On a Cold and Glowing Bed
There is a way for a high elf to stay "clean" and not become a filthy dark elf. And that is an ice bed. That is what we believed. The princess is lying down peacefully and her hair decoration is shining brightly. It's freezing but I don't feel lonely, because my tutor Ephylinde is by my side. (Ainanna's thoughts)
