The First Lesson

 

The soft touch of the grass beneath Tedyn began as he fell back onto the ground, all around him, humming and whispers vibrated. The trees only being able to be seen by their glow through the thick fog that seemed to envelop the entire forest. He started to shift as he felt himself fall back, the humming slowly awakening him and the whispers calling out to him. Soon enough he came to his feet to view a world like no other, the trees, the ground, the everything seemed as if it vibrated on another plane, through a different world.

 

In a few moments the thick enveloping mists parted to reveal a small pathway shrouded by mystical and alien shrubbery. The whispers began to grow louder, calling out to him to follow the pathway; so he did just that. His feet almost dragged him towards the path, wafting through the heavy almost glowing smog that enveloped the Ker. "Gijaak!" He called out, as if to look for some guidance through this experience, however apart from the whispers the forest was silent.

 

Soon enough as Tedyn continued down the path he found himself in a large clearing, the thick fog now dying down to become more of a thin cloud skating along the floor. His ears darted aswell as his eyes all around, trying to pick up the faintest of sounds, or the faintest of movements.

 

 

All in due time the Ker set his eyes on a bush, holding up majestic pink flowers on sturdy branches. The whispers almost told him to walk towards the flowers. He began to step closer to the bush, all before laying his hands on one of the petals. Suddenly a slight tremor sounded throughout the entire woods, the small pebbles at Tedyn's feet shaking, as well as the earth. However most noticeably was the bush the flowers had grown from; a large majestic creature almost resembling a rhino had stood up, the flowers growing from his nose. The shock of the creature making the Elf stumble backwards.

 

 

Tedyn rose to his feet as the creature seemed to peer into him with red eyes, akin to the look of rubies. "You are not from here." The creature called out, yet his mouth did not seem to move. "No... I am from the Dominion."  The innocent Ker replied, his ears twitching as the creature spoke. The creature and the Ker talked for a brief time, the woods still humming and whispers floating into Tedyn's ears. The creature took a few steps forward to get a closer look at the Ker, his ruby eyes almost peering at the elf' soul. "I am Guurog, what is your name?" It questioned. "Tedyn, Tedyn Isilioleth." He replied.

 

The large creature huffed it's nose before it spoke once more, "You will take one of my flowers and build a shrine in my name, and you shall plant the flower in the middle of the shrine." Tedyn gave the creature a brief nod before taking a few steps forward and tugging at a flower growing from the creature's nose. "It would be an honor." Tedyn states, his gaze now becoming heavy and his body becoming weak as he'd fall to the floor, the comforting grass feeling now not present. He'd awake in the cave where he had once began, the sloshing of water bringing him back to consciousness.

 

Soon after Tedyn gathered the materials required and headed towards a forest, similar to the one he had met Guurog in. He began to construct a shrine in the spirit's name and planted the flower in the middle as requested. Suddenly the flower began to turn to stone and the pink petals crystallizing in place.
