Far away in a green lush forest that was filled with vigour and energy, soothing atmosphere and tranquillity, suddenly a boar dashed out of the thicket and rushed away frantically — falling on the ground and smashing shrubs all about, frightening the birds and scaring the dragonflies as they were feeding the newborns and dancing in the air. The boar stood and again sprinted in the same direction without looking back, as the blood dripped from the gash it had gotten after collapsing miserably.

However, before it could run over five metres an arrow wooshed out of the trees and dug into its neck. The boar gave a heart-wrenching screech and smashed into the tree in front of it, twisting and twitching briefly and then it was silent once more. 

The birds looked at each other confusedly and again went into their nests to feed their chirping fledglings. The dragonflies that had been frightened due to the noise again started to dance, joining each other and flipping in the air with new enthusiasm.

After a moment a sound came from the front thickets and two figures walked out of them. A girl with pointy ears and blue hair and a green dress walked towards the boar. She looked around twenty years old and had a beautiful face and a nice figure. Then she said cheerfully. "Wow! Your archery is amazing sister Eddena!"

"Alright, we need to go back now," another girl who looked around twenty-five years old and had silver locks and a voluptuous figure said. She looked toward the darkening sky and the diving sun behind the mountains on the horizon and continued. "We need to get back to Yefsari."

"Yeah yeah, I know," said the first girl. "I will carry the boar for you. We are gonna eat roasted meat tonight!"

Eddena looked at the cheerful girl and rolled her eyes. "I always thought that wood elves were nature friendly and they would never harm any animal and eat them. After meeting you guys I realise how wrong I was."

"Hey, we love nature, alright?" Shasha argued. She carried the boar on her shoulders without any problem and continued. "But we also love meat." She winked as she said.

Eddena shook her head and walked towards Yefsara, an elven village. Shasha hurriedly caught up to her and asked. "Anyway, I always wondered what the blood of a human tastes like. You are a vampire so you must know. I heard vampires love to drink human blood."

Eddena stopped. She looked at Shasha and a creepy smile appeared on her face. "Who told you that we love to drink only human blood?" she took a step towards Shasha and said. "Elven blood is also a delicacy in the Nightshade that all vampires crave for."

"You… You…" Shasha took a few steps back and turned pale. 

"Hahaha," Eddena burst into a peal of laughter when she saw Shasha\'s frightened expression. "Look at your face. It has gone completely pale. Did you really thought I was going to drink your blood?" 

"You…!" Shasha looked at Eddene with a blank face and then said embarrassedly. "You are really bad, I\'m not talking to you anymore." She said and walked towards the village.

"Oh come on, I was just joking."

Just like that both of them walked towards the village and half an hour later the duo arrived at their destination — though the houses were built on the trees in this village, wooden ladders were made for climbing. 

As Eddena and Shasha entered the village they heard the chuckles of children who were practising archery not far away from them, a middle-aged man was instructing them and teaching them how to aim and take a proper stance.

There were a few people who were wrestling in the dirt while other elves were surrounding them and cheering and cursing from time to time. The village looked no different from any human village Eddena had seen. And as the two of them walked deeper they saw a group of children, casting spells. An old village elf — with white hair and wrinkled face and a wooden stick in her hand — with hunched back was standing behind those children and was instructing with a serious expression.

The children shouted in unison. "Whip of the Holy Wood!"

Immediately after that five stars lightened up under their feet and a long whip was released from their hands. Though there were a few children who failed to cast it. The old elf looked at their dejected expression and said with a stern expression. "What are you crying for? Cast the spell once more, and if you don\'t succeed then cast it again and again and again. 

"Remember only people with a hard-working heart and determined mindset would be able to walk further and become strong — if you can\'t take this little failure, then you better go back and cook food for your family." She looked at them and said. "Alright, today\'s lesson is done. Come tomorrow in the morning."

After lecturing, the old lady turned around, but then her gaze fell on two silhouettes that were standing not far away and were staring at her back. "Oh, you two are already back from your hunt." She looked at the boar on Shasha\'s back and went on. "Good, I was craving to eat meat for some time. I will eat today\'s dinner at your home."

Shasha grinned when she heard the old lady\'s words. "Hehe, of course, it will be an honour to eat with Granny Ti. I will let my parents know about it."

Granny Ti rolled her eyes and sighed. "You can\'t even differentiate between a joke and seriousness. What a dumb child."

Shasha looked at Granny Ti with a wide mouth and then muttered. "I wonder who could differentiate between your joke and seriousness."

"Did you say something little girl?" Granny Ti narrowed her eyes when she realised that she was murmuring something but failed to catch any phrase.

"Oh, no, it\'s nothing. I was saying that I\'m still young and have a long way to go to catch up to an elder like you. I will work hard, Granny Ti."

"It\'s good you understand." Granny Ti said and turned towards Eddena. "How is your sister-in-law doing, little girl?"

"Umm, she doing fine since Granny Ti has given her precious medicine." Eddena bowed towards her respectfully and went on. "We are really grateful for your kindness. Thank you for trusting us."

"Hmm, you need not worry," Granny Ti said. "I have lived over two hundred years and have seen all kinds of people in my life, bad and good, righteous and evil. I can tell in a single look that your family is not evil, even though you are a vampire. Alright, I\'m going to rest now. Send my meat into my house, little girl Shasha."

Then she walked away without wasting any time.

Eddena and Shasha exchanged glances and shook their heads and as well walked away. The duo arrived below a huge banyan tree and Shasha shouted. "Uncle Magnus!"

Eddena rolled her eyes when she heard her. "You call me sister, but you call my big brother uncle."

"Shoo shoo, words don\'t matter, feelings do."

"Yeah yea…"

"You two have come." At this moment a voice came from the top of the tree where a beautiful house was built and then a handsome man walked out. 

"Need a rope to pull this boar," said Shasha.

"Alright," Magnus nodded and dropped the rope. After Shasha tightened the rope, Magnus pulled the boar up.. Only then the duo went up by the support of the ladder.
