Disclaimer: I do not own anything, not the Forgotten Realms, not Ellefain, not Drizzt Do'Urden.
Am I the only one that cried at the end of Sea of Swords? Ellefain's story made my so sad . . .
This is from Ellefain's point of view, obviously.
Wistful dancing.
Beautiful, bright
Twirling 'neath
The starlit night.
Singing sylven songs
Sung with passion
Sung with love
Sung with kin.
Hand in hand
With beautiful mother
Little sister.
Little brother.
Swept high
Up in the air
By trusted father
Without a care.
Kissed with grace
Kissed with love.
Kissed with joy.
Kissed to the stars above.
Click:
A thousand clicks
Shooting past
Barely seen, tick-tick-tick.
Fall:
Father's fall from grace
Kissing ground
The forest's lace.
Screams:
Sister's screams
Brother's screams
My desperate screams.
Mother!
Dead: dead.
Savage swipe.
Oh! dead: dead.
Run!
Run to her!
Mother! Mother!
My beautiful Mother!
Cry:
I cry, cry
Dark figures shoot past:
Screams from sky.
Lavender eyes.
The fall of a scimitar.
I kiss the ground.
Am I no more?
Touched with blood:
My Mother's blood!
On his hands.
Blood: all that blood, all that death.
Up.
Up my back.
Now under her.
Through my body screams rack.
Terror.
I hear them.
Drow! Evil drow!
What have you done?
Nothing.
I crawl out
From under her.
I fear to shout.
Will that bring them back to me?
No: no!
Can Heaven hear my cries?
Oh, no!
My silent cries?
Him.
Lavender eyes.
I know you.
Don't be surprised.
Rage:
You killed them!
Drow: evil drow!
Why did you kill them?
Scream:
I scream
All that rage
Just tears at my seams.
They hold me back.
Let me at him!
All dead, dead!
Then light dims.
Dead again.
I see them so clearly:
Fallen father, fallen mother:
Held close so dearly.
Slain sister, little brother:
Baby brother!
Why, why why?
And mother, my beautiful mother!
Once again I cry.
Hero.
Ha.
Evil drow!
Liar!
I saw, Drow elf.
I saw so clear.
You, your kin, does it matter?
You destroyed all I held dear.
Hate:
I will chase you,
I will chase you to the ends of the world.
I hate you, for all that you did, for all that you do.
Child killer!
You deserve death!
I saw, evil elf:
I saw my mother's last breath!
Scimitar's twirl:
Evil slash!
Dying in darkness.
Them darkness is past.
Vengence.
I lift my head.
"You are dead, Drizzt Do'Urden.
My family is avenged."
I love you.
Mother: my lovely mother.
My hansome father.
My pretty little sister.
My sweet baby brother.
Avenged.
I draw my last breath.
Finally, vengence is mine.
Slip away into death.
My first Forgotten Realms fic . . . do ya like it?
