Chapter 8(dang already?)
Anna's point of view
As I finished my breakfast me and Haldir were called to see some really special lady whose name was long and started with a G. As we were walking there Haldir kept telling me to be very polite to this lady. Stupid lady. What makes her so special? When we got there the Lady was waiting for us. She was really shiny. She talked to Haldir for a while about his duties. I looked up when she mentioned my dad. Then went back to playing with my dress. When I looked up again she was staring at me, so I stopped. I was starting to get bored when we were allowed to leave. And oh goodie new dresses for me!
It was a long walk to the shop. (A twenty min. walk. Far for a little girl.) My feet were tired. We had been walking All mourning! I stopped and held my arms up to Haldir. He gave me a funny look like he didn't know what I wanted.
"Pick me up silly.
I'm tired of walking."
"Oh. Very well then." He picked
me up and then contained on the path. The shopkeeper was a nice
elleth by the name of Sunrise (if any one knows the elfish
translation for that let me know.) It was hard to say so she said I
could just call her Sunrise. I liked her. She was nice to me. When we
left 2 hours later I had 15 new dresses and ten more on the way. I
was happy, she was happy, and Haldir… not a happy camper. I skipped
along side as we made our way back to his home. Haldir hung my out
fits inside closet. The turned to me asked me which one I wanted to
wear that day. I pointed to a plain baby blue one. He gripped the
dress and an outfit for himself then taking my hand led me to a
bathroom. Inside there was a huge tub in the center. He handed me a
soap, shampoo, and towel, then turned to leave.
"You're not going to help me?"
He turned. "Do you
require help?"
"Daddy always does." He sighed.
"very
well then." And with that he kneeled and began removing Annas
outfit.
