♥.:*¨¨*:.♥.:*¨¨*:.♥.:*¨¨*:.♥ Day 7 These blasted Darklings… I now understand why the Summer Queen cursed the wretches! Foul little creatures skittering in the shadows like cockroaches. Of course they would send no less than twenty from their stinking filthy enclaves to apprehend me. They knew better than to face me one on one. I felled three and nearly the Elder they took commands from before they utterly overwhelmed me. They should have thought better of ambushing a Knight of the Summer Court. Yes I saw her, this Eypha the Imperceptible . She took the cloak I intended to gift Faelon. By the Summer Queen’s wrath I will pulverise her into the dark scum puddle she is if any harm has come to my friends because of her, most of all; Faelon. He acknowledged me as “his apprentice” before I left to lure the Hydra away. Does this mean he regards me almost as fondly as he does his casks of tej? In retrospect, I think I might have some idea what Rhythm meant when she said “get a room” to Faelon and I. It may have been a remark reserved for romantic couples, or perhaps she was encouraging us to seek cover because I was injured at the time. I am pretty certain that Faelon does not view me in any sort of romantic fashion; at least he certainly doesn’t act like it. I don’t believe he’s ever even complimented me; Save for regarding me as an apprentice which I suppose is a compliment in and of itself for him. I believe her comment must have been the latter. Perhaps I’ll ask Faelon about Rhythm’s remark and glean his opinion on the matter. … I wonder how Borgen fares? I am certain Velverin is relieved to have one less “fey” lingering around him. Why am I so angry with him for what he said? This is a common sentiment amongst Drow. Do I actually care about him and what he thinks? … No, no. Absolutely not , I refuse  to admi—No, I refuse to believe it. He said it himself. He can’t be trusted. … I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll get out of this enclave and when I do, Eypha had better be certain she is well out of my line of sight. Once I’m done with her, then I’ll figure out where the Ring of Winter and the Soul Monger are and finish the mission I set out for. ~ Drev'nae the Clinquant ♥.:*¨¨*:.♥.:*¨¨*:.♥.:*¨¨*:.♥
