Cree could remember the time in which she was being held by the dragon. But what Cree had done after the dragon's death was still a bit fuzzy. After the dragon had been slain Fáinu had walked over to check on Cree and offer her his help. "Fáinu and still to this day what I did next doesn't make any since to me." Cree could feel Avalon's stare on her. "I knew what had happened, Avalon, that is as far as the dragon being killed and everything. But when Fáinu offered his aid.. it was like something had taken control of me... Whether it was the curse or not I still do not know." Cree looked at her friend. She couldn't believe that she had attacked the only person that had seemed to care about her.
"Instead of letting Fáinu help me I attacked him. If it wasn't for the pain I was in I fear what would have happened. I'm sorry Fáinu, I didn't mean to attack you. Not then and not now." Cree's rage had never been like that before, but she knew deep down inside something had triggered the rage. "The journey back is still a bit fuzzy. All I know is that we traveled for a few days, being careful of the danger that still surrounded us. Yes we did spend some time mourning the death of Killi, but we had to be swift when it came to leaving the dark lands." All Cree knew was that she had fallen asleep in a dark place only to wake up and find herself in Rivendell surrounded by strange elves.. But no Fáinu.
