The subtle World Of Terraria

8 Side Story Tifa Part: 2

(Tifa POV):

I walked towards the elf kingdom tired and defeated.

*Some minutes later*

(3rd person POV):

Tifa reached the Elf kingdom which was filled with vegetation. There were overgrown trees that even if 2 people joined hands to measure the trees, then they won't even cover half of it.

Elves use these trees as the housing system and live inside it. Some trees had a circular wooden door at the base of the trees and others had it near the top. All of the housing trees were joined with Vines and Bridges.

Some of the trees had peculiar drawings right beside their entrances which described what you would find inside.

Tifa was walking towards a certain door in a tree which had the painting of a quill and paper beside it.

Inside the entrance was a hollow place with only 2 elves. One looked like a child and the other looked like a teen who was very angry. The child elf looked like a 12-year-old girl with light green hair and black eyes. Her hair was braided with different flowers and it almost reached the floor.

She was hiding behind the counter from a very angry elf who was....Sarah.

*BANG*

Sarah slammed the counter with her fist.

[WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE HASN'T REACHED HERE YET!] (Sarah)

Sarah screamed to the child Elf.

[I-Im very sorry but T-Tifa hasn't checked out here yet.] The child elf said on the verge of crying.

[If I found out that this is another prank from those bastards then I swear I'll Kill Them!] (Sarah)

[And if I found out that you're a part of this then expect a world of pain.] (Sarah)

[I-I swear I d-didn't do anything! I-I'm just doing my j-job.] The child elf said with tears in her eyes.

Just then the door behind them opened and a really tired elf came in.

It was Tifa.

[TIFA!] Sarah ran to Tifa to give her a big hug.

[I was so worried! Where were You!?]

[Hello sis, I'm back] Tifa said with a small smile.

Sarah finally looks at the state of Tifa to notice she had disheveled hair and reeked of sweat.

[W-What happened to you?]

[Nothing much, turns out the boy didn't need my help after all. He kept killing the zombies for the entire night. I couldn't see him get killed so I killed the zombies outside his field of vision so that he doesn't get surrounded. He survived the whole night killing each and every zombie with a wooden sword and then after it was all over. He started to build a house. And completing that too in a matter of minutes.]

[Wait, he did all that and didn't need any help?]

[Yes]

[....just how strong is he?] Sarah went into a deep thought

[Oh, I almost forgot you must be Tired. Let's go to the juice bar. On me.]

[Alright Let me do the attendance first.]

[Sure, I'll meet you at the juice bar.]

Sarah ran outside. Before poking her head inside to say

[Don't be late this time. Okey?]

[I got it, big sis.] Tifa smiled again.

Tifa went towards the child elf who was crying in a corner.

[Lily? I'm really sorry about her]

[I-Its fine *Sniff* I have to get used to these things right? *Sniff* S-She's just really scary when she's mad *Sniff*.]

[...Sorry again Lily.]

Lily wiped her tears before giving an attendance sheet of paper and a quill to Tifa.

Tifa checked under her name.

The attendance sheet is a good way of knowing if an elf is missing and they have been using that system for centuries.

[Thanks Lily.]

[N-No problem!] Lily said trying to straighten herself but it looked weird with snot in her nose.

Tifa left the administration office and started walking towards the juice bar.

.....

...

....

The inside of the juice bar was bustling with elves. The juice bar was just like a normal bar but for elves, it was inside a tree and they only served juice. Some were drinking merrily and some were drinking alone. The whole bar smelled of different fruits.

The door opened slowly and Tifa came inside.

As soon as Tifa came, the noises went down. And some elves even stood up and left. It was clear that the discrimination was not small.

Tifa signed and proceeded towards Sarah who was calling her to her table.

There was a small pouch on the table.

Tifa sat down on a stool and then opened the pouch to see it was her reward money. An exact 10 silver coins. Tifa nodded and took the pouch before Sarah told the bartender

[Hey Touke, make 2 specials for us!]

Touke looked at both of the girls before starting to make the drinks expressionless.

[Now, I want to know about the boy.]

Sarah said with curiosity in her voice.

[Hm? But I already told you everything?]

[you do know which race he was from right?]

[No, I haven't seen a race like that]

[Hm? Oh yeah, you've never visited the hall right? Well he was from the Silver daemons race if I remember correctly.] (Sarah)

[They are a really passive race and are really overprotective.] (Sarah)

Tifa nodded.

[You see where I'm going with this?] Sarah said with a slight grin.

[.....I don't] (Tifa)

Sarah made a huge grin.

[What if....he works with us?]

Tifa just stared at Sarah with sharp eyes.

[D-Dont look it me like that! I'm Serious!] (Sarah)

[Why do you think he'll want to work with us.] (Tifa)

Sarah made the same annoying grin again.

[Because they never leave their kingdom....alone.] (Sarah)

Sarah placed a finger on her lips and looked around. Signaling to talk when no one's around.

There was a small silence that hanged in the air before everyone left the bar.

The bartender arrived at the girl's table with two elegant looking wooden cups before handing it out to them. Inside the cups was a yellow liquid that had a very strong sweet smell.

[That will be 2 silver coins.] (Bartender)

Sarah paid him and went forward with the discussion with serious eyes.

[So why would a very skilled warrior leave their kingdom?......The answer is, he won't.] (Sarah)

[Do you think....] (Tifa)

[He was probably cast out.] (Sarah)

Tifa got sad thinking about the boy's life. She felt jealous of his skills in the sword, bow and also magic. Something which she always wanted to have but for a young boy like that to be cast out....

{Author note: Remember they are elves with huge life span. Someone of 20 years is like a kid to them.}

[Or he ran away.] Sarah said as she sipped her drink.

[Mmm. This is the bestttt.] (Sarah)

[I forgot to mention but he's also good with the bow and magic too.] (Tifa)

[How good though?] (Sarah)

[The wooden sword wasn't even damaged till the morning and was still imbued with fire the whole night. And he was using the bow at close range... Against crowds of zombies.] (Tifa)

Sarah almost threw up the juice in her mouth before finally swallowing it.

[What! That's I-Impossible right?] (Sarah)

[That's what I wanted to believe too.] Tifa said as she also started to drink her juice.

[T-Then all the more reason to recruit him right?] (Sarah)

Tifa went into a deep thought before finally saying [Do you think he will join us?]

Sarah grinned.

[Leave that to me!] Sarah said with a thumbs up.
