"Forgotten Warrior: Tale of Rebirth and Redemption"

2 Points

As you walk through the exhibit at the museum, your eyes are drawn to a particular book nestled on a wooden pedestal. It is older than the others, its cover worn and faded, yet it exudes an aura that compels you to reach out and open it. The pages, filled with elaborately illustrated depictions of creatures from a bygone era, captivate you. You find yourself absorbed by the vivid images, enchanted by scenes of mythical creatures, majestic forests, and timeless warriors.

As your fingers trace over the intricate artwork, a sudden, blinding light engulfs you, rendering you momentarily blind. You gasp, your senses overwhelmed. When you finally regain vision, you find yourself no longer in the sterile, controlled environment of the museum. The air is warmer here, filled with the scent of rich earth and ancient trees. You stand at the edge of an enchanting woodland meadow, surrounded by clusters of towering trees whose leaves shimmer with hues that seem almost otherworldly.

You can hear the hum of wildlife, the distant murmur of a flowing stream, and the whisper of leaves as they sway gently in the breeze. A weight at your waist shifts your focus downward. To your astonishment, you are clad in regalia fit for an elven warrior: a green tunic adorned with intricate embroidery, secured by a leather belt, and a cloak that falls gracefully to the tips of your boots. You reach up and grasp the edge of a quiver strapped to your back by a leather sash, the bow nestled inside revealing faint, elegantly carved runes along its wooden body. As your hands brush against the archery equipment, the soft leather of archer's gloves conforms to your fingers like a second skin.

Your reflection appears in a nearby stream, and you stumble back in shock. The face staring back at you is chiseled and ethereal, framed by long silver-blonde hair that gleams in the waning sunlight. Your ears—no, they couldn’t be—are long and pointy. Trembling, you touch the smooth, almost-pale skin of your cheek, longing to find some semblance of your once-human self. But there is none.

Panic swells within you as your mind feels as if it's sinking into quicksand. Memories dissolve and are replaced by new ones—different ones. Harder to breathe, harder to think in coherent English sentences. You try to cry out, but what emerges is something foreign, alien to your own ears.

"H-help...muoi yúral…" your sentence falters, crumbling into unintelligible syllables that elude definition.

"Tel' Anor poldrae," the voices in your head resonate in a language that becomes frighteningly clear to you despite its alien nature. The gods remind you, “Your past was a dream, and we’ve blessed you with true purpose.”

You try to shake your head, to force them out. "No, this can't be...I was...I..." but the words twist and break, becoming more and more uncertain with each attempt.

A distant figure approaches. You feel a connection—a bond already blooming in your new reality. She, too, has silvery-blonde hair flowing like liquid moonlight, and her eyes sparkle with the light of the stars.

"Sellion, aváni yárea as." Her voice is a gentle caress, instantly calming your inner turmoil. She speaks in the melodic elven language, weaving its grace into your soul. She draws closer, wiping the tears on your cheeks. "Shh...it was but a dream, my love. You’ve returned to us, to your true self."

"M-my true self?" you ask, the language faltering on your tongue before eventually smoothing out.

“Yes,” she whispers, tracing her fingers along your cheek, “Uriel, you are home now.”

"Uriel...?" the name echoes through your mind, erasing the remembrance of whatever name you used to have.

Softly, she sings an elven lullaby, the words resonating deep within you, “Enda nóre, Lin ammen aranmórë, auta yúresse.” The song speaks of home, of endless love, of ancient gods who watch over their people—your people.

You have a vague sensation of knowing another life, something distant and foggy, blurred beyond recognition. But this elven maiden looking at you with such love and devotion dispels any semblance of doubt. You look at her, and memories flood your mind: the day you saved her from a goblin, the battles fought side by side, the nights spent under the canopy of ancient trees.

"A'maelamin," you whisper back, effortlessly. She smiles, and you lean in, sealing your bond with a tender kiss—something you’ve done a thousand times before.

In your heart, you know now that you are not a mere human lost in a dream; you are Uriel, warrior of the Elvenkind, chosen by the gods, forever young, forever graceful. The gods’ blessings have returned you to your rightful place, and your journey has just begun—once again, amongst those you love, in a world where you truly belong.

The gods’ voices, harmonious and powerful, echo through your mind one last time before dimming into a serene background hum, “Your mortal self was but a transient vision. You are Uriel. You are home.”

And with that, the transformation is complete.

Prompt: Write a POV transformation story of the average male human reader turning into the fantasy elf complete with a medieval elven tunic (that reaches past the hips), a leather belt strapped around his waist to keep his tunic in place, a long flowing cape that reaches his new footwear, medieval-styled pants neatly tucked underneath a pair of archer's long leather boots (these boots are also built for distant travels), a pair of archer's leather gloves, medieval archery equipment (a bow and the arrows-filled quiver) strapped either on his new leather sash (which is wrapped around his shoulder and his back) or to his leather belt (his entire outfit is like all other elven warriors in the fantasy world he lives in, and like all elves, his outfit is in both an earthly and forest color), long and pointy elven ears, thin and lean yet athletic and graceful body (with elegant posture and movement), handsome and ethereal-looking face, no facial hair on the lower half of his face (he keeps his eyelashes and eyebrows however, which are blonde like his head head now), light and almost-pale skin, beautiful blue irises in his eyes, and long blonde hair (not a Christmas elf, fantasy elf) complete with almost-instant age change, instant supernatural powers gain (including but not limited to sharpened senses, being immortal, and being forever youthful), almost-instant voice change (to fit with his new elven bloodline), almost-instant language shift (changing from English to an elven language, yet the reader now completely understood this new language whilst no longer remembering or speaking English, making English completely unfamiliar to him and he could no longer remember what English words mean nor could he know how to say English words/sentences), instant reality change (the reader's real world on Earth warping and becoming the fantasy medieval world filled with mythical creatures such as elves, goblins (the elves' arch nemesis), dragons, and many more, the reader is now in a fantasy-esque wooded meadow and/or forest with a nearby elven village, where the elven reader lives), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personality and memories replaced with an elf's personality and memories, despite his best efforts on fighting off the new memories and personality, making him completely forget about being a mortal human, having no memory of science, modern life, theory of evolution, etc, and only remember being an elf, realizing that he has always lived in a fantastical world created by gods (the elf reader himself being religious and fully believing in his world's gods, having full faith in those gods just like all elves, who also have a belief and faith in their world's gods, with all elves (the elf reader included) knowing and worshipping (as well as mentioning) the gods (even asking for helps and blessings from the gods when needed)), knowing every elven powers and weaponry (even having perfect archery skills), having lived in an immortal elven life in his home village with his elf wife (as well as the other elves, including his elven companions and comrades), and among others). The transformation is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible. The story is that the reader was visiting a museum containing very old books and other historical artifacts, where the reader finds a book that is all about medieval fantasy creatures, he then opens the book, causing the blinding light to engulf him and thus caused the whole transformation to occur. During the mental changes (where the reader's mind becomes cloudy/fuzzy/dizzy), the reader is truly terrified/horrified about completely losing/forgetting his own memories, personality, and language as a human (with English instantly changing to an elven language during mid-sentence (since elves do not speak or understand English and speaks purely in an elven language), much to the reader's horror, and he tries to speak English multiple times, but to no avail, since he had completely forgotten all about English and could no longer understand English and all he said and remember are elven words/sentences), so he tries to fight against the new memories and personality (even screaming for help from his family/friends, crying out in tears, as well as attempting to shake his head as an attempt to get rid of the emerging and invading elven memories/personality), but his mental fight is in vain (the elven personality and memories are too powerful), making him completely forget his mortal and mundane human life and he only remembers being a medieval-era elf (complete with a new name fitting for an elf, rather than an old human name he had now completely forgotten), having remembered his archery training, war with goblins, his faith and belief in the gods (ones who created this world, his belief and faith in the gods are like all elves), having a marriage to an elven woman (which he had saved from a goblin (by shooting the goblin with an arrow and thus saved the elven woman's life) and he later married to that elven woman), and himself being a heroic elf (being well-respected by his people and he respects his people). The gods, who transported the reader into a medieval fantasy realm, are transforming the reader in both body and mind, thanks to the gods' blessing, and the gods had intentionally blessed the reader by permanently removing all of the reader's humanity (the gods have blessed the reader by removing all of his human personality and memories, as the gods told the reader during his mind/mental change) and also blessed him by turning him into an immortal elf (due to the reader's newly elven body and mind, and they also intentionally and magically blessed the reader by completely removing/erasing all of the reader's mortal human memories and personality (the gods' voices are heard by the reader in his head and telling him to completely forget his human self and life (claiming that the reader's human self and life was all just a dream, thus they're saying to the reader that the gods erasing the mortal memories, personality, and life is not a curse, but a blessing), the gods tell/say the reader (in elven language) that they are blessing him by erasing all of his mortal human memories and personality (the gods intentionally erasing all of the reader's previous human life and memories/personality is truly a blessing), while also telling him to remember his true elven self and life, proving their intent in creating a hero for their fantasy world), thus making him completely and permanently forget about ever being a mortal human), and the removal of human memories/personality is truly a blessing as stated by the gods (and not a curse), as told by the gods themselves. During his mind/mental change, the now-elven reader now calls for help from the gods (due to his newfound religious belief as an elf in this fantasy world) to aid the reader in remembering his true self (an elf, and not a human) and help remove both the reader's human memories and personality. To aid in the now-elven reader's transforming mind, a beautiful, youthful, ethereal-looking adult female/maiden elf (who quietly thanks/praises the gods for helping her husband (the elf reader) to return to his true self) from a nearby elven village (who, along with the gods who created this fantasy world, is the one who used the magic from the book to transport the reader into a medieval world and permanently transformed the reader into an elf himself in both body and mind, since the female elf (who is religious and believes in the gods and has full faith in them, just like her husband (the elven reader)) really wanted a husband of her own) comes up to the reader (she's happy to see the human reader turning into her brave husband and warrior elf) and comforts him with a gentle hug, gently wiping away the reader's tears, softly holding the transforming reader's hands, an affectionate and genuine true love's kiss, quietly singing an elven lullaby to the reader, and telling him that his human life was not real and is just a dream (she also confirms the reader that he was returning/traveling back home to his elven village home (which is his real home) from one of his many quests or battles and that's why he was daydreaming about his false and imagined human life), and she tells him to remember his true elven body and life (saying those all in an elven language rather than in English, which is now completely foreign), making the now-elven reader realize that the elf woman comforting him is his caring, understanding, and loving wife (whom the elf reader truly loves, cares, and understands, having always known her since saving her life from an attacking goblin), she is telling this truth to the transforming reader (which the reader truly and completely believes), and the reader is truly happy to know that his previous human life was actually only a dream (he is completely unaware of ever being a mortal/human before or the transformation ever actually happened), and he is happy that his life as a brave, courageous, smart, adventurous, and faithful elf warrior (he enjoys being with his elf wife, whom he truly loves (and vice versa) and has married centuries ago (the reader is truly happy about being with his elven wife and is affectionate towards her (kissing included), as he truly loves her (and his elven wife also truly loves him), he even promises to always be there for her), as well as having his loyal elven companions and comrades who follow him (he is also loyal to his companions and they always help him in quests and battles, having succeeded in all battles and quests against villains, including but not limited to goblins), and he himself being guided and supported by the gods (who have intentionally chosen and transformed the human reader into a heroic elf warrior so this fantasy world would have a hero to save this realm) who created this fantasy world) is his true and only life. Plus, the elf reader is completely and permanently unaware that his former mortal human life had existed, and he's completely and permanently unaware that his transformation had ever happened (he is amused, possibly laughing, at the idea of ever being a human), the elf reader believes that he was daydreaming about the human life while he was returning back to his home village from the battle/quest (exactly like what his elven wife stated earlier), and his journey as an elven warrior, unbeknownst to him, had just begun, even though the elf reader knew that he had always been a heroic elf and he had already been on the journey countless of times before. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story (including the gods' quotes in the reader's head) so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Not only that, but there should be quotes in elven language, even the reader's language shift during his panic (the reader is now unable to remember English and cannot understand English (unable to understand what English words mean) or even speak English anymore (with no more English words from any characters in this story after the reader's English language fully/completely shifted to the reader's new elven language) thus English has become alien and foreign to the reader (now an elf), since English is completely unfamiliar and foreign to all elves (including other elves besides the reader)), as well as the lyrics to the lullaby that the elf woman is quietly singing to the transforming reader. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
