Epilogue
Taking the North road from Navelorn, after leaving by the river gate, I
came to the Deep Wood Tavern after many days travel. I had never been this
far from Navelorn before. I have taken upon myself to make a journal of my
travels and the path I have chosen to free myself from the horror that
pursues me.
That third night after I left, I stayed at the Tavern. It was good to
be amongst people after so many months in the cell. I almost started to
sing to entertain them but knew that if anything would bring the notice of
Gallon, it would be my singing.
I still talked to the elves there trying to find a route to take to get
out of Edilar. They laughed at that. I guess it is strange to think of
leaving Edilar but I could not feel safe here. Not yet at least. After the
while I became more relaxed and friendlier. It almost made me forget the
danger I was trying to escape. Finally someone introduced himself and asked
me who I was.
"I am Bella... Um, Mahd," I hesitated not sure. "I am Blue. Just call
me Blue."
"All right, Blue it is," he said with a laugh.
I thought for a second about the chemical used in the enchantment and
then added with a smile,
"Vitriol Blue, I am glad to make your acquaintance."
