*Leetah released Sebastian and smiled.*
"Oh, no, that's ok!" *She replied.* "Please come in. There is someone I want you to meet. Figwit, this is Sebastian. Sebastian, this is my son, Figwit. I am glad you meet each other now, because you two will see each other a lot."

*Figwit approached and bowed.*
"Ellen sila Lumen Omentielvo, Sebastian."

*Leetah smiled proudly at her son's well-mannered behaviour.*
"But why I asked you to come here, Figwit, is because I have a plan about how we can get rid of... THEM."

*Figwit wondered what the man--not an elf, and not human--was doing here, but his mother's friends were none of his business.*
"Indeed? Then I am glad to hear it."

"Sebastian here is my soulmate, Figwit. So I hope you don't mind demons?"
*Leetah looked at him lovingly. Then she became serious. She placed a map at the table in front of him.*
"I have spoken to Wild, Haldir and Malefica. From what I have been told, I have made this map for you. This is the Land of Shadows.
We have one possibility to destroy these devils once and for all: To collect the ingredients for a potion, and then lure the devils to drink that potion.
This preparations will take two expeditions to the Land of shadows. One to collect the ingredients and bring them back here to mix the potion. Then another expedition to lure the devils to drink the potions.
The expeditions will be very dangerous. You have seen yourself how malicious these creatures are. And Malefica warned me that there is a strong possibility that her mother, Queen Lilith of Hell, will attack us if we try to destroy the devil people.
That is why I want to send out just small groups to do this tasks. What do you think?"

*Figwit wondered briefly again about his father, but pushed the thought back. As long as Leetah was happy, he was happy.
He was not, however, smiling. He stared darkly at the map.*
"I will do it."

*Leetah wrapped her arms around her son and hugged him gently. She had seen a wondering look in his eyes, and guessed it had something to do with his father.*
"Your father was not the kind of man who stays with one woman for the rest of his life, Figwit. And I was too young and inexperienced when I met him to understand that."
*She studied the map together with him, worried about the dangers, but also proud of his bravery.*
"I knew you would say that, my son. But I won't let you go alone. It is too dangerous. Take with you a small group of people, after your own choice. You are wise enough to pick them out. But I want to know who you are picking. Is that ok with you? And for the second expedition, there will be one or two persons who will join you. I have chosen them myself. Because that is the most dangerous expedition."

*Figwit nodded.*
"I will, Mother. I've been trained for this, and I will be careful."

*Leetah hugged her son and kissed his forehead.*
"I am glad to hear that, Figwit. I can't afford to lose you. You are my only child, and I love you. Even though I couldn't keep you here with me when you were born."

*Figwit smiled.*
"I know, Mother. And I understand. Things don't always go the way we plan. But I'm here now, and I will fulfill my duty as a son of Lorien."

*Leetah smiled also. She was so proud of her son. He was turned in to a handsome young man.*
"I appreciate your understanding, Figwit. Thank you. And I am glad you will fulfill your duty. Have you thought about who you will bring with you for the first expedition to the Land of Shadows?"

"Wild," *he said.* "She has offered, and she is tough. If she will go, I will take her."

*Leetah nodded.*
"Wild is a good choice. She was born in The Land of Shadows and knows the landscape and the people there well. If you meet the Dark Elves, she will come in handy, with her connections. Have you thought about anyone else?"
((I was thinking about Captain Kirk, but don't know if he is around when this happens.))

((I guess we'll say Kirk had to do something before coming over, so he's just getting here now.))
*Kirk knocked at the doorway, peering into the treehouse.*
"Leetah?" *he asked.*

((That's work fine with me )) *Leetah stood up and invited Captain Kirk inside. She offered him a place to sit.* "Ah, Captain Kirk, how kind of you to join us. This is my son, Figwit. And this..." *She motioned against Sebastian* "... is my soulmate, Sebastian. Figwit, Sebastian, this is Captain James Kirk. He wanted to join the expedition, Figwit."
