Soft but sharp.
Light but firm.
Elennora didn't know why he used such words when he wanted to describe what his mother's voice sounded like.
Nothing had changed in her voice since all those years ago, and even if there was indeed a hint of tenderness in that voice because his mother was still a woman, Elennora couldn't feel any love enter his heart at all.
Instead, he could only feel the softness of his mother's voice without the slightest hint of love touching his heart.
People said a mother should be the softest woman when she was with her children. She would smile at her children gently, and she would also spoil her children even if she had to sacrifice her happiness.
Unfortunately, Elennora never saw a mother like that even if he had a mother by his side for many years. The woman was physically there, but her heart was never with her son.
