Thoughts Troubling The Mind

[Elfen_ 232]

Upon the sandy beach in Cerulin, stands a mali'ame. He is staring out into the ocean with his deep emerald colored eyes as the tides rise and fall. His somewhat long, tangled brown hair gently blows in the breeze along with the leaves, flowers and tall grass behind him. Nature is beauty, peace to be had... on the outside. The peaceful surroundings allow this mali'ame thoughts to flow, to think about anything and everything. His thoughts escape his brain through the mouth, spoken.

 

"Much has changed, aye. Changes happen all time. I know this. Yet, it can be troublesome for someone such as me. A long life such as mine shouldn't have as much change as it has."

 

The mali'ame lets in a deep breathe and exhales. He absorbs the smell of the combined ocean and forest bringing even more peace. He crosses his arms in front of him and watches the waves. Freedom.

 

"It seems that nothing is right with my kind. We faced so much, many trials. As it is apart of life, but this time maybe one too many times have we faced troubling times."

 

He pauses momentarily as he looks up and down the peaceful beach, taking his eyes of the ocean. Nature is beautiful as usual. His attention returns to the ocean as if he has something to look at or is looking for something.

 

"It comes down to three things, I would guess. Ourselves, Oren and our relations, the mali'aheral. These would be the reasons we have gone through what we have, the troubles we have been given. But, the most important one of the three would have to be us. We cannot blame anyone but ourselves in the end. There are always opinions. Always. Regardless of any outside force. We can look at the other two who have or had been problematic. We can say that our brothers pushed us away even though they took us in because we asked. We didn't like how they ran things for that is their way and not ours. But we.. we put ourselves there. We did. And Oren? Well, Oren has always been a thorn in the side. We may have never actually be able to fight back but, why submit to them after all this time. Our long lives compared to their short lives. Humans change so much. Aye."

 

He pauses again so that he may regather his thoughts. He might have talked non-sense or in circles. Standing a long period of time as brought strain to his legs. Is this old elf getting weak or has much time passed to cause this strain? Most likely and hopefully the latter. As much as he loves the ocean and what is it, his eyes grow restless from looking upon it for so long. He moves to sit and he does but, shortly he just lays down. He now looks at the vast sky. It is much like the sea, aye, but obviously it is up and not horizontal. He sighs and takes another deep breathe.

 

"Aye...aye... Sad is what it is. Sad sight to see where WE put OURSELVES. So easy to cast the blame upon another. Oren this, Oren that. Oren is the reason. Aye. But, nay, I say. Aye, they have been such a pain and still are. Sure, they wanted genocide... maybe not all but, for now I think I'll just leave that as is...."

 

The sky, surely shows the time has passed. Indeed. He probably been out here on this beach since morning. Though he was having fun before, enjoying the beach in another way. As thinking his thoughts are another enjoyable thing to do upon this beach. It was about midday when he just stopped and started looking out to sea. Now, the sky has gone from the light blue is was to a pinkish sky. The sun must be setting now. The evening is just as or even more quiet and peaceful than the afternoon.

 

"I may not have all the facts but, I believe I am not far from truth. Aye. Genocide. Agreeable that is is no laughing matter and as a race we should have tread carefully and what we would do about it. Maybe another option was to do nothing and just continuously get slaughtered. And maybe there was another way to get away or to avoid it, just how I do not know at this time... perhaps I could think of something later. Besides that, there is the option we had chosen. To submit. To become apart of Oren. To follow Oren law, to not be allowed all the freedom that WE as a EQUAL race deserve. It is sad, aye. By allowing Oren control, we allowed ourselves be nothing. Nothing great. We have shrunken ourselves to a small form, aye. What is it to be alive if we cannot be ourselves. The best we can be. Free and able to determine the next best course of action for ourselves... We possible can do that.. All we need is the leaders that will lead our races to success. And we don't need to domination to achieve it.... This be saddening, aye. To become nothing but, whispers in the wind or even less with only a handful of us to retell the days of old when we elves were at our peak and what we can accomplish. I... myself included."

 

He stops and shakes his head as much as one can when laying down in sand.

 

"We can only blame ourselves for what we are now and no one else can help us. Only we can changed our ways and find the right path again. Maybe soon...would be a good time start. How soon? I doesn't know. Only the the sun and moon cycles will tell. It will tell us when the time has come. Though to see when, requires to see nature. I will keep an eye out. I will help us make to the right path. I will make a right from the wrong of me not being side by side with my brothers and sisters through these troubling times...."

 

At last, the night as fallen. The moon and stars shine brightly. Ol' Glee gets up. He looks at the ocean and the nighttime sky once more before heading back into the forest.

 

((OOC: Yo all, I haven't written in a long time or really have done much role-play. Not many know me probably partly because I just get on much and I had changed my MC name. And the reason I don't get on much is because minecraft burn out. I've been playing since 2010.A long time in my opinion and please don't say you have been around longer. If you have that's great but, that's not the point.

Anyhow, this is the first time I think I written something decent in a long time so, I probably have tons of grammar mistakes. I will look out for them myself as I re-read this when I can/want to. And if you want you can criticize and point out mistakes. I would love some help to get better and get back into the swing of things....Also it may seem jumbled and everything and one-sided but, that's how thoughts are in my opinion.... Uhh that's all I have to say for now.))

"No one who hasn't poured time, effort and soul into trying to lead the elves deserves the right to spout public drivel like this.

Unless you're willing to make the sacrifice of your own sanity and any semblance of personal life to lead this nation, idealist words are less than nothing, in fact, they are insulting."

"There once was a creature, wise and strong, but then it got a cut. Just a small cut, nothing to this majestic creature, but wounds have an awful way of festering. First the paw, then the leg, and then the whole bottom half became crippled from this horrid disease. Sadly this disgusting infection kept spreading, straight to the head it went. That poor creature, that poor feeble creature... It still hasn't recovered", an elfess says to her two children, "Don't fret about this creature though my lovelies, I intend to show you how to deal with cuts and sicknesses of all kinds. I never want you to be like that creature"
