Aelwen paced around her study, which was big to suit her large form. Her bronze, orange, and red feathers reflected off the sun that shone through the high windows, and her long deadly claws clicked on the tile as she paced from her four long legs. Her body build was of that of a lion and four wings like a phoenix. Her face resembled something of a dog, but covered in feathers and a kind knowing look never betrayed any other emotion. Her long peacock tail trailed behind her. She shamed any human or creature alive by her beauty.
Aelwen was probably the deadliest creature other than the Mistress right now, but she stayed away, hidden in Heovin, watching, waiting, predicting, and planning. Aelwen, in fact, was the most peaceful, intelligent, ancient creature to walk on the planet Tayarius. She hadn't fought a bloody battle sense 476 years ago. And she didn't plan on breaking this streak.
At this moment, she waited on her dear friend and cousin, Lafayette, to return her call. She had been waiting, actually, 3 weeks for the Sphynx to reply. These creatures were known to take their merry time... But Aelwen was patient. Very patient. She could wait years if needed.
A bell rang. Aelwen looked up, thinking it was finally Lafayette. "Who is it?" Her melodic voice rang through the air.
"This would be Hadrian Delano, your Majesty." A deep sing-song voice spoke from thin air. "Is this a bad time?"
"No, not at all, your Highness." Aelwen walked over to an enormous lounge chair made for her and draped her self over it. "And what is it that you want?"
One of her high windows before her flickered and the magnified version of Hadrian Delano appeared like he was on a television. He was, in fact, on an overly large projector-like television. He had pitch black hair, a trimmed black beard, glistening red eyes, and sharp features that made him the older version of his son, whom he was reporting about. A thick, elaborate, silver circlet went around his head and glinted in the light of the room beyond him.
"As thought, they fell for his bait: letting himself be captured by Elite Specials... In which I regret he was not unharmed. Other than that, there was something interesting about the one of the Specials who captured him."
"And what was this interesting something?"
"This one Special was the same girl my son Blessed some years ago for her Blessing night... The same human that was Blessed by Grosvenor, Elon Gareth, Vevey Newlyn, and Demi."
Aelwen's sharp eyes became even sharper. "Are you sure?"
"Positive, your Majesty."
"Dragon, Elf, Rusalki, and Sprite..." She said more to herself and looked away to gaze around her study...
"Your Majesty? What is it?"
"I think we've found our Prophecy."
