Your footsteps echoed through the hallowed halls of the old museum. You had always been fascinated by the ancient times, the myths and legends that filled the pages of dusty tomes. Today, as you wandered deeper into the maze of artifacts, something called to you. A book, unlike any other, lay unassumingly on a pedestal. Its cover was adorned with intricate silver engravings of creatures you had only ever dreamed about.
Your curiosity got the better of you; with hesitant hands, you opened the book. A blinding light engulfed you, lifting you off your feet and spinning you in circles. You felt your body contort, your skin becoming smoother, your frame leaner. Panic set in, but before you could even scream, your voice changed. It was not your voice anymore; it was lighter, smoother, graceful.
Tugging at the helm of your earth-toned tunic, you tried to slow your racing heart. The tunic felt both foreign and familiar, reaching past your hips and held in place by a leather belt. A long, flowing cape brushed against your newly acquired tall, leather boots, perfect for distant travels. Your gloved hands reached up to feel your ears, now long and pointy, a dead giveaway of your new reality.
"How is this possible?" you whispered, but the words that came out were not English. They were in a language you had never studied, yet understood completely. Terror gripped you, realizing that English words failed to form in your mind or escape your lips. "Hu- Humans... help..." turned into syllables you couldn't comprehend, "Fá- Fasha... iray massë...!"
Memories started flooding in like a dam had broken. Memories of battles with goblins, of archery training with comrades, of a life immortal and unchanging. The face of an ethereal elven maiden appeared before you, her blue eyes filled with relief and love. "Avo 'osto, melda. Nalyë túlë numenya." Do not fear, beloved. You are coming home.
"No! I am a human! My name is... I am... I..." Your thoughts blurred, fighting against the onslaught of new memories. You tried to recall your friends, family, the mundane life you once had, but it was like trying to grasp mist. Words, names, and faces melted away, replaced by ancient songs and legends.
The gods' voices echoed in your mind, resonating with authority and kindness. "Elyë tyegane. Nanyë nantul! Cor-lómën'telyu anyára." You are blessed. It is a return! Your human life was but a dream.
The maiden's gentle touch on your cheek calmed you slightly. She, appearing ethereal and stunning, whispered as she wiped away your tears, her voice like a soothing balm. "Tyal amrun, Melda," she said, and gracefully held your hands, "Lótië fainë yestailyen." Your human life was not real.
Her words made something click within you. Her eyes, her touch, her presence felt deeply familiar. You remembered saving her from a goblin attack, remembered her deep gratitude and your heroic act that bound you together. She was your wife, your ethereal companion, and you had always lived a life among the trees and stars.
"Símenye tolyan, melmë," she said, smiling as she kissed you with genuine love. You kissed her back, recognizing the bond deeper than eternity.
The gods whispered again, their blessings washing away the last thread of resistance. "Mythyë ohtarme. Ivë lá nárë cuinyë." Remember, elven warrior. You are chosen to protect.
You let go. The terror faded, replaced by serenity and acceptance. Your human life felt like a foggy illusion, hard to grasp and not worth remembering. With her gentle singing of an elven lullaby, "Lelyalë elin'na... silalyë." Traveling beyond the stars, you shine.
Looking into the maiden's eyes, now your elven wife's, you smiled genuinely. "Manquë elenion," you spoke softly. What joy among the stars.
Gazing beyond the wooded meadow, you saw the elven village, your home, your life. You were not just a part of the myths; you ARE the myth, a heroic elf warrior, guided by gods and loved by your people. This is your true self, en Raphaëlen Valançoria, and always has been.

Prompt: Write a POV transformation story of an average male human reader turning into a fantasy elf complete with a medieval elven tunic (that reaches past the hips), a leather belt strapped around his waist to keep his tunic in place, a long flowing cape that reaches his new footwear, medieval-styled pants neatly tucked underneath a pair of archer's long leather boots (these boots are also built for distant travels), a pair of archer's leather gloves, medieval archery equipment (a bow and the arrows-filled quiver) strapped either on his new leather sash (which is wrapped around his shoulder and his back) or to his leather belt (his entire outfit is like all other elven warriors in the fantasy world he lives in, and like all elves, his outfit is in both an earthly and forest color), long and pointy elven ears, thin and lean yet athletic and graceful body (with elegant posture and movement), handsome and ethereal-looking face, no facial hair on the lower half of his face (he keeps his eyelashes and eyebrows however, which are blonde like his head head now), light and almost-pale skin, beautiful blue irises in his eyes, and long blonde hair (not a Christmas elf, fantasy elf) complete with almost-instant age change, instant supernatural powers gain (including but not limited to sharpened senses, being immortal, and being forever youthful), almost-instant voice change (to fit with his new elven bloodline), almost-instant language shift (changing from English to an elven language, yet the reader now completely understood this new language whilst no longer remembering or speaking English, making English completely unfamiliar to him and he could no longer remember what English words mean nor could he know how to say English words/sentences), instant reality change (the reader's real world on Earth warping and becoming the fantasy medieval world filled with mythical creatures such as elves, goblins (the elves' arch nemesis), dragons, and many more, the reader is now in a fantasy-esque wooded meadow and/or forest with a nearby elven village, where the elven reader lives), and mind/mental change (with the reader's personality and memories replaced with an elf's personality and memories, despite his best efforts on fighting off the new memories and personality, making him completely forget about being a mortal human, having no memory of science, modern life, theory of evolution, etc, and only remember being an elf, realizing that he has always lived in a fantastical world created by gods (the elf reader himself being religious and fully believing in his world's gods, having full faith in those gods just like all elves, who also have a belief and faith in their world's gods, with all elves (the elf reader included) knowing and worshipping (as well as mentioning) the gods (even asking for helps and blessings from the gods when needed)), knowing every elven powers and weaponry (even having perfect archery skills), having lived in an immortal elven life in his home village with his elf wife (as well as the other elves, including his elven companions and comrades), and among others). The transformation is permanent (meaning it is forever) and is completely irreversible. The story is that the reader was visiting a museum containing very old books and other historical artifacts, where the reader finds a book that is all about medieval fantasy creatures, he then opens the book, causing the blinding light to engulf him and thus caused the whole transformation to occur. During the mental changes (where the reader's mind becomes cloudy/fuzzy/dizzy), the reader is truly terrified/horrified about completely losing/forgetting his own memories, personality, and language as a human (with English instantly changing to an elven language during mid-sentence (since elves do not speak or understand English and speaks purely in an elven language), much to the reader's horror, and he tries to speak English multiple times, but to no avail, since he had completely forgotten all about English and could no longer understand English and all he said and remember are elven words/sentences), so he tries to fight against the new memories and personality (even screaming for help from his family/friends, crying out in tears, as well as attempting to shake his head as an attempt to get rid of the emerging and invading elven memories/personality), but his mental fight is in vain (the elven personality and memories are too powerful), making him completely forget his mortal and mundane human life and he only remembers being a medieval-era elf (complete with a new name fitting for an elf, rather than an old human name he had now completely forgotten), having remembered his archery training, war with goblins, his faith and belief in the gods (ones who created this world, his belief and faith in the gods are like all elves), having a marriage to an elven woman (which he had saved from a goblin (by shooting the goblin with an arrow and thus saved the elven woman's life) and he later married to that elven woman), and himself being a heroic elf (being well-respected by his people and he respects his people). The gods, who transported the reader into a medieval fantasy realm, are transforming the reader in both body and mind, thanks to the gods' blessing, and the gods had intentionally blessed the reader by permanently removing all of the reader's humanity (the gods have blessed the reader by removing all of his human personality and memories, as the gods told the reader during his mind/mental change) and also blessed him by turning him into an immortal elf (due to the reader's newly elven body and mind, and they also intentionally and magically blessed the reader by completely removing/erasing all of the reader's mortal human memories and personality (the gods' voices are heard by the reader in his head and telling him to completely forget his human self and life (claiming that the reader's human self and life was all just a dream, thus they're saying to the reader that the gods erasing the mortal memories, personality, and life is not a curse, but a blessing), the gods tell/say the reader (in elven language) that they are blessing him by erasing all of his mortal human memories and personality (the gods intentionally erasing all of the reader's previous human life and memories/personality is truly a blessing), while also telling him to remember his true elven self and life, proving their intent in creating a hero for their fantasy world), thus making him completely and permanently forget about ever being a mortal human), and the removal of human memories/personality is truly a blessing as stated by the gods (and not a curse), as told by the gods themselves. During his mind/mental change, the now-elven reader now calls for help from the gods (due to his newfound religious belief, faith in the gods, as a result of being an elf in this fantasy world) to aid the reader in remembering his true self (an elf, and not a human) and calling the gods to help remove his (false) human memories and personality, all in an elven language he now fully understands and knows how to speak elven (having already forgotten all English words and their meanings (like all elves, the elf reader does not know English nor what do English words mean), being completely alien and foreign to the elf reader, who only speaks and knows the elven language). To aid in the now-elven reader's transforming mind, a beautiful, youthful, ethereal-looking adult female/maiden elf (who quietly thanks and praises the gods for helping her husband (the elf reader) to return to his true self (an elf warrior)) from a nearby elven village (who, along with the gods who created this fantasy world, is the one who used the magic from the book to transport the reader into a medieval world and permanently transformed the reader into an elf himself in both body and mind, since the female elf (who is religious and believes in the gods and has full faith in them, just like her husband (the elven reader)) really wanted a husband of her own) comes up to the reader (she's happy to see the human reader turning into her brave husband and warrior elf) and comforts him with a gentle hug, gently wiping away the reader's tears, softly holding the transforming reader's hands, an affectionate and genuine true love's kiss, quietly singing an elven lullaby to the reader, and telling him that his human life was not real and is just a dream (she also confirms the reader that he was returning/traveling back home to his elven village home (which is his real home) from one of his many quests or battles and that's why he was daydreaming about his false and imagined human life), and she tells him to remember his true elven body and life (saying those all in an elven language rather than in English, which is now completely foreign), making the now-elven reader realize that the elf woman comforting him is his caring, understanding, and loving wife (whom the elf reader truly loves, cares, and understands, having always known her since saving her life from an attacking goblin), she is telling this truth to the transforming reader (which the reader truly and completely believes), and the reader is truly happy to know that his previous human life was actually only a dream (he is completely unaware of ever being a mortal/human before or the transformation ever actually happened), and he is happy that his life as a brave, courageous, smart, adventurous, and faithful elf warrior (he enjoys being with his elf wife, whom he truly loves (and vice versa) and has married centuries ago (the reader is truly happy about being with his elven wife and is affectionate towards her (kissing included), as he truly loves her (and his elven wife also truly loves him), he even promises to always be there for her), as well as having his loyal elven companions and comrades who follow him (he is also loyal to his companions and they always help him in quests and battles, having succeeded in all battles and quests against villains, including but not limited to goblins), and he himself being guided and supported by the gods (who have intentionally chosen and transformed the human reader into a heroic elf warrior so this fantasy world would have a hero to save this realm) who created this fantasy world) is his true and only life. Plus, the elf reader is completely and permanently unaware that his former mortal human life had existed, and he's completely and permanently unaware that his transformation had ever happened (he is amused, possibly laughing, at the idea of ever being a human), the elf reader believes that he was daydreaming about the human life while he was returning back to his home village from the battle/quest (exactly like what his elven wife stated earlier), and his journey as an elven warrior, unbeknownst to him, had just begun, even though the elf reader knew that he had always been a heroic elf and he had already been on the journey countless of times before. There should also be quotes from the characters in this story (including the gods' quotes in the now-elven reader's head) so we know what they're saying and what they're thinking. Not only that, but there should be quotes in elven language, even the reader's language shift during his panic (the reader is now unable to remember English and cannot understand English (unable to understand what English words mean) or even speak English anymore (with no more English words from any characters in this story after the reader's English language fully/completely shifted to the reader's new elven language) thus English has become alien and foreign to the reader (now an elf), since English is completely unfamiliar and foreign to all elves (including other elves besides the reader)), as well as the lyrics to the lullaby that the elf woman is quietly singing to the transforming reader. Also, it is a POV reader story, so it should not be in an author's point of view (my, I, mine, etc), and it should be from the point of view of the reader (you, your, etc).
