When not working, she got a very nice stone house not too far from the Guild so the commute is not bad. She spends time with the girls between their jobs and hers.

Da'Rune Finally learned to let Hel lead and is trying hard to curb her enthusiasm (or stupidity depending on whom you ask).

She had fun, finally had sex with her lovers, had a Life. Everything seemed to go well for several years.

(She killed the evil Baron and his henchmen and freed all his prisoners. The King, hearing about it offered her the Barony, as one of those prisoners was his wife. Held to keep him in check. Her rescue was all that was important to him. Cin'aed just handed the Barony over to the Guild and went back to work.)

Then they came. In force. Thousands of them. Dragons, with soldiers, being led by the Vampire Gods who were loyal to Anwen Cin'aed Goddess Queen of the Dragons. The same Anwen who was defeated and unknown to Cin'aed, banished to another world. A world with only 1 way back. The Same Magic Mirror that Cin'aed took as a prize then all but forgot about in her new life.

The Dragons goals are simple. Kill Cin'aed and all she holds dear and retrieve the Mirror so they can rescue their Queen.

Unfortunately for the Dragons, the Guilds were not so easy to defeat. The Guild Master, founder of the First and all subsequent adventurers guilds had been planning, building up ways to kill these beings and their nearly unstoppable Masters. When the Dragons attacked it was a surprise, but while a few hundred civilians died in the opening gambit, several hundred Dragons also died, explosively. The Guilds became active, the war was on and this time the humanoids intended to push the dragons and vampires to the ends of the earth.

Now the Guild had some unexpected allies to. The Immortals lead by Kitten. She saw what was happening and came to offer her services to Guilds in defense of the Lands. She had spies loyal to her in the ranks of the enemies. She also brought to them the secrets to destroying the Vampires, who had fallen to the Darkness. Those all had a single group flaw - Fire. But it had to be really hot fire. Furnace level hot.

Here Cin'aed's other worldly knowledge came in to play. She taught them how to make Phosphorus weapons, flame throwers, and the high metals that protected the soldiers from their own weapons. She gave the guilds designs for weapons from her worlds Middle Ages. Technology over a thousand years more advanced than anywhere else in that world. She Taught dozens of Armorers and Weapons smiths, all loyal to the guild, the secrets of Titanium and stainless steel and Damascus Weapons.

That first day, that first attack, Cin'aed had been doing one of her concerts. The amphitheater it was at was the first attacked. And the lead dragons, breathing lightning in to the crowd, did not survive the wrath of Cin'aed FlameSinger, Master Armorer and Beloved of the Gods of Light. Her powers had grown over the years and while she could not save those who died in the first strike, she could and did avenge them. Her powers tore the dragons apart, limbs, heads, some just exploded from force strikes that went down their throats and expanded outward faster than the dragons natural defenses could handle. It rained dragon blood that day and taught the dragons an important lesson. Going head on with this mortal was suicide.
