Once more they were all swarmed by fairies and various other fey wild kin wondering who Caliaphy and the Bronze Man brought with them this time.

"Good Lord, there are certainly a lot of fairies here," Irzen quipped as he looked around the tree.

Alyson stifled a giggle as best as she could without bursting into laughter to Lord Irzen's reaction.

There was the sound of hard wood tapping on the massive limb where the party stood and all at once the fairies parted to allow the Elder through.

"Mae govannen."

"Vedui'! saesa forgive lye bragol entula. Can lle help lye?" Willow stepped forward and bowed to the Elder.

Lazheros usually came here in his true form as he bowed to the Elder out of respect, "We seek passage to Northaven."

"Out of curiosity, Caliaphy, where is your home if not here?" Serna whispered to her friend.

"My home originated from Earth but since humans are and can be very paranoid and destructive my home is now between the worlds. I can't say anymore than that, sorry." The Kurori winked.

"You're from Earth?" Serna was completely blown away by that answer, "WOW! It seems like everyone I meet these days is from Earth. I never expected you to be from there too."

"My world was from Earth. I was born between the worlds, silly. Actually more closer to the Realm, the old world is scary, very scary." Caliaphy said with added affect.

The Elder tapped his staff again and another younger elven druid came forward. This younger druid was still older than everyone in the party save for Lazheros and Irzen as he motioned the party to follow him to the left of where the party appeared.

Raising his arms and speaking in the druid tongue, a slightly smaller tree growing up from the colossal branch contorted and parted to form an archway. In the middle of the trunk itself a portal appeared showing the country side of Northhaven not yet touched by the invaders.

The Elder stepped forward and gestured to the party to pass through, "Quel fara. Melloneamin."

"Diola lle, amin heru," The prince replied before he stepped through the portal.

"I'm surprised at how easy all of this is," The Swordsman quipped to no one in particular, "In the past, we had to quest for a portal just to get to another land. It's pretty nice to have one so readily available for a change."

"Yeah, its really nice not to have trudge through some forsaken land, or a dungeon isn't it. Anyway, I get the feeling this is a one way trip." The elementalist said as she followed the ranger through the portal.
