A Story by Alexander's Books
This is 1 out of a set of 3 stories I've written or will write, based off D&D I have this first Myth of The Moon elf with a plaintext version below hope you enjoy!
The Moon Elf.
|
There was once a young Elf.
|
He would often go out to stare at the Moon.
|
Its beauty enriched Him with its splendor.
|
Hed sit out there for hours each night
talking with the Moon.
|
Theyd talk and talk for hours on all things
for the young Elf didn’t have any family the Moon became family
to Him.
|
The Moon as many would know is a kind
beautiful orb in the sky and it treated the bot with kindness
listening and talking to the Elf all night and only stopping when
it fell to welcome the morning Sun.
|
One night the young Elf talked to the Moon
as He did every night keeping Her company. However the night was
coming to a close and the Moon was about to set as it did everyday
the young Moon said goodnight to the Elf.
|
IIt is time to say goodnight as the morning
rises and I must once again leave from your horizon to the next,
but as I go I wish to stay with you. For I have no one like you on
the other horizon of the world, I have no one to talk to like you
and it is lonely there as no one in that place appreciates me or
wants to talk. Alas I must leave to join them despite their
ungrateful nature as with the pact I and the Sun made when the
Urania began.
|
For you see when the Urania began I, the
Sun, and the Stars where the only ones and we moved across the
Urania together as we loved one another and we scattered the Earth
with our rays and it was in overload from our light and nothing
could grow while we did that. So one day the Sun came to me and
She said: iThe world can not live as we pelt them with our light
together we must divvy up the work so the the Earth can grow. We
may not share the horizon again for the sake of the world.i I
became very sad because I loved the Sun very much, but I knew She
was right and the world could not survive if continued to live
together as we did. So we had to split up but before we did we
came together for one final kiss before we parted, and the sky
became dark and dim in the middle of the day. Then we parted and
for the last thousand years I have done as She said and I and the
Stars have not met in the Sun since that time except for a few
times when I’m late on my cue I have been faithfully serving
Her. The world has prospered as a result and it has brought about
itself to you and as you stand here I can’t help but feel it has
been worth it for the chance to bring about you. However due to
that every morning I must depart from you and the good country and
go away I wish I hadn’t but I must.
|
The young Elf thought about what the Moon
said He was a good friend of the Moon and didn’t like seeing Her
sad and lonely like this, He knew that if He were to come with Her
He would never see the Sun again, but as He looked upon his friend
He realize that nothing was more important to Him than Her so He
said: II want to come with you. I want to join you on the Moon so
that I can be with you forever and keep you company so you won’t
be lonely or sad again,I
|
The Moon looked upon the young Elf with
unspeakable gratitude but also a little sadness for attempting to
take Him from his home and She said to Him: II am sorry but there
is no way I could separate you from your lovely planet the Earth
deserves you more than I you’d be much happier there.I But said
the Elf: INo I will not be happy again knowing that you are sad
Please take me with you so that I can prevent you from feeling bad
again.I The Moon was touched by the young Elfs kindness and in
glorious splendor a beautiful lady who’s beauty was never and
has never been seen again came down to meet with the Elf, She
said: IThis is choice that you want to make then make it but know
if you come with me you may never leave as the Moon will keep you
trapped there forever, never again will you see the beautiful Sun
or walk on the Earth again forever more will you be confined to my
land, You will have to stay there forever and talk with me with no
escape for not even I may leave the MoonI She says and She points
to the bit of Moon She herself are standing on IYou will forever
be stuck there with me is that really what you want?I and the Elf
said to Her: IYes this is all I’ve ever wanted since I first saw
you was to be with you forever. Oh Moon, adopt me in your rays and
make me your own, for you are the only family to me.I and the Moon
calmly said to the Elf IThen that is how it shall beI and She sent
down another piece of the Moon which the Elf stepped on and was
carried to the Moon as well.
|
Forever more they live talking and chatting
and neither were alone again, all who find themselves lonely
without family can reach out to the Moon and Her Elf and She will
be there to adopt them as Her own. To this day it is said that you
can see the children of the Moon scattering around the planet and
playing if you watch very close and look very deep.
