71 Elanors Resolve (2/2)
”You sent me here,” Elanor complains while puffing out her cheeks.
Enyo sits next to Elanor and leans onto her. ”It's necessary to learn to heal. If you don't follow the ancient path, it'll be hard…”
”I don't care about Evelyn and Raul! Nor do I care about following their path. You're too obsessed with the old stories,” Elanor harrumphs.
Enyo sighs, ”Maybe your right. But it's all for your benefit.”
Elanor looks away flinging her waist-length blond hair into her mother's face. ”I'm doing fine on my own,” she declares.
Enyo stands up and looks down at her stubborn daughter. After a few moments, she shakes her head. ”It's fine for you to do what you want. If you want to just play around in this pathetic world, go ahead,” she concedes.
Elanor turns and looks up with hurt eyes. ”That's not what!” she begins.

”Rule these dregs like an unstoppable Empress. Relax and play treasure hunter. You don't have to worry if anything comes up you can always come home,” Enyo reassures Elanor.
Elanor stands up and eyes her mother angrily. She stamps her foot, causing the ground under them to crack and shatter. ”I just have a bit of fun, and you're on my back. Who cares if I wait a few years to learn to heal!” Elanor complains. She then swipes her right hand towards the ground and puts her left on her chest. ”Even when I wasn't here no one would challenge me. They all run or placate me. There's no challenge! No excitement. Everything is boring,” Elanor grumbles.
Enyo glances down at the ground for a moment forcing it back to its original state. She then returns Elanor's gaze. Enyo reaches out for her daughter but only makes it halfway. She opens and closes her hands a few times before dropping them back to her side.
”I know that you can reach the top simply by relaxing…” Enyo says as she looks up at the tent's roof. ”I just wanted you to join me,” Elanor's mother says with a bit of tremble in her voice.
Elanor looks at her mom inquisitively. Her mom is so strong and always sure. ”What are you talking about?” Elanor says while reaching out and grabbing her moms arm.
”The time has come,” Enyo declares. ”There is no better time than now. We've already mobilized. At this rate this will be the last time we meet. It's likely that during this next great war I'll ascend,” she informs Elanor with a distant look.
”I can fight mom! Why are you making this a big deal?” Elanor questions.
Enyo nods and scoops up her girls face. ”Yes you can fight. Shattering enemies far above you. Yet that isn't enough to guarantee your safety. It's not enough to be among the best in your generations. There were plenty among my peers that were stronger than me, but now they are long dead,” she says solemnly.
Elanor's eyes water as she grips her mom's arm. ”I'm not like them,” she ensures.
”Alright,” Enyo replies. She pats Elanor's head then turns away. ”You can play as long as you want don't worry,” Enyo says as she waves without looking back. She flips open the flaps before Elanor can reach her and is gone.
Elanor rushes out of her tent flinging the whole thing aside. ”MOM!” She screams with as tears stream down her beautiful face. After a half-hour of standing there crying Elanor's eyes become determined. She clenches her fist and once again stomps on the ground. The ground shatters to pieces destroying the well-kept camp. Elanor then swishes her hand collecting everything into her interspatial ring. ”It's just healing. Even if it's boring I can do it too,” she sneers.
