"HEY GUYS!" Helens's voice yelled out to us in the distance slowly walking towards us .
"You know we need a cool name for our group! . . . " I said to Jay him with a smile waving back at Helen .
"Hmmmm yeah a cool name would be awesome" He replied .
"Hmmmm . . . . . " I said thinking of possible names .
"Nothings coming to mind . " Jay said after a short pause .
"Yeah me too . " I said unable to come up with anything awesome sounding .
"Yeah probably let it all come naturally . " He said .
"Hey guys!" Helen greeted us .
"Hey!" We both replied .
"Had a good time? . . " I asked .
"Yeah it was fun!" Helen replied .
"Ohh what did you do? . . " Jay asked .
"Ohhh used some Druidic spells to carve out some new caverns support by helping accelerate plant growth . " She explained .
"Woahhhh . . . . " Jay said looking amazed .
"Yeah . . . . it took a chunk out of me and a few other students but we got a good amount done . " She said with a smile .
"Ohh have some of this to eat then! . . . . . " Jay said unwrapping some Jerky .
Helens face lit up with a big smile of glee, "OH MY GOD! is that Tripola World famous honey glazed jerky?!" She asked excitedly accepting it .
"It's world famous? . . " I asked .
"Yup! . . . . it's very rare and extremely expensive to get outside Tripola! I've only eaten it once!" She said with a smile slowly eating it savouring every moment . "Thanks Jay!!!!" she said with a giant smile .
"No probs . . . . We have loads . . . . . Daisy's Aunt made them for us . " He said casually .
"SHUT UP!!!!" She screamed in disbelief .
"Yeah!!!" He replied equally as happy .
"By the way have you seen Daisy or Helen? . . " I asked .
"Hmmmmm . . . . If I remember correctly . . . . . Daisy went to the healers hut and Grace went to the stock house . . . . " Helen replied . . . "By the way did you see the Deputy Head mistress?!!! she's using Rune Magic!" She informed us .
"Yeah we saw it earlier! I explained to Emilia what Old Magic was . " Jay responded .
"Yup! It's so fascinating!! Even though it's not very useful in combat . . . . but it's the best for defense . " Helen explained .
"Is that so? . . . . " I asked .
"Yup . . . . Atlantis is well shielded because of her Rune magic . . . . as well as almost all Elven societies are defended with runes inscribed on gems and stones which are a deviation of Rune Magic but less potent!" Helen informed us .
"Umm not really . . . we have Runes . . . . that were places in the outskirts of cities . . . . I think the knowledge of making these runes were lost a long time ago . . . . " She replied .
"By the way what did you both get up to? . . . " Helen asked .
"I was just helping mend things . . . . and Emilia went to help collect some seaweed and apparently met a Sea Dragon . " Jay answered her .
"Really? . . . . Dragons are believed to be extinct and . . . . Sea Dragons roam the sea . . . " She replied looking a little confused .
"It's true ask S'ffa . " I said to them .
"It is true! The Ancient One is believed to be a Sea Dragon . " She said to them .
"Hmmm . . . . . maybe it could be another sea creature . . . " Helen pondered .
"Other sea monsters??" I asked .
"Yah Giant Squids, Sharks, Jellyfish, Chuuls, Sirens there's loads . . . . what did it look like? . . " She asked .
"Ummm it was dark so I didn't get a good look . . but it had a long snout, with scales like a lizard and it's head alone was as big pool . . . Ohh Ohh it had yellow eyes with a black slit for its pupil" I described it to her .
"Hmmm . . . . . That defiantly sounds like a Dragon . . . . but it would be extremely weird for it to dwell here . . . " She pondered .
"I tried to use Detect magic . . . but I didn't sense or see anything . . . " Jay added .
"By the way . . . . it called me Daughter of Solomon . . . . . Do you know who Solomon was? I remember you mentioned him in passing earlier . . . " I asked .
"Ohhh King Solomon? . . " She asked looking surprised .
"Yeah . . . I guess . . . " I answered her .
"Ohhh so there has been stories of this man who went by the name King Solomon . . . . . Extremely powerful sorcerer . . . Who used Atlantis traversing the near infinite planes of existence learning exploring and documenting . " She said .
"As in the Atlantis we are in? . . . " Jay asked .
"Yup . . . . . It used to be a Planar Traversing Fortress somehow . . . . " Helen explained .
"But how? . . . . " Jay asked .
"We don't know ourselves . . . . . All I know is there has been ancient texts speaking of a King Solomon arriving in our home plane with a floating fortress seeking knowledge and discovering the universe . " she said .
"Are you sure it's the same Castle? . . . . " I asked .
"Hmm descriptions kinda match it Floating Fortress . . . . . with large tall spires with a World Tree in the centre . " She described .
"Hmmm it does remotely sound like Atlantis . . . " Jay replied .
"What else do you know? . . " I asked Helen .
"Hmmmmm . . . that's all I know sadly . " she replied .
"If he met the Elves before they even migrated here . . . . . His visit must have even predated the calamity . . . . . " Jay said .
"I Guess so… . " She replied to Jay .
"Why did the Elves leave your home plane???" I asked .
"My ancestors left Ifellume because outside the city the fey is a very chaotic and wild place . " Helen replied .
"Wait Ifellume is real? . . " Jay asked leaning forward as if he must have misheard .
"What's Ifellume?" I asked extremely confused .
"It's the legendary first Elven city where all Elves came from . . . " Jay replied .
"Yup it's certainly real . . . . me and Grace haven't visited there ourselves but our parents have . My staff was made there and the Gem on top was blessed by a number of Elven Deities . " Helen answered him with a smile .
"How about Graces bow? . . " I asked .
"Most certainly her Bow is crafted with special Fey wood crafted by an Master fletcher . " Helen answered .
"Wow . . . do you think we would ever be able to see it? . . " I asked .
"I highly doubt it . . . . . " Jay answered me .
"Why not?" I asked .
"Because only Elves are allowed to enter Ifellume . " Helen Replied .
"Why are only Elves allowed in? . . " I asked .
"Because almost all Elves aside from a few believe that lesser races shouldn't taint the grounds . . " She replied .
"Why are we lesser races? . . . " I asked .
"It's something silly . . . . . But because unlike other races who's Deity made them in the image of themselves, we were born directly from the body of Yion bestowing up with longevity and innate ability to use magic . " She answered me . . . . "but but me and Grace don't believe in that way of thinking!" She instantaneous added .
"It's okay . . I didn't think you was anyways . . . . but how long do you live then? . . " I asked .
"Around 300-400 years . " She answered .
Taken aback from her answer "300-400 years?!" I replied in shock unable to even comprehend what life would be like to live that long .
"Yeah . . . . " She said as she began to frown saddened .
"Why the long face? . . . . if I would be spending so much time exploring and learning every little thing . " Jay replied with a smile .
"It's because . . . . You, Emilia and Daisy was the first ever Non-Elven friends I've made . . . . and just the thought of us out living you . . And even the slightest chance of forgetting you guys . . . makes me feel so sad . . . " She answered us .
" . . . Don't be so sad . . . . the only way we can truly cherish something is by realizing it wouldn't last forever . . . " I said trying to cheer her up .
"Yup . . . . she's right . . . . if we all lived forever . . . . we wouldn't cherish each and every moment . . . " Jay agreed .
"I know . . . . " She replied still looking down to the ground her voice cracking slightly .
"Let's make a pact!" Jay suggested with a smile .
"Sure!" I replied with excitement .
"Once everyone get back! Let's forge a pact to stay friends forever no matter what happens and to never waste a minute of our precious time . " He suggested .
"Yup lets . " I agreed .
"Okay . . . . " Helen croaked still facing the ground .
