.
[K]Just wait and you'll see.
K got down the road and helped Neol descend down the rocks. She had never been that far inside the forests and she felt lost in the dark. As both of them moved farther down they finally reached what K was talking about. It was a small bay fill with crystal waters and dark rocks all over the place. It had two warped trees, from them three lanterns were lighten and one was broken in the ground.
[Neol]Woah...well, that's something new...
[K] You like it?I found this place about a week ago, you are the first one to now about it.
[Neol] What is this place, you should have told me days ago. If I knew I would have come here either way.
[K]Yeah, I know. I guessed it was just dock but it barely fits a boat.--He took a deep breath and sat down--
[Neol]I guess it's our place now?We can come here and talk or just lay down and do nothing --she sat next to him--Everyday, this exact time, the two of us.
[K] I'll be here, everyday.
[Neol] And I am wondering, even today, when I am sleeping in a velvet bed, when I laugh and meet new faces, here in the Academy, if he still waits for me, everyday, at the exact same place...and I never show up... |
