Faramir Elessar and Eldeen the Unicorn

Faramir sat in his quiet and small cathedral built in the heart of the Pale Crystal Hallow. It was the home of the Unicorn keepers. The Hallow was a magical place bathe in moonlight eternally. It is said that the moon’s shine is always visible via a magical portal in the sky sustained by the unicorns. Pale Crystal Hallow remained quiet and compared to the usual comings and goings in the rest of the Morinae kingdom. Faramir stood from his seat and headed outside where he could stand in the light of the moon. He knelt down and clasped his hands together in prayer.

Looking up to the moonlight Faramir prayed gently, ”Oh Great Moon which shines it’s wisdom down from the heavens, bring clarity to this clouded vision of mine. A light shine down and a connection was made that had long since occurred in this realm. What would you have the Unicorns and their Keepers do? Oh Great Moon impart your wisdom.” As Faramir prayed the moonlight began to bean down with a soft blue intensity. After a few moments, Faramir stood to his feet and the moonlight returned to its normal degree of brightness. “I understand.” Faramir said calmly as he looked to see Eldeen standing nearby.

Eldeen’s mane glistened and sparkled with the moonlight and his graceful horn shined as if made of crystal. “What has the Great Moon told you Prince Faramir?” Eldeen asked Faramir as he communicated telepathically.

Faramir looked somewhat stoically as he replied, “We must see the Lady of the Wood. It has been sometime since we have spoken with one another. It seems we must leave our beloved Pale Crystal Hallow. Please tell the other Keepers of our imminent travel plans, so that they are prepared to protect the Hallow from trespassers in our absence.” With that Eldeen departed to prep the Keepers of the Hallow.

Within a few hours, Faramir and Eldeen departed from the Pale Crystal Hallow and entered Morinae proper. The sun shined down through the trees gently and the birds sang sweetly. Faramir smiled as he gazed at the trees and the sunlight. “It has been a while, Oh Dear Friend of the Great Moon.” Faramir said as he spoke to the sun itself. It had been a long while since Faramir had stepped out into the sunlight, and yet it did not bother him nor did his eye need adjusting to the chance in light. He and Eldeen walked through the forest and into the palace area. Upon reaching his destination he and Eldeen noticed a man of seemingly notable strength. Faramir also noticed a young woman who appeared a bit flustered. Nevertheless, Faramir spoke to the guardian of the palace, “Greetings from Pale Crystal Hallow. I am Faramir Elessar, Prince of the Unicorn Keepers. This is Eldeen Lord of Unicorns. Please grant me audience with the Lady of the Wood, for I much desired to speak with her.” Faramir said as he bowed in a manner particular to Unicorn Keepers.
