| Welcome to Elenlond, an original medieval fantasy forum! We're always looking for new, dedicated members. Elenlond is composed of two continents: Soare and Esiria. Esiria, a land now isolated due to the efforts of the last remaining Goddess, is inaccessible to all beings and lies in the east. Soare, a continent in the west, is composed of three distinct nations: Ashoka, Soto, and Morrim. Lying between the two major continents are the Scattered Isles. Since the dissolution of the pantheon and the fall of the gods, these countries have existed in relative peace and prosperity. But how long will that peace last?

If she were warm and fuzzy she'd be a kitten

A black leatherbound book sits upon Shadow's dresser, a quill and a bottle of ink sitting beside it. The quill has just been dipped in the ink, for it is still wet. Beyond the black leather cover are many, many blank pages. They are starting to be filled up, however, as with each interesting event in her life, Shadow writes. It is the only door to her true feelings inside, to her soul. Few have ever seen it, and few probably ever will. Sometimes there is a blank space below each entry or on the next page where the word 'Comments' has been written. If this is the case, they may respond to her writing. Certain pages are blank, as well, which would indicate that the entry, written in sapphire or navy ink, has been hidden from prying eyes. All in all, it's just a small place for Shadow to pour her heart and soul into when she is unable to speak her thoughts and feelings aloud. |

[Allow Replies: NO (Alex is an exception)] Things have been quiet within my Kingdom as of late. Mystic has been at peace, grazing outside of the temple's beautiful gardens, beyond its walls, in the open pastures and plains that are hers to frolick in. She glides along the ocean too, and visits it occasionally with me. We make such a wonderful pair, 'tis hard to believe that she is a pegasus. I could never imagine my life without her, for where would I be? Dead, I would think, or worse; slavery. Tallaraeio is well too. She sleeps with me at night, usually, unless she takes to wandering the Kingdom alone or with Mystic. Such a big tiger she is becoming, from a cub to an adolescent with a taste for battle. I would never send her into one, however, for where would there be sense in that? I do not wish to see the gift given to me by Lilly slain because of my foolish desire for slaughter. It had been rather quiet here, till Merisier made her appearance. She came for an alliance and for magic, but because I do not wish to give such power to her when I do not like her or her element, why should I? Perhaps I am being rash, and I'm sure that Alex will find out somehow, only to wonder what could possibly be wrong with me. I should, of course, be aligning myself with anyone that I meet up with - namely the Gods and Goddesses - but how can I when I wish not to associate with them? At the notion of being rejected in both magic and alliance Merisier basically theatened me. She claimed things I wish not to write here, but the only one that got to me was what would happen if Alex wasn't there... What if he wasn't there, as the God of Light, my husband, and my haven, to protect me? What then? People know nothing of my past. I have never spoken it aloud, and Alex has only captured glimpses of it through what had been Phaeton's Well. But... One day I will speak it from start to finish, and he will understand why Merisier and I are not to get along, either by fate or by choice. For now I shall prepare myself for an onslaught that shall come eventually. I'm sure Merisier doesn't make idle threats, and so I must prepare. My birthday is coming soon... It is nothing special; I shall simply be fifteen years old, and almost ten years ago I watched my parents killed by the dragon. If I had emotion flowing through my veins, if I could cry right now, I would be. I wish they weren't dead, I really do... If there was one thing I could have returned to me, it would be them. But, for resurrection is not in my power, I shan't dwell on these thoughts... I do not deserve them, if they are already dead, and so am content to live life alone. Besides, I do have a family; my darling Alex, Mystic, and Talla. They are my family, and forevermore will be. I will never let Alex go, to say for certain, because I love him so dearly. One cannot comprehend these feelings murmuring within my body, itching to release themselves from their inner prison. People think I am insane for loving another person so, but when you've been alone all your life, and you find someone like him, you find instant love. I married him for a reason, you know. I simply didn't say 'Yes' because I thought I could make it work out, being so young. I knew I could make it work out if I really tried. And it has worked out. Or, at least I hope it has. I know I have emotionally damaged him, I'm sure, via ignoring his presence, being cold, leaving him as he is... I cannot help it, these changes; they are far too much for me to handle now. Power shifts, threats... they are beginning to create pressure that I cannot handle on top of everything else in this barren world. I love him dearly, and you don't know how hard it is to ignore him. I want to hold him, kiss him... I want to bury my face into his neck and his chest and feel his tails wrapped around my body, accompanied with his arms, to feel his voice in my ears, telling me everything will be all right, that he still loves me, that he still wants me, that I am his... This, above all, brings tears to my eyes, and yet I may not shed them. Alex... I love you. Please, please, please don't ever forget that. Don't leave me here to die... Please, love... I think, after writing this, I shall go and visit him... If I can summon up enough courage to do that, enough will-power, I can do anything. I will visit him now, then, and hopefully he'll understand this. For now I'll leave my temple in the care of Mystic and Talla, for Mystic can speak and Talla will understand simply from the actions of the pegasus. Until next time, then, when I am fifteen. --Water is my Soul...-- [size=7]Shadow[/size] |
