Upon waking up, I rubbed my eyes and scratched the back of my head, then I look around. Around me was a forest of large trees with violet colored trunks surrounded by groups of blue fireflies, and the forest seems, quiet making me feel a slight level of fear. Still, it is undeniable that the environment here is much more different than the place where I was born, I lived, and where I grew up for seventeen years.
"You know what, was it okay for a teenage boy to be frightened?" I asked Lester.
"Are you joking, kid? Every person in the world have their own fears. You are a coward if you denied that thing. True men knows fear, true cowards deny that. Why did you ask?" he answered while laughing and smiling in front of me.
"To be honest, this forest looks creepy, undeniably frightening." I said.
We both sit under a large tree, and the groups of the blue fireflies that was surrounding it avoided us. To my great surprise, I saw a brown colored papyrus behind me... Of course, Lester didn't see it because he closed his eyes right after sitting beside me. Okay. I opened the folded papyrus, I saw a human standard language writing on it.
Whoever wrote this thing sure knows how to speak in a language familiar to us humans
The penmanship is beautiful, written cursively from left to right, left to right. After a few observations, I started reading it carefully.
My name is Edrail Endalier, I am a 17 year old elven lady and I am on an important mission in which the Elven Empress herself ordered me, I have no right to defy the order because she personally adopted and trained me, she then make me one of her enforcers at the age of 13. And now, I am one of her elite mercenaries. I cannot write in this journal the mission that I will accomplish because it's great importance and great risks.
People may think that I am just a tedious woman, but when the Arcane Age opened, warring kingdoms began, death duels and many civil wars become common. For me, this period is the most bloody, all magics have become powerful in this period, making many creatures corrupted and have great lust for power. I wish I could be successful in order to bring peace around the world..... so I may have a normal life. A normal life that a normal teenager should have. I want to admit, yes, I really want adventure. I was seeking for it, but instead, adventure found me.
Woah. I can't believe that this poem is written by an elf! Not only that, she wrote it in a language similar to the human language! Woah. I wish I could meet the person who wrote this. I wish I could personally see Edrail Endalier.
I suddenly hear footsteps nearby, those footsteps were a bit silent. Probably walking stealthily. Then, an unpleasant voice suddenly burst... The voice comes behind this large tree.
