[Solo] The Nosdyn Chronology Chapter 7.

[Nosdyn]

That night...

Tharak, as he'd learned entirely on his own the arts of relicy and arcane matters...in a side cavern he made himself a small lab. Following the teachings of his father, he began constructing his own weapon. Well into the work, he'd noticed a presence in the room with him and paused what he was doing. He was not afraid of N'Jal's servants...his father had sided with them. Tharak spoke to the one who was in the chamber with him. "Do not be afraid." Tharak said to the undead woman.

The servant of N'Jal stepped out of the shadows and walked towards Tharak's table. There was an eager curiosity there of the boy, an understanding. "Relicry." She bit her lower lip shyly, the girl said softly, clearly a magi herself.

Tharak raised his eyebrow. "You...you understand us?" He asked of her. And somehow, right then...he understood why Nosdyn had sided with N'Jal. N'Jal and her followers would never judge him and his kind...ever. Tharak stood up and grabbed a chair for her. "I can teach you...as I have learned." He said to her calmly.

The girl sat down next to Tharak. "Your eyes...have a fierce glow." She said to the boy.

For the first time, since Tharak's own exile...he had found a companion who would understand him and his desire to learn. His desire to study deeply the arcane arts. "What is your name?" Tharak son of Nosdyn asked of her.

"Lilly." She said calmly and nodded.

And that's how it began...as one of N'Jal's own children befriended Nosdyn's son. They talked for hours into the night...teaching each other many things...
