She began her song, a crescendo of glory.  Form that point on, the audience could only stare in awe.“That’s not your mom, is it?” asked Kham.Ilmarė practically snarled at him.  “No.”“So that’s got to be your sister.  Older or younger?”“Older.”Kham whistled softly.  “No wonder why you’re so bitter.”“What’s that supposed to mean?”“Nothing, nothing.”  He sat back, pretending to be paying attention to the show.Ilmarė abruptly got up and left the room.  She was the only one to get up from her chair.  Anulee ended her song and all the patrons rose to their feet to thunderous applause. As a comely young man stepped towards Anulee, her eyes widened and she stutter-stepped away from him.  Suddenly, the front door of the tavern burst open with a resounding thud.  A middle-aged man rushed in, carrying the bloodied and battered body of a robed elf.  “Please!” he shouted.  “Somebody help me!  Another elf lies in the alley nearby.  This one is near death himself!”Vlad and Kham shouted at the same time: “Ilmarė!”</blockquote>
