She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that’s best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes;.

    Loki’s malachite eyes turned towards Tauriel, catching sight of the sadness to her smile and her overall expression. It was then he recalled words he had heard in passing from a male in a tavern, something about how the Silvan elves of Mirkwood were not as wise as their other elven counterparts. He wondered why that was. Did they choose not to dabble in the knowledge their brethren spent centuries of their life trying to understand? Or was it harder for them to learn things? Or were they more focused on other aspects of their lives, other talents and skills, that wisdom just never became prevalent? Perhaps that was why his curiosity lingered on this species moreso than any other of the Middle-Earth beings. While he enjoyed knowledge quite a bit, being around elves who potentially knew more than he did not seem like something he would quite enjoy. And, besides, the Silvan elves had a quality to them he found fascinating.

    Many of these elves had never left Mirkwood, either, and if they had, it likely was not far. Had any ever chosen to leave and roam the world in search of wisdom? Or did they actively choose to stay here, only venturing into the dangerous territory of their woods and no further? Perhaps they didn’t wish to see the world. Perhaps the only wisdom and knowledge they really needed was right here before them. Still, he could not get the expression on Tauriel’s gentle face out of his head and he had to question her. “Do you wish to see the world?”

<sub>Tauriel sighed softly, the woods were all she knew. They extended far to the south– but.. She did not travel there, old memories and sad days remained there. What was she thinking though? Why did everything about her have to draw back to reclusive and saddening topics. What was wrong with her? Tauriel uncurled her legs and lightly swung them, with no thoughts. Just trying, to her best efforts, to return to the light mood before with laughter and cheek-straining smiles.

“I ca–,” Tauriel stopped. Pursing her lips and glancing around she lowered her chin and angled her head to look towards him. “Yes.” Though now, she closed her eyes shut and inhaled deeply. “I will go someday, beyond the forest, where starlight is as never ending as they say. I will go when I have earned it.”</sub>
