A knock at the door startled Oralie. She lifted her weary head and walked to the door.
"Oralie? Oralie are you in there?" The person outside asked. Oralie assumed it was Lady Amlistra, and she opened the door to receive a hug. It was Lady Amlistra. Her favourite mentor. She always wore the prettiest dresses to foxfire, and they always matched perfectly with her deep brown hair, and bright sapphire eyes.
"Oralie, are you ok?" Lady Amlistra asked. Oralie didn't say anything, but just kept crying into her mentor's tunic.
"Let me hail the council, ok?" Lady Amlistra said. Oralie nodded, and she followed Lady Amlistra.
"Come let's go to your room." Lady Amlistra suggested. They walked up the same stairs Oralie had walked up, just a mere half hour ago, ready to go dress shopping. Oh, how she longed to be dress shopping with mother right now.
"Come on." Lady Amlistra said, as she hurried Oralie into her room.
"What happened?" Lady Amlistra said calmly.
"I-I don't know. There was a crash. And a bang of pots, of some sort. And then screams. When the screams subsided, there was nothing. Silence. No one." Oralie said.
"It's ok. I'm sure the council will figure it out." Lady Amlistra assured her.
"But, I've never heard a murder before. Elves are non-violent. Who would do such a thing?" Oralie asked.
"I'm not sure. Stay with me, we'll figure something out later." Lady Amlistra said. Lady Amlistra sat with her in her room, and stroked Oralies blonde hair.
"Can we go dress shopping later?" Oralie asked.
"Of course." Lady Amlistra said.
A loud bang on the door startled both Oralie and her mentor. They hurried down the stairs, and peeked through small opening by the door.
"It's the council, don't worry." Lady Amlistra said. She opened the door.
"Lady Amlistra," Councillor Bronte nodded towards her, "what happened?"
"I'm not sure. Young Oralie has tried to explain what has happened, but her memory of the event was spotty." Lady Amlistra said.
"Ah, yes," He said as he leaned down towards Oralie, "it's ok. Come. Let's go talk."
"Can I come with her? The girl needs a familiar face to sit with her." Lady Amlistra said.
"Of course," he said, holding out a hand to Oralie, "let's go."
