Somewhere in Europe a long time ago

????: Move it human!

Inside of what looked like a large palace made simply out of wood and plants, two tall pale man with long ears and pointed tips were seen ordering a small child with short pale orange hair to move faster by pushing the rope tied to his wrists.

The child looked nothing alike to the persons around him.

Child: Where are you taking me?

The child fearfully asked, not knowing what to expect after the rough treatment he was getting from the people dragging him.

Guard: His majesty asked for your presence. You should be gratefull human.

From what the child was dressed in, he was definetly not someone of a high class so that took him by surprise.

Child: A King wants to see me? Why would someone like that ask for me of all people?

Guard: If you decide to shut that mouth of yours and focus on moving your feet then we'll both know the answer soon enough. 

Child: I can't help it, my steps are smaller then yours since I'm not as tall as you.

The child innocently said getting a tug on the rope tied to his wrists as a reward for it, the force almost making him lose his balance and fall.

Guard: Another reason for you to pick up your step then. (whisper) Good gracious. I know his majesty is becoming desperate, but to think he would actually think of using humans. Just what is he thinking?

The guard's distaste for the child's race was obvious and he made no effort in hiding it whatsoever. The same could be seen all around the small human and in the eyes of every person he and the guard passed by, the only difference being that those only spared him  a small glance before returning to what they were doing.

A couple more minutes and constant tugging of his restrains and they both reached the outside. While they were now of the building, they were still inside of the palace's grounds, more specificaly, in it's garden.

The child looked stunned at the all plants and creatures flying around it with a childish surprise. His eyes were now wide open and his mouth too. All of them looked so similar, but at the same time so different from the ones he had seen over his short life and all looked fascinating to him.

Soon, both him and the guards that took him there stopped, bringing him back to reallity.  

In front of him, seated in a beautifully carved wooden throne, was another pale man with long ears and pointed tips staring at him with a serious gaze. This one seemed much older with a long white beard and equaly long and white hair. The crown on top of his head and gold jewelry that he had on him was the proff he needed to understand that he was in the presence of the King.

Another person was seated next to him, a young girl with the same set of features that he was used to see from these people by now. She was gorgeous and with her long green hair and emerald eyes, she made the the child think that he was in the presence of mother nature herself. To him that girl looked like a real goddess.

 To him that girl looked like a real goddess
