Real Family

Leum and Redan are waiting minute by minute to see if Ryall, who has been asleep for several days now, will finally wake up from this sick sleep.

"Redan, I'm going to call a doctor to take care of her and my friend Freya to check and see if her mana is stable in her body." Her face seems to be getting more and more disappointed by the day as she bites her lip because of anxiety.

"That's a good idea, honey...Maybe...This can be our chance to finally have the second child you always wanted." Redan seems excited about this idea but also worries about what his wife will think. He knows it might be wrong until finding out where this kid came from and where her parents are.

"REDAN!! We cant do that, we cant take away this child from her parents." Her face shows that she is mad at the previous comment.

After that, she went on a whole lecture on how that was kidnapping and reasons why it would be near impossible. The main reason is that humans and elves haven't necessarily gotten along since the great war. During the great war humans and elf's fought along side each other against demons and monsters that attacked them each day. Humans who were known for greed were only doing it for the money they were getting from the elves. The elves were only doing it to steal classified information about the human's weaknesses. Then on one fateful day, a human spy and elf spy saw each other and ran away from one another. Both of the kingdoms started to accuse each other of doing more things dealing with spying, attacking, and things like abandoning in a middle of a big battle but then it went to an official separation peace treaty.

I wake up feeling better than I did before, my body moved like I wanted it to for what feels like the first time in forever. It's time to talk to the people who found me and took me in and find out answers. My memory is slowly coming back from that one horrendous night. My dad's evil smile, my mom's face shrouded with a long grin. My Dad's hands grabbed me and dropped me out of the carriage. I will never forget the day and will live with it forever. My mind starts to fill with anger as my heart starts pumping fast. I can feel the magic flowing through me and an orb glowing through my chest.

"CALM DOWN" Redan screams and runs into the room with a worried face. "Your ok here Rylla" He embraces me with a big bear hug and tears start flowing through my face as I realize reality.

"Poor girl she is only seven years old" Leum puts her hands over her face and starts to walk over and join the hug. "We need to explain things to her." take her to the living room.

"Now how did you get into Kolan Rylla," She asked. Her body language showed she was generally curious and worried about how I ended up there.

"My parents threw me out of the carriage" My eyes filled with tears as my head keeps remembering the same images at the moment. I look up to see their faces in shock.

"I don't know how we are going to fix this Rodan...we can't just walk into elf territory. This is the first time seeing or hearing about an abandoned elf child. They usually love their children from what I have heard." She said questioning how they would abandon such a cute elf child.

"Hey Rylla" Redan says with a face of curiosity. "My name is Redan and this is my wife Leum." He says out of kindness with a huge smile. Even a young kid like me could tell he was such a prideful man. "For now just stay with us while we figure out what to do okay? You can ask us for anything you need." He waves someone listening in the other room away.

"Who was that?" I ask with full expectations of an answer.

"That is our firstborn and only son Milo. Milo Lanchester." His pride shines even more but quickly dims. "He is very shy and does not like meeting new people. I'm sure he will warm up to you soon enough though!!" He reassures me with a small smile.

"You will be safe with us Rylla, we are both mages of the empire so try not to think too hard about what happened, and let us take care of it for now ok?" She hugs me, it's the first time in years I have been hugged, even with my memory being as lazy as it is at this moment my body could tell. The warmth and comfort that she had bought upon my body was the first time in a while I feel like someone actually cares about me.

Then after a long talk about where I was at, The human empire, and many other things about where it was, my body was ready to actually fall asleep by itself on a comfortable bed. Not sleeping in caves...a bed.

Then the next morning I heard a big crash outside that scared me. It seems like Roden was practicing something...
