Elven Quests

10.

I looked over as Gron walked over to my door. "Well, see ya later Ephia." He sighed. I smiled. "Yup, see ya in a little bit Gron." I replied. He nodded and left the room. That was nerve racking enough just talking to him other that Slynaé embarrassing me. Great way to start the day.

I looked at my many trinkets that sat on a shelf that I hadn't noticed before. Maybe it was just put up. I walked softly against the carpet to it and saw there was a wooden box, a clay vase that held a ruby red flower, and some small dolls. I grasped the boz in my hands. It was no bigger that my two palms and it had a weird aura coming off it. Like a melancholy feeling.

I undid the small copper clasp to it and saw some jewelry in it. But what stuck my fancy was that there was a locket necklace that had a blue tear drop saffron in the middle. And little dents where it looked like gems were missing from. Weird. Why would someone give me a broken necklace. I clasped the chain on my neck and examined the vase a bit more in detail.

It had a polished feel and look to it I noticed. It was a nice tan to it and had a symbol on it. I turned it over and over in my hands. I set the flower that was in it on my shelf and saw on the insides was a note, and a little box. This now just got very creepy. I varied the vase back to my bed and set it down. I went to my closet and looked for a different dress that I could ware.

I saw there was one that was hanging up that had a flowing touch to it and saw there was another that had Ella or should I say Ephia written all over it. It had a stunning look but it did not show a lot of skin to be honest. I took the dress off of the racks and looked at it more in depth. It had a princess feel, but it wasn't to... overpowering. I took off my clothes and put on the dress.

It glided across the floor with ease, but my feet didn't trip over the lace or satin. When I got out of my closet and looked at my self in the mirror, I had forgotten about the vase. The vase! I went back to my bed and emptied the contents. The note can sprawling out first, and then the box came with a thump on the bed last.
