"If I may be honest, you are far too trusting to the elves of human blood. They repay you by speaking ill of you. I know this will surprise you, but both I and Leetah has defended you against them."
*He nodded in approval when he heard her promise.*
"And the last sentence you said, proves that there is still hope for you. Because that is the thinking of a true queen. Setting the needs of her people above herself."

*She laughed, realizing he was right*
"I don't know how that happened to me. And I belive you, and thank you for your defense of me."

*Haldir smiled too.*
"I only do my duty, your majesty. Nothing more."

*She sighed*
"And to think my daughter will have to grow up in this. Poor dear, it'll be a miracle if she survives."

*Haldir nodded. Belonging to the upper aristocracy he knew well the dangers a powerful person can meet. He quoted something he had read somewhere.*
"Canst thou, O partial sleep, give thy repose To the wet sea-boy in an hour so rude, And in the calmest and most stillest night, With all appliances and means to boot, Deny it to a king? Then happy low, lie down! Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown."

*She smiled sadly at his words*
"I'm not used to this life- mmaybe I never will be."
*Though she didn't know it, an unconscious decision was being made. A hungry woman, Nellie Lovett had always wanted love. She had it now, and wanted more. Unwilling to betray her husband, her mind had found the only addition possible- her people. And her subconscious had decided to earn their love honestly.*

*Haldir looked at her. His Elven wisdom told him that her mind was working, and he didn't want to interrupt whatever she was thinking. So he chose his next word carefully.*
"Living on the top of society is never easy. Any moment the foundation under you may crumble and fall. All you can do, is to hope that what you do to serve your country will suffice for the people who live there."

Tyldak again urged Dewshine to hold tightly to his neck and he quickly left the portal of his home with her hanging tightly to him. There was no joy in his flight this time, just the urgent need of Recognition, and it flooded his mind, spilled over into hers.
Over the trees they went, until he spotted a break in the canopy that would allow him to land and they swooped down quickly into the cool, dense cover of this deep part of the forest, where he again set her on her feet and stood apart from her a moment to catch his breath.

*Dewshine waited patiently for him to catch his breath. She had never done this before and felt a bit nervous. Afraid about what was going to happen. Hoping that nobody would see them. She was still a very young girl.*

Unable to be apart from her now for more than a few moments, he stepped forward and drew her close again, the "thumb" of one wing stroking over her cheek while the long "fingers" of his other wing pressed to her back.
Are you afraid, Lree?

*She came closer to him, closing her eyes as she felt his touch against her soft skin. Her heart beated faster, and her tiny body was trembling.*
Yes.... Be gentle with me....

I cannot hurt you. Do not be afraid. Recognition will guide you--and I will help.
He granted her a small smile and drew her close, pushing his chest out a bit to invite her small hands to touch him.

I know you can't hurt me now. But how will you be with me afterwards? Will you despise me? Or mock me? That would hurt me more than anything....
*She gave him a small, shivering smile and came closer to him. She placed her tiny hand on his chest and looked up at him. She looked deeply into his eyes, trying to catch a glimpse of his soul.*

She would see the High One within him, if she looked for him, as if overlaid on top of his rather ugly bird-elf features.
After does not matter at the moment, Lree. You will bear my cub, that is what is important.
Realizing she wasn't exactly sure of what what happened, he leaned down, having to bend quite low, to grant her a small kiss on her clear brow.

*Dewshine trembled as he kissed her. She wrapped her arms around his neck as she kissed him back, almost chastely.*
I am proud of being chosen to bear your cub.
