Laeriel stared at her reflection. What she saw was a short, skinny, large eyed girl. With hair far to thick to be so straight and a way about her that made her seem too childlike to be thousands of years old.
What anyone else would see, though, was far from what she thought of herself.
What everyone else saw was a petite, beautiful girl. With large brown eyes that reached into the depths of anyone's soul, and blonde hair that cascaded down her back and glinted in the sun like desert sand.
Still, no one could convince her of that. She sighed at the girl who stared back at her from the mirror. At least my dress looks halfway decent, she thought to herself as she studied the light blue and silver dress that flowed over the curves of her body. It was made of a light, shimmery material; the blue underneath and a light, silvery, transparent material over her skirt. The dress was without girdle, it was cut to fit her body and came to a V low on her waist. Her sleeves were long, and fitted, and a pointed peice of fabric looped around her middle finger. She was wearing simple, silver jewlery, and her hair was unbound. The material of the dress was what Laeriel loved the most, it was so soft and light, and it seemed to float above the ground when she turned. She may have been older than any other living human, but the little girl inside her still loved fine things.
She turned to leave when she saw Rhylin, standing in the doorway. She opened her mouth to say something, but no words came. Instead, she smiled, the broadest, most happy smile ever smiled. She ran to him, and he took her in his arms and kissed her soundly. Now, we can face this together, she thought to herself as she and Rhylin turned to leave, and headed towards the throne room.
