As time passed Morax kept his promise and visited Y/N almost every day, even staying a night or two just talking about their dreams, future and adventures. On some days they spar with eachother on other days they just walked together talking about memories. It was the first time that y/n felt warm and not lonely and cold.

,,Tell me y/n do you leave the forest once in a while?''
,,No not really or I just cant remember it. I've been here since I can think about it but I don't know I kinda would want to see the world outside of the forest. Maybe it'll just stay as a dream of mine..''
,, What if I told you that this dream can come true? Just come with me, the forest will be fine, the god of forest will watch over the place what do you think?''
,, I mean why not but I need to do a few things lets meet up at the place we've met the first time, tomorrow when the moon comes out.''

Morax nodded and left shortly after, leaving the female alone. She needed a plan because she cant leave the forest unprotected but she couldn't be at 2 places at the same time, or could she?

Y/N walked to the great tree and kneeled in front of the water:

„As above so below, i'm you and you are me. Rise from the waters and obey me.''

The water started to form something beneath it, with a rumbling a water formed dragon came out and danced above the water.
,, The form you'll be taking is a dragon or a deer try not to show yourself often and only intervene when its necessary.''
The dragon returned into the water and y/n walked to the bamboo forest searching for Haan as soon as she found her she told er everything and asked her to keep this as a secret. Haan nodded and turned into her fox form, disappearing in the distance. Y/N sits on the ground with crossed legs, closing her eyes.

The next day

The Moon started to rise and  Y/N was so focused that she didn't realised Morax standing across the river watching her carefully.

,,Wow, in the moonlight she's even prettier...''

,,Oh hello Rex- I mean Morax. Before we go I ehem wanted to show you something, and its about the People that the villagers claim missing. They are not actually missing they're actually alive.''
Morax walked over to her watched as she touched the ground revealing a portal
,,Come with me, don't be shy now.''

Both walked through the Portal after some seconds Morax couldn't believe what he saw, all kinds of creatures, plants trees and animals he havent seen in a millennia, all long lost and then in the distance he saw a little village.

,, These people all came one day to the forest asking for a shelter or simply a home, food and a places to be happy because they couldnt live their current life because they were robbed and killed by their on people, so the God of forest created this place for all those who need it. It didn't matter who or what they were if they only would keep the peace in here, they could stay. You know what this place is called: Yue because the first people that came here, saw the beautiful moon rising behind the Mountains as they arrived the first time.''

„Yue....

what a beautiful name for a village."

They both left shortly after and walked through the Portal back to the bamboo forest.

,,So let's get going shall we Y/N?"

He took her hand and walked with her through the forest, she looked behind her and saw Haan and a deer watching them as they were leaving. A Single tear was streaming down Y/N's face as she looked back. She turned around a started to walk slower and slower like her body not wanting her to leave. The Young Lord noticed that the female was no longer walking next to him so he turned around seeing Y/N standing still.

,, I-I- cant, no i'm sorry i can't Morax, I thought i can just walk out of here with you but i can't!'' Morax walked to her taking her left hand in his and with his right hand he put his thumb and index finger between her chin, lifting it so her now watery y/e/c eyes were lookling straight into his magnificent Amber golden ones.
,, I know you must be scared leaving and it hurts you very deeply leaving everything you love behind bu I promise you nothing bad will happen to the forest and their people while youre away and especially nothing bad will happen to you i swear it on my name and my title as the Lord of Geo.''

His right hand left her chin now swiping away her tears and walking with her with still his left hand holding hers. They walked a while till they reached the entrance or now the exit of the forest still holding hands.

,,Are you ready?''

,,I am.''

They both walked pass the exit and the landscape was breath taking, the wind blew through Y/N silk y/h/c. Her y/e/c eyes where glowing, she never thought that the world outside of the forest would also be beautiful and still with trees and nature. All these years she heard stories of the outside world but never truly believed them. They walked the whole night and watched the sun rise in the distance greeting people and visiting villages. Y/N was first very sceptical against the villagers but they've been very kind to her giving the feeling being one of them. As they both walked the whole day they finally arrived at Morax' region. She saw many Adepti but they already trusted her, there was something special about y/n they didn't know what it was but she stole everyone's heart.

Morax had his own palace with garden, pond, fish and places to sit quietly in peace, because even the warrior god Rex Lapis needs some quiet time for himself once in a while. Y/N stood at the entrée of the garden watching the beautiful glaze lillies as they move slowly in the wind.

„You can sleep in my bedroom tonight because your room should be ready tomorrow and I don't want you to force sleeping next to me, and invade your privacy."
„Morax don't be so polite with me i've been sleeping on tree branch and dirt. That's your bed and i'm fine with the floor..."
„heh, don't make me force you ;), no really it doesn't bother me and i need to take care of some things tonight thats why its fine for me, don't worry silly."
„Ok but let me take a bath first, we've been walking a whole day and i don't wanna get all the dirt on your bed."
„Sure, Shu and Hu can you please come here."

[A/N: Shu and Hu are twin adepti, Shu being the female and Hu the male]

The twin adepti appearing at the door frame bowing at the two.
„Shu my dear can you please take Y/N to the bathing place and make sure she's feeling like home. Hu please get some fruits and make the bed ready for her. Thank you."

„Yes my lord as you wish." said the two adepti in synch.
„Alright i'd better get going, see you later." He said as he padded her head and got out of the room. Shu walked Y/N to the bathing place and searched for comfy clothes. Hu was preparing some fruits in the kitchen and put them on a stone plate. He then walked to the bedroom preparing it for y/n.

After the bath Shu accompanied Y/N to Morax' bedroom and led her to the bed. The twins bowed and walked out of the room, leaving Y/N alone in the room.
„It's weird i've only been here a couple if hours and I already feel the warmth and welcoming atmosphere, I'm really very happy right now."
Y/N fell asleep quickly, after a couple of hours Morax came back from his little meeting, knocking on the door and entered the bedroom. He saw a peacefully sleeping Y/N, he slowly walked to the bed and sat beside her stroking her hair.
„Why must be everything so complicated."
Morax started to remember the talk he had with one if his ally's.

„We must take the forest spirits down as the guardian is here with us when we take them down she must allow us to talk to the forest god. Lord Morax this the chance we always wanted!"

*sighs* „I will figure this out, don't worry."

Morax left shortly after that and went for a long walk till the next day while Y/N was sleeping safe and sound.
