He stood in the grove looking around. The trees seemed almost two green as he walked among the leaves that seemed to cool the world. It could be any forest upon the world of Telath. Atl blinked as he ran a hand along one of the trunks. It was beautiful, and it gave Atl please to touch the bark. He was part of this world. His blue eyes looked taking it in.
Before him was a clearing surrounded by the trees. His Mistress, the Archdruidess, sat on a rock in the center of the clearing. At her feet, his tongue hanging out, was her wolf familiar. The Archdruidess looked at his briefly but then turned her attention away from him towards the darker parts of the forest.
Atl held his breath as his gaze traveled towards that dark spot. The darker side of nature stood their staring back at them. In it he though he saw a elf. His mind remembered the evil druid. His own eyes briefly meet the cold decayed eyes. Then to his turned away and once again looked towards the lightest part of the clearing.
Atl held his breath as he watched. The Archdruidess raised her hand. Light flooded the dark area of the forest. The light became so intense that Atl raised his arm to protect his eyes. He held his hand up as a scream filled the clearing. Finally the light faded, allowing the nimalni to lower his arm. Standing over the dark form of the shadow druid was the breath taking form of an alicorn. . . .
Atl suddenly woke staring at the ceiling. He looked around for a moment. Tariel was sleeping next to him using his chest as her pillow. He slipped and arm around her as his eyes closed ones again.
The next day Atl spoke briefly with his beloved, and then taking his staff of arcane and his long sword he set out for the Forest of Light. Atl had been haunted by the dream of the alicorn for three cycles now. He was not sure why but he knew he must find the creature of his goddess.
So it was that Atl stood at the edge of the Forest of Light looking around preparing himself for the coming search.
