Alana glared slowly at Bob, "She did what...?" Alana began to say before quickly turning on her heels and walking back towards the waterfall. Lasinda looked at Bob before shrugging, Go and get your friend, I will return home and get ready for the adventure. Lasinda's voice was sweet as it flowed through Alana and Bob's mind. We can meet here afterwards. She smiled before heading towards her house.
One of the elven guards had passed by the waterfall only to see a soaking wet woman laying on it's sandy shore,"Hey! You're not allowed to there!" He yelled out before storming down the steps.
Whispa heard the guards. She didn't care. Nothing could repair her for what she had just seen. She didn't stand up. She felt weak, exhausted. She heard the guard running down the steps. She felt them pick her up, shaking her, yelling her. She heard one of them say something about taking her somewhere, trying to lift her to her feet. She didn't care.
Alana was the first to reach the waterfalls only to see her friend being picked up by the guards who attempted to take her away, "What is the meaning of this?" Alana's voice held a strong yet angered tone. One of the elven guards looked towards Alana before saluting, "We found her swimming in the sacred waterfall." He spoke with respect before gesturing his men to ease up on Whispa. Alana looked at her friend only to notice that she wasn't look very chirpy, "I would like you to leave her punishment in my care, she was unaware of this. Thank you." Alana spoke with a short fuse while walking towards her friend, "Whispa get up. We need to head out now." Her voice was in a whisper as she bent down to be in ear shot of her friend.
Lasinda walked up towards a small hut made from the land itself, it looked as if the tree had formed into the building over the years it's been deformed, the garden held many strange and unusual flowers bright pinks to deep blues. Lasinda opened the door and walked right in cheerfully, Please by all means. Come in and make yourself at home, I promise to only take a few moments. The voice was sweet and caring as it swam through Bob's head.
Bob nodded, and stepped through the door, having to duck a tiny bit. The place was beautiful, nearly everything made out of wood. He gasped as he looked around, taking everything in. This was why he loved the elven kind.
Whispa flopped back on the sand, covering her ears. She didn't want to hear one of Alana's stupid lectures.
A few moments had passed before Lasinda had returned downstairs in a multi-shaded green ranger outfit, her bow and quiver strapped to her back, We can leave now. The voice called out for Bob as Lasinda picked up a small indian weaved bag and filled it with odds and ends. I am sure your friends will need help at the waterfall, things don't seem to be going smoothly. Lasinda's voice seemed too calm for safety.
Alana frowned, she did not have the time to waste standing here, "Whispa we have a timed situation, we do not have time to be rolling in the sand, get up and let's go." Her voice seemed to be on edge, something was bothering Alana.
Bob frowned worriedly. "Yes. Let's go" he said, before holding the door open for the beautiful elf. The two hurried down the path, going back the way they came, trying to get there fast.
Whispa rolled over and looked up at Alana, showing her face, tear stained, eyes puffy. "It was hers..." She said. "It was... hers..."
Lasinda could see the waterfall up ahead, she could also see Alana and Whispa on the soft yellow sand of the Waterfall, What's going on? Lasinda's voice echo'd through Bob's mind.
Alana looked at her friend, "What was hers?" She finally asked before shifting uncomfortably in her position.
Whispa looked at Alana's green eyes. "My Mum... her locket is down there..." She sniffed.
Bob jogged over to Alana, looking at the two girls. "Whats happening here!?"
Alana looked at the water, it sparkled like a thousand diamonds as the waterfall hit the surface. "Why were you swimming in the pool to begin with?" Alana asked her friend in a much easier tone.
Lasinda looked at Whispa before looking into the water of the pool, Do you know what this waterfall is? Whispa... The soft more understanding voice ran through Whispa's mind only.
Whispa wiped some of her tears, before looking at Lasinda's soft face. "N-no" She stammered. The elf's voice was gentle and calming.
Bob squinted at the water, confused as to what was going on here.
The guards had seen Lasinda walk up towards the small group of humans, with a quick jab towards the others they bowed in respect towards the Songweaver.
Lasinda sat down next to Whispa and looked at the calming water, It is a memorial, a place to come and honor the dead. Some of us come here and seek guidance from our elders, some just come here for comfort. The voice of Lasinda gentle washed through Whispa's mind. What you saw was indeed your mothers Locket, ages ago I showed this waterfall to a man that held that locket close to his chest. He told me he wanted a place to secretly visit his passing lover. I had shown him this waterfall, I asked him to say his last goodbyes with the locket and with that he tossed it into the waters of the pool. The voice continued softly, Lasinda pointed at the water, It is meant to stay down there, in the waters of light. She smiled gently, It is the reason the water glitters with hope, with love and with familiarness. Lasinda turned towards Whispa, her teal colored eyes met Whispa's as she smiled, That man was your father.
Alana looked over towards Lasinda and then to Bob, "Hopefully you remember the way back." Was all Alana could say at the moment before gesturing at the elven guards, "We will need our horses please."
