Alessandra returned home after the tournament and made her way up to her rooftop garden and hummed softly to herself as she looked over her plants. She was happier than she had been in a long time. Her mind drifted back to the evening and all of the events that had transpired.

Over the past few weeks since he had joined the Legion she had spent a great deal of time with Evoroth. From the moment that they had met they had a special connection. She had found herself waking up and seeking him out and spending more and more time by his side. Certainly it couldn’t be… love? She had been worried that her feelings were becoming too strong too quickly and had convinced herself that he thought no more of her than any of her other guild mates. She easily fooled her head into believing that, but her heart was different. The way it skipped beats when he looked at her… the way she could barely breathe when he was helping her train.

He had made sure that she would be attending the tournament and she readily agreed. To spend more time with him, although she was still unsure of his feelings, would be most welcomed. She had also agreed earlier to be a part of an exhibition event with herself and Molly, as entertainment before the real tournament began. She was nervous since she had not really fought in front of anyone outside of her guild mates, but she was told to not worry. She arrived at the Legion stronghold early with the hopes of spending time with Evoroth, and sure enough he was there when she arrived. She smiled shyly at him and he came to her and said hello. She couldn’t be sure but it had sounded as though he had called her his love, and she was slightly confused.

More and more people arrived, making conversation impossible. It wasn’t long before she was being told it was time for her to go inside. Before she realized it she was in the stronghold and there in front of her was Evoroth asking her to marry him. She was shocked, because he hadn’t even hinted at his feelings. She was unable to speak and when she didn’t say anything he was sure she declined. She was in a state of shock for the rest of the evening. It wasn’t a question on how she felt, because she truly felt that they had been brought together by fate.

After the tournament they excused themselves from the rest of the crowd and Alessandra explained to him her fears, and he listened to her and assured her that her fears were not valid. She explained that there was one final thing that needed done before she could fully agree, and that would be to contact her mother. She would send a message to her first thing in the morning, and with that they said their goodnight with a gentle kiss and love upon their hearts and minds.

As soon as she finished with her plants she went downstairs to her private quarters and composed a letter to her mother. She hoped that it would get a quick response and after seeing it sent she retired with a smile and dreams of a bright future.

Unknowing what to expect for the future and most shocked at the response from Lady Allessandra, Evoroth walked around in a daze for the remainder of the evening. After Allessandra took her leave, Evo refitted his gear and mounted up in preperation to head to the Yew Outskirts to see what action he might find a such a late hour. Scrolling through his runebook he stopped and sighed, and for a second he thought he could envision what what Allessandra was doing, he pictured her amongst a beautiful garden walking happily.

At this thought Evoroth smiled, cause now he knew for sure that she was not simply appeasing him, which was his biggest worry, so scared was he to risk his feelings, wounds in combat were one thing that could be endured but the have a wound inflicted upon his heart was soemthing that he was reluctant to risk. Even so, he closed his eyes and tried to continue envisioning what she was doing, always keen with his senses, and extrasensory perception Evoroth sat in a state of tranquility for a moment when suddenly he dropped his runebook out of his hands onto the ground. So happy and lost in the moment he lost track off what was going on at the present time. Saying the words to make the ethereal companion disapear, he again closed his eyes trying to return to that state of mind.

Then before he could comprehend what was happenning he envisioned a family, and children, and a home on and isle of their own. The thoughts overwhelmed him so much he completely fell over. Trying to grasp his feelings and at the same time wondering if he had enhanced his clairvoyant powers, he reached desperately for his rune book. Once in hand he stood up thumbed to the page for the Marked Location in yew, and then reshut the book. He looked down and thought to himself that there was more then battle in his life, and that night he made the first step toward experiencing something more rewarding than rank and knighthood.

He was most definately sure he was experience love!!
