Chapter 1 – The Plan
Five years ago...
Fion Raenvree stormed down the hallway of his family’s compound on the outskirts of the shadow elf city of Zylsandoral, located miles beneath the surface of Kartos. He entered his personal chambers, located on the top floor, and swept through the room collecting his armor and weapons. He could hear battle coming from the parapets, and he strapped his twin swords to his hips as he rushed to his balcony enter the fray.
Looking from his balcony to the outside wall of the compound, he could see the hated surface elves storming the towers adjacent to the gate, their heads poking up between the crenellations long enough to launch flashing arrows at his guards. With a growl, he reached into his innate abilities and stepped into the shadows of his balcony, appearing along the wall with his guards. His arrival surprised the surface elf who was firing an arrow at one of the guards, and the shot went wide.
That will be your last mistake.
In a fluid movement, Fion drew both of his swords, the blades immediately bursting to life with blue flames. He dodged left as the other elf attempted to slide behind the crenellation again, then stabbed straight out with the flaming blade, burying it in the face of the attacker of his home.
He rolled to his right as the elves on the ground targeted him, several arrows missing him by a hair as he used the wall to cover his movements to the next attacker. Dispatching this one as quickly as the last, the flame of his blade seemed to intensify with each attack, as if hungering for more. He continued down the wall, shadow stepping between crenellations to use as cover from the nasty arrows from below that continued to slam into the ebony stone of the wall. With each movement, another attacker fell from their perch on the wall, some screaming in their last breaths, some decapitated, but all falling prey to the skilled shadow elf noble.
Just as it appeared Fion would single-handedly defend the wall, an arrow from below streaking silver in the gloom found its mark, burying itself in the side of his throat. As he slowed from the impact, a second arrow found its way into a crease in his magnificent armor, lodging itself in his right shoulder and causing him to drop his blade over the wall as he lurched for cover.
Laying behind the wall, he screamed as loud as he could through the bubbling blood in his throat for the defenders to press the attack, pushing the hated surface elves back.
He took a moment to steady himself as he saw his guards rushing to the wall, sending black arrows raining down on the attackers, then ripped the arrow from the side of his throat. He swooned immediately, the pain wracking his body and causing it to spasm uncontrollably as he fought to remain conscious. The shadows emitted by his skin intensified, blurring the outline of his
