There was this reverberating feeling inside of my chest. Like an acknowledgment. Then my gaze darted around as I processed that information. Like my entire being knew that what I had just learned was the truth.

"This is why everyone warned your mother not to fall for a human. Nobody expected his betrayal of course, but everyone stopped Hestia because elves live far longer than humans and eventually she was in for a heartbreak. Although she lost her mind because she was betrayed." She stepped closer, "Natural death wouldn't have been that bad as compared to the betrayal she got."

I blinked slowly as the reality of the situation took its place inside my mind.

"For life?" I asked

"Yes," She answered, "For life,"

I smiled. A feeling of elation going through my body, "That's good." I said, "I like the sound of that."
