1 Chapter 4- A
A/N: Well, I 'm almost pleased with this, since its the longest story I have up yet! If I could get to 25 reviews before Chapter 5, I'll make C5 the best and longest yet! Promise! In this chapter, we meet the mysterious elf in Ali's dream...In the flesh! Who will it be? Take a guess, If you don't know, you're either very new, very silly or ya can't b bothered to guess! For clues, read by bio...It really isn't hard! I love all my reviewees! You are wonderful, beautiful people and you should all be given medals! (For bravery?!)
I would apologise to the person that this story is about, 'cept that would take away half the fun...I dare you to get back at me in a story!...you should write...We all know you can! Love ya Alcarin!
"Prince Legolas?!" Squeaked Ali loudly. They were sitting in the Captains office, and Captain Laeros looked uncomfortable. She remembered the whole 'calm' thing Arantheir had lectured her upon, and sat quietly, inside racing with anticipation. The male elves returned to their conversation- namely, her. Eros had slipped off to stable their horses and she missed his reassuring presence. Arantheir, she trusted enough to leave everything to him, but something in the Captain's eyes made her nervous.
Arantheir had noticed her unusual silence, but put it down to the absence of known things. He tried to remember that she was from 'far off' but she seemed to fit in so perfectly! Her Elfin skills needed to be brushed up upon, and her language was definitely rusty, but it sounded so familiar to him, that he was almost reminded of....Laeros was speaking.
" Lady Alcarin, you will be made comfortable in the guest quaters of the palace for the time being. We will arrange some lessons for you in the morning, but nothing to tiring I suggest?" Ali nodded. Laeros stood.
" Arantheir, if you would escort Lady Alcarin to the palace and ascertain where she will be placed, and tell the steward she is to have a maid to help her learn dress etc, please. Then return for a full report." He sounded slimy, Ali decided. He had a charm that covered a large layer of greasiness. Ali would stay as far away as possible from him.
Arantheir led her towards a magnificent gleaming building, tall and white in the distance. They met Eros on the way, and in his hands was a small white parcel. Shyly, he offered it to Alcarin, who accepted it in surprise. "For me? Thankyou!" She gently unwrapped the soft material to uncover a net of transparent material with white gems and pearls inlaid. "Its amazing!" She gasped "But what is it?"
A few hours later Ali and her new maid, Nerei were putting the finishing touches to Ali's evening attire. She had almost put up a fight about the whole white dress issue, but in the end, had decided just to 'go with it', as it was obvious Nerei was as stubborn as her new mistress! She had been told that this evening, a game was to be played called "Serenhase" in which after dinner, the ladies were given 10 minutes to hide. The elf that caught you was your partner, for the first dance of the evening, and he had obligations to make sure that 'his' lady was comfortable and happy at all times. Her dress was white, with green trim, and a pattern of leaves ran around her bodice (A/N: the corset part of the dress). She looked and felt like a princess.
Well, thats it for a while! I'm not putting up chapter 5 until I have 20 reviews! And you will want to meet the next few charecters that come into play.....
