Esmera was walking in the rain.
The event of the night, where she learned that her dream was true, left her filled with sorrow and hanger. She could not beleive what those she called her friends and family were able to do. The horrors they were believing as normal.
After Tregarde and Geldriia left her that night, leaving their hairpins behind, she went outside and started walking around town, she just couldn't stay in her home anymore. She wanted to get the images and dark thought out of her head but she couldn't, every second her rage against her "friends" was going stronger.
How could Gel could take her own life like that, and how could Tre help her?
Are how the Dark Elfs that digusting?
I am alone, finding this horrible?
Will they expect that I do the same to prove myself worthy as a Knight for Her?
And what kind of Goddess could ask for the life of those that were still living?
She was walking toward the Temple of Eva when she lost her balance, her feet slipping on the water, her head hit the rail, making her lose consciousness as her body falled on the water below the bridge.
Darkness....
When she opens her eyes again she could difficultly see anything and her head was hurting, she touched her forehead with her hand to find she was bandaged. It took her almost a minute to realize she was laying naked in a bed, in a place she didn't know. Looking around and trying to focus her eyes she finally saw a form that seemed to be a person.
".......hello?..."
The form seemed to move then she heard a voice.
"You are finally awake, I was worried that you wouldn't make it, you hurt your head pretty bad and you swallowed a lot of water. Good thing I found you in time and thank Eva for her help in healing you."
"....who are...?"
"I'm sorry, I am High Priestess Morelyn and you are in my quarters in the Temple of Eva. I know who you are, lady Esmera, I saw you numerous times around town and your reputation as a crafter precede you."
"...what happe...?"
"You seemed to be still in pain, wait"
The form seemed to get up then come toward her, she heard her cast a spell then the pain in her head mostly vanished and her eyes were able to see normaly. She recognize the women, she really was who she said she were.
"Young one, you should be careful while walking in the rain, you slipped and hit your head pretty bad, you would have drown if I didn't saw you fall in the water."
Esmera was looking at her, she wanted to feel gratefull for the person that saved her life, but somehow she couldn't. Her heart was still filled with anger and it was clouding everything else. She was just able to say a little "Thanks" before asking where was her clothes.
"They are on the chair just here, I had them dryed up for when you would wake up."
The women gazed into Esmera's eyes as if she was reading her thought. She then sitted at Esmera's side then placed her hand on Es's shoulder.
"I can feel you are in distress, I feel something has happened to you that filled you with hanger"
Esmeras shruged and her eyes went down as the memories of Gel's ritual came back to her mind.
"I don't know what is eating you inside, but if I can give you an advice don't let it consume you, be strong and fight the darkness in you. Life is important and you shouldn't live it only through hanger."
Esmera said nothing, the woman got up.
"I need to get back to my duties, if you need anything I'll be in the common room of the Temple. Lady Esmera, don't forget that life can be beautiful, even if sometime it can also be difficult."
Thee women left. Esmera got out of the bed and got dressed. A thought was appearing in her head, a crazy tought, an idea to get the anger her out of her. She didn't think it would work, but she hated what she had become as she hated everything around her.
She got back to her home wothout seeing the priestress again. Gel and Tre's haipins were still on the ground, earlier, she almost destroyed them out of her anger. But now even if she still hated Tre and Gel for what they had done she couldn't destroy 2 of her most beautiful work. She took them, placed them in a silk sheet then put them safely in a drawer. Then she cleaned the broken vase that she threw on the door earlier, for some reason she couldn't bring herself to throw away the rose, the rose Gel gave her after she came back of her exile. She went to her bookshelf, took the biggest book she had and placed the rose in the middle of it.
Looking around, she finally thought about Andella, her love that was away. Then she got afraid, she couldn't feel love for Della anymore, just emptyness, worse than that, hate was growing for her. Della was a dark elf, all dark elf were monsters.
"No...not her too..."
She grabbed some paper and wrote a note, put it in an envelope, wrote Della on it and placed it on the table. She quickly prepared a traveling bag, trowing some clothes in it.
She left her appartment, thinking that maybe, just maybe, her idea could make her feel normal again.
