Chapter 143: To Make It Official
I find comfort in singing, learning the language of the lyrics so that I would join in and the first day I sang in our language, I forgot even my pain existed and just let myself get lost in the tone and rhythm, this was one of the favorite things and the only thing I looked interests in aside from riding with Star, it brought a little peace to my heart.
I forget the audience was even there, the others smiling at me and staring in awe, but I don’t mind them, I don’t mind their eyes, I just let the vocalizing take me like my soul was being lifted with every peak of my voice. But each time I stopped singing a tear would fall from my eye and I’m soon reminded of the hollow feeling within me.
Dreading into me like a harsh wave and I don’t hear their applause or Aldon’s arms around me, saying something nonexistent. It’s just me and my silent pain and the hollow feeling that kept going deeper and deeper.
Aldon turned me gently to face him and used his thumb to wipe my tears and I looked up to him.
"You sang wonderfully, Aveline. Your people love it"

"These are beautiful, your highness," Abina said to me, she was one of the elves who was oddly getting close to me. She was a beauty endowed with tan skin and her hair was the darkest I have ever seen, midnight I would call it and her eyes were the softest hazels that offend reminded me of Severus’,
She was the one who taught me to sing, and her voice was very angelic. I always admire her singing, it brought an indescribable feeling to one’s soul. I cried the first time I heard her sing.
I turned to the curve-shaped leaf given to me by one of the forest elves to examine. "It’s beautiful, what is it," I asked the forest elf and he smiled at me.
"It’s a leaf from a new tree growing, I thought I might show you so that you would bless it upon the new awakening"
"Oh," I made a sound dumbfounded.
