Go With The Princess.

"I am going with them, they could use or help." I said to Sura.

"You want to help that elf?" Sura said. I had never thought about it but her mother and maybe even her father had fought with the humans against the elves in the last war.

"Yes. It's the right thing to do." I stated. I couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

"Then you are going alone." She shook her head at me.

"I understand. Tell Rose and them for me please." I nodded and went to one of the fallen guards horses.

"Wait." She said and bent over one of the dead bandits bodies, unfastened his belt and yanked if off of him then grabbed his sword lying next to him and slid it into the sheath. "Here." She said tossing it to me. "Keep yourself safe."

"I will. Thank you." I smiled and got up on the horse and caught up with the carriage.

"What are you doing?" The Valkyrie asked as I got in beside them.

"I am coming with you. Your two men down and she is my princess as well." I stated.

"Very well." She nodded. I saw the princess peak out of the curtain at me and give a little smile.

"Where you injured?" She said looking at my arm which was bleeding.

"It's from yesterday. Bear." I shrugged.

The trip took longer then it had when I had made it alone but we made it to the border without further incident. After we crossed the border two centaurs came out to greet us. One male and one female. The first thing I noticed was the fact that the female centaur was very much topless. I guess they only wore clothes around humans who would find it vulgar. They lead us to the nearest village. Elderwood. I smiled seeing the place again. Me, the Valkyrie dismounted from our horses while the black haired woman got down from the carriage. The door opened and I walked over offering my hand to the princess who stepped down along with a human woman with long black hair and light olive skin who followed after her. A handmaiden I supposed.

"Welcome. Your Highness." A voice said. I turned to see the priestess. Still as lovely as last I had seen her. She was flanked by two girls on either side but neither of them were Arwen.

"Thank you." The Princess smiled.

"I hope your trip was a safe one."

"We lost two in an ambush on the road here." The Valkyrie stated.

"I am sorry to hear that. You all must be tired. We have prepared for your arrival. We will get you all settled in before we join together for dinner." The priestess said looking at me. "I would say it is good to see my friend but it seems you have been injured."

"Its a wound from yesterday. I will be fine."

"Sisters, please see our friend to the healing pool." The priestess said. "I must insist." I nodded in compliance and following them to the healing pool. They undid their robes and revealed their bare naked bodies. They never said a word as they came over to help me undress then lead me to the pool where I lied down. The ladies cupped water in her hand and poured it over my body. On at my shoulder and repeated this several times while another dripped water onto my cheek. I felt a blissful sensation wash over my me. Not just in my wounds but all of my body. The aches from riding on the horse for hours. The sourness in my feet from walking all yesterday and this morning. All gone. I closed my eyes enjoying the sensation then opened them looking up at the sky.

"I was wondering when you would wake up." A voice said. I looked up to see the priestess standing over me naked. I sat up and looked around and the elves who who had brought me into the room had vanished.

"I feel asleep." I said sitting up.

"Just for an hour." She said. It had felt like only seconds ago. I looked at my arm to see the stitches where gone and the cut marks where just three white lines. "Your body needed time to heal. I see you have discovered the magic within yourself."

"You can tell that?"

"Yes, and so can they." She said as I saw faeries fluttering about the pool. "They feared you last time but they are drawn to magic like a mouth to a flame. They are keeping their distance because they are still trying to figure out what to make of you."

"How will I know when they do?"

"You will know." She teased. I guess if they attacked me or ran away it meant they didn't like me. "Let us join the others for dinner." She said and lead me out and gave me a robe. I quickly put on my pants underneath. I didn't feel all that comfortable with my cock swinging in the wind. She lead me to what looked to be a grand hall. Or would be if their where any doors. Or walls for that matter.

"How are you feeling?" The princess asked as she came into the clearing with the others. She looked more like a lady now adored in a elven dress she wore. I couldn't help but admired her body. She had straight blonde hair that was pulled back. Stunning blue eyes and small yet luscious lips. Her ears, where maybe a bit shorter then elven ears but I couldn't say for certain but you could tell she was elf. She was about average height for a human with a slender figure like elves but her breast where bigger. Not overly so but enough that she could easily be mistaken for a full blooded human yet very pert as I could make out her nipples through her dress. Slender hips befitting a virgin who had not yet bore children and slender yet curvy legs. She was the best of both worlds you might say.

"I feel very much reinvigorated your highness" I bowed. I felt like I could run all the way back to the city.

"Please join us. We saved you a seat beside me." The princess smiled.

"As you wish your highness." I nodded.

"Her royal highness was born in that very pool." The priestess said.

"Really?" I asked as I looked at the princess who smiled.

"Yes, I had only just become head priestess a few months before. She has grown into such a beautiful lady since then." The priestess smiled and brushed a strand of hair from her face. It was hard to believe the high preistess was that old. I wouldn't have said she was a day over thirty at most. Sure she looked slightly mature but it had been almost two decades since the princess had been born and probably two more decades for the priestess to come of age to serve at the temple. Not to mention how ever long she served as a priestess before rising in rank to high priestess.

I pulled the chair out for the princess thinking that was what I was suppose to do. We sat at the table and the priestesses brought forth food on platters setting them before us. Having not eaten since breakfast I was starving. Maybe more so because of the healing pool. I had to do my best to resist digging in like an animal.

"I saw the Ogress give you a sword. You do not carry one?" The Valkyrie smiled. I noticed that the black haired woman hadn't joined us. Maybe she had headed back already. Now that the princess was in elven territory she should be safer.

"I grew up in a little village deep in the woods, chopping down trees is about as close as it comes to combat training." I shrugged cutting into my meat that cut to easily. I did not know what they seasoned it with but I might have to ask for the recipe.

"I could teach you a little tomorrow."

"I do not know if that is such a good idea Araseli, I have heard about your training sessions." The princess spoke up. So that was her name.

"Those are the royal guards. I will do my best to restrain myself my lady but from what from what I have seen he has a habit to end up in dangerous situations."

"I am fine with the idea. Worst case worst at least I am in the right place if I get hurt." I joked. At least I hoped it would be a joke and I not actually need to take another bath in the pool.

"So Araseli. Seren, and...?" I pointed with my knife at the handmaiden. She had a more exotic appearance about her with her sun kissed tan skin, dark brown eyes, and dark silky black hair.

"Cassandra Lionhart."

"I have heard great things of your father." I said feeling a little surprised. I mean I guess I shouldn't be really. I was eating dinner with the queen after all. She was the daughter of a duke.

"I am sure you have. Many people tell stories of my father, especially my father." She mused and looked at the princess who let out a little smile as they traded a glance.

"So are you all going to be staying here?"

"For a little while, We will be traveling toward the capital city after a week or so." She said. I wondered what that was like. Did they have a castle?

After dinner the princess and her handmaiden retired to their rooms. One of the priestesses lead me up to a room that was nicer then the one I had stayed in last time. My stuff was already in the room. I crashed onto the bed looking up at the ceiling. I thought about turning in early but my mind was restless.

I got up and picked up the sword drawing it from its sheath. It wasn't anything fancy having its fair share of dents and dings but it was at least sharp. I gave it a few swings trying to get a feel for its weight. I could remember swing wooden swords around as a kid. Imaging I was some knight off on an epic quest. I had to imagine my opponent as I moved around the room. I wondered how much of a damn fool I looked like as I slashed at the air, pretending I knew what the hell I was doing. I heard what sounded like a little giggle and turned as I saw a small group of faeries watching me from the window. At least someone was enjoying the show. I suddenly heard a knock at the door.

"Come in." I said quickly putting the sword back in its sheath. The high priestess entered.

"I trust everything is to your liking." She smiled.

"You really didn't need to do all this. I would have been happy with the room I had last time."

"I am sure you would but you are traveling with the princess. I have brought you some more food." She said as one of the priestesses came in and sat a tray down on the table. I noticed it was mostly fruits but as I saw it I heard my belly growl. I had been holding back at dinner but I am sure she knew that.

"Thank you." I said to the priestess she smiled and bowed slightly and made her exit.

"Please Eat." The Priestess smiled. I gladly sat down and began to eat and poured myself some wine.

"Do the priestesses ever talk?" I asked.

"No. When one becomes a priestess they take a vowel of silence. Minus the occasional moan." She said with a smile. I guess I could understand given what all they see.

"How does one become a priestess?"

"You know of the yearning from Arwen. A lustful hunger that most elves experience once a year?"

"Yes, she told me a little about it."

"We are drawn to places like this but for some like myself and the other priestesses that hunger never goes away. We are the goddesses chosen. The price for such a blessings means we loose our self identity. We no longer use our birth names and titles we had in or past lives."

"Speaking of. I have brought you something as well." She said holding out a book.

"What is it?"

"A book on magic. Sexual magic. I have learned much in my time here. We normal share this magic only within those of our order. The elves would never openly practice this kind magic but I think a human such as yourself might find it very useful. I have added a little on basic spell casting as well for you."

"It's in Elvish." I frowned looking at the pages.

"Oh right sorry." She smiled and touched the book. "Communis liber transferendum" The words moved on the page as like water as the ink drew from the page, moved, and dried again into the common tongue. "There that should do." She smiled.

"I could give you some hands on lessons later if you like but as for now I will see you in the morning. Goodnight."

"Goodnight priestess."

I sat and ate as I read and drank the wine she had placed on the tray along with a cup. The book was a little out of order reading more like a collection of notes then a book. I found the chapter on spell casting she had mentioned. It said that all spells require the will of mind to cast the spell, the movement of the hand to focus it as a tool, and the words to give in meaning. The words of a spell that gave it meaning didn't have to be precis to archive the desired effect but they gave the spell its intent so speaking a single word could have an effect different then the caster desired so typically a spell contained at least three words.

Suddenly I heard a flutter and one of the faeries landing on the table. She put her hands behind her back and smiled up at me as she swayed slightly. She was about as tall as my arm from wrist to elbow which was bigger then I had pictured them in my mind. Her wings glowed softly in a beautiful pattern that created a glow around her. I hadn't noticed when they where far away but the tiny dress she wore looked to be made of silk. Far away it concealed their naked bodies due to their glow but now that she was closer I could see her better. Her body was lithe in appearance with slight curves. Each of her small pert breast was about the size of my thumb with tiny nipples and I noticed no hair down between her legs. She glanced over at the food and back at me coyly as she rocked her elbows.

I smiled as I took one of the grapes and handed it to her. She sat down and started eating. I popped one in my mouth and ate as I read some more. She seemed happy as she ate. For her size it would be like me eating a whole melon so I was surprised when she was done she looked back over at the plate and I slid the plate in her direction. She smiled brightly and made a little giggle as she jumped up went onto the plate and grabbed a grape with both hands and tugged several times before it gave and she fell back onto her little ass. I laughed a little and she threw me a pout as she got up rubbing her ass which was a little pink.

"Sorry." I smiled. "Here let me help. Senso nullum dolorem." I said as I touched her butt with my finger using the only spell I knew for certain. I didn't figure I needed my whole hand. She smiled and actually rubbed her butt back and forth against my finger. She bent over slightly and put her hands her knees and moved her ass back and forth on my finger letting it slide between her legs. She was rubbing her pussy against it. She was a horny little fucker.
