Meltesh - Jar Karen Torbiak 2000 She walks gracefully through the bush following paths that show by their overgrowth are not well traveled It is twilight and full darkness is fast approaching so she quickens her step that she may reach more familiar land before she rests She had been called to the council of the magi so she had to travel alone that she and she alone be the one to receive the omens She is dressed in the clothes of the men of her race which is unusual in itself but to feed her female vanity her outfit is the color of turquoise She has long thought it foolish that women can’t wear pants when hunting or traveling in the forest and then a giggle bubbles up as she remembers women do not usually hunt and bear arms Having lost her mother when very young she was raised alone by a loving father who wanted a son therefore she was taught in all the ways of the men and she thought with a sigh could best all in her tribe Her woman’s heart was heavy with this for when she was sealed she wanted a man who could win her heart by beating her in all the arts of war Her sharp, pointy ears twitched as they picked up a sound that could not have been heard had it not been for the sensitive elven senses she has finely trained Whatever it was she could not identify as it moved with stealth ever closer but her nose and sense of evil filled her that she prepared to come face to face with a nightmare Love I leave with you my friend whether it be in your life or of yet the essense of your dreams. http://path2riches.com |
