The Elven Shoemaker

Summary:

According to King Emerys in KM Shea's fairytale retelling, the cursed elven generals were free of their curse, but not by his doing. "By the time I finally caught up with them, a young woman, a cobbler’s apprentice from Trieux, had already freed them.” He goes on to add that the breaking of the curse "involved love of a sort—and the girl did fall in love with one of my generals.”

Here's my attempt at filling in the sketchy details. :)

Those of you participating in Inktober will recognize several of the prompts worked throughout the story. Just a tip of my hat to the fun.

Notes:

The podfic for this work was read by OhthePossibilities on AO3. She has an amazing voice and did a fabulous job! Thanks so much, friend!

As usual, my work is beta-ed by the fabulous Xenutia who puts up with far too much from me. :)
