Chapter 1 summoned
It was just a normal day here in the Night Wood Realm, not one bit of daylight around due to the over crowded treetops, which my kind enjoy. We only go out in the sun if needed. When I say my kind I mean us night elves, we are a harmonized community and only fight for survival. The night wood realm is located in the secret parts of the Darkmist, which is remote forest just west of ärnor, not many people have visited but those who have and the people who live there know where it is. Most outsiders think that my kind are extinct for thousands of years because go far from our location but that was until now.
I was just at the practice range shooting off some arrows to improve my shots. Im already a brilliant fighter and archer but I like to out do my self every time, failure is not in my nature. I was using my favourite bow of all time because my father made it out of dragon bone, the strongest substance in Middle Earth. My mother on the other hand has enchanted it so when you pull back the string an arrow will appear. Anyway I was shooting away but each round I shot I missed, my pet raven Grimm squawked in shock "I know Grimm I never miss" he squawked again "I don't know, I think something bad is going to go down Grimm" just then I heard one of my fathers maids "princess shadow, princess shadow" I turned and saw her running towards Grimm and I.
"Princess Shadow" she said panting "please just call me shadow when my father isn't around" "yes princess sorry shadow… your father and mother wish for your presence in the grand hall of the castle" "ill be right there" then she ran off. I turned to Grimm and raised my eye brow, he just squawked "me neither Grimm me neither, but it has something to do with that hunch ive been having" so I grabbed my gear and headed off to the castle with Grimm on my shoulder.
There's an advantage of being a night elf and that's your senses are heightened, your speed and reflex's are better than a normal elf. I reached the castle in no time. As I entered, I saw my father pacing with his thinking face on and my mother on her throne looking distraught and what looks like a messenger from Rivendell, oh boi maybe its bad "quel andune an'da" (good afternoon father ) he stopped pacing and turned to me, in which I am bowed in front of him "vedui' my tinu" (greetings my daughter) n'uma need a' au a' amin my tinu" (no need to bow to me my daughter) so I got up and looked at my father "a maid said you need to see me" I gazed to my mother who was on the verge of tears "yes a great evil has reawaken in Middle Earth" I thought a moment whilst father paused "Sauron he's back" "so it would seem, the ring has been found and is on the way to Rivendell, our people have been summoned to sit in on the council meeting that lord Elrond has organized" I knew my bad feeling has been proven correct "atar let amin auta im I' best ohta we've got" (father let me go in the best warrior we've got) he put his hands on my shoulders and looked upon me "I know my daughter that is why Im sending you with a couple of guards" "I wish a' auta ereb" (I wish to go alone) I said in and out of our dialect "im quick on my own, I'll have no worries or distractions and I'll get there fast with midnight" he thought this proposal over then turned to my mother, who had a tear rolling down her cheek, she nodded and my father turned back to me "very well, you shall leave tonight to get there by mid afternoon tomorrow" I nodded and walked out to my room to pack. I travel light, no unwanted items just spare clothes, water for my journey, and I can find food on my travel like berries and rabbits.
I began to attach my weapons to myself and packed my armour into a travel satchel as I am already wearing my rangers out fit (polyvore link). I finished my packing then walked out the room but I heard a squawk so I back walked into my room "come on Grimm your were coming anyways you didn't need me to say anything" so he flew over to me and perched himself on my shoulder then I made my way to the stables. When I got there I attached my bag to midnight and walked him out to the courtyard where my mother and father were to bid me farewell. Mother was emotional as I am the only child at the moment but she is with child. I stopped to say farewell to my mother "namaarie atara engwar be n'alaquel" (farewell mother ill be back safely) she didn't say anything just secluded me into an embracing hug. After a minute or two she pulled away "cormamin niuve tenna' ta elea lle au' " (my heart shall not weep until it sees thy again) I hugged her one more time then I turned to my father "lema be vena my tinu" (let your journey be safe my daughter) then he gave me a tight hug and helped me mount onto midnight. I looked at my parents and said "tenna' ento lye omenta" (until next we meet) they gave me the nod and I looked forward "noro lim, midnight, noro lim" (ride fast midnight ride fast) and with that he bombed through the court yard and out of the city in no time with Grimm flying fast above us.
