Part 4...Quest to tell Tari
The elves decided that the best way to go un-noticed was to leave most of the elves
behind under the watchful eyes of Benbo, and Suri and Mimarack. This would allow Twi-Tow, and
Natala, to slip inside of Tari's realm quietly. On rising the next morning, they were ready
to find Tari, and let her know of Ipswitch's plans. As they said good-bye to their trusted
friends, they left on this note: "If we do not return by sunset, return to the forests of
Ipswitch, and tell all the other elves what has happened. " said Twi-Two. He nodded to
them, and they nodded in response.
They wandered around for what seemed like hours, and decided to rest.
After only a few minutes, they heard voices and became frightened. "Shhhhh!" said Twi-
Tow, we mustn't be seen or heard". The voices seemed to be coming from the north, and
beyond the trees they were resting under. They quickly jumped up, and scurried to a
nearby oak tree, where they hid quietly. "We must stay here, until they have gone" said
Twi-Tow. Listening very carefully, they overheard several elves talking of the upcoming
Moonfest. "We shall see what all the fuss is over now," said one. Twi-Tow assumed that
the elf must be a Garu. "Why for all these many years, we have not attended and now we
will." "That is a rather good change indeed" said another elf. "Tari has brought peace
among us, and now we believe in Rivital as the harmony of the forests." said the elf. "Let us go now, and finish our preparations for the moonfest, as I have gathered many
berries today, and need to rest." said another elf. Part 5 Tari |
