Emblembabe: This chapter is fairly descriptive but cool at the end (in my opinion). This is my first fan fic so I look forward to your reviews. I'll appreciate any further suugestions too. Thank You and Enjoy!
The First Time She Saw The Moon
Ninian stood behind a fence made up of two thin wooden logs. Her hands were gently resting on the top log that came up to her hips. A little way after the fence dropped a small cliff, with the dark sea spread out before it. It sparkled and shimmered in the moonlight, with the dense silver sphere glowing at its heart. The woods whispered in the cool breeze behind Ninian. She had seen the moonlight hidden behind the trees at the campsite. The curiosity seized her and so she wondered away, trying to find a clear spot to see what the moon was. All she wanted was to see the moon in its full glory after the stories she heard from Lyn, she said that the moon controlled the seas and was beautiful when full. Ninian decided she wasn't going to look at the moon for long, but when she finally saw it, awe and wonder filled her mind, and all she could do was take in the sight.
The woods masked the campsite behind Ninian. All that existed behind the trees was darkness. But Ninian felt no fear; she was safe in this new place she had found. She turned her head away from the sea, and looked at the way she had come. Ninian saw no one, and she felt somewhat relieved yet disappointed. Everybody must be asleep, the many magic wielders, the strong fighter's, the bow men, and, of course, the gentle lord's in which she befriended. Ninian's eyes then returned to the sky, few clouds were creeping along in the breeze. Although the air was warm, the breeze was chilling. It stroked Ninian's delicate hair from her shoulders, cooling her soft skin. A chill then ran down her neck as the cold pierced her, but she remained looking upward, her crimson eyes glistening as if she were about to cry. Ninian was mesmerised by the sky. She had never seen the moon before in such a way. The stars twinkled around it to make the sight ever more blissful, with the sound of the ocean filling her ears.
Ninian lowered her head to stare across the vast horizon. She was lost in thought and memories as she entered a dreamy state of mind. The moon then blurred behind a cloud and darkness grew thicker. The breeze whipped through the trees and Ninian grew very cold. She shivered, teeth chattering she breathed in the icy air, making a small hissing sound. She let out a sigh and closed her eyes. With her arms wrapped around her shoulders she thought to herself. She knew she should return but she wanted to stay, stay at the cliff, away from war. Then all of a sudden, heat covered her, it's affectionate warmth rested upon her shoulders and penetrated her heart. With a gasp of humble shock she turned, to see Lord Eliwood standing at her side, with his cloak wrapped around her.
