Dear
Diary!
Oh,
dear diary! Today is Valentine's Day .... I've been sitting here for
hours wondering how I can define Valentine's Day for myself ... Is it
really just the day when you celebrate your loved ones? I know a lot
of couples who go out to eat or hunt, exchange cards and give each
other presents .... For me, Valentine's Day is even more than giving
my partner something or spending time with him. For me, Valentine's
Day also means looking back into the past together in order to
remember the beginning of our relationship, friendship or
acquaintance together.
Some
time has now passed since I met the Elf of Dreams - I remember the
first time I saw you - standing in Atlas, I haven't been able to
forget you ever since then ...
I, the little
white-haired elf who has not seen much of this world and was still
green behind her little elf ears - met you. A stately elf who already
has seen and experienced a lot! - Do you remember the beginning my
dear, when you paid no attention to me? I still remember exactly how
big my wish was to draw your attention to me! I thought I would never
make it and unfortunately my inexperience and shyness were of no help
in getting your attention. You, on the other hand, were a
sought-after mercenary - well-built with a lot of experience ... (and
not to forget: your bright blue eyes!). You awakened
my interest from the start - your blue
eyes are a dream - in which I could see our future.
For hours, I wondered: "Is this just a fleeting love affair or is it
the love of my life after all?"
My
darling - do you remember our first real meeting?
We
both got the job together with a group of other mercenaries to free
the instance "Realm of Forgotten Legends" from several
monsters! I still remember exactly how confident and strong you stood
there in front of me! My little healer hands were shaking - I
wondered if it was the fear of the challenge or the excitement I felt
around you? Till today, I haven't found an exact answer to that. The
first shared experience began! So we set out on the journey to do our
job. We were a group of 12 with me and you - a colorful mix of
people, elves and dwarves. We wandered around for a long time
fighting various monsters before we both got into our first
conversation! - How embarrassing this was for me! This detail should
never be written down, but the memories should remain fresh - Our
first conversation was due to my carelessness! I didn't pay attention
to the way and step into a trap! You came back immediately to help me
- unfortunately you were caught in a trap after a short time thanks
to your rescue operation. My thoughts were confused, and I apologized
to you several times. I was so uncomfortable. More hours passed
before you came up to me.
Our
first real conversation was just a typical conversation at the
beginning... like "Hey - How are you?", "Fine and
you?" I didn't want our conversation to end. Your soft voice
with a slight accent drew me even more to you. You piqued my interest
and took my heart by storm - How could I resist someone like you? In
order to keep up the conversation with you, I directed the
conversation to the topic of food (who can resist talking about the
topic food?) - I was lucky! It worked, but in the end, like two
crazy people, we started discussing which cookies are the best. I
felt immediately that something sparked between us in our 3-hour
conversation. It may sound crazy, but this was the beginning of a
love story between you and me.
Afterwards
we wrote letters to each other for weeks and exchanged ideas,
thinking,... - on every imaginable topic! We find out that we have a
lot of common interests, even if we are both from different countries
with different cultures. We started to meet each other and to do
more and more together ... Not only that, but we fell in love and now decided to go a
common path. - It was a little ago now, but not a day goes by
when I don't think of you and how the two of us met.
Today on Valentine's Day we met on the beach of Atlas where we saw each other for the very first time! We spent a very nice romantic day on the beach together with a picnic. The view was wonderful and the water was a comfortable temperature. I am so grateful to you for everything! - Dear diary - I love this elf so much. He changed me and my life.
If you are ever going to read this, I want to thank you for your support, your help ... just for everything. Life is better when you can share it with someone like you. Thank you.
With a lot of love,
Clarie
