Emily walked toward the orchard thinking about Olar .She was not quite sad that he had died but she wondered if it couldve ended differently.She had wanted so badly to help Olar but he had come so close to killing her.Her hope had been to stop Olars attacks without killing him, but she hadn't really understood. Now she knew what he had meant.There was no way to stop a drow from being a drow. Emily swept her hand along the tries imagining she was still here planting them with Olar. Emily came through to the end of the trees and pulled a shovel from her bag She dug a small whole and slowly and carefully placed a sprout in it covering it back up. she thought about how Olar would never plant a tree again. What would happen to his Orchard? Emily filled in the ground around the sprout and stood up."There is too much death in this world Olar"She said quietly, "so everytime someone is killed i will start a new life here in this Orchard". "I really do miss you Olar" A single tear fell onto the sprout and she walked away.

Some say you can still hear the snoring in the treehouse at the end of the massive orchard, in the three combined apple trees.

At midnight a mist surrounded the orchard. And as light came upon the dark forest, the only memory that was left of the child.. vanished.
