Check for inconsistencies.
Notes:
*I did some formatting changes to make it cleaner on the official sheet. All in all, all values have not been changed, so all is well.  In particular, I chaged Paragon Class Features to Paragon Path features.

Love Amidst Darkness
It has been 23 years, 9 months, 18 days since that faithful and horrible event in Archyrron. I can still remember the screams of terror of my kin. Innocent people died during that day. No one was spared from that enraged Elven High Magi, Syvish Zwalt. He kept on calling my name. Luring me out, so that he can exact his vengeance upon me…
A couple of month’s ago, I was hunting a gray wolf in the forest of Cinderleaf. I was cautiously following my prey, studying it’s every move, waiting for an opening to let one of my arrows find its mark. Strangely enough, this wolf was very elusive. It knew that someone was following but did not bother to defend itself. Every time I was about to shoot, it just kept running deeper into the woods.
It was testing my patience and I was full of it. It has been an hour since I started chasing this damned wolf. It left me no choice. I steadily stretched out my hands, dark flames rushed out. Darkness immediately snuffed out the vision of the poor creature. As soon as I know that it was blind, I let one of my arrows fly. It pierced the beast’s thigh leaving a gushing wound which greatly hampered its movement. I moved closer to finish my prey and I was surprised with what I stumbled upon. Instead of a wolf’s body, there was a naked female elf lying unconscious on the ground with an arrow lodged into one of its legs.
Weeks passed, it took me a while to convince our leader to let an unconscious elf into our secret conclave. He finally gave in after some rounds of fist fights and a little coercive persuasion. The female elf was unconscious for weeks. No one wanted to help me with her. It was very awkward for a drow like me to take care of someone else. Caring has never been a skill for someone like me. Survival of the fittest is one of the rules that we live by in our conclave. That is how it should be but there is something about this girl...
On the third week, she finally regained consciousness. She told me her name was Maruel, a druid from an elven conclave named Featherwood. That was weird. I’ve been hunting for almost the rest of my life in these lands but never heard of nor ventured to such a place. If such a place exists, I thought we would have either plundered it or either destroyed it the moment we knew its existence.
Days passed, I got to know Maruel better. She taught me about the customs of their people. She also kept on lecturing me about peace, love and friendship. Ideals which had no room in our custom. It took me some time to get used to such nonsense. I tend to be amused by her care-free attitude.
The night before she was about to depart our village, she told me of the sad faith that awaits her back at their conclave. She was to be wed to an elf of higher stature. A sharp pain pierced my chest as her soft and gentle words found its way to my ears.
It can’t be possible. Is this… is this what they called love? , I told myself.
I discovered love during that night.
I was surprised the next day that she was gone. I felt sad. I missed her. I kept on hunting on the same grounds where I first found her. Hopelessly wishing that I would be able to glimpse upon her again.
I walked back to our conclave and was surprised with what I found. Elves have overrun the conclave. The smell of burnt flesh filled the air. Fires raged forth as it ate its way thru our homeland. A man in noble clothes kept on screaming. Screams of suffering drowned out what he was trying to say. I tried to read his lips from afar. The hair at the back of my neck stood up as I was able to decipher what the noble was saying. It was:
Cyrille of Archyrron, show yourself!!!!! How dare you!!!! You have tainted my betrothed. Not only have you spit on our customs but you have tainted our magnificent race with your foul blood. For this, your kin and your village shall be purged.
Come out you, coward!!!! Show yourself!!!! Maruel is MINE! Mine alone. You will never set your filthy eyes on her again.
The enraged elf kept shouting as he burned everything that moved into ashes.
I carefully aimed an arrow to his heart. My heart was pounding. There was no time to waste. I pulled on the string of my bow with all my strength. I was about to let go then out of nowhere someone tackled me. I tried to struggle against my attacker but it pinned me to the ground.
You idiot, don’t kill the only person that could lead you to where your beloved is.
A tree-like creature stood before me with its roots pinning me to the ground as it spoke to me in my native tongue.
Maruel is safe. She pleaded to us to keep you away from Syvish. He is far too powerful for you. You will need some aide. Go to Ilawith. Once you have strong companions, look for me again and I will guide you to Featherwood.
Syvish, when I get back. I'll show you how dark the world could be.
Maruel, my love, wait for me. I’ll come for you even if I need to wander for eternity.
