The Elves were always peaceful folk.<br />

Friendly to all who crossed their<br />

way. But alas, for the past two<br />

centuries, correspondence and trade<br />

between Men and Elves has fallen.<br />

Anger and hatred has taken place of<br />

friendship and camaraderie. And all<br />

because of one little king. It is to this<br />

king the woman goes, for she carries<br />

a message of great importance. But<br />

that is far from all. In her worn sack<br />

she has two items: one of simple<br />

beauty; the other, an object whose<br />

ability is only to show that beauty.<br />

One, a gift. The other, a curse.<br />

With a guttural roar, he leapt from<br />

the throne's landing to where [the<br />

mage] last stood, but he stopped<br />

short. For in her place lay a worn,<br />

leather satchel. And in it's folds, an<br />

item sparkled. Curiosity replaced his<br />

wrath and he bent to free the object.<br />

A mirror. And before his eyes, a tiny<br />

crack appeared.<br />
