   As Queen Aria sat beside the now healed grand oak tree she sensed a new air about the forrest where she was hiding. It was diffeent from before when everything was dead and frozen in time, but this time she sensed that she was not alone. Quickly she stood up and glanced around, but noone was to be found. Then she heard a snap behind her and there standing was a wolf snarling. As Aria stared and his foamy jaws she had an urge to run away, but she knew that as the forgotten queen of Alockchay, the boarders from Humanity to Faerie, she was to stand strong and not fear this wild beast.

   "My queen, forgive the intrusion, but we must go quickly. Your brother has heard word of your arival and has sent me to dispose of you."
"But why art thou directing me away, if thou are sent to devour me."
"Your majesty, I am your loyal subject, Guardian of The Wolves."
"What shall I call thee?"
"Just the guardian for I shall protect you from those who intend to harm you,"
"Thank you guardian, for your kindness and take word to Adrius and tell him 'whats done is done''.

    The wolf nodded and went on his way. The queen had given him red berries to give the fect of blood and had healed the old wolf of the heart ache he had suffered from the Adrius's punishment. The queen turned around to deside where she would go, when the wolf turned around to look at her with a tear down his cheek.

    I know him from some where, but where. Aria sighed as she thought of all the people she healed and blessed that had suffered for her, and she began to weep when she realized her brother was doing this to people who had followed her. This is no time to be sorrowful, I must save my people.

                               BACK AT THE CASTLE

    "Master, I bring word to you. It is as we suspected the queen is back in our kingdom." and old servant told Adrius.
"How many time must I tell you that I am the only ruler of Alockchay? She is not queen anymore!" Adrius hissed to his servant.
"Forgive me your majesty, I have been mistaken again."
"Fool." the ruler said under his breath.

    "Syer," breathed the wolf "what's done is done."
"Good good. You may go dog." To that the wolf howled as to say I'm do dog you idiot.

    "Damius, set up my army. I think there is going to be an attack."
"Your majesty?"
"I have a feeling that this isnt over yet. There is good magic being played in the game and I intend on discovereing who has gone to the old ways."

   "Oriya, how long has it been since you've had your sight"
"My queen, its been eighty-five years, five years after the rebellion."
"I wish i could have done more but-"
"But nothing" she cut her off "You have restored my true age and you have given me back my sight, what more could I need."
"Oriya, if it wasn't for your guidence, I would have never understood the changes of Alockchay and the true nature of my brother. Please let me do more for you."
"In time, milady in time." was all she could say.

    Oriya and Aria stayed in a small dark cave in the forrest. The thought had been brought up about staying in her cottage, but they would rather not have Oriya put in anymore danger than she already was from her loyalty to the queen. Inside the cave, Aria and Oriya combined the good magic to bring light and warmth. Aria stould above a whole that opened up to hide them if ever a guard would find the women.

    Outside the cave was a small fire, the color of Aria's hair. Oriya on the other hand was much more different than the ellegant queen. A peasant girl no doubt. She had long honey brown hair like the sap of a great maple tree. She wore a white pessents top with a dark brown skirt that fell to her ankles. She had a beautiful face that shown like the moon. Together, Aria and Oriya looked almost like sisters.
"My queen, thankyou forgiving me back what I've lost."
"I've told you, it was nothing to give you back your age and sight. And Oriya you may call me by my name."
"Thankyou Aria, but I must confess it wasn't my looks that I missed most, but my magic."
"Oh yes I see."
"The more of the good magic you restore unto your followers, the less Adrius can you the bad."
"Right, evil can not take the place of good, when good is restored to rid the evil."
"Yes, when the good magic is brought back to Alockchay. He can't refuse it. It will consume him."
"Thy art a ver smart girl, Oriya."
"Aria, since I am addressing you as a friend and nt a servant, I must warn you. Your manner of talking, as being elegant as the old days, is banned from this new order. If you want to stay desguised you must change your speech as well as you apearance."
"Thankyou Oriya, I pribably would not have caught onto that until it caught up with me."
They laughed as the enjoyed the food they had prepared by the fire. The queen had restored the forrest back to its beautiful state, and once again, there was hope for Alockchay
