"Prophecy"
It was a dark night. Maiwë, Aiwë and Morfin were coming home. They knew the road very well, so they walked fast and surely. Suddenly the dark figure appeared before them. Girls stopped and looked at each other, terrified. Figure came closer. She was an old, short and fat elf, obviously an elf, because she would be very tall, if she weren't crooked. Stranger walked almost halfway bent. She looked at the girls and she smiled with her toothless mouth.
- Good evening, my dear girls - said she - I'm Gildur. I'm shadow.
- Do you know... future? - asked Morfin.
- I know many things. But it's very late, my dear girls - She passed girls by and she walked swaying. But she stopped after several steps and she recited:
- First love will die,
Second will last forever,
Third will see the beginning and the end,
All loves will know the happines - and she went away without looking back. Girls were staring at her back. And the old women suddenly straightened. Black coat slid to her feet and they saw long white dress she was wearing. Beautiful golden hair flowed to her arms. Phantom raised her hands and she disappeared in moment she connected them behind head.
- We won't tell anyone, will we? - asked Morfin.
- No... - Maiwë took her hand - we won't...
