[Elizabeth Elindel]

"Perhaps it has been the theme all my life of being left out." Elizabeth said. "So many people have left me alone so many." Inwardly, she thought 'and perhaps when one did ask for my companionship, I feared being rejected, so I nearly turned him away.'

The noise swirled around her, she seemed unable to block it out. The air was very warm, but still, she shivered, and drew her vail tighter around her face, as though she wanted no one else to see beneath it. The food had revived her, and she felt better, but Fin's request had startled her. But then, again, he was a kindred elf. Did all elves act this way towards each other? She was still young, even by their own reckoning, and she had never learned.

The decisions tugged at her mind. At length, she said "I will stay the night, in the morning I will decide what I will do."
