Aeluuin

(Some World Building, Minor Character Development)

   The Brimming Cold Had Foretold Their Arrival; Thousands Of Lanterns Took To The Cavern Walls, Guiding Them Home Though The Twisted System As Our Conservator Shifted to Repose. A Redolence Of Smoke And Iron Submerged The Caverns And Mixed With The Usual Salty Aroma That Upholded Itself Throughout, Rhythms Started To Shift Into Digression. Welcoming Shrieks Filled The Hallowed Space Where Silence Had Clutched, Drumming Vibrated Throughout As If The Greeting Would Make Up For The Lack Of substitutional Grief Among Its People. Fallen Faced Lads Clutch To Those They Left Behind And Begged For A New Beginning, Bearing Scars That Dare Not Show Themselves Yet; Whos Marks Everyone Fears. The Seemingly Endless War Whithin These Dark Rocky Tunnels Had Come To An End For Now, The Hackneyed Heir Had Overtaken His Downtrodden Father In A Final Fight For The Major Cavern Systems. Life Would Continue As It Should, But For Those Who Ponder, At What Cost?

   Almost As If Answering This Question; Disturbance Shook The Dismal Shadows As A Blue Flamed Lantern Fell From The Cavern Wall, Clumsy Flames Burst Forward And Briskly Overtook A Minor Tunnel System. Celebration Quickly Took To A Morbid Realization As Vaiki's Scattered About, Breaking Away And Fending Only For Themselves. 

   Watching Those Bellow, A Certain Blue Eyed Vaiki Had Stopped To Amuse Themselves On The Actions Of The Ones Who Had Now Seemingly Lost Everything. Satisfaction Lit Up Their Features, This Would Be A Most Beautiful Distraction. For Something Has To Be Lost, In Order For Something To Be Gained. Aeluuin Was A Messenger, Despite Being Close With The Old Lord Of The Caverns. Often Announced Unlucky, Aeluuin Was Given Every Excuse In The Book To Be Sent Away, In Order To Prevent Any Misfortune Upon Their Apparent Sanctuary. The Caverns Were Home To Many Vaiki Alike, Bonded By The Same Ideals Of A Promised Future. Though Aeluuin Was Honestly Happy To Get Away From The Philosophical Nature Of His Straightforward Home, Away From All The Blank Faces And Disappointed Stares. Thus Within The Madness Of The Return And Fire, Aeluuin Slipped Away Into The Unfolding Night. He Had Much To Do If He Ever Wanted To See The Outside...
