Lolindir Fefalas

Lolindir then heard a voice in a particular accent speak to him. "Master Elf.......don't you ever get tired of hearing that? Though you know they mean no offense by it, but doesn't that just make it worse?" a figure appeared leaning on a pillar he was just now at. He was tall, rather tall. Standing over 7 feet tall, but very slender. He was adorned with a blood red cape and hood and a very odd mouth less mask. Glowing orange-yellow shone through the peepholes of the mask. It rose from the pillar and approached him, hands behind his back, his walk more of a stroll.

“Perhaps so” Lolindir replied. Lolindir had never seen this man before. He was quite strange and intimidating. Lolindir wondered where this man came from and whether or not he had been watching him for some time.

The mysterious man continued, "It means that they don't see you as a fellow Mage or even his own being. You’re just an Elf. That’s all they see you as, so they address you as such. Not Master Lolindir. Not Master Fefalas the Wise and Respected. No. Master Elf. Speaking of respected, how can you be? They only see Ears, not your lifetime of achievement. They might as well be calling you Master Knifears, I see no difference." The mysterious man then paused and stared at the Elf for a time. "Though, I'm wasting my time, aren't I? You care little for the thoughts and motives of the every day's about you. No, you look more towards........The Morning Star? Am I wrong?"

Lolindir’s eyes widened as he was shocked that this strange man knew of Vala, the morning star. Had he met Vala before? How much did this stranger know? Lolindir focused his gaze on the man and replied, “Who are you? How do you know of the Morning Star?” Lolindir replied in a serious tone.

Lolindir could sense that he and the stranger were not alone. In fact it seemed that the sorceress had been following them. Her gasp made Lolindir turn his head slightly to acknowledge her presence. However she rushed off before she could be addressed. He quickly turned to look at the crimson stranger again. “What business have you with Vala the Morning Star? What business do you have with me?”
