The Path of Destiny - The Blue Moon Ch. 1

This is the first part of this story. I decidet to add new chapters every Monday and I hope you´ll enjoy reading it :D

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It was beginning of the summer and the forest was waking up to a beautiful and sunny day. Birds were singing, roes were jumping on glades and elves were preparing for celebration. This celebration takes place once in twenty years. That´s why everyone pays it a lot of attention. Well… everyone except Eunis. She has no idea what they were preparing. She asked almost everyone. But they said her to don´t interrupt.

“Would someone finally tell me what´s going on?!” No response. She knelt under big old tree. No one bother to even look at her. But then she heard kind voice.

“We are preparing the celebration of the Blue Moon. It will be in few days.” Eunis twitch. There was a young elf. He has short blond hair and emerald green eyes. His smile was honestly kind. He wears short sleeved linen shirt.

He noticed that she twitched and said: “Sorry I don´t want to startle you. My name is Arian.” He also offered her a hand and helps her get up.

“That´s ok. I am Eunis and thank. Everyone is apparently busy. By the way… what is this celebration about?”

“You seem to be new here. I didn´t see you in the village before.”

“Something like that. I live here for ten years but I don´t go out so often so we haven´t met before.”

“Oh… That quite explains it. Never mind… This celebration takes place once in twenty years. That´s when the blue moon shows up on the night sky. Last time it was almost thousand years ago. Most of us know about it just from stories and legends. It is very important. In the middle of glade we build big sacrificial altar. But don´t worry. We don´t sacrifice animals or anything like this. The sacrifice is the hard work we put to the preparation for the celebration. This all is for protection of our forest and village.” he said overly importantly.

“This evening we will practice some dances for the ceremony. These are pretty long and difficult so kids learn them since they are six. Everyone dance. Just some elves plays on instruments. Wanna come?”

“I would love to, really, but nobody teach me how to dance. I think will just stand aside and watch as not to obstruct.” she said sadly.

“I can teach you.” Arian said encouragingly. “I don´t want to brag, but I am perfect dancer and excellent teacher.”

“That would be nice, but you said kids learn them since six… How can I learn it in few days?” she said disbelievingly.

“Trust me… You´ll do great. I bet you can learn them in no time.” Arian said with bright smile.

Arian was right. It wasn´t that hard and he was really good teacher. It doesn´t even began to get dark and Eunis can dance almost half of the first dance.

“See? I told you. Tomorrow you´ll know to dance all of them.”

“You are really amazing. How long it takes you to learn? I suppose about five years. You are certainly the best dancer of all.”

“Firstly, I learned it when I was fourteen, so it´s three years. Secondly, you are probably right. I might be the best.” said Arian proudly and then laughing fell to the ground. He lay down on his back and watched the clouds floating in the sky.

“Look, Eunis. This one looks like deer. Come take a look.” he said pointing somewhere in the sky. She lay beside him.

“Yeah. You are right. It looks proud.” She looked at him attentively. It looks like it wants to tall her something, but it can´t. It was just cloud that slowly began to fade.

“DID YOU SEE THAT?! That deer just winked at me!” she shouted.

“Winked? I don´t think so. It´s just a cloud.” he pointed to the sky.

“Well… was. It´s gone now. Maybe you are tired. We´ve had been dancing almost all day. And it´s getting dark. We probably should be going home. Tomorrow, early in the morning, the altar will be placed on the glade. And it would be shame to miss it.” Arian said and escorted her to the village.

“Thank you for everything. I really enjoyed this day. I can´t wait for tomorrow.”

“Me too. I´ll come to get you. You won´t believe your eyes when you see it. I heard it is breathtaking.” He led her to a crossroads.

“See ya tomorrow, Eunis.”

“Good night, Arian.”

Eunis came home excited. She didn´t even notice the noncomprehending expression of her nanny. Erin had to grab her by the arm.

“Where were you so long?”

Eunis pulled away and said with a smile: “I was preparing for the celebration of the Blue moon.” and went to her room. She untwists her braid and spread her auburn hair on the pillow. She was so tired after that dance that she immediately fell asleep.

The stories

My main story is called The Path of Destiny. It´s pretty long fantasy story where main characters are elves and other incredible creatures. I started to write about two years ago and I hope I´ll finish it soon. But it is still on-going story. I see it like some kind of saga with at least two parts. This first is called The Blue Moon. I also plan to post some ilustrations of characters and interesting parts. And if you would like my story you can also suggest how it could be and what would you want to happen next. Any ideas are welcome :D

Other stories aren´t so long. It´s usually my school work. Their genre is also everytime different, but I like to write something dramatic, so it could be even thriller. I hope you will like it :D

And as I said... your doors are wide open...

Heya!

My name is Alchemy and I am teenage girl on high school. I study chemistry and I like it. It´s always funny... well... mostly. All those experiments... it is very exciting :D I also love animals ( CATS <3 ) and books. That´s the main reason of this page. I made it so I can share my interest in books and writting. I am working on one pretty long story, but sometimes I write something shorter to ease my mind. And I decided to share my thoughts with all of you :D My language is not english so it will take some time to translate it... sorry for possible mistakes. Hope you understand :-)

Also if you have some interisting stories, I´ll be really glad if you share it with me and others. The world of fantasy is eternal and everyone can be good writer. At least it is really fun to make our own world and watch the fate of main heroes.

So.... what do you say? Are you with me?
