Chapter 1 - First Born Love

Rising, he glanced at the prostrate forms surrounding him.  He looked down at himself.  Nude, he marvelled at the beauty of his body, noticing those around him were of like perfection.  

Wonder filled him as another awoke.  Different, yet alike, he felt drawn to her.  Approaching shyly, he offered her his hand.  

Accepting, a surge of feeling coursed her veins.  Sliding gracefully into his arms, an urgency overcame her. Glancing instinctively towards the west, she backed from him and slowly walk away, looking back to see if he followed.

He did.

No words were spoken; nor were there any needed.


Chapter 2 - Author’s notes

I am not really sure of the timing here.  The dawn of the Time Of The Trees or earlier.  I have taken certain liberties with this story.  First off, did the elves speak when they awakened?  I have no clue.  Were they clothed, or nude?  Here I have more or less gone with the Garden of Eden philosophy.  Any dissenters, let me know.  But, be prepared to back up your comments.  I am not fond of someone just telling me “That’s wrong!”  I have a deep abiding thirst to know why it is wrong.  But, I am not above amending glaring errors, if you can gently prove it.  (I ignore nasty or stupid comments.)
