Ranya smiled. "Scip".

Scipio cast around for something to say.

Ranya gasped as a necklace made of wire, black, blue and silver beads appeared around her neck. Ranya starred at it... she knew the necklace. "Oh crap".

"What's the matter?" Scipio asked as what appeared to be a binding chain appeared around her neck.

Ranya didn't know how to say it. "This necklace...", she started. "Is the necklace of a veela... when they are being called for something. My grandmother is a veela... she leads them. She promised me I would never be called upon". Ranya stood up and walked over to the window. She looked out sadly. She grabbed the necklace and snapped it from her neck. Is the world made up of betrayal...?

"Then why has it appeared?" Scipio asked, guessing he already knew the answer.

Ranya threw the necklace to the floor in anger. "Because I'm being called upon", she said turning to face him. "For war..." Ranya fell to her knees crying. "I dont want to go to war".

Scipio knelt down next to her. He put his arms around her and held her.

"I dont want to go to war", Ranya sobbed into his shoulder. "She said I would never be called... she lied to me".

"Then I shall go in your stead." Scipio said.

Ranya looked up at him. "No... I wont let you", she said. "You'll be killed if you go. She will see to it herself... I can't let you... only a veela can answer the call".

"What happens if you ignore the call?" Scipio asked.

Ranya looked down. "I dont know".

"Why not just ignore it then?" Scipio said, "Unless there really is the need for you to go to war."

Ranya shook her head. She had stopped crying now. "They will know", she said. "They always do...if I dont answer she will surely come for me"
