Elves, the legendary beings of the forest and known as blessed beings of the Goddess of Life, are renowned for their unyielding pride and warrior spirit. Even when faced with dire circumstances, they refuse to retreat from danger or back down from any challenge. It is said that unless they have been definitively defeated in battle, they will stand their ground no matter the odds stacked against them.
The elves before me are not an exception to that, however, they held a deep aversion to the sight of my firearm. Accustomed to the elegance of bows and arrows as their primary weapons, the introduction of a novel instrument like my gun was met with disdain. This disdain reflected the elves' relatively traditional approach to weaponry, which contrasted sharply with the ever-advancing world beyond their forest borders and their hidden kingdom.
