Cry to me oh Fair Elven Lady.steemCreated with Sketch.

Over the hills into the far distance she runs..She runs as if she has invisible wings.. Her feet barely touch the ground..
She silently runs through the thick wooded surroundings..
Her cloak making no more sound, than an owl swooping upon her prey..
Her pointed ears catch the sound of the hunters zeroing in..
The rain thickens and becomes heavy..hitting the ground hard... She lost them.. And their scent..

She clutches her swollen belly and leans against a tree.. Breathing hard, she climbs a tree.. She hears the dogs... Jumping tree to tree, she struggles away.. Sobbing to herself.. Remembering some of the terrors that ensued.. Thinking to herself... "This baby must live.. I too must live.." she pushes herself forward.. To the very limit...

Finally.. She made her destination after hours of heavy rain, and jumping through trees.. She feels a twinge of pain... Trying hard not to scream in agony.. She collapses and bites her hand... Hard.. The hunters had given up... She was almost to her destination.. Just push it through.. Just one more field.. And we will be safe..

Another twinge of pain... This time was harder to hold the screaming agony in.. She bit and broke the skin..she whistled.. Hoping the grand mare would hear her.. And picked herself up she tried to move and was brought to the ground in more pain..

The grand mare galloped with the sounds of wind chimes chiming as her hooves touched the ground.. Effortlessly floating as she galloped smoothly.. She crouched down next to the elven lady and assisted her..

She galloped on top of the smell of the wild flowers and brought the elven lady to the elder's cave.. The water had broken as she gradually dismounted.. The time was now..

This was the first time the elven lady had felt fear before... She hobbled with the assistance of the mare, delivering the newest life alone...

The mare stayed close.. Guarding her as she delivered her offspring in secrecy.. Using her power of illusion to silence the screams of pain, and nuzzling away the tears of motherhood streaming from the elven lady's eyes..

With the last push, a new elven lady was born into this world... The new mother sobbed with pride in her eyes.. She stroked the new lady elf's hair line and cried to herself... She knew that this beautiful new life had to stay protected and hidden..

Seven days passed by... There were footsteps approaching... The mare flared her nostrils and bared her teeth, preparing her horn for attack... When a voice of love and familiarity revealed itself..

The new mother heard the voice of her husband.. The elven lord limped into the room.. Hands in the air like he were at gun point.. The mare lowered he guard and checked for followers..

They embraced each other and kissed for the first time in over a moon.. They both held their legacy in their arms together and talked about the events that lead up to this moment..

They laughed together and cried together.. In the end, everyone was happy.
