Part three of three
#47- The Nature of Evil
Legolas to wonder when he was five years old. He couldn't say what he was wondered about, but what he could say was that he began to take things for granted less and less often.
It started when Ada said that he couldn't go outside anymore; at least, not without a grown-up with him to take care of him.
Or maybe it started when Galion stopped telling him bedtime stories. Galion was always too tired for bedtime stories now.
But no- it started when Nana disappeared. Of course. How could he forget? That's why he wasn't allowed to go outside. The spiders and orcs and everything nasty and evil took her away to live with them. Ada didn't want it to happen to him too, so that's why he had to stay inside.
He was quiet now, too. He'd been quiet ever since Ada found out that Nana was gone. He hadn't wanted to disturb, and he didn't want to interfere, so he was quiet.
But he did miss the old days, when the whole family had gone together outside in the sunshine, out to picnic, out to play together. When Nana used to laugh, when Ada used to smile, and when Galion wouldn't wince at a sudden word, at an exclamation of joy.
Before the nature of evil had made itself known in the greenwood.
I apologize for not updating for so long... I was stuck on how the third part of the series should go. Thanks to all of my reviewers; you're all so kind. X) Hopefully updates should be a little faster, now that I've(I think) gotten over this block.
