The Weight Removed, A Happiness Found

How did it happen so thoroughly and without my realization of the transformation from within my heart? There was no notice given, no advancements of purpose nor reasons laid upon my heart and mind before the leap of my transformation happened. Joy and warmth replaced sorrow and grief, but how could this have been so silently and benevolently laid upon me without the tortured battle that should have raged within me? The encounter must not have been one of a chance meeting, but rather, I suppose, an arranged event guided by the Fates of benevolence and insight. I tried to busy myself in the crafts, learning the values of growing crops and cooking as well as trying to be distracted from my grief by attempts at tailoring but those did only a small assuage to  the forlorn and bereft maiden that I seemed to be resigned to. She spoke with a softness and yet with authority and firmness of purpose., Her aura gave me  a solace as she greeted me and my spirit began to rise. Her warm smile and gentle eyes soothed my troubles and the dull weight within me disappeared as Lady Vivienwyne spoke, engaging me in conversation whilst at the same time, with gentle aura and knowing smile, soothed my troubles and invited me into her kinship family! My heritage boasts of no nobility nor does my house, although bereft of occupancy now save for myself, offer little more than the meager trappings of shelter. She knew, without my saying....somehow she knew!! Her love of creatures, of those with fur, feather or fins became our point of conversation as I realized that this wonderful, sweet maiden held protection of those creatures within her very soul and marrow,somehow I sensed that she saw within my own soul the sameness of purpose from me, though I had pushed those feelings deep inside,selfishly giving in to grief for the loss of my parents. Unseen arms gently hugged me as the warmth of her presence overwashed me and lifted the stone of sorrow from within. Lady Vivienwyne gave me a new family of kinsmen and kinswomen to be a part of, to rejoice and embrace.Life has returned to my heart and I shall try to be worthy of her nature and hold firmly to my new family, the family that is known as Keepers of Lothlorien's Flame! The Fates have been kind to this undeserving elf maiden and I am happy beyond words.......
