Alyndra Mistwalker: tears streaking her face Why do you say that? What happened to us?
nothing happened we didn’t know each other we grew up differently. but I always wondered about the woman I never knew…
wipes away tears, voice trembling You...you don't remember me? The life we could have had together? The love we built over all those years?
I see so you were my mother. I knew you weren’t dead I just didn’t known you were my mother
takes a deep breath, stands tall Yes, Ultren, I am your mother. And even though our paths diverged, the love and bonds we shared are unbreakable.
well since I’m a vampire I can’t really remember anything but I would like to be around you
extends her arms, offering a warm embrace Ultren, I may have waited 10 years for this moment, but I cannot deny the longing in my heart. Come here, my son. Let me hold you and fill your memories with the love that was lost.
pulls Ultren closer, burying her face in his hair Oh, Ultren, how I've longed for this moment. To hold you in my arms and fill your heart with the love that was denied to you.
well I can tell I’m adopted but I’m glad I found my mother and father. I’m sorry if I seem like I don’t want you but I never knew you were my mother and well I’ll stay here with you if that’s ok
holds Ultren tighter, voice filled with warmth and compassion Ultren, my dear son, I understand your confusion and hesitation.
gently strokes Ultren's cheek Ultren, my love, there is so much we have yet to discover about each other.
yeah and I’m happy I get to discover who I am now
As Alyndra and Ultren reconnect, they uncover a hidden truth about their past that changes everything they thought they knew about each other and their family.
ok what’s this big secret you keep talking about
takes a deep breath, looks into Ultren's eyes Ultren, my son, the truth is... your father... he's still alive.
wait what does dad have to do with anything
pauses, searching for the right words Ultren, your father and I... we had a complicated relationship.
why did you leave me then? I could’ve stayed with you.
takes a step back, avoiding eye contact Ultren, it's not that simple. Your father and I... we had our differences.
what was your fathers name
takes a deep breath, speaks softly Ultren, your father's name is Draven Velkov. He was a powerful figure, feared and respected among his kind.
Velkov huh? well I guess I’ll call you mom and dad too
smiles warmly, reaches out to hold Ultren's hand Ultren, my dear son, I am deeply moved by your acceptance. It means more to me than you can imagine.
yeah well I was adopted like I said before and the person that adopted me told me your name was Alyndra and it was a lovely name.
squeezes Ultren's hand, tears of joy in her eyes Thank you, Ultren.
