L'aen (Lane)<br/><strong>Who:</strong>Astir, Open<br/><strong>Where:</strong>Sadghan Lake and Forest<br/><strong>When: </strong>8th Day of the Hunger Moon<br/><hr/><em>Astir</em>That was his captors name.  He heard it as the second one approached and called him by it.  They exchanged a few looks and words about him and Astir pushed his heavy hand on L'aen's shoulder, keeping the metal against his skin.  L'aen obeyed, his hands crossed at the wrist behind his back, he went down until he was on his knees in the snow.  The large wolf took the pack off of him and threw it to the female, telling her to search its contents.<br/><br/>He watched as his belongings would hit the snow before his face fell, looking at the white ground with his blue eyes.  He didn't move a muscle, as the man tied the rough rope around his wrists and was about to answer Astir's question, until he heard a rush of steps.  Usually he would have looked to see who approached but he didn't he figured that this was it.  Tears of fear streaked his eyes and had anyone sensed his aura they would seem a bit warm, his whole body stayed warm, even as a child.<br/><br/>A female.  With a strong voice, signifying she was higher than the previous two wolves, spoke.  She told the male wolf captor known as Astir to stand down and after he had left, she knelt by him.  Yet another wolf had approached, Astir being told to go with him.  The movement directly near him caused him to turn his head slowly toward it, then look back at the snow.<br/><br/>Meekly he answered the female in hushed and nearly exhausted tones.<strong>"My name...is Nel'aen', Nel'aen' Ahn Saa.  I have traveled from my pack, the Ghaltsel, to give a warning to the Nadaecki Tribe.... and to escape them, under the ruse of a spiritual journey.  I have been getting omens, as well as hearing talk about the Ghaltsel tribe planning something against the Nadaecki.... I don't know if the bad omens and the plans are connected... but I came to do what felt right.  I am at peace with my fate now."</strong>He said holding himself in a high regard as he bowed his head to the pack leader.
