Back to the Present;
The desert sun bore down mercilessly as Kael and the party trudged through the golden dunes.
As they continue to press forward in the hopes of finding a food/water source, Nyx halts in its footsteps, alerting the rest. "Master, I smell the presence of life, humans and not humans at the same time."
Everyone suddenly stops at the same time, collectively shifting their gaze to the wolf.
"What does that mean, Nyx?" As Leiza asked, Mia replied before the others. "Must be the desert elves."
"Desert Elves?" Shiera and others exchanged glances in wonder.
"Sis, are they friendly to humans?" Kael asked.
Mia answered straight away. "Depends. They are just like humans. Some like other races, while some hate them."
"Nyx, lead us to them," Shiera replied, taking a deep breath in seriousness. "We'll see what to do if a situation arises."
