Chapter 3: Tea with the Goddess
After I had calmed the goddess from her depressed state, she asked me to go with her.
As I was sleeping in one of the trees in her realm, which were there for the deceased elves to rest peacefully, we left the tree.
I could see her realm for the first time. It was a large meadow covered with colorful flowers of all kinds.
There were also many tall trees in their realm, similar to the one we had just left.
However, one tree stood out due to its enormous size compared to the others.
The tree was majestic and its top reached up to the blue sky as we approached it and saw an azure blue lake shimmering in the sunlight. Two artfully crafted wooden chairs welcomed me.

She beckoned me to sit down. After taking a seat, I looked at my goddess, who was still moist in her eyes. With a sad look on her face, she opened her mouth to speak.
"Beloved, I'm terribly sorry that after all I've done and all you've been through, I have to ask for your help once again. My children are on the brink of extinction as the other races wage war against them once more, a hundred years after your fall, when they were betrayed by the Drows, who spread the news of your death."
When I heard her ask me for help again, I was a little confused. Why was she asking me for help when she could just command me like she always did? But I didn't think anything of it.
I stood up quickly, went down on one knee and put my fist on my just above my heart.
"I will obey your command, my goddess. I will serve you once again and protect the elves, your creation."
As I knelt there and looked into her eyes, she began to cry. Slowly, she reached for my cheek and began to stroke it lovingly.
"You are my creation, just like the others. You don't have to see yourself as my tool. You are now a living being with a soul and feelings. You are no longer the elven guardian, beloved. You are now simply an elf like the others."
Just as she said that I was an elf like the others, something strange happened that had never happened before. I frowned deeply.
A strange warmth spread through my heart and traveled through my body, but this feeling only lasted a moment. I couldn't really understand it, as I only had fleeting impressions of this warmth.
"What happened, my love? You look confused" the goddess said to me as she placed my head between her heavenly bosom and stroked my hair lovingly.
"I don't know, my goddess. When you said that I am also an elf, a strange warmth emanated from my heart and spread throughout my body, but it only lasted a moment..."
"You experienced an emotion, beloved. You were just happy to belong somewhere, because you only ever saw yourself as a tool, a puppet. Even though you were called an elf, you never saw yourself as such. But after you were able to feel emotions over time, you saw yourself as an elf, just as you always had been. Only no one ever admitted it, so you never realized it."
Emotions are really complicated. The more I listened to my goddess, the more confused I became.
So I just stayed lying on my goddess's soft bosom while she stroked my hair.
I don't know how much time had passed, but I diverted my attention from my thoughts to my goddess when I heard her soft sigh.
"Beloved, I wish to spend eternity in your embrace, but I must inform you of what happened in the realm after your fall. "
After hearing what she said, I reluctantly pull myself from her warm bosom and sat back down on my seat to give her my full attention.
"Beloved, right after you fell, the Drow guardian my twin sister created for her children also fell asleep. But before you ask, no, she didn't die. You were unique among all the guardians because you always stayed awake. Unlike other guardians, who only wake up when their race is threatened with extinction or when they're forcibly awakened by their god/goddess or the high priests of their race."
Her face showed great hatred and sadness.
She hated them because they were the cause of her children's suffering, but she was also heartbroken because they were the drow goddesses children.
"The only other race that able to found out of your fall were the Drow. They kept this a secret for about 100 years before they betrayed elves because of their jealousy and hatred. For the entire realm considered them a lesser version of my children. When they found out about your fall, they saw it as a chance to prove to the whole empire that they were not inferior to the elves, but equal or even superior. So they sold the information about your fall to other races. At first no one believed them, only the humans acted on it because their greed for elven riches and their hatred of them. This led to a war between elves and humans that lasted for several years until other races such as dragons, orcs and demons joined the conflict."
I watched my goddess as her shoulders slumped and her eyes lost their color while she told me about the elves... no, the great downfall of my kin and it made my blood boil. Seeing her like that, I clenched my fist so tightly that it turned pale and blood dripped from my hand.
"They slaughtered my children mercilessly and treated them like wild animals. They even dared to enslave them. But after a few years, the dragons declared the war over because the elves were too weak and impoverished to waste their time any longer. It was meaningless to them because the elves were a dying race with no riches. This caused other races that join the war, disband too and focus on their own problems instead of wasting their time with the nearly extinct elves."
Suddenly her body began to shake and her eyes lost their color, showing an even greater hatred than when she spoke about Drows. In anger, she lost control of her boundless power and shook the entire realm.
"But those damn humans and orcs and their damn god! Aargh... those ugly, unsightly, brutal, fucking abominations!"
She cursed them for a few more minutes before trying to calm herself by taking deep breaths.
"Oh dear, how unsightly of me."
She gave me an embarrassed smile as she calmed herself down,but her hatred was still visible in her eyes.
"After the war was over, the humans didn't stop attacking the elves and hunting them everywhere.because the human god Balthazar found the suffering of the elves very entertaining. He ordered the monsters called humans to show no mercy and be even more ruthless, and they obeyed him wholeheartedly, every single one of them. They were able to make other races hunt elves too, like those vile, barbaric orcs."
When she had finished her words, she stood up from her seat and signaled me to do the same.
I got up from my seat and wanted to kneel down, but she stopped me.
She just looked into my eyes as hers lit up again, which had disappeared when she told me about the downfall of my kin.
Now they shone brighter than ever, and she smiled radiantly for the first time since we had met.
"Beloved, 10,000 years have passed since your fall, my children have suffered far too long and far too much. But with you, it will finally come to an end and the age of the elves will come again... I want only one thing from you: that you kill all your enemies in the most brutal way. Never show mercy, even if they are innocent, for their ancestors have committed enough crimes."
Her words were full of hatred and passion after 10,000 years of watching her children suffer.
As I listened to the words of my goddess, I felt my body heat up. My heart began to beat faster as I imagined the most brutal ways to slaughter the enemies of my clan.
Although I have not witnessed their suffering for 10,000 years, I have protected them for eons and sacrificed myself so that they could thrive in peace and prosperity, only for others to snatch them from my kin.As my goddess watched me, she sensed that my hatred matched hers.
"You will be reborn as the only son of the last Elven Queen. This time you will rule, not serve. You will never serve, for you are my equal, my beloved, my eternal love, my husband."
She smiled, brought her face closer to me and kissed my lips full of passion and love.
