Short stories

story 3

None of the females in the family wanted it but the Patriarch of the family demanded it. The marriage was final. There was no fighting about it. Elves were Pretentious and Presumptuous beings. To go against the leader or male was an insult to their whole culture and family. So when Ellana found out she was to marry one of the men in her village she started Loathing her father and other Kinsman. Ellana was always different from the rest of the villagers. When they focused on fighting, music, and art she focused on plants and science. She could tell you anything about any plant out there. The healing properties and the harmful properties along with the correct way to grow and harvest them to get the best results. Ellana's favorite plant to study would have to be the Lysanthir Ianphyra. She had so much Adoration for it because she was able to find out it could make a healing potion that can heal anything no matter how bad the injury was. She named it total heal 'how original. I need to get better at naming things.' Ellana thought. She mostly had to make her work and studies Covert. She made a Rash decision to run away from home. From the forest.

It was Ellana's first time out of the forest. The world around her looked so bright compared to the dark forest light she was used to. Ellana heard a scream from about 20 yards away. There was a group of humans in what looked to be very weak armor. "What do we do?! He's gonna bleed out. And then die! One human said quickly. Ellana debated whether or not to help or just walk away. Her heart got in the way so she softly spoke "I could help if you need it." Her voice was barely over a whisper but one guard heard and dragged her to the bloody human. To her, it was a simple cut. She almost giggled at how Naïve they looked. "Can you help him elf or are you just going to stand there and wait?" The short human snarled at her as an ogger would. "Yes' I can help. It isn't that bad he just needs to drink this." Ellana informed holding up a bottle of total heal. "Where I come from I am an Apothecary and this is one of my healing meds." The guards helped the hurt human sit up and they opened his mouth. Ellana slowly poured the meds into his mouth stopping every few seconds to make sure he won't choke on it. The human's eyes widened as they saw the cut heal and form into a scar then fade till nothing was there.

Ellana soon found out the human she healed was the prince of the land and was granted a place in the castle as the royal apothecary for the people and king. She spent most of her days helping humans or researching more plants. For the next thousand years, she was happy and lived in the castle and her garden. Then again only after two thousand years she went missing.
