Nefros
He ran for hours, but it seemed like days. Every minute or so he would catch up to a young spider ling and show no mercy, slicing them as though they where a mere weed growing in the way of an Elvin trail. But Nefros’s enraged eyes where focused only on the Queen Spider carrying his sister.
Nefros thought a couple times about how angry Orodan will be at him for running off so foolishly or for blurting out the spiders plot, but most of his thoughts where how his life would be meaningless if his sister was killed, and how finally he understood Orodan’s Melancholy.
Finally the Spiders stopped; four were left, the Queen and three spider lings, and they could not see Nefros, he realized they where about to get rid of the cocoon they carried, so he had to do something fast to save his sisters life, or even her body.
“I wish I could just play a song and make things better, like always” Nefros thought.
“My Flute!” He said in a low excited whisper.
Nefros had been practicing quite some time to move the sound of his flute through out the wood, to make it sound as though the sound was coming from multiple places. But he never though it would be much use.
He began to move the sound of a single note in a circle around the spiders, leaving an open spot opposite of him. Besides the fact that the spiders hated the sound of Nefros’s flute, the spiders began to jitter franticly as if they where surrounded slowly backing towards the spot Nefros left open.
“CHARGE!!!!”
Nefros shouted making as much noise possible; almost as if he was confident he had an entire army of Elves behind him.
The Spiders ran fast enough, that if he wasn’t in so much grief, Nefros would had given a laugh all of Eryn Lasgalen would hear.
Nefros cut his sister loose, lifted her into his arms and ran as fast as he could, looking closely to find a sign of life.
