Twisted Roots (Complete Edition)

Act VI Scene II

-[ower approach - Enter High Elf Alenia and six of the remaining Duhsh Soldiers stand exhausted. They were able to dispel the band of orcs at the cost of four of their men]

Duhsh Soldier #1: Manke tanya tuula?

{Where did that come from?}

High Elf Alenia: Ninus.

Duhsh Soldier #2: Sut?!

{How?!}

High Elf Alenia: Return to the Duhsh by my orders. Bring back our dead and inform their families.

Duhsh Soldier #2: You shouldn't confront him alone! we can go back, regroup and strike sure against him

High Elf Alenia: Our aggression cannot be what brings war back amongst our race, we've all suffered enough. The group we travel in, small as it may be, is too large not to draw attention to ourselves. Return. I will be alright.

Duhsh Soldier #1: Vanya sulie arwenamin.

{Fair winds my lady}

[The Duhsh Soldiers obediently follow Alenia's command. They leave on horseback]

High Elf Alenia: [Aside] Surely the orcs were not sent by Ninus. His pride and faith in the race of elves would not leave him down such a corrupt path. He seeks the reins of history back in the hands of our people. Blood magic, not you too Ninus.

[Exit Alenia]
