[Calairiel Mynendil Gil'dae]

She –had- to grin at his last statement. Calairiel had known –far- too many people that thought the same on themselves…but –she- thought their stories to be quite interesting. including his.

“ Oh come now, cousin….perhaps you don’t believe it to be interesting but then again, you live it. I don’t feel that my story is much to tell…but here I am. I grew up away from here…far away….with people that I believed to be my parents. Later on, I found out that instead, I had a twin brother…and that they were in actuality, my uncle and aunt. I came to Syl and met my twin brother, Motito, and learned what it was to be an elf. Now, I’m the head of this amazing House, a sorceress, warrior, wife and mother to be. It’s all happened so fast…incredible to think of where the time has gone. I’ve had my share of adventures….my –own- political adventure in Imperia as Lt. Governor….and many others, but I’ve found that nothing is more rewarding then home and being a part of this family. Romanticized ideas…I know…but true.”

Grinning a bit at herself, she smiled and nodded to the girl that brought them tea…offering a cup to both Calairiel and Eraisuithon. After taking a sip, the silver haired elf regarded her cousin again.

“So, tell me…what do you see in your future, cousin….and how can we help?”
