B2ME Day 30 - Leaving or Returning Home by Erulisse

Chapter 1

Homecoming (A true drabble)

Helyanwë’s re-embodiment was marked by doorways: Mandos, to Lorien, to the waiting, welcoming arms of her mother. Over time her paints and pens lost their luster and the urge to craft came upon her.

Her feet walked on familiar paths, turning into a courtyard seen in her memories and through hopeful tears. Falling onto her knees with her bowed head touching the paving stones, her voice gained strength.

“My Lord, I have returned home.”

As Lord Aulë pulled her up, embraced her, and kissed her forehead, his strong voice was strangely gentle.

“Welcome home, child. Your workshop is awaiting you.”
