They do not know what sorrow truly is... Silmeriel thought forlornly as she began to back away into the shadows.

"Well, farewell companions, the Sun does not abide long enough in the sky for me." With that she stepped off quietly into the bushes. When she reached her hill top at last, she sat down amongst the shy niphredil and sighed happily. The wind blew a warm breeze that smelled of healing flowers.
A small figure caught Melarë's eye. A deer, hurt and bleeding, with an ill-placed arrow in its leg. Compassion rose in her heart, and she walked over carefully. The doe turned fearful eyes upon her. Melarë whispered comforting words, and was able to touch her, for the gentle Elves can earn trust more easily than Men. With a swift movement she pulled the arrow out and threw it far away. Some careless child perhaps, had shot the deer and missed his mark, she thought ruefully.
Melarë tore a strip from her dress and cleaned away the dried and fresh blood. Then she took another piece and tied it around the deer's leg. She sat, looking on with a smile, when the doe bounded away out of sight.

As she watched Silmeriel walk away she muttered words under her breath with a cold gleam in her eyes. Sighing she turned to Corwin and nodded to him. "My name is Stella, for some, and you may call me that. what brings you here?"

"What doth brind a wanderer anywhere?" Corwin looked off through the trees. "We have no home. We have no place." He looked back to her. "I am here because this is where my feet have taken me."

She looked at him closely. he was definitly the person she had been tracking. laughing to herself she nodded. "Same here, but i have been following you. Fake hunt, you know. just to keep in shape." She grinned sheepishly. "Maybe ill take my prize now.." she laid a hand on her sword

Corwin raises an eyebrow. His hand moves unconciously to his sword, brushing lightly at the pommel stone set upon the hilt. He narrows his eyes. "Are you serious?"

Smiling she remained silent for a moment. "Have you given me reason to hurt you?

"I have no reason to hurt anyone. Everyone is brothers in mine eye." He relaxed and his hand moved away from his sword.

Silmeriel walked once more through her forest, wishing that this burden could be lifted somehow. But it could not, and she was not sure she could bear it any longer. She stood at the edge of a pool, a deep one, looking at her sad reflection. But all thoughts of sorrow were erased as a club came down on her head, and she fell, unconscious, into the pool. She sank to the bottom immediately.

Stella gasped. in the blink of an eye she had her bow in her hands and an arrow nocked. she spritnted to the place silmeriel fell. she reached in and pulled her out of the pool. "Come on, wake up." she muttered as she laid her on the ground, her eyes still searching for some movement in the bushes near.

Silmeriel felt on the back of her head for a bump, or a bruise, or blood, but felt nothing. She KNEW she'd felt a club...what had happened? A black scrap of fabric caught her eye. She knew what it was immediately. "Cuma..." she breathed.

She jumped up imediatly. raising her bow to where Silmeriel was looking she tightened the string, waiting.

"Put down your bow, friend." Silmeriel said tensely. "He is not here anymore. He left as soon as I fell. His name is Cuma, and I know him all too well."

"Who is this Coma you speak of?" Corwin asked. "And why does he foul the woods of Doriath with violence?"

"Bloody fast litte-" she broke off not wanting to add to the evil with curses. sighing she lowered her bow and helped Silmeriel stand. With one glowing-silver finger she healed the back of her head for her.
