Chapter 4

On their way towards the elf's and the elven territory Ellanore happily explained the details about the world to Neculai she continued on from the vampires demise. After the great victory over the dreadful race called vampires, the world was at peace for many years.

But even that peace crumbled as ripples created between the races, according to legends the first races that started the great war that lasts to this day were the divine angels the messengers of all the holy goods and the vile demons from the pits of hell that served their dark gods.

Their war had once again engulfed the world and all the other races were forced to choose sides either they would serve the angels and the gods of light or the demons of hell and the dark gods.

The races chose their masters and fought for thousands of years endless wars continued all over the world, eventually, the demons and angels returned to their realms as they have had too many casualties and they did not reproduce like the other races.

With the absence of the divine beings from both sides, the races that served the angels and demons crumbled to pieces they all broke apart without their leaders.

It was now an age that every kingdom, every empire small or great strived to be the greatest they the former allies against the vampire race were now all mortal enemies greed and lust the power grew in their hearts as they wanted to shape the world to their visions.

"Hahahahaha!" after hearing all the things Ellanore said to him about the current state of the world he burst out laughing in his dark cold voice.

"So the angels and the demons caused the ripple between the races and now the unity and trust they once had is broken, this is a blessing it is more than I can ask for" Neculai smiled as he was truly happy about what he learned.

In the past the vampire race was at the top of the food chain and him on the very top, in order to oppose such a force the unity between the races was born as they had a common enemy but now all that is gone, this world is what Neculai wants distrust, treacheries, greed, lust.

"Master, are you happy with what I know?" Ellanore looked at Neculai and asked him.

"hhhh" "Yes my dear child I am very satisfied you brought me great joy" he patted her head with his gigantic hand.

"hehe" Ellanore let out a giggle as she was very happy that she was able to make her master happy, nothing could bring her more joy.

"Now Ellanore how long till we reach the elven lands?" Neculai looked at Ellanore and spoke.

She raised her head and looked him straight in the eyes "It is not long from here master! A couple more hours and we will arrive at the elven town called Ellvedell the main elven army is stationed there, general Zalunis is leading it against the Ravodin kingdom army"

"Hhhh" "Very well, Ellanore when we arrive at the city you will use your former name and title provide us entrance to the city" Neculai spoke.

"Bu..but master! Ellanore is my name! I do not want to use my old name anymore it is not the name master gave me!" Ellanore complained like a little child.

"Hhhhh" "No argument, now let's go" Neculai let out an annoyed sound as he pushed Ellanore forward to lead the way.

"Okay..." Ellanore was little down as she truly hated to use her old name, as it was not blessed upon her by the master.

After few hours of walking they had arrived near the elven city, Neculai would have arrived early if he knew where the city was located as he could move through the shadows but Ellanore couldn't do that yet, and the reason why Neculai couldn't sniff out or sense the elven town was because all of their cities and towns are protected by barriers.

"We arrived, master!" Ellanore spoke cheerfully.

"Indeed we have" Neculai eyed the town with his red eyes, "hhhhh" he turned his gaze towards Ellanore he looked at her pure white hair and red eyes "Ellanore you need to change your hair color and hide your eyes" Neculai spoke.

"But how master?" Ellanore looked at him with a troubled look on her face.

"Close your eyes and focus your mind, picture your hair and eyes changing color to their original one" Neculai instructed Ellanore as he circled around her.

"Hmmm....hmmm!" Ellanore racked her brain hard as she tried to imagine her hair turning to red color and her eyes to chestnut color.

"Master I think this is not going to work" Ellanore spoke with a defeated voice.

"Open your eyes" Neculai spoke as he touched Ellanore's hair.

"It really turned red and my eyes?" she rushed over to a nearby pond and looked at the reflection in the pond, she returned to her original look, red long hair and chestnut eyes she looked a little down.

"Do not worry child, that is just an illusion it will disappear after a few hours you haven't lost anything" Neculai smiled and patted her head.

In response, Ellanore smiled like a child.

"Now then let us proceed into Ellvedell, as the first step to my plans" Neculai pulled down his hood to cover all of his faces.

PS: I noticed I made a mistake in the last chapter when I said it was over 2 centuries, it is actually 2millenniums, not centuries my mistake.
