THE ATTACK

{CITY OF YUVAR - THE TORAN CAMP]

Dalaest groaned as he turned over in bed. He groggily opened his eyes and looked around his room before finally sitting up. He looked to his left and saw a naked Xenash lying there on her belly with the drapes covering her waist. 

He reached his hand out and stroked the hair out of her face so he could get a better look. It was moments like this where he felt some level of remorse for what they were doing.

The idea of siblings being together was not a conventional one in Quasar. And it was even less conventional among the elves.

He wondered what his father - the former elven king - would say to him if he were alive. What would he do? Would he accept something like this?

Probably not.

Xenash mumbled something incoherent and moved around in the bed, trying to get into a better position. Dalaest was about to wake her up but then a loud noise from outside quickly drew his attention.
