The Elven Cleansing Ritual

Description

======

Long after The Magician blanketed this world with his black curse, the Elven ranger fought hard against the creatures that have fallen to grief and despair. Even so, like all living beings effected by the curse, darkness welled up within Rena's pure heart... her devotion has allowed her to last significant longer than other living beings, but the ranger can clearly tell that she is nearing her limit - anymore fighting, and she will eventually succumb to the black curse and cease to be...

Realizing that, it was time to go home and rest - As nature's guardian of this world, she must return to her homeland and bath in the Tree of Life's waters where she will be cleansed of curse's darkness that is plaguing Rena.

Having deposited her personal belongings to a trusted caretaker, Rena braved the forbidden forest and reached the Tree of Life easily. The first time she was here, Rena was absolutely embarrassed from having to run around while being completely naked... now that this isn't her first rodeo, the sight of her birthplace filled the ranger's heart with tranquility - it's great to be back home again.

Slowly, Rena cautiously entered the blue lake surrounding the Tree of Life and dipped herself into it, allowing the water's purifying energy to work on the curse afflicting Rena. It is a pleasing experience for the ranger, to have all the worries taken away from her like an unseen weight lifted from her shoulders; the elf swam towards the Tree of Life, wanting to stay near it before the curse's reaction take over her body.

As she sat on one of the tree's roots above the water, Rena took one last look at the beautiful homeland that she worked so hard to protect... her efforts will not be in vain, the ranger thought, "Eventually, the magician will be defeated once again, and the curse will be lifted. Only then, the world will know peace once again."

Feeling her body harden under the influence of the curse, Rena knew that her time is up and made sure she hold as still as she possibly can... while the black curse has varying effects on other races, it is known to Rena that when the curse within an elf activates, her body will solidify rapidly, turning her into a living statue for an eternity.

The petrification's effect is not permanent however - as long as the petrified elf is escorted safely back to its hometown and left under the Tree of Life's care, nature's healing effects will remove the curse's darkness tainting its soul until it is ready to be unpetrified. Now that it is Rena's turn to be healed, she gladly allowed the curse to overtake her body, transforming her into a granite statue that flawlessly preserved her Elven charm and beauty in stone.

"And now, it is time to play~" Realizing that her body is now fully petrified, Rena 'stood up' away from her stone shell and soared around the green paradise she calls home. It will be a long while until Rena is fully healed... until then, the elf wisp will spend her time playing with the spirits of nature and cherish all of the things she has worked to protect with her life.

A rather whimsical story I've written out of the blue... with elves in mind of course. I know I've mentioned that there are not enough elf statues in the ASFR world (and on a related note, I thank Sekikumo for his recent uploads)... but this one, something inside me genuinely wanted for their petrification to be a temporary one instead of a permanent one. Call it a newfound fondness if you may but.... ahh, I just don't know how to put this in words : Yes, I want them petrified occasionally, but I want them to run free and do what elves normally enjoy too.

Oh well, I hope you'll enjoy anyway.

Pretty. Glad to know Rena bathed before she was temporarily petrified. Like Lewdanum said, "I do like it when the victim can at least feel some pleasure or get some enjoyment out of it." I agree. Rena actually kind of deserved to feel some sense of happiness before being frozen until who knows when.
