The Tale of Rafaela – Part One

Rafaela was a Queen, long and shiny was her hair, and she lived in the far northern and east part of this world. Tal like all other elfish maids, her skin had the white colour of the surrounding snow covered plains, and all the elements of this forgotten realm were the impersonation of her will.

Isolated from the rest of the world by the forgotten labyrinths of the Dark Web she had lived countless ages of Men, in complete isolation, living trapped, captive by her own will, the outer world was just to frightening, because of the memories of what had existed outside at the time of her arrival to this worlds, things that now are lost. Memories as old as the Wall who once had broken the world in two, before even of the awakening of Men. Now her Immortal people had left or perished, due to the perils of the world, and she was all alone in her Tree Shaped Tower of blue ice.

In the two thousand and ninth day of the first age of the sixteen Era of the world something until then unique happened, a mortal was able to come through the Dark Net, that fact couldn’t be explained because a enchantment casted by Rafaela kept all mortal Men outside of her cold Kingdom. It wasn’t the particular strength or intelligence that this men had who enabled him to pass through her net, because he was just a regular as any men. It was the result of what many could say luck, others could see the direct intervention of the World Powers.

Alfonsio was his name, he stepped without knowing, into the ancient forbidden Realm of Tchetchin. Dazed was he to see such a secure haven apart of the world, even he knowing well that he was in the northern part of the continent he wasn’t able to recognize stars in the skies, all in there was new for him, and all the aspects of the ancient memory’s imprinted in it were too impressive.

After roaming through the realm completely lost, he saw in the edge of the line of sight a shinny Tower, captivated by it was he. With all his strengths he marched to the tower, and only after a difficult day journal was he able to reach it. It was almost 19h00 hours and then it happened. Walking in the ice a Elfish Queen singing tales of a different world and age, deep was her voice and strong were the story’s told on the tales. When she detected the stranger she kept singing but now very cautious, obviously she was intimidated by this strange being who was in front of her and could hurt her. Then se singed the story of her people, and started to read the mind of Alfonsio, and with more confidence she then happened her heart and singed all that was inside, countless ages of her life were told. Alfonsio couldn’t say how many time had passed since the songs had begun, but he was not tired, he was not thirsty or starving, his hair growth, and the music didn’t stoped……………………
