The Nixie blinks at the magic bubble that surrounds the elf, "What's that?!" She squeals and pouts for not being able to penetrate it.
Aeri growls while watching the other elf look through her drawings, something so personal to any artist. "..."
Only the first 6 pages are filled in the sketchbook. All 6 have different monsters on them, one of them being the Nixie, but that page is now missing due to it being burned allowing the nixie to be summoned. All of the drawings are detailed and mildly accurate. It looks like she's been drawing for quite some time but still has plenty of room for improvement. At the back of the sketchbook lies a letter addressed to Aeri by her parents...

-Pulls out the letter and looks at it, then without reading it she places it back into the sketchbook-
"This is a Magical item young one...Remember the Orcs are intelligent creatures...Magic Draws them as much as any other creature especially magic of great power."

"Hmph...They wouldn't know what to do with it anyway... Even if those two were intelligent enough to figure out what my book holds and what its used for, they wouldn't be ablet to use it... Only those gifted with my power would find some use for it..." Aeri looks away indignantly. She would of crossed her arms and grabbed her belongings back in a blink of an eye if she wasn't frozen in place...
The Nixie sits on Aeri's shoulder. shrugging sadly at not being able to help her.
"Can you let me go now... I'm not in a hurry but I didn't come here just to outrun Orcs. And I don't want them to be chasing me again..." Still upset but now rather annoyed and getting a little cramped by being still for more than 10 minutes...

"you've been able to move for awhile now..."

She moves her body around quickly and glares at the elf once again, "Right...Hmph." Aeri picks up her belongings somewhat rudely for her drawings being 'violated', "Thanks for the inspection, ...-- I don't recall you giving me a name..." She turns to the elf again to see if she'll give her her name.

Her eyes widen and she yells, "How did you know my name--..." She stops and looks at her sketch pad, ("Obvious...") then looks back at the Paladin, "Valanathe... No wonder you stunned me. Your aura was starting to get to me..." She shivers in a tasteless joking way. She bows slightly at Valanathe, "My name, as you now know because of my sketchbook..., is Aeri Silivrenniel Feathermoon Roshier."
She sighs to herself and rolls her eyes while muttering to herself, "What now... Am I going to be punished for taking back what is mine...??"

She twitches in surprise, "Eeee... Elven ears..." Aeri raises her eyebrow at Valanathe, "Abnormal? Like what exactly??"

"Full elven young one..."
-She leans against a tree-
"What are you doing out here Aerie? There isn't much that would draw your kind out here nor would it draw the orcs...Think about it something is drawing people here."

Aeri becomes quiet once again when Valanathe says 'your kind'... "...I have a reason for coming here... 'My kind' like 'your kind' are as attracted to the woods where Sehanine and Correllon once stood and created the forest... I came here because I come from a Moon Elf and human who have passed down the legend of this forest to me. And I seek refuge here. Any of our kind can walk through our ancestor's sacred grounds..." Aeri seems offended but more disappointed in hearing once again that she is a completely different species from Elves and Humans.

-She laughs as the Other elf is obviously offended-
"you mistake my speech young Moon Elf...I am Descended from those known as High Elves...One in the same with the blood elves with one very distinct difference."
-She points at her eyes which glow a subtle blue-
"I see what you're saying but there is more to it than that...There have been a Strange amount of disappearances here as of late...something is using the lore behind this place of Refuge to take Prisoners or to set up traps...I've found Three dead Moon Elves this morning..."

Aeri looks closely at Valanathe's eyes, "You're not mana-crazed like they are...?? I see more Blood Elves than High Elves. I thought High Elves were nearly extinct..."
She looks down at her feet for a second but looks back up at Valanathe with a quizzical look on her face, "...Dead Moon Elves...? Here...?? How is that possible??! The only thing that would even remotely react to anyone are the creatures here! And they're peaceful compared to the outside monsters that roam the lands!!" Aeri's ears bend slightly, "Unless it wasn't a creature but a humanoid..."

"Even the Goddesses' Blessings can be Dispelled...Nothing is safe in these lands anymore."
-She reaches to a sheath on her Side and pulls a dagger ever slightly out and stares at it for a moment...her face which is usually calm and composed looks saddened for a few seconds before she forcefully slams the dagger into it's sheath and looks up again her regaining her Composure -
"But that is what I'm here for to assure protection to all those that I can."

"So you're guarding this forest and trying to figure out what has been happening to Elves? Don't you have anyone else that could help you??" Aeri taps her foot and crosses her arms, " One Paladin alone isn't able to solve a mystery. Sure, you can smite and all that nice stuff but you could be dealing with something different. Why don't you call your companions or other Elves to help you?"
She mutters to herself in a joking manner in Elven, "Caen, shia byr kaer syri sai Os sai caer o? Ai't mesi si'p ialaesal o cylol saes or..." (Heh, why not get those two Orcs to help you? I'm sure they'd understand you knocking them out...") "Eehh... " She looks over at the Orcs and shudders...
