One discovery leads to another

For Allisa, the following weeks that passed since the defeat of the Demon Lord have been a string of hectic events and activities. As a member of Roland's party of heros the return to the capital, the Walled City. The buzz and excitement reached a frenzy as celebrations continued nonstop for days, followed by politics, meetings, reunions and such. It was almost understandable how Allisa could have missed the worrying signs, as time flew by too quickly and with her attention focused on political matters. It wasn't until the Allisa found herself with an ever growing fatigue that affected her busy politicking, that the elf princess's attention shifted back to her body, curious about the subtle changes occuring in her body and more specifically the purple magic crest above her womb.

'Oh by the spirit how did it come to this' Allisa mentally bemoaned. Perhaps if she paid attention to her body sooner, Allisa would have been able to spare herself much grief. Hurriedly she applied some quick diagnosis spells over her womb, to determine the origin of the womb crest. However, the elf was horrified to learn that she was somehow against her knowledge, pregnant.

Immediately, Allisa attempted to find some other explanations. As understandably, this revelation immediately distressed the elf, however to remove any doubts. Allisa secretly meet with Sirene the healer to confirm and reaffirmed the elf's unfortunate discovery. As Sirene placed her glowing magic hands over the elf's stomach. "Unfortunately Allisa there's no easy way of saying it, but you are pregnant"

It was easy in hind sight, how the symptom didn't seem noticeable. The morning sickness could have just been Allisa having a few to many drinks. The lack of a monthly cycle could have been Allisa being too stress and working too hard. A growing tenderness in her breasts and her once toned and leaned stomach slowly becoming rounder and larger, well the food in the capital is too rich and fatty than what she was previously used too.

The elf would rather believe convenient lies rather than the unfortunate and uncomfortable truth. That somehow, against her knowledge or awareness she was pregnant. She could sense whoever the father was, he was a human. A half breed child of unknown origin growing her royal womb, to be born out of wedlock.

"But my purity? I'm still untouched and pure" Allisa could not recall any moments of intercourse occuring, in addition she just check that her hymen was still intact and undamaged.

"You're virginity isn't going to matter when the baby comes popping out of you" Sirene bluntly stated, withdrawing her glowing hands from Allisa's and pondered deeply about the scenario the elven princess has dumped onto her lap.

"I can't have a child out of wedlock!" Allisa cried, tears on the verge of being shed, Sirene paused and look at the sobbing elf.

With a concerned look "Fortunately it's not too late to abort this child" Sirene offered Allisa a alternative option. The idea of which immediately reassured the near hysterical elf.

"Really?" Allisa asked, stunned and hopeful.

"Though at this stage, an abortion would certainly render you infertile" Sirene warned grimly.

"What?" Allisa asked shocked.

"This magic crest, whatever it's origin has bonded itself to the unborn babe. Protecting the child in your belly from anything that can harm it. If we were to abort the child, the womb crest would destabilise and render you infertile." Sirene explained, analysing Allisa womb crest. At that news, Allisa broke down into a sobbing mess.

"But Allisa if you still wish we can abort the child" Sirene offered, holding the elf princess close to comfort her.
