The people all crowed in two rooms. Their facey costumes lit up the hall and the dining area. The delate children luaghed as they palyed with thier elder cuzins, who teased they with "disapearing" acts. The ball was a happy place where no mortal was present. It was the ball of the Elves. They each had sharp beautiful figures none of them had a disfiguration-until the hosts dauther apeared. She wasn't as beautiful as the Elves around her where- if fact compared to them she was the hunch back of Noter Dam.
But she didn't let the stares and whispers hold her back. She laughed and played with the children. She took on serious disscussions about the newest problems the Elves faced. But al though she was ugly everyonecould help but to love her smile that made the costume wore look like dim candel sticks. Her smile washeavenly noonedoughted that- but how could such a hidieous creature be a Elve?
That next day the Maqurade Ball continued, but there was no ugly duckling. All the guests where releaved, they didn't want their childern or themselves to be around a creature like that! But as the bells tolled midnight a heavenly creature apeared. She walked without touching the ground, she vioce sang when she laughed, she glowed the blessings of God. Now the Elves didnt no what to think! They felt so small and insignificate nexted to this angelic figure.
Finally one Elve musteredenough courage to ask the woman whereshe came from.
She laughed in her sing-song vioce and said "What noneofypou reconise me? I was the one that could act like a child but be an adult- i could ignore the discrase and harsh words. Andyou still do not know who i am?"
The youger children squealed in delight as they ran up to the Woman of God.
Then everyone knew who this person was, this heavenly figure sent from heaven above. It was the hostest daughter, she dressed as a human andtoday she showed her true features.
