It's been a year since the ring has been destroyed and before now everyone was at peace but now men are turning against eachother, they are losing faith and will stand and fight alone. Rohan and Gondor are at war beacuse the relationship between Eowyn and Faramir ended, since then they have nothing but hatred for eachother and are showing no mercy for their once so good friends, is anyone going to help? Are the Hobbits and Elves going to let the men of Gondor and Rohan waste away? They have a very big desision to make and if they decide not to help all will be lost for these once strong cities of friendship.

Sam sat quietly in the corner of the Green Dragon. He had heard about the wars, and that the Hobbits may have to get help. He sighed and drained his mug and walked outside, bumping into Isódia. He blushed and backed away "Sorry"
-
(Im fighting in Gondor)
-
*Nienna was galloping down the road with Amelia when she came to a sudden halt at the Green Dragon, she jumped off her horse and burst into the pub, the doors swung open and there was a gush of wind behind her. She walked over to where Isōdia and Sam were stood* "I got here as quick as I could, and I've brought Amelia with me"
-
Amelia hurried after her and gracefully curtsed in respect
-
*Nienna turned to Isōdia* "What are we going to do about this mess? We need to get all the Hobbits together that are willing to help" *Nienna turned Sam* "I believe we need your help for this"
-
Sam felt quite small, with Elves surrounding him. He looked up when Nienna was talking to him"Me?!" He said
-
"this is really serious but we cant worry the poor things i mean there so simple" pointed out amelia
-
Sam heard what Amelia had said and he frowned "We are not simple!" He said angrily
-
she looked at sam deeply and said " sorry i'm just so worried"
-
"Amelia, Hobbits are very strong and yes Sam, we need you to bring together all Hobbits able to fight and try and persuade them to help us"*Nienna looked over to Amelia* "And remember Amelia twas a Hobbit which destroyed the one ring, and mighty Sam here helped"
-
Sam bowed "Yes, I am Samwise m'lady". He said and smiled. He looked over at Nienna and nodded. "Yes, I understand"
-
"So Sam we need you to do this for us, whilst me, Isōdia, and Amelia discuss our plans for pursuding the Elves"
-
(iīm lost.... ??? where is my character?)
-
(just arrive at the Green Dragon and you can discuss what we are going to about Gondor and Rohan with us ;D)
-
"i'm very nervous and tired from our journey. i hope i dont offend any1 else it's just iv been reading old magic books and things and they say a simple analyse of hobits that is claerly not true. dont judge a book by its cover" sed amelia goin a little pink :-[
-
"Ah, yes Amelia, you have learned a great lesson there" *Nienna smiled*
-
" now wot about this plan of action then? do you know wot ant higher elves hav sed on the matter"
-
"No, I'm afraid I don't" *Nienna said pushing her hair back in a stressed look* "I think we need to talk to Elrond himself, see if he can can talk to his people about it"
-
(oki ;D)
*Ferilia jumped off her horse and arrived in Green dragon*
-
"welcome ferilia" greeted amelia warmly glad for another persons help on the dicussion
-
"yes we are glad to have you on our side"
-
*Ferilia smiled and sat near Amelia*
"hello every1, what were you talking about"

amelia paced a little frustratedly and then sed
"i shall go and try and get sum1 to believe us and i shall travel fast on my horse, jennibe because she carries the jewel of gondor feilds, i wish you good luck and farewell"
-
*Nienna turned to Ferilia* "We are trying to find out ways of persuading other Elves to join us in a battle to bring Gondor and Rohan to peace"*Nienna saw Amelia leaving* "bye and good luck!"
(sure you can join Debz)
-
"farewell i'll b bac soon with news"

Name: Merry
You know the rest
*merry came along the green dragon and saw sam talking to some strangers* Hey...whats going on?
-
Sam had gathered quite a few Hobbits now, and he saw Merry. "Hello Merry...Can you help me?" He asked
-
Sure *said Merry* What's going on?
-
"Gondor and Rohan are fighting!" He said quickly "And the Elves over there want us to get as many Hobbits as we can to restore peace!"
-
But how do we support them? We're no good fighters *he said with some sarcasm in his voice* how could we help?
-
Sam sighed "I do not know. But we can try...Let's go" Sam walked back over to the Elves
-
*Merry followed Sam to the elves. He was a bit shy because he didn't know them*
-
*Nienna looked over to see Sam and Merry comming over* " Sam!! Have we got anything from your fellow Hobbit's? We have Amelia searching for help, see if she can reason with anyone"
-
Well....I can introduce myself *he said not that shy anymore* Im Merry Brandybuck, member of the old Fellowship.
-
*Isabell bowed* "Welcome Merry Brandybuck, it is always a pleasure and a honour to be in the company of a member from the old fellowship" *She smiled*
-
'looked at Isabell with a confused expression on his face* You dont have to bow for me...you're an elf. Im just a hobbit....
-
*Merry looked helpless to Sam, not knowing what to do* Yes...well...erhm... So, how can we help?
-
(Lol...sorry)
Sam nodded "Yes...how can we help?" he asked again
-
*Ferilia noticd that Merry has arrived, she stood up and bowed* "I'm Ferilia. It's so nice to meet you" *she said and sat down*
-
Instead of bowing for me the whole time, could someone please tell me what's going on?
-
a horse whined and as she came to a stop amelia jumped off
"im sorry friends no1 will help us! im so tired and weary, i hurried back as soon as i could"
-
"We are gathering as many Hobbit's and Elves as we can to try and stop the war between Rohan and Gondor, we are their last hope!" *Nienna turned to see Amelia and what she said* "I guess we are on our own then, we are going to have to get as many Hobbit's as we can. Merry will you help Sam with this?"
-
amelia stroked her beloved horse kindly and sed
" i cant beleive no1 would help us. i heard legolas might have been there but i didnt c him"
-
"Well whilst Merry and Sam are assembling the Hobbit's I might try and ride out myself, see other elves than just Elrond. I might seek out Galadriel"
-
"is there anything else i can do to help? i could try and find an old magic powerful enough to convince them but i dont think thats right really"
-
"No not yet Amelia, you have done enough and we should at least try a bit more instead of using magic straight away. I'm going to Mirkwood and then to Rivendell and I'm going to try and convice other elves then Elrond, he has no faith in men!" *Nienna went outside climbed upon her horse, Blaze, kicked off and headed towards Rivendell*
-
"ok, good luck"
-
*Nienna turned round in the saddle of her horse and waved goodbye to everyone*
-
(do you already have Galad?? if no, can i play 2 chars??? ;D ;D ;D)
*Ferilia walked over to her and asked* "Can i go with u?"
-
(Yeah corse you can ;D)
-
(fanx.. Galad will be blue then)
*Galadriel knew someone was coming, she waited*
-
*When Nienna had finished talking to the elves in Rivendell, she set off to Mirkwood, the ride was long and hard but Blaze was fast and he took her there in no time.*
*Nienna arrived at Mirkwood and waited for Galadriel*
-
Sam saw Isodia and walked over to her "M'lady, how many Hobbit's do you need?" He asked
-
*Ferilia walked in Green Dragon and sat down quietly*
(since when Galad lives in Mirkwood???!!! :-\)
*Galadriel walked out of house and smiled at Nienna*
-
(I dunno, I making it up as I go along, but if I'm wrong, my bad :-[)
*Nienna gave a little bow* "My lady Galadriel, we need your help. Gondor and Rohan have gone to war and me and a few of my friends are trying to raise a army to prevent it"
-
oh oh Can i please Be Arwen?? please please?
-
(Yep ;D)
-
Rides on her horse (name?)with a hooded cloak to cover her face looking for some peaceful that can tell her what is happening
-
Heads to the Shire to Find Nienna,resoucres told her that She had been there.
-
anyone still here?
-
earlier amelia had returned with news of no1 going to help she now returned to mirkwood to try and bound with some hobits and c if that would make them help
-
*Galadriel looked at Nienna and said* "And how can i help you, my friend?"
-
amelia turned the corner and saw galadriel and nienna and smiled
"oh good, your back and who is this? well anyway if your a friend of nienna your a friend of mine, im amelia nice to meet u"
-
(We're kind of in Mirkwood summer_fruits lol)
"Well I was wondering whether you get persuade some of the elves for us, one of my friends has already tried persuading Elrond but she didn't get anywhere but I went back looking for Legolas and there was no sign of him" *She sighed* "I wish men were at peace"
-
(o wel ill modify in a bit jus imagine im thur lol)
"i think legolas could help us if we could find him"
-
*Galadriel sighed* "I wish the same... Well, anyway, why are they in war?"
-
(megz has just gon offline so shud we carry on or w8 4 her)
-
"Yes, I think he could. He is a good friend of Gondor and Rohan" *Nienna looked at Galadriel* "I'm not sure really, when I found out I didn't ask questions I just worked on preventing it. I think it might be because Aragorn chose Arwen over Eowyn and it just turned into hatred, silly really"
-
"yes"
-
"I will speak with elves... But iīm not sure if they will agree, they donīt like war u know."
(er....sheīs online i think)
-
" we try and try ut nothings working, no1 cares the wars just going to happen mayb us 3 could go c arogon! yes!!!! that might work!" ;D
-
Sam motioned to Merry and pulled him to the side when he came "We have got lots of Hobbits Merry. But I do not think that they understand it all really. Are you going to fight?" He whispered quickly
-
"shall we go c the king?"
-
Arwen rides up to the groups on her white horse then jumps down and greets them all
-
Sam motioned to Merry and pulled him to the side when he came "We have got lots of Hobbits Merry. But I do not think that they understand it all really. Are you going to fight?" He whispered quickly
It would be better if we dont have to. I dont hink many hobbits will listen or even care. Maybe Pippin will help. Or do you know others? *he askedsam*
-
"greetings everyone I've traveled from the north see Nienna or Samwise or anyone that can explain the events that have accure"
-
(plz donīt post in blue, cos I play 2 chars and it is very confusing if Galad and Arw both posts in blue, but if ya want i can change Galadīs color ;D)
*Ferilia felt very unneeded, because everyone was ignoring her and nobody wanted her help*
*Galadriel was very worried, she didnīt like wars and was very sad because now they asked her to help them*
-
*Arwen was getting very annoyed she'd been traveling for 5 days straight and no one was giving her any answers*
"Galadriel ,what is happen why are the Elves and Hobbits uniting"
-
(fanx)
"Rohan and Gondor are ready to war" (i think :-\) "elves wants us to help them"
-
she signs in sadness and grief
"is there no way of any peace?"
-
"I donīt know.. I really donīt wanna be in war with them... but what can i do?"
-
"then u and I and anyone else that wants to refrain from war,will go and set a gathering between Rohan and Gondor for peace"
-
"and you think theyīll listen to us? They are MEN, they donīt know anything but war... They wonīt listen"
-
"That's why we are resolving to war. Men won't listen they are ready to kill eachother off and the only way of preventing it is war because we have already tried to get them to reason. They are both great friends of mine and I hate to have to go to war" *Nienna put her head down and sighed. She had grief and sadness all over her face. She really didn't want to go to war but she didn't want her friends getting killed either*
-
*Galadriel decided* "I will fight"
-
"Are you sure Galadriel?"
-
"Yes, i am... I donīt wanna stand here and watch elves dying in the war"
-
"Thankyou! Now we need to find more elves, maybe if we could find Legolas he could help, I know he too, is good friends with Gondor and Rohan and would hate to see them in such times"
-
"Donīt forget that elves will follow me... I donīt need to find them"
-
"Ah, yes of corse, well could you see what you can do for me? But I must head back to the Shire, they'll all be wanting news"
-
"Iīll go with you, but first i will tell my friend to tell to elves to get ready for war" *Galadriel called one elf and told him what to do* "weīll meet in Shire after 5 days... Then we will go to war.. "*Galadriel climbed on her horse* "are we going?"
-
"Yes" *Nienna climbed upon her horse Blaze and kicked off*
-
(Were are you up to cos I come in when everyone sees everyone fighting?)
-
(me and Galad are traveling to the Shire where is everyone else is trying to bring a army together, there is no fighting yet :))
-
OK could you IM me when they see the battles
-
(oki sure) ;D
-
(and me tooß Where am I with sam?)
-
(i dunno where r u ;D)
-
(id lyk to join but i cant be bogged to read the story, can i hav a quick sum up of it?)
-
(Gondor and Rohan are at war and me and some friends are getting together a army of Elves and Hobbit's, Sam and Merry are sorting out the Hobbit army and I have found Galadriel, so she is fighting for us and she is going to get a Elf army together and now we are heading back to the Shire to give news)
-
(ok, whose side is these armies on)
-
(no ones, we are trying to preventing it but the thing is Gondor and Rohan won't make peace without a war so we are going with as many Hobbit's and Elves as possible to try and stop it form happening even if we have to fight)
-
(o ok)
name: Eltharion
race: elf
occupation: exiled elven prince
description: long black hair, hard grey eyes, tall and slender
weapons: long bow made of yew, Rashazar (magical elven sword)
Eltharion ran through the woods swiftly. The war between rohan and gondor had left him in a difficult position. He declared himself neutral to both sides and is now not welcome in either kingdoms, the elves of course will not welcome him, he was exiled for killing another elf in a fight. He is considering to live with the half-lings for a while. he knows nothing of the elven and hobbit plans to form an army.
-
(er....where were we? iīm lost...again) ??? ??? ???
-
(Me and you are on our way to the Shire)
-
(okay)
*Galadriel looked back* "hurry, we must be there as fast as we can"
-
"Ok" *She kicked Blaze to go faster, and faster he went*
-
Eltharion heard horses running through the wood. He got close to try and work out who was coming. He readied his bow just in case.
-
*Galadriel noticed Eltharion and pointed at him* "who is that?"
-
*Arwen waits for Elharion at the edge of the forest with a horse for him
She waits and hopes that he will join her peace alliegence
-
The exiled prince strode torward the elves. "Who are you?" he asked.
-
"Iīm Galadriel" she said* "who are you?"
-
*Nienna walked forward on her horse* "And Iam Nienna"
-
"Mi'Lady Galadirel I am sorry...I did not recognise you. I am the Eltharion, formally Prince Eltharion of the elven kingdoms in the far east. I am at your service" he bowed. "And it is a pleasure to meet you aswel Lady Nienna"
-
*Nienna did a little bow* "And what brings you here?"
-
"Well as you probably know, I was exiled from my home, and after declaring neutrality in the conflict between Gondor and Rohan, i have been shunned by both empires. I am now heading west, where to I do not know, but I will get there eventually"
-
*Galadriel smiled* "you donīt have to bow to me. My friend, iīm ready to help if you need anything"
-
Rides up to Galadriel and Nienna
"I've changed my mind,I'll come with,even though this not the best path for these two countries"
-
"Ok, your welcome to come"
-
*Galadriel jumped on her horse* "now quickly... we must hurry to arrive in time"
-
"I know not what quest you are on Lady Galadriel but it must be a worth one for one such as yourself to be going. With your permission I will go also, who knows maybe if I can show the elves that i still care about their afairs my exile will be reversed." Eltharion moved out of the shaddows and strode across the clearing and his features became more visable, most predominately a Livid scar across his face that the others had not noticed until now. "You have my sword at your command Lady"
-
*Galadriel smiled*"Thank you my friend. I really appreciate your will to help. I promise that iīll tell you everything about this all later. Now we must hurry." *She looked at Nienna and Arwen* "Now we must ride. she smiled. To Shire.*
-
"The Elves will be here soon...What are we going to do?" Sam whispered to Merry
-
*Arwen rides swiftly beside Nienna and her Grandmother
towards the shire Curious of the Male Elf and Why he was so quick to change his mind
-
*Nienna was still galloping on her horse, they had nearly reached the Shire* "Not far now. I can see the borders of the Shire up ahead"
-
"Ah the shire, I havn't been here since I was a boy" Eltharion smiled for the first time since beeing in the company of the others. "All though that was over 2500 years ago" he laughed merrily seeming cheered by the presence of the others and the familiar land. "I'll be 2987 this year" he thought and he was hit by a sudden pang of home sickness.
-
*Galadriel smiled at Eltharion* "youīre an old man then" *she giggled quietly, but as she remembered her own age she stopped*
-
"Me? Old?" Eltharion laughed. "Maybe in mortal years, but I am only slightly older than Elronds daughter, what was her name again? Anyway it doesn't matter Elrond dislikes me to say the least."
-
*Nienna halted at the Green Dragon* "We're here!" *She jumped off her horse and strode into the pub*
-
Sam saw Nienna and he waved to show where he and Merry was
-
*Nienna smiled and went over* "Sam, I have found Galadriel,we have hope at last and we have also brought Eltharion, he is a stranger but is willing to help us. How is it going with the Hobbit's?"
-
Sam nodded, taking in the strangers "Good, good...We have plenty of Hobbits" He said "But I do not believe that they know fully what it is about"
-
"Do they not?" *Nienna pondered for a while* "We need to tell them everything. How many do you have?"
-
Sam looked around "Roughly, about 300. Is that enough?" He asked
-
'*Galadriel laughed and jumped off her horse, she looked back at Eltharion and said* "come on... and Elrondīs daughters name is Arwen by the way"
-
Sam looked around "Roughly, about 300. Is that enough?" He asked
"Yes!. 300 hundred!" *Said Nienna in surprise* "I never thought we'd have that many Hobbit's. Good work Sam" *She smiled* "Now we just need to find a way to tell them all the full plan"
-
Sam smiled "Maybe you could talk to them. Most of them have never seen a Elf before, and will believe you!"
-
Eltharion looked down at the hobbit. Small of stature, but his spirt and courage were strong. "Well, well, you must be Sam Gamgee, I've heard alot about your adventures, You're the mayor currently aern't you?"
-
Sam looked up, he hadn't spotted the other Elf. He bowed "Yes, I am the Mayor of the Shire" He said
-
Sam smiled "Maybe you could talk to them. Most of them have never seen a Elf before, and will believe you!"
"Ok, but we need a place where we get them all to come"
-
Eltharion smiled. "You need not bow to me Master Samwise, if anything I should be bowing to you. Your exploits are legendary, and I am a nobody"
-
*Galadriel started to speak in a loud voice* "i have decided... we will help you.. elves will be here in 3 days"
-
"well maybe i could help"
a girl jumped down from a rock, her blonde hair flowing delicately
" i am friends with nienna and i know all, i am friend of amelia also aswell as you all" she looked at them all in turn and touched each on the shoulder and sed "u r all brave, i can see but now is the time you need ur courage most but firstly we cud take the hobbits to a under ground crystal cave i no of with running water we cud take them ther"
-
"please sum2 speak, i want to help"
-
"You and I seem quite young in my opinion Eltharion,"
as she passed by him to greet samwise
"It is good to see you again Samwise,it's been a long time too long" she smiled at him
-
Eltharion jumped. He must be losing his touch, he had not noticed Arwen at all up until now.
-
"well maybe i could help"
a girl jumped down from a rock, her blonde hair flowing delicately
" i am friends with nienna and i know all, i am friend of amelia also aswell as you all" she looked at them all in turn and touched each on the shoulder and sed "u r all brave, i can see but now is the time you need ur courage most but firstly we cud take the hobbits to a under ground crystal cave i no of with running water we cud take them ther"
(What's your name?)
*Nienna turned to see her good friend and gave her a hug* "Hey, where is this cave you speak of?"
-
(okay, iīm confused.. where is Galad and where is my other char Ferilia?) :-[
-
Eltharion sensed something was wrong. "Nienna get down" he shouted. He ran towards her and threw her to the ground an arrow streaming past where she had been a moment before and glancing harmlessly off of Eltharions shield. Suddenly they were surrounded by Gondorian Rangers. The Leader stepped forward and demanded their immeadiate surrender.
-
*Arwen fell to the ground with an Arrow in her shoulder
-
the girl who had given advice answered
"it is celestria but it is of little importance we must send the hobbits to the cave"
-
*Galadriel started to become hysteric* "what is happening? *she yelled*
-
Eltharion screamed with rage. He ducked to avoid another arrow, then he jumped and twirled through the air. Bringing his sword to bear he instantaneously beheaded one of the rangers. He turned to Parry the blow from another human, Feinting to the left and then slicing his sword through the stomach of the attacker. He dropped his sword and drew his bow from his back and loosed and arrow into a ranger who was about to stab Arwen through her heart. The man fell to the ground with an arrow in his neck.

Suddenly they were surrounded by Gondorian Rangers. The Leader stepped forward and demanded their immeadiate surrender.
"T-Thankyou, you saved me!" *Said Nienna still in shock. She then noticed that Arwen had been injured and she started to crawl over to her but she then felt cold up against her neck and she looked up to see a ranger holding a sword to her throat, he bore a white tree on his shirt. Nienna gulped* "What do you want with me?"
-
By now the other elves had realised what was happening and were preparing to fight. The rangers had lost their advantage and retreated. Eltharion rose his bow in the air and cried "No human can best prince Elharion!" At that precise moment an arrow flew through the air hitting him in the abdomen. He hit the ground hard. He felt cold blood trickle across his fingers as he held his hand to his wound. With his last strength he loosed an arrow at the only remaining ranger that threatened Nienna. He heard him die, and then he lost conciousness.
-
"whats happening is we are all in danger stayin here to the cave and send a messenger to tell the 300 hobits to meet us there"
she rose up on a rown horse behind the rock and gestured to follow as she started to head to the secret cave
-

-
(i thought i killed the guy wiv the sword to ur throat with my last stength)
-
(Did you? Man this r/p is moving too fast)
*Nienna sprung to her feet and got out her bow and started shooting arrows at then attacking rangers, they were comming out of every direction. She kept shooting arrow's whilst running over to where Eltharion lay, she knelt down beside him and protected him as he did to her. She killed every ranger that came at her, but she could not hold on for long. She needed some help!"
-
(Iīm leaving this roleplay it is a bit too confusing for me, i asked what is happening and no one explained....eh...)

" quickly nienna put him on the back of my horse!"

*Galadriel slapped Eltharion* "r u alive?"
-
(where am I? Im lost!!!)
(Your still in the pub with Sam)
*Nienna picked up Eltharion and put him gently on the back of the horse. She suddenley felt pain in her shoulder, she had been hit! She quickly spun round and started shooting again* "I'm running out of arrows! We need to get out of here and quick!" *She whistled and out of no where and black horse emerged from the shadows, it galloped over to where Nienna stood, she climbed on her horse and she got shot again in almost the same place, she pulled out the arrows and kicked off on her horse, she got shot again but she ignored it* "COME ON!!!" *she shouted back to where Eltharion lay on the horse*
-
merry rode ahead with Sam and some other hobbits to help their friends....
-
(yay ;D finally)
-
(please tell me what happened....I cant read all the pages...)
-
(well eltharion met up with the others and then they met wiv the hobbits...the hbboits went off to arrange a meeting and then the elves got jumped by the rangers, loads od peeps got shto in the shoulder and thats about it really)
-
(is it during the attack or after it?)
-
(not sure...i think most of the rangers hav been defeated but sum r still shooting at us)
-
(And I'm escaping on my horse)(during the attack)
*Nienna noticed Eltharion still layed there on the horse, rangers were comming in to him. She turned back and grabbed the reins of the horse and pulled it along. She had Rangers at her tail, shooting at will, she prayed help would come soon*
-
*Merry showed up, juzst in time. He and his fellow hobbits kicked a$$ of the rangers. The rangers were defeated and so they could take care of the wounded*
(sorry...I dont have much inspiration :P)
-
(lmao...classic i must giv u a round of applause ;D)
-
(Ah Well ::))
*Nienna halted and looked back she saw the Hobbit's had come and they had defeated the enemy* "At last" *She whispered to herself. She started to gallop back, she got off her horse and gently lifted Eltharion off the other horse and put him on the ground*
-
Eltharion awoke spitting blood. He looked at the arrow sticking from his side. He grasped the arrow and ripped it from his body. He winced with pain.
-
*merry ran over to Eltharion to bind his wounds* I hope this helps....
-
yeah bleeding to death her grandma little help from someone could be simply delightFUL! >:(
-
"Forget about me" Eltharion whispered. "Help Galadriel"
-
"Ok, Merry look after Eltharion whilst I go and see Galadriel"
*Nienna went up to Galadriel and lent down beside her to see if she was ok*
-
*Merry called for another hobbit to help Eltharion and went to galadriel to help her* M'lady...Im not a great healer, but I hope this soften your pain and stop your wounds bleeding... *he took some herbs he had taken from home and put them on her wounds. After that he bind them*
-
Eltharion watched Nienna walk away. She looked beautiful in the moonlight. He became dizzy and lay down again.
-
WHEN DID GALADRIEL GET HIT!!
-
(hey can i join? if its not 2 late. it says on the first page u need an eowyn so can i plz b her?!)
-
(Yeah sure ;D)
-
(when u sed 'Galadirel got hit by an arrow')
-
(so where can i b? lol. i know what's happening, a friend told me!)
-
(maybe you can be a hobbit? Then you are ith me helping the wounded: We could need another hobbit :) )
-
*Nienna stayed lent down beside Galadriel as she awoke from unconsiousness* "Are you ok Galad?"
-
*Galadriel woke up* "wa....what? where am i?"
-
M#Lady...you are here on the battlefield. Rangers were attacking us. *Merry said*
-
"They attacked with full force, we were out numbered, but then the Hobbit's came" *She smiled at Merry....But then fell to the ground, she felt the pain in her shoulder again and then she saw a arrow in her stomach which she didn't relise was there, all the pain came rushing back and she started to loose consiousness. Her eyes flicked up and down, she could barley keep them open*
-
Eltharion was standing when he saw Nienna fall. He staggered torwards her. He knelt over her. She was still breathing. "Nienna" he said softly. But the pain in his side returned and he lost conciousness again.
-
*Nienna's eyes flicked open again, she saw the dark blue sky and then she went back to unconciousness again*
-
*Ten minutes had passed and Nienna regained full conciousness. Though she was stil very weak, she sat up and looked over at Eltharion, he had saved and she was very greatfull for it. She whispered something in elvish to help him try and regain conciousness*
(Sorry had to double post, it's my 400th post lol ::) :P)
-
(Iīm sorry lover birds, but where is Galadriel?) ::) :P
*Galadriel woke up and saw that everyone is on the floor, she stood up and looked around* "Bloody rangers" *she whispered and started to look for them who were wounded*
-
(What's happened and where is Sam?)
-
(I dunno... I think youīre still in the green dragon. I think we were attacked by rangers... :-\ er...why?? :-\)
-
('Cos I'm lost)
-
(Sam your still in the pub, Galad you were layed next to me unconcious but looks like your concious again :P)
-
(Yes Iīm feeling great again ::) :P still wounded tho)
-
*Nienna remained next to Eltharion, she was still whispering something in elvish trying to help him to regain conciousness, she had her eyes closed and was concentrating very hard*
-
(Ok, I'll rephrase my question...where the hell is everyone else?)
-
(Everybody is either in the Green Dragon or outside it ;D)
-
(Ok rephrase it again...what happened?)
-
Eltharion awoke. Before he knew what he was doing he was kissing Nienna. He withdrew quickly. "Sorry....I dont know what came over me" he muttered
-
Arwen followed the group even though when back when she was stabbed with in an arrow in her shoulder and no onw helped her!
-
Eltharion awoke. Before he knew what he was doing he was kissing Nienna. He withdrew quickly. "Sorry....I dont know what came over me" he muttered
*Nienna pulled back in shock and then started to blush* "Urm....Yeah....I better go and see to Arwen, she's wounded* "Nienna said unsure of what to say. She made her way over to Arwen* "Kepp still Arwen, I'm going to pull this arrow out of you" *She gave the arrow a pull, it came out quickly. Nienna threw it on the floor and pulled out some evlish medicine, rolled up Arwen sleeve, got a cloth, poured some medicine onto it and placed it gently on Arwen's shoulder*
-
*when the arrow came out she scream loud in pain thinking that she was stroke by a poisoned arrow
She started to patt heavily with pain engulfing her entire body
-
Eltharion could have stabbed himself. "You fool" he grumbled. He got up and made sure he went in the opposite direction of Nienna.
-
"You should be alright now" *Nienna said to Arwen with a smile on her face. She then walked over to a small rock and sat down thinking about what just happened between her and Eltharion, she was still in shock but she was smiling, she had no idea he liked her*
-
*Arwen was shaking all over her body and was feeling really cold,having trouble hearing things
-
*Nienna looked up and saw Arwen and rushed over to her* "Arwen?!? Arwen are you ok?!?"
-
*Arwen saw nienna she was saying something but couldn't understand and she couldn't see her very will. she wanted to respond but her tongue and mouth felt so heavy.Also she wanted to do was sleep.
-
Eltharion climbed on his horse. "I've had enough of this charade" he grumbled. The prince looked down at his right arm, none of the others had noticed the Eye of Sauron emblazened on his arm. He pulled down his sleeve and galloped eastward.
-
*Nienna looked at Eltharion riding away in the distance, she had a tear trickling down her face, she didn't want him to leave her alone, or what felt like it*
-
Eltharion rode eastward for 2 days. "I was fool to think I had changed" he thought. "I always have been and always will be bound to the power of darkness" he grumbled. He was returning to the easterling king for a new assignment. He knew he'd be punished for his betrayl but they wouldn't harm him. He brooded in his thoughts. "I might end up killing them all" he realised but he continued. "Maybe I will have a chance to sever my links with those easterlings, but I know 1 thing, their king will die by my hand" he thought.
-
*Nienna climbed her horse and kicked off at a fast gallop, not sure of where she was going, her eye sight was blurry with tears, she thought Eltharion liked her and when he kissed her she felt something and then he leaves. She came to a halt at a lake nearby The Green Dragon Pub, she jumped off and slumped down, leaning her back on a tree. She just sat there, tears stopped falling and she went into a daze and her face was as blank as death. She was thinking about the attack, when Eltharion saved her, the kiss, everything in the last 24 hours.*
-
"Damn that fool" Eltharion screamed as he galloped across the plains of rohan. He had been in a tavern in Edoras when he'd got into a fight. The attacker had slashed at his arm and had seen the mark upon his arm. Now he was racing for his life persued by Rohirrum riders.
-
*Nienna suddenley flinched and felt like she had just awoke from a dream and she thought* "Arwen!!" *She whispered, she had left her all alone. She suddenley sprung up from her spot on the ground and whistled for her horse, Blaze, he came to her straight away. She mounted him and shot off like a bullet. She reached The Green Dragon Pub to find Arwen on the floor, she jumped off nd rushed over to her* "Arwen!?!" *She said shaking her* "Arwen!!Are you ok?!?!"
-
*Arwen's eyes were open but the iris were at the top of her head and she had rustic breathing,the spot on her shoulder where the arrow was was mened up the area around it had a vilent shade of red inbed in the skin.Her body was frale and shaky if she didn't get help she would die soon.
-
Eltharions horse stumbled and he was thrown off. The riders were nearly upon him. HE stumbled to a small hillock and drew his sword ready. Moments later he was surrounded by the riders. The leader stepped forward "Drop the weapon elf" he said. Eltharion thought for a second and then dropped the swod. An hout later he was infront of King Eomer in Edoras.
-
*Nienna knew she couldn't help Arwen on her own so she jumped up from the ground and ran into the pub and burst in through the doors, and she ran over to the table of hobbit's and some elves, heads turned at her sudden appearance.* "Arwen's in a bad way!She needs help!!I don't know what to do!" *Nienna fell to her knees almost crying, no one had ever seen her this way before*
-
the doors burst open again and there stood celestria with 3 arrows in her body. she looked around and saw nienna and whispered " hi how are you" before falling in pain
-
*Nienna got up and wipped her tears and rushed over to Celestria* "Celestria!!" *She said, she didn't know what to do, she wasn't good with medicine and she had too much on her mind. Without thinking she pulled the arrows out, got a cloth, put some elvish medicine on it and gently put it on her wounds* "I hope that helps" *She said then remembering Arwen* "I need you to help me! Arwen's dying!!" *She said in a panick*
-
celestria revived with the help of the medicine and looked at her, wiping her tears,
" maybe my old magic may help, hurry" clutching her side were a arrow had hit she ran to her horse and sed,
"beware of the feared of the woods! they got me"
-
*Nienna followed Celestria. She then knelt down by Arwen's side*
-
"arwen," celestria spoke gently and stroked her hair off her face, "arwen, can you tell me what happened and them i can know how to help you" she turned to nienna " do you know? i think i'll need to make a potion to heal her but i might need to use special herbs and essences"
-
*"aimmm" Arwen moaned she tired to speak but her mouth felt too heavy
-
"She got hit by arrows from the Gondorian Rangers, I tried healing her but she just went like this" *Nienna said weakly. She still had Eltharion on her mind, but she was trying to focus on other things*
-
"ok then i expect this simple vile will help" she sprinkled a few drops of clear liquid on each wound from the bottle
"its phoenix tears i always carry them and i always have unicorn horn powder" :P
-
*Nienna gave a weak smile. She got up and started to wander off on her own*
-
" were are you going" she called after her
-
"No where" *Nienna said weakly still walking*
-
"what is wrong friend? are you sad about all war? we can make a difference" she sighed and sed "small person, big voice"
-
*Nienna turned round with sorrow on her face* "It's everything" *She said quietly, she put her head down, turned round and started walking again not sure of where she was going*
-
celestria sighed and sang elvish in an enchanting voice to calm herself and hopefully nienna
-
"Do not try and lighten my spirits with elvish songs. My sorrow runs too deep"
-
"well i can atleast try to help mine!!" she sed in a raised voice. she continued to sing and the clouds above her head cleared showing a beautiful tranquil sky
-
*Nienna walked to Blaze and mounted him, she shot off into the shadows of the nearby forest. She didn't know where she was going, her eyes were black and she could see nothing. She was panicking but she kept going*
-
"oh no you dont" celestria mounted her horse and quickly followed, keeping atleast some distance behind so not seen
-
*Nienna stopped her horse and dismounted, she sat down and leant against a big tree in the shadows. She took her flute from her pocket and started playing a tune, not a tune to manipulate people, just a normal tune*
-
celestria stopped to and watched and wondered. she collected fire wood and then brought it to nienna whilst making up a song to go along with the music, she lit a fire and danced around it trying to show nienna she was there for her
-
*Nienna noticed Celestria and stopped playing* "I want to be left alone!" *She didn't mean to be nasty but she needed time to think. She walked over to Blaze and mouted him* "I will be back when I'm ready" *She said firmly, and with that she galloped off into the distance*
-
celestria sighed and turned to put out her fire when gondorian rangers ambushed her! she screamed long and loud
-
*Nienna turned back in shock. She rode back to where Celestria stood and jumped off Blaze. She pulled out her sword and started killing the rangers at will*
-
celestria was released from their grasps so she pulled out her own sword and started killing them when a few were dead she shouted to nienna, " get on your horse, we'll leave" she mounted her own and stabbed another ranger
-
*Nienna nodded and jumped on her horse. She pulled out her bow and arrow and she started shooting at the rangers as they rode off* "They will follow us!" *Nienna said to celetria quietly*
-
"then we must ride long and fast" she replied, egging her horse on
-
"We can't go back to the Shire" *Nienna said still shooting down rangers*
-
"were can we go?" celestria rode ahead and dropped parallising potion filled bombs in the rode quickly and rhen carried on riding
-
"I'm not sure" *Nienna said. She suddenley felt a shot of pain in her back, she put her hand behind her and pulled out a arrow. She turned round and looked, more rangers were coming out of no where* "We're surrounded!" *Nienna shouted*
-
"Why do you bear the mark of the dark lord!?" demanded king Eomer. Eltharion remained silent. "I will not ask you again elf, Why do you bear the mark of sauron!?" King Eomer said. "I do not have to answer myself to the likes of you, human!" Eltharion replied cooly. "Throw him in the dungeon" commanded King Eomer.
-
*Nienna and Celestria knew there was no way of escaping so they both stopped* "What do you want with us?" *Nienna said firmly* "I cannot give you a answer, but we have been ordered to take you to Minas Tirith" *One of the rangers said pointing his bow at them*
-
Eltharion lay in his cell on a heap of hay. He was deep in thought and he did not notice the man in the other gawping at him. "What is an elf doing here?" the man said timidly. "What does it look like I'm doing?" Eltharion said back. "I'm sitting here in a cell the same as you". Eltharion ahd studied the cell carefully earlier. There was no way out except the way he'd come in.
-
"Well you'll have to take me to Minas Tirith with force!" *Said Nienna firmly* "Bind their hands" *The ranger said and with that Nienna pulled out her bow and arrow and started shooting rangers, but there were too many. They came in around her and pulled her off her horse, the ranger in command walked up to her and put his sword to her neck, another ranger did the same to celestria* "You will come with us to Minas Tirith!! Bind their hands and blind fold them" *The ranger said walking away. Nienna could see nothing, she could hear faint voices around her and she tried whispering to Celestria but she got kicked for trying to communicate with others*
-
Eltharion awoke suddenly. He had a terrible dream where he had seen everyone he loved being killed. He looked around dazed and noticed the door to his cell was open. He crept out cautiously. He ascended the stairs and entered the great hall, something was wrong. The hall was covered in bodies. He saw the main table and crept over to it. He felt the King's neck, they were still alive, It was as if they had all suddenly fell asleep. He saw an unconcious soldier and quickly stripped him, soon he was in a full rohan uniform. The elf crept out into the night. All through the city of Edoras everyone was in the same condition, as if they were sleeping. Eltharion took his chance and fled the city on the finest steed he could find. He decided to ride to Gondor, but before he left he stopped to stay the night in a barn on the outskirts of rohan. There in silence he drew a blade and painfully cut the mark from his arm. As he bandaged the wound in silence he thought "No more am I a servant to darkness"
-
*The ride was long and hard to Minas Tirith but when they got their her blind fold was taken off and she was infront of King Aragorn. She was pushed onto her knees and Celestria was beside her* "What do you want with us?!?" *Nienna said almost shouting" *Aragorn was not his usual self since war was declared between Gondor and Rohan* "I have heard you have plans to stop Gondor and Rohan going to war" *He said raising a eye brow. Nienna stayed silent* "Gondor and Rohan are going to war and i won't let you stop us!" *Aragorn said. Nienna turned to celetria and then back at Aragorn* "I won't let Rohan and Gondor go to war!" "I'm not hearing anymore of this!Put them in cells and don't let your eyes off of them!" *Aragorn said firmly* "You won't get away with this" *Nienna shouted as she was taken away*
-
Yey now I can come in
Arenea looked at her father and then at the prisoners not knowing who they were "But father theyre only trying to help"
-
"Take them away!" *Aragorn commanded*
*Nienna and Celestria got dragged to their cells by the guards. Light was shinning through the bars on the window of the cell, Nienna sat in a corner covered by shadow, she softly played her flute, she tryed a tune to manipulate the guards but it didn't work, her mind was else where so she gave up and put her flue away*
-
Arenea dodgeing some arrows went to the bars and leant through "What has happened?"
-
"Why should I tell you?" *Nienna said with her head down* "You are daughter to the king, you are surely going to tell him everything"
-
"Dad has changed all of my brothers have noticed ... he's obsessed with this war he's made everyone fight
-
"I have noticed" *Nienna said raising her head* "He won't even let people help him anymore" *Nienna sighed and layed back against the wall*
-
"How do you think we feel we've been trying to aswell and we're his kids ... listen I can get you out of here if you can trust me"
-
*Nienna raised her eye brow* "How do I know I can trust you? And how exactly are you planning our escape? I mean it won't be easy" *Nienna sunk down into her corner and started thinking, what was out there for her? She started wandering about Eltharion where was he? and why did he leave? she thought*
-
"I live here and I know tricks... as for trusting me .... Do you know Eldarion?"
-
"No, I don't, but I do know a Eltharion" *When she spoke of Eltharion she sunk lower and put her head down*
-
"i'm a little scared" whispered celestria to nienna
-
"Why do you bow your head?" she turned to Celestria "Don't be if you trust me I can get you out of here"
-
"What's the point in escaping? Their just going to find us again!" *Nienna said putting her head in her hands, sorrow was on her face and she was feeling fustrated*
-
Thats where my brothers come in we dont like to go by the rules so they will be able to keep you safe ... we can bring you to my mum" she stuck her hand through the bars to shake hands "Trust me"
-
"i'll try and trus you but with these circumstances im disheartened so i wish not offend you since your helping us."
-
"Thanks ... by the way Im Arenea" Arenea took out a knife and tapped 2 bars then took her knife and hit it, it broke off the gab was big enought to let a thin person through. Arenea stuck out her hand while alot of men gathered behind her "Come on!"
-
*Nienna sighed* "Well ok, but you really didn't have to help us" *She said, she didn't want to go back, she didn't want her mind fixed on Eltharion again. She stumbled up, she was still in pain from all the arrows, she jumped up onto the window legde and climbed through the small gap*
-
"wow, you waste no time"
-
"Well its a short life whats the point?"
-
"true, were will this hole lead to and d'you think they'll be any guards?"
-
"It leads to the door of the prisons.. HA if there were my brothers would have sent them somehwere"
-
"oh good" celestria said looking releived
-
"Oh you have great faith in me" she pulled a slate aside and light flooded through the tunnel
-
*Nienna followed quietly at the back with her head down*
-
Arenea climbed out and pulled the other 2 out as 15 men marched up behind her
-
"Where abouts are you taking us?" *Nienna asked lifting her head up*
-
"To the top of Minas Tirith where my mother klives... she will look after you" The men drew their swords
-
"Ok, but that means we will be trapped here won't it?" *Nienna questioned*
-
"She doesnt want the war anymore than you do ... she will help you" The men crowded round them Arenea jumped on the tallest one "Jump on and draw your swords"
-
"urm....ok" *Nienna said drawing her sword and jumping on the back of a man she didn't know*
-
As the men started to run "Oh thats Draeno"
-
*Nienna gave a little weak wave* "Urm..Hi Draeno"
-
Sory had to go to supper
"Oh dont worry dont bother" Arenea looked around "Im on Eldarion ... he's the oldest"
-
"Ok, but what are we going to do? Me and Celestria can't stay here forever, we must go and warn the rest of our group!" *Nienna said, not wanting to stay in Minas Tirith, she wanted to be free again*
-
Behind Arenea a different boy spoke "At the top when we are safe tell us where they are and we will tell them"
-
"Thankyou, but I really don't want to stay here, no offence to your people but I want to be with my friends and I think Celestria feels the same" *Nienna said sighing*
-
then another boy said "Yes we know how you feel but its to dangerous ... youll just stay here for .. well we dont know how long but you wont be here forever"
-
"ok" *Nienna mumbled. She put her head down and thought of her friends, Hobbit's and elves, she also thought of Eltharion and where he was, she thought of freedom and much she took it for granted and she thought of her favourite places in Middle-Earth and wished she was there*
-
The elves rode across the plains of Gondor. Eltharion had rode to Rivendel and recruited reinforcements. There were about a 100 or so elves galloping across the plains. The elves were all armoured for war. They new it was probably suicide, but they were going to assault Minas-Tirith under darkness. The gondorians were expecting an attack from the west by rohan, they didn't expect the elves to get involved.
-
Arenea looked down sadly
-
"How long does it take to get up to the top?" *Nienna asked*
-
"Minas Tirith isnt small" 5 mins later "Here we are" Arenea jumped off then ran into the house to meet Arwen
(We need an Arwen)
-
(Arwen003 was playing her back when we were in the Shire but I can play her for a while ;D)
*Arwen greeted Arenea with a hug* "hello Arenea who are these people you bring to Minas Tirith" *Arwen questioned*
*Nienna jumped off the back of Daeven (if that's right) and went up beside Arenea and knelt down in a bow* "Iam Nienna and this is my good friend Celestria" *She said pointing to Celestria*
-
Arenea elbowed her "Dont bow" she whispered "they have come to stop the war Dad put them in jail I got them out and brought the here ... and there are more"
-
*Nienna quickly arose*
*Arwen sighed* "This must stop! I hate war and your father is getting worse by the day" *She started walking around in thought*
-
"I know that mum thts why these people have come to help us... would you like us to bring the rest up?"
-
"Yes, but how can these people help us? If they come here then they are trapped and have no way of helping as they won't be able to persuade your father" *Arwen pondered for a while and stopped walking*
-
"Mum We have a bigger chance with these to help us than we do on our own!" she paused "Shall we get the rest?"
-
"Yes we do have a better chance but they can't do much, unless..." *She paused* "They have allies gathering armies to come and head Rohan off" *She paused again* "Far as I know we are exspecting a attack from Rohan tonight. And yes, you may bring the others" *She said giving a weak smile*
-
The boys disspeared "Yes but mum what are we going to? they have come here to stop the fight not to aid it"
-
"I know Arenea but it may be the only way" *She said turning back* "Now, I need to think about this for a while ok? So I'll just be in here if you need me" *She said pointing to a door and walking towards it*
-
"Um mum shall I take them to my room?"
-
"Take them where you think is safe" *She said walking into the room*
"Where do we go?" *Nienna asked*
-
Arenea sighed "Follow me" They went up about 4 lots of tairs and they reached a massive room "Stay here"
-
The elves reached the walls. They dismounted silently. They had still not been detected. The small forced climbed the walls and killed the guards silently. "Remember, Aragorn is mine and mine alone" Eltharion said gravely. The elves split into groups of 5 and spread into the city. Soon sounds of battle could be heard. House caught fire and there was chaos. Eltharion's group headed torward the main keep swiftly.
-
*Nienna heard the battle going on and ran to the window* "Arenea!!" *She shouted* "Arenea!!Minas Tirith is under attack!!"
-
Arenea ran to the window and froze
-
"Do you want me do do anything?" *Nienna asked*
-
"Oh no what are we going to do? She looked down and "..... Eltharion?" She ran down the stairs to her mother "WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!"
-
Eltharion fought his way up the main street, he made no effort to conceal himself. The elves killed as they went. A man jumped at Eltharion, but the elf dodged and put a blade through the mans neck. He had decided how he would end the war between Rohan and Gondor...He would kill both there kings.
-
"What!?!" *Nienna said chasing after her* "Eltharion's here?" *She asked in shock*
*Arwen came rushing out* "Right! Get ready for war!" *She said raising her voice and drawing her sword*
-
Arenea ran all the way down to Eltharion took out her sword and stooped his blade touching her then she read his mind "Eltharion you can't"
-
"I will do what I like and none will stop me" Eltharion stated pushing past the elf.
(by the way whose ur mother in the rp?)
-
Arwen and my father is Aragorn... and Im supposed to be half sister or sommit like that
She pushed back with more force "I am not an elf I am half man half elf!"
-
*Nienna followed Arenea, pulling out her sword and then stood stiff when she saw Eltharion. Suddenley a guard came from behind her but she sensed him and moved round quickly and slashed the blade through his stomach, more came after that and she started killing at will*
-
One of the boys stepped infront of her "Hey Theyre my mates they are then he turned around "She on our side" And they left
-
"I will not give up intill my mission is complete" Eltharion yelled as he slashed a mans neck. "You wanted to end this war!? Well thats exactly what im doing, by killing both sides Leaders." And with that Eltharion and his elves burst into the royal chamber slaying all they found. "Find Aragorn and kill him!" Eltahrion yelled.
-
*Nienna stopped as the guards stopped, she was unsure of what to do, she didn't know who to fight or who not to. She ran to the tower from where she had come from and sat on the floor with her head in her hands thinking*
-
"NO this can be done another way of you would just stop... I thought you were my friend.... I cant beleive Im related to you" she chased him then held a sword to his neck "Stop... stop them now!"
-
"You would not dare kill me cousin! Put the sword down, and I assure you if there was another way I would have tried it."
-
"Oh I would" she tightened the sword and it started to cut "Stop them!"

"No, I do this for the good of all Middle-Earth" He twisted suddenly and grapped Arenea's sword arm. He pulled himself behind her and grabbed her neck. "I do not want to do this cousin" Eltharion said. "But I will if you give me no choice" he flung her to the wall. "Sorry but it must be done" Guards subdued Arenea and the remaining elves burst into the inner chamber of the combound where Aragorn's men were held up. Eltharion was at the head of the attack sword drawn.
-
*Nienna clutched her knee's and started rocking backwards and forwards, she was puzzled, she didn't know what to do*
-
Arenea tried to get up but she couldnt she lay there in much pain
-
(actually ur not my cousin, i think im ur half-uncle or sumthign lyk that...im arwens mums son but not wiv elrond wiv sum elven king from the east.)
The elves left the room swords stained with blood. Eltharion notice his half-niece crying in the corner. "I couldn't do it" he said. "Go in and seem your father". The prince was used to doing terrible deeds without remorse, but this time he just couldn't go through with it.
-
*Nienna arose from the ground and walked slowly over to the window, it looked like the war was over so she started to slowly walk down ovoiding dead bodies of elves and men as she went. She came to Eltharion and stopped in her tracks, she didn't know what to say to him and she didn't know what to do*
-
OK :)
One of the boys arose as arenea staggered in to see her father "You injured my sister!"
-
"She got in my way, you should be happy. I didn't kill your father after all." Eltharion muttered. He turned to face Nienna. She looked extremely pale.
-
"Shes 12 years old ... shes your half neice... shes related to a disgrace like you
-
Eltharion smiled, then he started to laugh. "Maybe I am. But you have no right to insult your elders like that! I am nearing 3500 years of age, I have lived to see over 40 generations of men die. But you are a half-breed and you dare say I disgrace the name of elf!!?" Eltharion boiled with rage. He was startign to regret sparing Aragorn. He left the room swiftly.
-
All of the boys followed "Being half of the nature does not make it a disgrace a disgrace is walking awaty fom his problems a disgrace is walking away and infront of me this very second!"
-
*Nienna kept her eye on Eltharion and watched him leave the room with the other following, she wasn't sure whether to go or to leave him. She got up and followed the them out keeping at a distance*
-
Eltharion wheeled around. "You act tough when there are all 15 of you, but not one could take me on in combat alone! So hold your tounges!" Eltharion was outraged. "Now leave your uncle be, or do you wish for me to set my army loose on the city again!?" Eltharion screamed. He glanced over at Nienna.
-
*Nienna froze when Eltharion looked over at her but she carried on listening to the converstaion*
-
(right I'm double postin 2 bring this r/p back 2 life)
*Nienna took a deep breath and nervously walked over to the group, she stood next to Eltharion* "Leave it, Enough blood has been spilt today over ridiculous reasons!" *She to them. She remained next to Eltharion, she narrowed her eyes and looked at the boys* "Now would you care to leave us alone for a bit" *She said*
-
The boys remained where they were then Arwen came out behind them looking pale "You and your men are hearby banned from Gondor"
-
(Whose band from Gondor? ??? the elves?)
-
Eltharion and his lot ..... no ill just make it Eltharion and the lot he brought with him not all of them
-
(o ok)
*Nienna looked at Arwen* "Can me and Celestria leave now?" *She questioned*
-
"What? um.... thats the only problem Aragorn has been cured but he is the ruler and he demands that you are prisoners" the 2 tallest boys grabbed her shoulder and lifted her easily into the air carrying her to the dungeons
-
*Nienna tried struggling free and kicking, but nothing worked* "I knew we couldn't trust you!" *She yelled whislt getting dragged away*
-
"We are trustworthy but you are prisoners and we can't stop that!"
-
*Nienna scowled and the next thing she knew, she was back in the same cell with Celestria again. She was now very angry and started throwing loose stones hard against the wall*
-
"Fine if thats what you wish" Eltharion said. He turned to his elves. "Kill them all" he said cooly.
-
*Nienna stood up in her cell and started to walk around it in fustration, she tried kicking the door but it didn't shift, the bars on the window had been re-newed so she couldn't escape from there. She slumped back down on the floor* "I don't think we'll ever get out of here" *She said to Celestria with sorrow in her voice*
-
The tallest remaining boy (as the others went to kill the elves) walked up to Eltharion spat on the ground an said "I do not wish to do this" and he stuck a sword in Eltharions stomach
-
*Nienna jumped as if she felt something and then she heard men and elves fighting, she sprang to her feet and looked through the bars. She saw Eltharion getting stabbed and her face turned a deathly white* "Eltharion!" She said under her breath. She had to do something but what? She shaked the bars as hard as she could and she could feel one of them was loose, she pulled out her dagger and at the bottom and top of the bar she weakened the joint with it, she did this with everyone of the bars but the other weren't as weak so it took longer*
-
The boy pulled the sword out of the stomach and started to fight the elves
-
*Once Nienna had lifted all the bars free she ran over to Eltharion just in time to catch him as he fell. She layed Eltharion gently down on the ground, she knelt by his side, tears were rolling down her cheeks and she tried talking to him* "Elatharion?" *She said softly*
-
Eltharion stumbled but managed to stay upright for long enough...long enough to put a knife in the the neck of the 1 whod stabbed him. "He was a fool to turn his back on me" Eltharion smiled. "Kill them all in my name" Eltharion cried. And with that he fell into Nienna's arms, dying.
-
*Tears streamed down Nienna's face* "Eltharion" *She said again softly. She started to whisper something in elvish trying to save him from death*
-
(Iīm bak... ;D er....where am i?)
-
(Your still in the Shire lol, me and Celestria were taken to Gondor by some rangers and kept prisoner whilst Eltharion came ana attacked with a army of elves)
-
(is there any1 else in the Shire?)
*Galadriel looked around* "Heloooo, is anybody here?" *she ran upstairs of the buliding but saw no one there* "where is everyone?" *she thought to herself still looking around*
-
"nienna," celestria called out, " we may be stuck with our lives, obsticles and circumstances but we make our own destiny. we have made friends, enemies and differences, so do not cry for what you have to do." she looked deeply at nienna and jumped. she turned to eltharion, "we are in it together" and smiled
-
"come on lets make our difference,"
-
"Eltharion's dying!" *She sobbed with more and more tears rolling down her cheeks, she looked up at Celestria, her eyes were blurred and she could hardly see* "Can't you do something Celestria?" *She sobbed quietly*
-
"yes im sure of it" she took a small bag out of her pocket and handed it to her. inside was unicorn horn, you could dust it one a month and the dust collected had magical healing powers
"now keep your chin up." she smiled
-
*Nienna took the bag, shaking a little. She pulled out her dagger and chipped off some dust from the unicorn horn, she placed it in her palm* "Take this, it will make you feel better" *Nienna said softly to Eltharion waiting for him to let her give it to him*
-
ELtharion was close to death. Everything was blurry. He could see Nienna trying to give him some sort of medicine so he opened his mouth slightly. Even this meaningless act used almost all of his remaining energy.
-
*Nienna gently lifted Eltharion's head up and poured the chippings of the unicorn horn in his mouth. She was hoping and praying he would be alright*
-
Eltharion choked slightly as he swallowed whatever it was Nienna had gave him.
-
(I've g2g but I shud b bk on l8r c ya)
*Nienna lifted Eltharion up gently so she had him in her arms, her face was red and hot from all the tears, she looked down at Eltharions face and kept praying he was going to get better*
-
(Double postin again ::) coz looks like no 1 else is gunna bring this r/p back 2 life)
"Eltharion?" *Nienna gently whispered to see if he had recovered* "Eltharion please be ok" *She said under her breath*
-
Eltharion woke up.
(ok im not in the mood for a long and rousing speech right now ::))
-
(Yep, kno the feelin :P)
*Nienna's face lit up and smile came across her face and she gave Eltharion a hug, she was so relieved that he was awake again*
-
Eltharion got up swiftly. He felf his stomach and his wound was completely healed. Unphased by his miraculous recovery a man charged at Eltharion ready to wound him again. Eltharion nimbly jumped aside at the last moment, whipped round and put his sword through the mans neck. "I've still got it!" he shouted. "Sorry Nienna but theres no time to chat" he smiled. He charged back into the battle to help his elves killing 3 men almost instantaneously. He thought with renewed vigour and strength.
-
*She smiled and pulled out her sword, she started killing men because she knew if she didn't she'd just get put back in a cell again and she wanted to help. She ran over to the battle and helped the other elves fight off the last of the men. One of the men came bounding up to her and tried to stick his sword through her stomach, but she avoided it, only just and he stumbled behind her, she whizzed round and drove her sword into his back*
-
"im glad your better" cassandra smiled drawing her own sword and charging into battle along side of nienna
-
The battle raged on for several hours with no clear advantage gained by any side. But the men could reinforce their numbers, the elves could not. "We may have to retreat" said Eltharion to Nienna a little way from the battle lines. "I doubt we can win this, We must leave before we are overun"
-
"i guess so" said cassandra slicing at one efore drawing back, "wont they follow" she came to his side
-
(this rps kinda dying)
Eltharion gave the order. "Fall back to the walls!" he cried. The elves retreated to the walls of the outer city and rained flaming arrows down onto the houses and people below. When Minas-Tirith was starting to be engulfed in flame Elthario ngave hte final order to retreat. The elves climbed back down the walls and onto there awaiting horses and rode off. There numbers had been significantly reduced.
-
(Itīs been dying coz I havenīt been here! :Plol. Iīm kinda on holiday at the mo but I found a cyber cafe ánd Iīll get on as much as I can but tis hard finding the time unbetween sun bathing and all ;D)
*Nienna whistled for her horse and climbed upon it and raced to the walls, she pulled out her bow and arrow and started shooting at men*
-
"nienna" cassandra called "fall back!" she ussured to the others who were retreating and then fired arrows at men coming up behind nienna
-
"Quickly everyone fall back, that includes you Nienna" Eltharion said. "I'm staying" Eltharion saw the desperate look in Nienna's eyes but vut her off before she could speak. "Don't worry about me, I have a plan." The last of the elves left the walls and Eltharion was left standing. Men were already rushing up the steps torward him. "I hope this works" he muttered. Minas-Tirith was still burning but the fires would soon be quenched, but not until Eltharion had had his say. The elf drew a long staff and drew a circle around him. Then he started to cast a spell. His voice rose high and the men approaching him drew back, "What is the mad elf doing?" one asked. The fools were playing right into Eltharion's hands. The sky clouded over and the wind picked up. The wind grew stronger and stronger and soon he could see the men struggling to stay on their feet in the wind. The spell was having the desired effect, the fires were being fed by the wind and were spreading. Within minutes the city was engulfed in a fire storm. On the battlements Elthario nwas about to flee when he was confronted by none other than King Aragorn himself. "You will pay elf" he screamed and charged at Eltharion. They fought long and hard, they were equally matched until Eltharion started to gain an advantage, He slashed and jabbed at the king until Aragorn was dangerously close to the edge. Eltharion did a last lunge to finish the human but he lost balance. The 2 were thrown off the battlements. Aragorn fell to his untimely death below but Eltharion just managed to gain a hand hold. He struggled but he could not release himself from his precarious predicament. He looked up and saw a girl standing above him...It was Aragorns daughter, his half-niece. She looked at him with vengeance in her eyes and thrust a dagger through Eltharion' hand. The elf screamed with pain and fell from the walls hundreds of feet and hit the ground infront of the retreating elves. The would be no saviour for the elf this time. He hit the ground head first and his neck snapped instantly. Eltharion was dead.
-
"oh my god! hes dead!" cassandra pulled nienna back so she wouldnt go after him. she started stirring her horse to safety and they fell back
-
(double posting but this is dead like eltharion)
cassandra road back with the war raging below her, she lew a horn to signal return and fired asmany arrows as she could but there were too many. she rode away into the distance to find help, she travelled very quickly so there was no dowt shed get back soon with reinforcements to save a attle that was already lost
-
*Niennaīs knees felt week, she shook all over, her face turned a ghostly white and her insides were like jelly (he he :P jelly! ::)). She fell to the floor, tears fulled up her dull eyes as she watched Eltharionīs lifeless body. She knew she had to go, she didnīt want to go but she knew she had to save her life, but she couldnīt move, every bone in her body was disfunctional, she tried to shout out to Celestria but she couldnīt master any words just breath*
-
cassandra stopped after finding warrior elves five minutes after she left who were willing to help. she heard nienna and raced back and when she got there a man was just about to fire a arrow at her but cassandra raced infront of her and took the arrow in the back! she gasped for air then turned round knowing nienna was safe. she fired powerful arrows at the men, killing many. she turned to face nienna, "i...... brought....... help" she pointed to elves gasping
-
Eltharion lay dead on the fields of Gondor. Eltharion found himself in a dream-like state. He was in a long passageway with a light at 1 end in the distance. Eltharion started to walk toward the light. "I'm dead" he thought to himself grimly. As he reached the end he heard a voice. "no...." it said. "It is not your time, you must return..." the voice echoed. Eltharion awoke in a peaceful glade. His head was throbbing. "Urgh....Where am I" he said groggily. He looked at himself and was embarrased to find himself naked. He glanced up and saw an old man watching him. "What do you want?" he said half-heartedly. The man looked at him slowly. "I'm here to return you to the path you were destined to lead." the man said. "Who are you?" asked Eltharion. "I am Mithrandir, the wanderer. I am Gandalf the White." the man said.
-
cassandra wiped lood of herself and rose her sword, "this is for eltharion" and she ran into battle but in the amidst she noticed his body wasnt there which made her fight harder
-
*Nienna wanted to say thankyou to Cassandra but was still in pain and shock, she couldnīt move one muscle though she wanted to fight, she wanted to help not sit there. Tears wouldnīt stop pouring out of her eyes, pain she couldnīt stop rushed through her heart*
-
cassandra turned back and ran nienna and lifted her onto a horse
"you'll b safe now"
-
*Nienna looked at her, tears still pouring down her face, she tried to say something but all that came out was breath, she couldnīt master words so she just nodded though it was a great struggle for her*
-
"Why am i here gandalf?" Eltharion asked the man. "Why am i not dead?" Gandalf stared at the elf. "I thought that would have been obvious, It was not yet your time to die. You have been sent back to complete your destiny." Gandalf said. "And what might that be?" Eltharion asked. "I cannot tell you answers to questions that i myself are puzzled over." Gandalf said. "All i know is that you must ahve something left to complete." Eltharion jumped up from the ground. "So what do you suggest i do?" he asked. "I suggest you find some clothes for a start, you cant walk around Middle-Earth naked" gandalf said.
-
*Nienna thought for a moment, she didnīt want to stay like this, she wanted to fight. So with great struggle she reached for her sword and jumped off the horse, she ran to the battle area and fought* "For Eltharion" *She whispered to herself as she drove the sword into one of the men*
-
cassandra followed feircely and killed many of her enemies in respect for eltharion. she kept fighting and soon the battle was smaller
-
*As Nienna fought flashes of Eltharion ran through her head, as the battle went on more and more anger filled up inside her, she killed every man she came across, she could see they were defeating them*
-
Eltharion was now fully clothed. He stared at Gandalf. "So now what?" he asked. "You return to your homeland." the man said. "Impossible! I was exiled you know that" Eltharion said. "Trust me, return. Take shadowfax, I trust you will be able to ride him. Now go at speed return" the Gandalf said. Eltharion jumped on shadowfax and was off at full speed within moments.
-
*Nienna saw the last few men fall, she shouted to the elves to pull back, she knew they had to make a run for it or else more men would come and finish them off. She saw the elves faces, they were all tired and worn out with battle, they all commanded her orders. She gave a whistle and a balck horse with a firey blaze appeared, she climbed upon it and she led the elves to the gates, Cassandra closely followed behind her*
-
"are we really just going to keep fighting til everyone is dead" said cassandra taking lead. "we are all tired and wont last much longer and if we die or live what difference does it make?" she was emotional at seeing her losses and rode through the gates with tears rolling down her face
-
*Nienna looked back behind her and saw all the tired elves, she caught up to Cassandra and rode up side by side with her horse, she put her hand on her shoulder* "I donīt know Cassandra but whether we like it or not, weīre in this now and theres no running back, we have left normal and now we must ride into the unknown" *Nienna was holdng back her tears because she knew she had to be strong for her friends, she needed to lead them now, and she was probeley leading them into death.*
-
"your brave and true of heart, but are you wise? it may be best to see our other options my dearest friend" her eyes shined with passion
-
"What are our other options!?" *Nienna said nearly shouting, sorrow filled up inside her again, her eyes started filling up with tears but she wiped them clear and held them back. She put her head up high and took at deep breath as she looked at the sun setting on the horrizen.*
-
"going for help, trying to help them, change them or even use magic i mean i had to learn it for some reason right?"
-
"I doubt anyone will help us" *Nienna said putting her head down* "And magic wonīt be much use. Look we just have to find shelter for the night, these elves are tired and I think we all need some rest." *She pointed to the nearest forest and said* "We will stay there for the night. I will stay guard so you all can have some sleep" *She turned her horse to the elves and pointed to the forest* "We will rest in the forest tonight, gather your strength and do not trouble your heart with the worry of a attack, I will keep guard" *She then turned her horse round and started at a full gallop to the forest with the rest following*
-
cassandra had her doubts but trusted her 100% so followed
-
Eltharion rode into his homeland. The other elves stared at him. Soon an elven guard stopped him. "Eltharion why have you returned." the elf asked. "I was sent here by Mithrandir" the prince replied. "You were exiled on pain of death, that is your fathers law and even though he is your son he cannot change it" the guard said. "Very well, Please take me to my father." Eltharion said. The guard lead Eltharion through the streets torward the royal palace.
-
cassandra found a small, quiet corner where she could practice her magic. she lit a few candles and mixed herbs together, releasing relaxing smells. after a while she decided to experiment and mixed different herbs and plants and made a potion she knew was powerful, she bottled it up and tidied it away amongst her possessions feeling calmer and a little more protected.
she went to go get something to eat
-
*Nienna sat down and leant against an old oak tree, she looked around at all the tired elves, they were all going to sleep, it suddenley turned quiet, the moon shone down upon the soft blades of grass and the trees rustled with the calm wind. Nienna watched Cassandra work her magic a few feet away* "Shouldn't you be getting some sleep my good friend? Rest and gather your strength, you never know when you might need it" *She said gracefully*
-
"im just putting it away. would you like anything to eat?" cassandra wondered over to where she sat and handed her some bread and whilst looked at her feet explained about the potion she'd experimented with, " it seems powerful and it just came with a feeling" she finished
-
"Thanks Cassandra" *Nienna said trying to smile through her sorrow, she then put her head back down and started eating while looking at the soft earth, the grass moved from side to side with the wind and the stars with little light they have shone down upon them*
-
"what do you think about the potion then? im sorry if it was wrong it was just a really really strong gut feeling" cassandra pleaded
-
"huh what? O yeah, sorry. Yeah it's good" *She said rasing her head, she wasn't totally there, her mind was somewhere else. She looked up to the stars, so much had happened and she didn't know what to feel, happy that they had won for now or sad, her sorrow was getting very strong, stronger than before, she just wished she didn't get into all of this. Tears started welling up in her eyes but just put her head down and quickly wiped them away before anybody saw her*
-
but cassandra saw and day by day she saw her friend suffer by the weight she was carrying, "your not ok. im here for you and i beleive in u 100% and i need you not to surrender"
-
Eltharion stood before his father. The king stood and said "It is good to see you my son" and they embraced. "But why have you returned, you know I cannot renounce your exile...no matter how much i would like to." the king said. Eltharion nodded "I know I killed that man but he was attacking a young elf maid. What ever happened to justice?" Eltharion asked. The king bent over his son and whispered. "I know but he had powerful friend I had no choice. But I will no longer cower my son" the kign said and he stood tall and proud. "I renounce my sons exile!" the king boomed. The chauncellors began to whisper almost fanatically.
-
*Nienna looked up, her face was very pale and tears started welling up in her eyes* "I don't want anyone worrying about me, I can look after myself" *She muttered trying not to get too upset. She wiped her tears and looked up into the sky thinking*
-
"Father. I am glad I have returned but I cannot stay. My friends are msot likely in danger." Eltharion said and then embraced his father. "I will return" he said and ran out of the room. Within minutes he was on the plains galloping torward Gondor.
-
*Nienna knew she was supposed to be watching out for enemies but her eyes felt so heavy and she fell asleep hardly being able to control herself. Her head leant gently against the oak tree, even though it was hard and brittle to Nienna it felt soft, the moon shone down on her and made her hair glisten.*
-
cassandra sat running her hands over an ancient book her father had left her. she never spoke of her relitives and that was for a reason. it worn leather binder was comforting and warm and its yellowing pages held her grandmothers spells that run in her family. she saw nienna fall asleep and covered her with her blanket as she kept watch in the darkest of the night
-
*Nienna stwitched slightley, she was having a bad dream, it started where she had met Eltharion and all that had happened since then. It then carried on and she found herself walking through Minas Tirith at the end of a huge battle, all the elves layed dead on the cold, stone floor and the men beside them, she was saddened by this and a tear rolled down her cheek. She then came to a familiar face also dead, it was her closest friend Cassandra, she fell to the floor in tears holding her body. Nienna suddenley awoke from her dream and shot bolt upright from where she sat, she breathed heavily with shock and sweat rolled down her face*
-
cassandra jumped violently and turned to nienna, holding her arm kindly "are you ok? oh my god! are you? i'll get you some water" she ran to get some water and gave to to her whilst rubbing her arm and then giving her a hug, reassuring her
-
"T-Thanks Cassandra" *Nienna said shaking in shock, she gasped for more breath and looked around her sharply with her dulled eyes, she felt someone or something was comming* "Their comming" *she said* "their comming" *She repeated sounding mad, she looked around turning her head moved everytime, she looked deep into the shadowed forest, and she saw a light but it was in her head as no-one else could see it, she gasped, the light was warm and friendly, not evil* "It's alright Cassandra, it's good, do you see it?" *She said in a daze*
-
cassandra splashed water on her face and shook her gently, "theres no light and nothing is coming so long as im around, go back to sleep, you seriously need to rest, you'll hurt yourself. trust me" cassandra reassured her before tucking the blank around her and stroking her hair off her face. "go to sleep, im here to protect you an i will never leave your side! you've had a bad dream and none of it will come true!"
-
"No, No, I can't go to sleep, someones comming, a good friend, but who I do not know. The light was there for a reason, a sign" *She said pushing the covers off her*
-
"nienna please" her eyes swelled up with tears, she was tired and weary and didnt like her frend acting like this :'(
-
"Wipe your tears Cassandra" *She said kindly as she stood up, a wind came and gushed through her hair, she started to smile* "I think it's Elthrion" *She said "I can feel his spirit, it's close"
-
she wiped them and stood up, forgetting the craziness her friend had just been through and trusted her words presiously because she respected her so
"really"she said grabing her hands and jumping in the air gleefully
(shes daft like me lol)
-
(lol)
"Keep quiet, we don't want to wake the others" *Nienna said keeping her eyes fixed on the spot where the light came from* "I know this light I see is not Eltharion, but it is a sign, Eltharion's either alive which is impossible" *She said with her voices sinking* "Or his spirit has come back to us"
-
A figure hooded and cloaked strode from out of the trees. The two women jumped up and ran toward him but as they approached he lowered his hood. A stranger stared at them. "Greetings Mi'ladys" the stranger said. "I am Meltharius Talir of the elves of the Eastern lands, and I bring dark news. Gondor and Rohan are now engaged in total war. The two powers are on the verge of annihaltion, and if that happens all sorts of despicable creatures will ravage Middle-Earth. I believe you know Eltharion?" he said.
-
*Nienna looked up at the stranger in shock, her face still pale and her eyes still dull* "Yes, I did know Eltharion" *She said saddened and with her head low*
-
"he was brave and died in battle" said cassandra hanging her head too
-
The elf nodded. "I was aware of that, Mi'Lady. But I have been ordered to take you both to Merizar, our capitol in the far east. If you would be so kind as to come with me I can explain more about Eltharion. He was taken from us I know but he is nto dead...We would know if he had died. Whether he is still himself is another question altogether...but I'm getting ahead of myself here, Please follow me." Meltharius Talir said and started to walk eastward. "My horse is nearby"
-
"what about the others asleep in the forest?" asked cassandra to nienna a litle questionative towards the stranger
-
"I have been ordered to take you two to Merizar, noone else. Your friends will be safe, the humans are too busy fighting themselves to notice them. Please follow quickly, I trust you have your own horses"
-
*Nienna looked back towards the elves sleeping and then at the stranger. She didn't want to leave her friends but she knew she had to, something was urging her to go, she took a deep breath and walked over to her horse and mounted* "How far is it?" *She asked the stranger while walking towards him. She then looked over at Cassandra* "Something tells me we have to go" *She said trying to persuade her to come*
-
"Ok" said cassandra "If you say we must go then we must go" she said mounting her horse then following nienna
-
"Some 200 miles but I know the way well and we can be there within 2 days if we are fast"
-
"ok, let's get on our way then" *She said looking back at the elves once more and rode up beside the stranger* "Before we go what is your name?" *She asked, she looked at the elf and thought he looked familiar but she just thought her mind was playing tricks on her*
-
The elf smiled. "Forgive me Mi'lady, I must have forgotten to introduce myself. Meltharius Talir." the elf said.
-
(oh yeah, opps, u said before :-[ very bad memory ::))
"May I ask, why are you taking us to Merizar?" *She questioned, as she headed off on her horse. There was a light breeze in the air and it began getting lighter and soon the sun started to rise on the horrizen*
-
"My king desires to meet with his sons friends, he is greatly disturbed by the loss of his son after all."
-
"Yeah" *she said, sorrow was in her voice and her head was low but she managed to keep back her tears. The journey went on in silence as the 3 of them headed towards the east. Two days had passed and they finally reached Merizar*
(Sorry couldn't b bothered doin the whole journey thing ::))
-
(*Falls off her chair* O- M- G! Where am I? again :'( :-\)
-
(*Falls off her chair* O- M- G! Where am I? again :'( :-\)
*Falls off the roof of the forum* whats happened where am i?
-
cassandra was tired and hungry when they reached there destination. "nienna, how do you think our men are doing? still in the woods?"
-
"I really don't know" *Nienna said sighing* "But they can look after themselfs, I think they'll return to their home land if anything." *She said*
-
"yes i agree" cassandra sighed
-
"We had arrived ladies" Meltharius Talir said to the 2 women. Ahead of them loomed the city of Merizar with its high steepled towers.
-
(*Falls off her chair* O- M- G! Where am I? again :'( :-\)
*Falls off the roof of the forum* whats happened where am i?
(since when this forum has a roof? :-\ so WHERE ARE WE?) ???
-
(your in the Shire, I sent you a IM to explain things ;D)
*Nienna nodded at Cassandra and looked up and gasped with amazement at the big city, it was so beautiful, she was lost for words*
-
cassandra looked up and her mouth dropped open, "wow!"
-
"You have a beautiful home" *Nienna said to Meltharius Talir still amazed by the city*
-
"It is an amazing place, only those that already know where it is can find it" Meltharius smiled and spirred his horse forward again. He stopped just before the gate and dismounted. A guard approached him. "I bring the Ladies Nienna and Cassandra to meet the king" MEltharius said to the guard. The guard nodded and the gates opened into a wide street. All around elves were busy trading, talking an doing all sorts of everyday things. "The biggest elven population in Middle-Earth reside here, as many as 5000 infact." Talir said.
-
"Woah, I can't believe I've never even heard of this place" *she said in shock dismounting her horse, she looked at all the elves filling the street, they hadn't noticed them yet as she walked forward following Meltharius*
-
"i know its like a dream" cassandra said finally closing her mouth
-
"No not a dream" Meltharius said. "More like a nightmare" he thought to himself. The doors of the great hall opened and the 3 entered. Councillors stood at either side and at the end of the hall sat the king.
-
*Nienna followed through nervousley looking around, a sudden rush of panic came over her, she was about meet Eltharion's father and she knew how he must feel about his death, she didn't know what she would say to him or what to do. Her face was still a deathly pale and her eyes were very dull, she took a big gulp as they approached the king*
-
As they approached the king stood up. "Ah you must be Lady Nienna" the king said and he took Nienna's hand and kissed it. "It is a pleasure to finally meet you, And it is good to meet you to Cassandra." the king said. The king looked at Meltharius "You may take your leave now, My son" the king said. Meltharius suluted and left. In the 2 days he had known the women he had never mentioned he was Eltharions brother.
-
"It is a pleasure to meet you my lord" *Nienna said gracefully bowing her head. She then looked back to Meltharius, she knew there was something about him that was familiar but she never knew he was Eltharions brother, she then turned back round to the king*
-
cassandra stood behind nienna looking really shy
-
The king looked around slowly. "Leave us!" eh commanded to the councillors started to grumble and grudginly they left.
-
*Nienna watched as the guards left, she was still feeling a little nervous about the whole situation but was starting to feel more comfortable. She looked over at Cassandra and could tell she was feeling shy and nervous too, she then looked back to face the king*
-
cassandra smiled at nienna and bowed to the king and awaited him to speak
-
The king smiled. "I must apologize for the others, they see plots and deception everywhere. There is noone to suceed me you see if I die...Eltharion is alive surprisingly but cannot return for some time....He has something of vital importance to complete and I'm not sure when he'll return if he does at all. And Meltharius cannot take the throne because his mother was human. They are only half-brothers. But anyway I would like to hear about you adventures but now is not the time, With Rohan and Gondor at war all sorts of foul creatures are moving westward, and we elves here in Merizar cannot stem the tide."
-
"yes my lord, your sons quest is of great importance aswell as the adventures he joined with us" said nessa finding her voice
-
"E-Eltharion is alive?" *Nienna said in shock* "But I saw...I saw him...he was...dead" *She said finding it hard to master words as she was in shock. Amazement came across her face as she tried to think how he was back, she couldn't understand it, she had seen his body. She looked over at Cassandra puzzled and then turned her head towards the king.*
-
cassandra realised what the king had said, she had focused on trying to speak clearly and not being shy and had not realised what had been said, she had focused on happy memories.
"he's alive! nienna! oh my god!"
-
"Yeah I know...But how?" *She said* "How can he be brought back from the dead?" *She asked, then shook her head* "But what can we do about Gondor and Rohan? If they kill eachother off then it will be the end of Middle-Earth as we know it" *She said to the king with sorrow in her voice*
-
"we have fought and had our losses your lord, elves have died along with men as enemies, it isnt right! and eltherion was one of them, he fought corageously but died, how can he be alive?"
-
*Sorrow rushed through Nienna's heart as she remembered the great battle at Minas Tirith. The memory came flooding back of Eltharion laying dead on the stone floor and her being pulled away from him, she remembered the weak feeling in her knees, being unable to hardly breath and as she stood there she felt the same. She had no clue what to do and felt hopeless*
-
"In a sense Eltharion did die. He is different...But he is alive I can assure you. I was told of his death but a little over 2 days ago he returned breaking his exile. He seems...older, wiser. I cannot explain it. But if the creators sent him back to us, then he must have an important task to undertake" the king said.
-
*Nienna nodded, she still couldn't believe Eltharion was back* "We need to do something about Gondor and Rohan my Lord. We have tried fighting battles but more and more men keep coming, I think war is hopeless in this case, and I think we're not doing anything good killing them while their killing eachother. There must be another way" *She said trying to think* "I believe theres more to see than what we've seen already, it's just going to get worse if we don't find a way and stop this maddness soon"
-
"i know the maddness is terrible" cassandra agreed
-
*Nienna nodded at Cassandra and turned back to the king* "It is so stupid, that's why we set out on this journey to try and stop it" *She said*
-
" my lord is there any change you know where eltharion is? i would love to see him again. and if not is there any way you have to track him because i feel he has great importance to stopping this war!" said cassandra strongly
-
*Nienna nodded in agreement but didn't really want to say anything about Eltharion, she still couldn't believe he was alive so she looked down sadly and stayed silent*
-
cassandra put her hand on nienna's shoulder and sadly looked at her, "it'll be ok, he's ok"
-
The king smiled and sat down once more. He stared at the two for a second or two and then he gestured to one of his servants. "Bring forth Meltharius again please" he said to the servant in a friendly manner. The servant left andd was back within moments with Meltharius.
-
"greetings meltharius, it is good to see you again but why my king does this concern him?" asked cassandra, alittle confuzled
-
*Nienna looked at Cassandra trying to smile but her face remained blank and deathly. She looked behind her and saw Meltharius approaching, she turned back to face the king but remained in silence*
-
Meltharius ignored the women. "What do you wish of me father?" he asked the king. The king stood and embraced his son. Meltharius stood firm. "I wish you to take the Ladies Nienna and Cassandra and go in search of your brother" the king said. Meltharius looked dismayed for a moment but quickly shook it off. "If that is your will my king. Come Mi'Ladys, we best be off quickly if we are to catch Eltharion" Meltharius said.
-
*Nienna nodded and followed Meltharius through the great hall and back out into the streets, Nienna stayed quiet, she didn't know what to say because she was so confused herself, she couldn't get to grips of what happened over the past few days and she pondered over it as she walked out into the streets of the city*
-
cassandra followed and gave nienna a quick squeeze on her shoulder for confidence, cassandra was really :-\ confuzled and inside her head was so complex
-
*Nienna smiled* "Thanks" *She said barely in a whisper. The streets were still filled with elves, they still hadn't noticed them and somehow Nienna wished she could live the simple life again, she wished she was home with her family so her sorrow could be comforted, she tried not to let it show amonst her friends, she wanted to be strong for the people around her and she always thought she could be but she hadn't been lately and she somehow felt guilty about it*
-
cassandra sighed, she also felt guilty and confuzled, she just followed down the street in silence
-
Meltharius sat in complete silence upon his horse. He was deep in thought. He would never be king because everyone thought he was mentally disturbed, even his own father. Eltharion was the only 1 who had ever had faith in him. And now he was gone...Meltharius suddenly spirred his horse into a trot, and then a canter until it was galloping. "Come Mi'ladies there is no time to waste!" he shouted as he raced through the city gates.
-
*Nienna nodded and hurried Blaze on into a gallop.* "Where are we going exactly?" *She questioned riding up along side of Meltharius. She looked at him and she could see he was in thought and something was troubling him, perhaps a inner sorrow she thought, she didn't know what was wrong but she knew how he was feeling, she could see it in his face but didn't say anything.*
-
(this rp seems to be only 3 peeps. wot happened to evry1 else???)
-
(Well...Their all back at The Shire, so my plan is once we've met up with Eltharion and that we can ride back to The Shire so everybody can come back in coz we kinda left them there. I'll IM everyone who is one of the characters and tell them when we get there so we can get them back into this r/p)
-
(k sure)
"We go to find my brother of course" Meltharius shouted against the howling of the wind. "I think I know where he is!"
-
*Nienna stayed quiet for a moment* "Where do think think Eltharion is?" *She asked, it was the first time she had mentioned Eltharion for a while but she was starting to come to terms that he was alive*
-
Meltharius and the others rode fast westward. Soon they came across a sight of a great battle. Corpses lay everywhere. The stench of death was on the air and carrion feasted on the dead. Meltharius dismounted and surveyed the scene. The dead seemed mostly to be of Rohan and Gondor. At first he though they had thought each other but when he looked closey he could see irregularaties. "They didn't fight against each other" Meltharius said to the women. "They made a last stand against something else...It looks as if these men disobyed their commanders and stood together against something else" Meltharius was puzzled. "But what? There are no other corpses except those of men." Meltharius bent down to examine a corpse closely. It was covered in burns and all of a sudden Meltharius realised what he was lookign at. "Quickly ride away now!" he cried. "Dragons did this! And there isn't just 1 there are about a dozen!" Meltharius jumped upon his horse. "These beasts have seized their chance. The between the great powers of men may very well have doomed Middle-Earth. Now ride fast north and do not stop!" Meltharius cried and urged his horse north.
-
*Nienna looked at the corpeses in devastation but knew she had to do what Meltharius said, she chanted quietly in elvish and Blaze shot off like a bullet catching up with him with Cassandra following them. Nienna looked straight ahead, she didn't fear the dragons and she didn't fear death but she remained quiet and deep in thought, she feared what might happen to all her friends and loved ones if the dragon's strength grew and war was everywhere. She shook her head to try and clear her thoughts but they leaked back into her mind and her worry grew*
-
cassandra was in a train of thought, things just kept flashing into her mind dragons, 12, they're quite stupid and selfish, corpses, friends, death she was so confused, she rode up to nienna, "im sorry, im not much help and yur being so strong. when i usually get like this im able to use my herbal remadys ut we havent rested or stopped! please forgive me and you too meltharious," she hung her head low in disgrace
-
"You have no need to say your forgiveness my friend, for you have done nothing, it is not your fault all this has happened, and it is not your fault your feeling like this. I know exactly how you feel, but if we can keep our friendships and bonds strong then we'll find a way to pull through and smile at the end. Scars may never leave our souls and the pain may remain the same but when this is all over we will find it within our selves to feel strong and hopefull and we may yet again live in peace" *Nienna said just managing to give a smile for her friend, it had been a long time since she had been able to smile but she knew the only comfort for her friend was to show her that they all must have some hope though she had none* "We cannot change the past, but we can change our present to make the future worth living"
-
"your right i suppose, but i really want to take action and see the difference im making because now i feel i have made none,"
-
"You may feel you have done nothing, but really you have" *Nienna said smiling* "Your time will come" *She said and then quickened her horse so she was next to Meltharius* "How away are we?" *She asked her eyes watering slightly from the wind gushing against her face*
-
cassandra too caught up so they were in a line, she sighed and kept riding
-
Meltharius rode onwards. "I dare not venture into the lands of men, we will find only death and destruction there. We shall ride to the shire." Meltharius shouted against the wind. "I think Eltharion may be there"
-
*Nienna nodded and looked straight ahead, thoughts rushing through her head What was going to happen to them? What was going to Middle-Earth?What was going to happen to the people she loved, her thoughts trailed off as they drew nearer to The Shire. Days past and soon they reached the boarder lines of The Shire. Nienna became slightly nervous as they passed The Green Dragon pub, when she looked at it all the memories flashed back into her head and she remembered. She tried closing her eyes to rid herself of the thoughts but soon they leaked back into her mind and she opened her eyes again to find herself upon familiar surroundings*
-
"where will we meet our past companions? if we meet up with them and they are well," said cassandra in a depressed tone, she looked down the dark empty street and felt like a black cloud hung over her
-
*The streets were empty and lifeless, the shadows of the clouds danced on the cobbled road as they slowly made their way down it. Nienna sighed and looked down, she had never seen The Shire this way before, it seemed like a whole different place in the darkness of this night, evil was spreading fast across the lands of men, she could feel it and everything felt so hopeless what will happen after they meet up with their friends? They will never been no gain with out loss she thought over and over again*
-
Meltharius pulled his horse to a stop and shouted "Eltharion!". He waited a few seconds but there was no reply. "Anyone!" there was still no reply. He looked around...Everything was abaondoned but there didn't seem to be any signs of violence.
-
"It's so quiet" *Nienna said nearly in a whisper* "It's like our bare footsteps will make a loud echo disturbing all" *She said scanning her surrounding's*
-
Meltharius looked round and saw something. A lone firgure stood on a hill gazing down at them. He was robed in grey. Meltharius shouted to the figure "You! Where is everyone!?" The figure stared down at them before disappearing over the other side of the hill. "Quick after him" he said to the others and he raced up the hill.
-
*Nienna kicked Blaze's sides and encouraged him on, she saw the figure disapear, she found it somewhat familiar but she couldn't think of anyone they knew who would run away from them. They chased after it and soon they were very close to whoever it was*
-
The figure wheeled around and faced them. It was clearly a man but his hood concealed his facial features. "Who are you?" Meltharius demanded. "Names are not important" the man said in a voice that seemed both familiar and new. "But what is important is that you find the others." he said. "Follow me" he muttered and turned and started to walk westward. Meltharius was confused but followed anyway.
(can u IM the others who havnt been in it 4 a whiel os they can rejoin?)
-
(Done it already :P messaged Samwise Gamgee and Beautiful Nightmare, I'll IM Debz when she's back and there's some others I still need to message ;D)
*Nienna looked slightly confused but followed Meltharius' lead* "Who do you think he is? He seems quite familiar" *She said riding up beside him*
-
Meltharius leaned oevr towards Nienna. "He is, or was once Eltharion...Although on the rare occasion that the dead are sent back to us they retain very little of their past experiences. He is not the same elf you or I knew. Infact he is mostly likely very different in all but appearance. But none the less be careful with him. Those who are sent back are often many times more powerful then they were before."
-
"That's...That's Elatharion?" *Nienna whispered slightly in shock. She looked at Eltharion, she could see it now, he was different and he wasn't the same person he used to be, she tried to figure it out in her mind but she was so confused with the whole situation.*
-
cassandra couldn't speak, warm tears rolled down her cheeks as she whispered, "eltharion?" hopefully
-
"Cassandra, he's changed, don't you see, he isn't the same person" *Nienna said whispering, to her the man infront of her wasn't Eltharion, just someone who looked like him, she could tell he had changed but she didn't know whether it was for good or bad*
-
The man turned around to face the others. "We are here" he said. He lead them into a cave system hidden deep within the forest and they were soon reunited with their old friends. (this is the que for the others to rejoin)
-
cassandra looked deeply saddened at nienna, she looked around at her old companions and one new 1, eltharion
-
(Where am I? ???)
-
(We're in this cave type thing and we're having a meet so we're just waiting for people that were in here before to post :P)
*Nienna looked round at her old companion's and greeted them with a weak smile, she glance over at Eltharion but couldn't bare to look at him. The cave was dim, there was a small fire in the middle of the room, it flickered in the darkness making shadows dance upon the walls of the cave. Nienna looked down to the floor and stood in silence*
-
The one who was once Eltharion strode torward a raised rock and climbed it so everyone could see him. He then spoke "The one known as Eltharion IS dead." he paused. "We are a new entity entirely, I share his memories and he is a part of me but we are an entirely new creation. I am the wielder of the blade of Ilúvatar" he proclaimed and drew a magnificent blade that had been sheathed. It seemed to feel the room full of awe. "With this blade the world will be cleansed of all evil!"
-
*Nienna looked up at Eltharion, her eyes slightly watering with tears but she tried keeping them back. When he pulled out the sword she gasped with amazement, she looked at it shining in the light of the fire as it flickered calmly in the slight breeze that was coming in from outside*
-
cassandra respected this new eltharion but didn't like him, he wasn't the same, she bowed and whispered, "i'll stand watch," as she strolled outside. she quickly wiped away tear
-
(Can someone pleeeeeeease explain what the hell has happened?Tis so confusing!)
Sam watched Cassandra lave, and he slipped out after her. He sat, resting against the cave wall, watching her silently
-
cassandra turned and spotted sam, "hey, don't you want to go listen to what he has to say?" she said, wiping away a tear quickly so he couldn't see.
-
Sam shrugged "Not really...He's only going to say what I've already heard before" He said, "What about you?"
-
(Basically me and Cassandra got taken away by gondorian rangers to gondor, then Eltharion came with a load of elves and there was this big battle. Eltharion died and me and Cassandra got away with the remaining elves, Eltharion got brought back to life and he returned to his home land, his brother Meltharius took me and Cassandra to his home land and we met with the king then we travelled to The Shire to get everyone back into this rp) (I'm not sure if that makes any sense :-\)
-
cassandra shook her head, "i can't face him, he's changed so." said cassandra walking over to a rock and sitting down, with her legs folded close to her and her arms holding them, she rested her head against them
-
Sam stood up and put a hand on her shoulder, gently squeezing "Don't worry" He said softly, "It will be alright"
-
cassandra lifted her head and gave a weak smile, "i hope so,"
-
Meltharius strode next to his brother. "SO what's it like to live twice?" he asked. "Surprisingly tedious" Eltharion smiled. "It is good to see you" he said and they embraced. "I see this 'rebirth' hasn't dampened your sense of humour" Meltharius joked heartily.
-
*Nienna turned her cloak swiftly following her as she walked outside, she sat on a large boulder which lay a few feet away from Cassandra. She picked up a few small stones in her hand which lay on the floor next to the rock, she threw them silently into the distance trying to keep back the tears*
-
"nienna? what are we to do now?" said cassandra. "i know it isn't fair to ask of you to take the lead so i will only ask of your opinion, remember you are among friends."
-
*Nienna looked at Cassandra with a longing face, her eyes slightly watering with tears but she quickly wiped them away* "I don't know Cassandra, I don't know what's going to happen" *She said weakly with her voice shaking and a tint of sorrow in her tone
-
cassandra jumped off the rock she was sat on and walked towards the forest practacally on the doorstep of the cave, she stopped just as she entered, "i'll be back soon, don't dare follow." and walked into the shadows
-
*Nienna stood up quickly and ran over towards the forest/cave (wherever she went ::)) trying to get Cassandra to come back but she was too late. She knew she must not wander off on her own, she ran into the cave were Meltharius and Eltharion were* "Cassandra has gone!" *She said panicking, she was worried about her, she knew what lay in the depths of caves and she shuddered at the thought of it* "She's gone on her own! We must go after her!" *She said to them almost shouting*
-
(no you mustn't! ;))
cassandra walked through the depths of the woods, she slambered over logs and the debree of the wood floor, she saw a light in the distance and walked towards it unsure of whatever it was. the light came from a beautiful little fairie
-
(well I am he he he :P)
*Nienna looked up at Meltharius and Eltharion her eyes shining and her face pleading, she was getting worried about Cassandra and she felt alone, though she was surrounded by a few people. Cassandra was there when everything was happening, she was there when she saw Eltharion die, and now she felt as though she had no one. As she looked up at Eltharion she felt a lump in her throat and she just wanted to fall on her knees and burst out crying but she knew she had to stay strong and most importantly she knew she must find Cassandra*
-
(wel fra!!!!! 8))
cassandra followed the fairie down a small tunnel and found a magnificent, beautiful, astounding miniature city for the fairie kind. there were glowing lights and a feeling of good magic. it was wonderful! cassandra was shown around, all the fairies were so gracious to her, they had a marvellous feast prepared with new and delicous foods. it was like a dream!
-
Eltharion seemed not to care. "She is not important for the plan...She doesn't even factor into the quest." Eltharion said. Meltharius satred at his brother "What's the matter with you? She might be in danger!" he shouted. "It is not important" Eltharion replied. "Damn you!" Meltharius cried and threw Eltharion backwards and ran out of the cave.
-
"The plan!" *Nienna shouted* "All you care about is the plan?! *She said now furious* "I can't believe what you've become! You were her friend and now the plan is more important!" *She shouted now wanting to break out in tears, she never knew Eltharion could be so heartless now he had come back. She started to run after Meltharius, she could no longer keep back the tears now, as she ran they streamed down her face and soon she caught up to him*
-
cassandra strolled out of the forest, she seemed to glow like a heavenly angel because of the little fairie sat on her shoulder, she saw what was happening!
"i leave for half an hour and hell raises! twilelight, do your stuff," she said turning to the fairie that nodded and flew over the 3 sprinkling a sparkling powder over them. the powder was to help relax them but now it was up to cassandra to do her bit. she took another powder from her pocket and a flute the fairies had given her. the powder, she'd made herself, it was to bring joy and hope to those who inhaled it. she sprinkled some into the flute and played a beautiful, calming song that scattered the dust everywhere so the 3 of them definately breathed it in.
-
(It's only Eltharion in the cave at the mo, me and Meltharius have gone outside after you ::))
-
(well it reached you all ;D)
cassandra smiled at the fairie, "hopefully that worked, thanks."
-
(lets just say we're back in the cave ;) so theres not so much confusion)
*Nienna remained still, her face blank and red from tears which she eventually managed to prevent from falling. Whatever Cassandra did Nienna didn't feel any different, her sorrow ran too deep for anything to prevent her from feeling this way. She glared at Eltharion wanting to say something to him but she remained silent as a gush of wind swept through the cave, sending a shiver down Nienna's back.*
-
cassandra sighed and slumbed back against a rock, "to say we have to change fate and defeat and kill so many we won't do a good job if we have no hope!" she shouted this last bit angrily
-
*Nienna looked over at Cassandra, her eyes dull and cold* "I wish I did have hope Cassandra, but when it feels like the world is against you and all that you love and held close is nearly lost then how can you have hope" *She said then looked at the ground...All was in silence for a while and then Nienna looked up at Eltharion* "So what is this plan you talk of? We must do something and fast!" *She said now trying to sound more positive but she didn't feel it*
-
"hidden behind the curtain, trying to peep past, is something good i'm certain, to break the shadow that was cast. hope could be the light, if only given the chance, it could win the fight, so from behind the curtain don't just glance." said cassandra quietly
-
"Yes, What is this plan brother!?" MEltharius demanded. Eltharion glared at averyone but remained silent.
-
*Nienna remained silent awaiting an answer, she couldn't bare to look at Eltharion anymore so she lowered her head looking at the damp, stone floor of the old cave they were all stood in*
-
"My orders come from Iluvatar himself, the all-father. He gave me this blade and gave me my mission. All shall be purged from this world, Orcs, trolls, all dark creatures...and the race of men must all be purged. All races must be destroyed with the exception of the elves...and the dwarves. That is my quest." Eltharion said.
-
(erm.... What character was I playing here? ???)
*Geaven/Galadriel ::) :-\ saw light in the cave. She walked in and saw her friends*
-
(Your playing Galadriel and Ferilla (I think), I just checked the first few pages)
*Nienna looked up at Eltharion, she couldn't believe what he had turned into, she wanted the old him back not this new version. She knew hearing that he was alive was too good to be true. She saw Galadriel/Geaven/Ferilla (I don't know which one lol!) arrive and she managed to give her a weak smile then she looked around at the others*
-
(This r/p moves waaay too fast...what has happened now?Was only away for one day!)
-
(nothing much really, destiny wandered off and brought back a fairy...don't ask ::) and now we're all back in the cave again and the fairy flew away ???)
-
(Okkkkkkkk....and how is this r/p actually going to move on?We seem to be going in circles!)
-
(Well, I'm still kind of working on that :-[)
-
(Ok...)
Sam sat silently in a dark corner, hugging his knees to his chest. He stared around at the others, but didn't look at Eltharion
-
(lol, yey fairie! ;D)
cassandra looked up at galadriel, "oh my god! hey!" she smiled, standing up
-
*Nienna looked around her eyes darting to every corner of the cave, she couldn't take this anymore...She had to break the silence and she knew they had to move on from where they were because they weren't getting anything done just sitting in the cave. She turned to Eltharion* "We have to do something...Are we to move on or linger here and watch everything fall apart around us?" *She asked now feeling an inner strength arising inside of her*
-
(yey inner power ;D)
cassandra smiled at nienna, she had a deep respect for her
-
"Then what are we waiting for? Let the killing begin" Eltharion laughed and drew his blade. Meltharius confronted his brother "What is this madness that grips you!?" he screamed. "MADNESS!? You have no idea, I listen to the orders of Iluvatar only." Meltharius grabbed his brother and lifted him clean off the ground. "Iluvatar would never order this act! You are being decieved" Meltharius said. Eltharion had ahd enough. "DIE!" he screamed and there was a flash of blindinglight. When everything became visable Meltharius and Eltharion stood starign at each other. Both stumbled backwards away from each other, The blade that Eltharion possesed had gone straight through Meltharius' body and likewise Eltharion had a dagged imbedded in his chest. "Damn...you...Morgoth" Eltharion stuttered and he fell backwards. As soon as his body touched the floor it was engulfed in flame. MEltharius stared for a few moments and then fell of the ledge on which they ahd been standong.
-
*Nienna rushed over to Meltharius (if he's still in the cave?), she knelt down beside him and lifted up his head, she checked for a pulse, there was one but it was very faint...Nienna chanted in an ancient elvish language to try and bring Meltharius back to consciousness, she remembered doing the same thing to the old Eltharion as she thought of this pain struck her heart but she knew she had to save Meltharius. She stopped chanting for a moment and pulled something out from the pocket of her cloak, it was the remains of the unicorn dust Cassandra had given her back when they were at Minas Tirith when Eltharion was dying. Now she was doing the same for his brother and trying to save his life*
-
Sam rushed over to Nienna and Meltharius "Is there anything I can do?" He asked softly
-
"He is weak...Can you get me some water please Sam?" *Nienna asked looking up at him then back down at Meltharius, she knew she had to make him regain consciousness before she gave him the unicorn dust so she continued to chant in elvish* "Come back to the light Meltharius, come back so we can save you" *She chanted over and over again in elvish whilst she had her eyes firmly shut in concentration*
-
Sam nodded and hurried to the nearest stream, with a water bottle. He filled it up and handed it to Nienna "Anything else?"
-
"would this help?" asked cassandra holding a small bottle, it was filled with her homemade potions that she used to came herself in bad situations and she had stumbled across a healing potion
-
"No, he can't be saved unless he regains consciousness and that's what I'm trying to do so just bare with me!" *Nienna said getting a little frustrated and then she continued to chant* "Come back to the light Meltharius, come back to us" *She said over and over again in elvish*
-
cassandra fell to her knees by meltharious, she took his hand and helped nienna chant
-
Meltharius' hand shot up and grabbed the unicorn horn and threw it aside. Then he spoke "No remedies on this eart will save me. This sword is even worse then a morgul blade, Only I can save myself. I must do this alone, leave me be or you could do more harm then good" he said quickly and then he lay down and closed his eyes. He went into a deep state of meditation.
-
(what unicorn horn? ???)
cassandra fell back so surprised by what he said, "how can you say that!"
-
(I had a unicorn horn left over from the battle at Minas Tirith)
"Do what he says Cassandra...He knows what he's doing" *Nienna said sitting back hoping he was right*
-
"ok," cassandra stood up and walked over to galadriel and leant against the wall
-
Sam watched the others silently, feeling useless. He turned away, and leant against a wall, thinking hard
-
*Nienna stood up and took a step back from Meltharius, she was really worried about him and she hated not being able to help in any way. She looked down on his face and she turned so she didn't have to watch, she hated to see her friends in pain*
-
Meltharius was very weak. He kept himself deep in his meditation state, it was the only we eh could keep himself alive. He gaiend conciousness for a brief few seconds. "Nienna, bring as much kingsfoil as you can and keep on applying it to the wound periodically." he muttered quickly and then began to mediate once more.
-
*Nienna nodded and ran outside and looked carefully through the bushes as fast as could, she soon found some kingsfoil and ripped it from it's roots. She ran back inside of the cave and rushed over to Meltharius, she knelt down beside him and placed some of the kingsfoil gently on his wound*
-
(by the way guys check out character bios to see my new improved meltharius bio)
-
(ah tis cool :P)
-
cassandra watched from her distance.
-
*Nienna looked upon Meltharius' face with worry* "Can I do anything else to help?" *She asked hoping he was going to be ok*
-
Meltharius put his hand on Nienna's shoulder. "You can do us all a favour and not worry" he smiled.
-
*Nienna smiled weakly back but she couldn't bring herself not to worry, she cared too much about her friends...She stayed knelt by Meltharius watching him trying not to express her worry*
-
cassandra took a deep breath, she was releived but felt like she had a background role in this battle. she stayed against the wall and stayed quiet
-
Meltharius lay silent and still for many hours. Eventually he stirred and sat up. "I am healed" he said and he pulled himself to his feat. "We must go soon, those dragons are ravaging middle-earth as we speak...We must act"
-
cassandra walked ahead out of the cave, she whistled and her horse ran towards her. she checked her belongings before getting up, she awaited her orders for directions. she was cold, hungry and tired but didn't complain, she kept quiet.
-
*Nienna smiled as she saw that Meltharius was healed* "It's good to see you're back to normal" *She said then a look of worry came over her face* "What are we going to do about the dragons? We can't exactly fight them on our own...We must find aid" *She said then looked at the spot where Eltharion had burned in flames* "What happened to Eltharion?" *She asked sadly*
-
(he die :(::))
cassandra thought about the dragon problem, she called to nienna, "what is we use there greed against them and then drown the fire that burns in there bellys?"
-
*Nienna nodded in agreement with Cassandra but remained to stare at the spot Eltharion had disapeared...Even though it was the other Eltharion. She couldn't describe in words how much she missed the old him but she tried to not let it get to her, she knew there were other things that were more important and sacrifices must be made...She tried to fix her mind on the dragon problem but that filled her with worry for her friends saftey*
"nienna, we should take our leave and not dwell in the past." said cassandra seeing her friends pain
*Nienna looked up at Cassandra with sadness and pain covering up the brightness that once shone in her eyes* "How can I not dwell in the past when my future is hidden from me...My past is something I'll never forget, and the pain will stil remain not matter what I do to try and help it" *She said sadly*
-
"well still, what do you suppose we do?" asked cassandra angrily. she turned to look outside and could already make out the dragons.
-
"I don't know..." *Nienna said then something came to her mind and she looked up with hope once again in her eyes* "Men are going to have to join together to fight against dragon's right?" *She said pacing around* "This may cost us all our lives but if we can get Rohan to join with Gondor to fight them maybe, just maybe we can get them to make peace...It's a long shot and well we're probably not going to win but we can't just stay here all our lives"
-
"it's about time we took action," smiled cassandra
-
*Nienna smiled weakly* "But how can we get past the dragons into the kingdom of men? There must be a way" *She said trying to think of ways they could slip past the dragons unnoticed though that would be a very difficult task*
-
(going on holiday 4 2weeks if someone will take over my char)
-
(Will do :))
-
(Can i join in and be Legolas?)
-
(Sure :))
-
Legolas rides in from Mirkwood and jumps off his horse from behind Nienna
"The elves from mirkwood will be here in about 2 days but they sent me to give word and be of assistance
-
*Nienna smiled weakly* "It's good to see you Legolas...But I'm afraid we're going to need more help than elves. Dragon's have started to roam the lands destroying as they go" *She said sadly*
-
Legolas looks up at the dragon drained sky then back at Nienna
"I am sorry i wish i could do more to help, do you know of anyone that could deal with dragons such as these
-
*Nienna paused* "We do have a plan...But it's likely we'll all die" *She said looking to the floor*
-
Legolas lifts niennas head up
"What is your plan?"
-
"Well, seen as war was no result of getting Gondor and Rohan to make peace...Then I thought if we could get them to stand together and fight off the dragons then they may realize what they are doing is madness" *Nienna said, she remembered the war at Gondor, the endless battle of elves and men, she remembered seeing Eltharion's lifeless body in the battle feilds and it nearly brought tears to her eyes but she managed to hold them back*
-
"If thats our only hope then........so be it"
-
*Nieanna nodded and turned to the others* "We best be on our way, but we must move as as quick and swiftly as we can...We need to make sure we don't get seen by these Dragon's or our hope is lost"
-
"Legolas!" a voice shouted from over the ridge. Meltharius came running up and stared at the scene. "Is it truely you cousin? Where have you been during these dark times?"
-
*Nienna looked at them* "I take it you know eachother then" *She said*
-
Meltharius smiled "Know each other? If any archer in Middle-Earth can give legolas a run for his money it is I" said Meltharius mockingly. "Now on to more pressing matters...The dragons are deadly opponents, they are strong, fast, agile and incredibly intelligent. They are only made infallible by their greed. They will not kill everyone because in doing so they would doom themselves. They will pillage and plunder and then retreat to the mountains and then return every month or so. We must contact the dwarfs and see if they have any dragon slayers still left." Meltharius said thoughtfully.
-
*Nienna nodded* "We better get on our way, things are unsettled amongst these lands and I don't want to leave it that way for any longer" *She said looking at the others in the cave*
-
Legolas nods at Meltharius
"Give me a run for my money" He mutters to Meltharius
He laughs and pats him on the back
-
Meltharius stepped outside of the cave. It was midnight and was raining heavily. He was soon drenched. He flicked back his head so his hair got out of his eyes. The moon was huge that night lighting the whole of the shire. At that moment a shooting star darted across the sky. "Have you ever seen anything so beautiful?" he said in a whisper to Nienna who had just come out of the cave.
-
Legolas fires an arrow into the cave, it goes though Meltharius sleeve and he gets pulled back into the wall of the cave the arrow going into it aswell pinning him to it
"Give me a run for my money will you?"
He laughs slightly while watching Meltharius
-
*Nienna didn't say a word as she watched the night sky, the stars lit up her eyes showing off their beautiful colour whilst the shooting star made it's way across the deep blue sky...She suddenley glanced over at Legolas who shot the arrow and she gave a weak smile then she turned to gaze once again into the night*
-
Meltharius ignored Legolas and turned to face Nienna. "I am not my brother and never will be." he said. "The fact of the matter is he WAS a great elf but he died at the battle at Minas-Tirith. The Eltharion that came back had been corrupted by some dark power but it was not my brother."
-
*Nienna looked to the ground and for a while didn't say anything, she then lifted her head and looked at Meltharius* "I knew I shouldn't of left him to fight alone" *She said weakly, with sorrow in her voice* "I should of gone back and helped him"
-
Legolas was cleaning up his bow when he heard Nienna talking to Meltharius. He listens and his face looks confuese dbut upset at the same time
-
"if you had stayed with him, You would have died to. He wouldn't have wanted that and neither do I. He sacrificed himself for you, and in the same posision I would have doen the same. Do not blame yourself" Meltharius said putting his hand on Nienna's cheek and wiping away a tear that trickled down it.
-
"I can't help but blame myself though, if anything I just wish I was there in the last moments of his life. For the sort time I knew him, he had always been brave and he always put himself in danger to save others...He didn't deserve to die" *She said with another tear making it's way down her cheek*
-
Legolas walks over to them both
"Are you both ok?" he asks in a concerned way
-
Meltharius nodded trying to fight back his own tears. "You were fighting, I wasn't anywhere nearby. I was 100s of miles away feasting. We share the same grief"
-
Legolas pulls away and leaves them alone to talk he sits at the egde of the cave watching the sky
-
*Nienna watched Legolas leave and then turned back to Meltharius* "Nothing is your fault, we shouldn't have gone to war, it just made every situation worse" *She said sadly*
-
"As I understand it was Eltharion who waged war. You were a prisoner and he sought to free you. He knew the risks, I just wish I could have fought beside him and yourself." Meltharius said. "But the past is the past, and my brother is dead. We must look to the future, The dragons are the main threat and we must deal with them soon"
-
*Nienna wiped away her tears away and nodded* "Your right, we can't leave these Dragons any longer" *She said trying to concentrate her mind on what was to happen to Middle-Earth*
-
Meltharius put a hand on Nienna's shoulder. "Be strong" he muttered and he strode off to the ledge where he looked at the moon. He turned around "We leave first thing in the morning, agreed?"
-
*Nienna nodded and then went to sit down just near the entrace of the cave, leaning her back against the hard stone. She looked up to the sky then focused her eyes on The Shire, she looked at the the quiet houses and feilds wishing all this would be over so she could once again live in peace*
-
Legolas lyes againest a wall in the cave and slowly drifts to sleep
-
*Nienna continued to gaze into the silent night, she knew she wouldn't be able to get to sleep, every night she was haunted in her dreams and had to face many sleepless nights*
-
Meltharius shook himself awake. Three hours had past and Nienna was still in the same spot. He walked next to her "You need to sleep, otherwise you will be in no fit state to travel tommorow. Don't do this to yourself" he said.
-
*Nienna looked to the floor* "I can't help it" *She said sadly* "Things are just not right anymore"
-
"They never were" Meltharius muttered. "My whole life I have been striving for some meaning. And it is only now in these dark times that I have found it."
-
*Nienna looked up to Meltharius* "My life has always been so simple, it's always been laid out infront of my feet...Now this had happened, I don't know what to do anymore" *She then looked out to The Shire* "All I know, is everyone in this world serves a purpose in life, each purpose is always meaningfull, no matter how tough the road might be"
-
Legolas wakes up by Meltharius and Nienna talking, he turns over over and falls back to sleep
-
Meltharius stared out across the shire. "We shall defeat these dragons and then I will have to face a much more difficult challenge....Kingship" he muttered.
-
*Nienna looked up at him in amazment* "Your going to be a King?" *She asked him then she paused for a moment and looked to the floor* "You have to be King because Eltharion is dead don't you?" *She said quietly*
-
Meltharius nodded. "You see unlike the other elves we are not immortal, we live for many ages of men, for thousands of years but we still eventually die. My father is nearign the end of his time"
-
"I'm sorry to hear that" *Nienna said to him, she remembered the time she met his father, he was very nice to her and Cassandra/Celestria(can't remember which one ::)) but it was only for a brief time she saw him*
-
"I am not ready. I wasn't trained for it, It was Eltharion who was to be king. I need to know...I need to know...That I can have you to support me when this is all over" Meltharius said.
-
*Nienna looked up to him and smiled weakly* "Of corse you can, though I'm not that much use these days" *She said laughing a little, then she paused* "I think you'll make a very good king Meltharius, you've have a lot to give and this is maybe the way you can do it"
-
"Hmmmm, King Meltharius...It does have a certain ring to it" Meltharius smiled. "I hope they don't make me marry the one who was to be Eltharion's queen. I don't get on with her to say the least"
-
*Nienna smiled* "You don't have to be forced into anything you don't want to do...You are strong and brave like Eltharion, you won't fail in being a great King"
-
Meltharius sighed. "I don't have any true friends...I have spent virtually my whole life alone. When this is all over, you will come and stay in the palace at Merizar? I would be honoured to have your presence. But now you must sleep, It will be a busy day tommorow"
-
*Nienna put a hand on Meltharius' shoulder* "You have a true friend sitting right by you" *She smiled* "And it will be a honour for me to stay at your palace, Merizar is a beautiful place" *She paused* "But, yes, your right, I probably do need to get some sleep"
-
"So do I" Meltharius yawned. He stepped inside the cave and leant against the wall. He soon fell fast asleep.
-
Legolas wakes up and walks outside, on his way out he looks down at Nienna and smiles then he sits by the lake outside and watches his face. Then he lyes on the ground looking up at the deep blue sky
-
*Nienna watched Legolas for a while then she laid down on the soft green grass and drifted off to sleep*
-
Legolas watches the sky drift by and before he knows it its morning. He stands up, brushes hiself off abit then walks into the cave
-
*Nienna stirred a bit then she opened her eyes to find the sun blazing down upon her, she sat up from where she was and then looked over The Shire with a cool breeze pushing her hair back slightly*
-
Melthairu had been up for a couple of hours scouting the area. He stood on a rock outcrop surveying the area. He stroked a hand through his now shot hair, he had cut it earleir that morning because it was becoming to impracticle (sp?). His grey eyes stared around the landscape when he noticed something strange. The wind had suddenly changed direction and he saw a group of people walking slowly westward. There were about 80 of them, as they got closer he could see they were elves. Meltharius flagged them. "Hail fellow elves. Why do you travel westward?" he shouted. The elves stopped and turned to face Meltharius. One of them spoke "We are all that are left of our people in these lands." he said solomnly. "The dragons attacked Mirkwood, destroying the capitol Dol'Guldur. Lorien and and Rivendel have also fallen, but as far as we know none survived those attacks. The last of the elves now leave for the undying lands." Meltharius stared into space for a few moments. He suddenly spoke "What of Merizar? What of the eastern elves?" he said quickly. The elves stared amongst themselves and disipated revealing a dozen of them who still remained. One of them spoke but Meltharius could see he was having difficulty finding the right words "Merizar...Is...Was...It no longer exists...They attacked...The dragons...Everyone was slaughtered...Only...us 12 survived...the king is dead. We have no home, no future...no hope" she said very slowly. Meltharius stared in horror.
-
*Nienna heard voices faintly in the air, she got up and started to walk towards them, she saw Meltharius and as she drew closer she saw the elves. She stood next to Meltharius and looked at his face* "Meltharius? What's happened?" *She asked softly*
-
"There all dead...These elves here...We are the only surviving elves in Middle-earth"
-
*Nienna looked down for a moment in sadness, but then lifted her head again* "They can't be all...Dead" *She said barely in a whisper, she was close to tears. All her family were in Mirkwood* "No, they can't" *She kept saying to herself trying to give herself hope though there was non*
-
"I am afraid it is true, Mi'Lady. There were no survivors from Rivendel or Lorien. Only a few from Merizar and Mirkwood. If your family are not here...then they are dead." an elf said.
-
*Nienna held her head low and a tear trickled down her cheek* "It can't be true" *She said slowly*
-
Meltharius felt as though a hand had snuffed out all the life in him. He felt faint but he managed to ull himself together. "You intend to leave?" he asked the elf in charge. "Yes, We are travelling to the undying lands" the elf said. Meltharius stayed silent. "Are you coming to, King Meltharius?" One of the survivors from Merizar asked. "And what of you King Legolas?" asked a Mirkwood survivor.
-
*Nienna wheeled round with her head down, tears flooded from her eyes, she felt like she had lost everything, Eltharion now her family. She felt as though all was lost and there was no point in living anymore*
-
Legolas says a pray for his friends,family and all of the others that had died
He fights to hold back the tears and he coughs, then slowly walks over towards Nienna
" I'm sorry" He says in a quiet, upset voice. He doesnt no what else to say as he looks at the ground
-
*Nienna weakly looked up at Legolas* "There's nothing you can do, what's happened has happened and we can't change the past" *She said quietly trying to hold back her tears but they continued to flow down her face*
-
Legolas walks away and stands by Meltharius
"what do we do now? about the dragons?"
Legolas trying not to make eye contract with him as he can feel his eyes starting to fill slightly with tears
-
Meltharius stays silent. "Theres nothign left for us here...We leave"
-
*Nienna stopped and wheeled round* "We can't leave! We just can't" *She said her voice trailing off, this land was her home, she had grew up in Middle-Earth, some part of her wanted to go and the other part wanted her to stay*
-
Legolas looks at Meltharius with dissapointment
"Never in my life have i seen you giveup on anything!"
He turns around and sits alone, all his emotions catch up with him. Sitting there with angry,dissapointment and sadness and thinks
-
*Nienna returns to her spot by the cave entrance, she sits down hugging her knees close to her chest, she puts her head on her knees and hides her face. Her soft hair dangles limply on her sides as thoughts ran through her head, memory flashes of her childhood came flooding into her mind as she cried for her dead family.*
-
"It is hopeless. Look around you, bearly 80 of us. How can we stay? There is nothing left here for us...Only death. Middle-Earth is doomed, better to leave now then surely die. Can't you understand that?"
-
*Nienna looked up slightly at Meltharius, she didn't know what to say, things had just got worse. She always thought she'd be ready for times like these, but now she finds herself weaker then ever. She had never imagined life without the people she loved around her*
-
Meltharius brooded silently. "The final choice is yours Legolas. I speak only for a dozen or so people when I say we should go westward. You have over 50 so you have more say. Do we go to the Undying Lands, or stay here and fight this war?" Meltharius asked.
-
(Right, was on the phone to destiny today and she reminded me and playing Cassandra for her cos I kinda forgot I was ::) ...oops :-[ )
*Cassandra emerged from the cave, she saw Nienna by the entrance crying, she saw the others and could tell something had happened. She crouched down by Nienna* "What's happened?" *She asked her softly*
"Their gone...Their all gone" *Nienna muttered through her tears*
-
Legolas turns around, doing something he has never done before he looks coldly at Meltharius
"Yes you say i have many years left in me! however i would rather spend maybe 1 years 2 years i do not no but fighting for my world, if i die i die with honour I am not prepeared to give up on Middle earth now"
-
"Very well" Meltharius said. Meltharius nodded at his elves "I will stay. Leave, Go and save yourselves" he said. The elves stared back at him "Where you go, we'll follow you." they said stubornly.
-
Legolas looks at Meltharius and Thinks he will leave and legolas wil have to fight alone, He hopes Meltharius styas but he doubts he will. He stares at him still with the cold look on his face hiding his emotions
-
*Nienna got up and wiped her eyes, she felt quite pathetic for crying but she felt she was alone, lost in this earth. She walked over to where Meltharius and Legolas stood and looked at them with sorrow filling up her eyes*
-
Legolas does not look towards Nienna instead he continuses to look at Meltharius with the same look waiting for his answer to the other elves. For as long as Legolas can remember he has not gone againest one of his dearest friends words, however he feels strongly about Middle earth and hopes Meltharius will relise what he would be leaving behind
-
(yes i no but your elves said where ever you go we go and you might not wont them to follow you so you might change your mind)
-
(Right im going offline now so i wont see you all for aweek :( but............i might just pop on for afew mins and say hi and see how your getting on! ill see you next weekend sometime and earedia? could you tell Lothani i says Bye and thanks for taking over my role while im gone? have a great week and hope you injoy yourselves byexxx)
-
*Nienna looked towards Meltharius, she could see he was in pain, she wanted to go comfort him but knew she couldn't, she was in no fit state herself. She walked over to him and looked up into his eyes* "I'm sorry Meltharius, I know your loss and it's much greater than mine. I just wish I could do something" *She said to him softly and then looked down*
-
Meltharius stares into the distance for a while. Suddenly a chill goes down his spine. "Something is wrong....Terribly, terribly wrong." he mutters.
-
"Everything's wrong" *Nienna said under her breath, she then looked up* "What do we have against Dragons and Men?" *She asked him* "What power do we have against them?" *She said sadly...Then suddenley she stopped, she felt something too, a shiver ran down her spine making her cold to the bone* "Your right" *She said* "Something is at work that we have yet to find out about"
-
Meltharius went pale. He shuddered "A shadow is looming over the eastern lands. Something is moving west, something terrible." he muttered. Meltharius shook himself. "What can we do?"
-
*Nienna pulled her cloak closer as she grew colder* "I don't know, whatever this is, it isn't good...We must leave The Shire. Hobbit's don't deserve all this corruption and we'll just lead it here" *She said looking down on The Shire*
-
Meltharius smiled "You are right as usual" he said. "Come. We leave in an hour to go southward. Pack only what you need to survive. We go to reep a vengeance on those that destroyed our homes!" Meltharius shouted and the other elves cheered and started rummaging through thier belongings for weapons, food and anything that would be useful in the fight against the dragons and what ever else was murking in the world.
-
Nienna nodded, she wheeled round and headed off in the opposite direction towards the cave. Inside there stood Blaze waiting for her with all her things. She sorted out what was most important and put that into a small bag she left the rest behind. Only carrying a little Lambas bread, though she didn't need it much as she found herself eating very little and it was now starting to show.
Nienna armed herself with all her weapons, her sword, bow and arrows, 2 disc shape blades and her flute which she kept in her inside pocket.
She went outside once she finished packing and sat on a small rock, she reached inside her pocket and pulled out a small necklace. Her mother had given it to her before she set out on her journey's, the only thing she had left to remind her of her family.*
*Cassandra over heard the conversation between Meltharius and Nienna, she walked over to Meltharius and stood by him* "We still have hope no matter what" *She said to him, she knew others believed there was nothing left but Cassandra never lost hope. She was in great pain for the loss of her family, though she didn't show it. She kept having flashes of her mother and father being happy in their home, but she couldn't help but think the pain they went through when their home was attacked*
-
Meltharius looked at Cassandra. "I don't know what to do. My people, they are now on the verge of extinction. I have never liked violence, yet now I must wage a war. What shall I do? he asked.
-
"There is nothing you can do right now but fight for what you have...Things are unsettled in this world and we are the only ones who are willing to give our lives to make things right again...And we'll most likely die but hope still remains in those who believe" *Cassandra said*
*Nienna could hear what Cassandra was saying, she knew she was right about everything...But how could she have hope when everybody that she loved just dies. She felt empty and lost, first Eltharion had gone now her family. She feared who would be next Meltharius? Cassandra?...She quickly put the necklace away, she knew if she looked at it any longer she would start to cry again.*
-
Meltharius stared at the floor for a while. He knelt down and took a handful of earth. He slowly let the earth slip through his fingers. "Time. It constantly crumbles away, and before you know it, its already gone past in the blink of any eye. Slowly time drifts past, never speeding up, never slowing down yet it always governs our lives. We elves live longer then men. Their lives seem like an instant to us. It makes me wonder, how much time do we have left? Maybe our time is up." Meltharius said thoughtfully.
-
*Cassandra sighed* "We'll know when it's nearing the end...But for now, we must do what we set out to do" *She said and with that she wheeld round and headed back towards the cave to get her things ready*
*Nienna stood up and leaned against the cave wall, she looked over The Shire breathing in the fresh air that surrounded her. Even though she was in the the fresh air she felt like her wind pipe was closing up, leaving with her with no breath. She felt as though all was lost, all hope faded from her soul.*
-
(i cant help but feel that sam and the others r getting left out agen)
-
(I know, but they haven't posted :-\)
-
(Thanks for remembering us Blaen...I tried to stay in, but I felt rather pushed out :( )
-
(Awwwwww sorry :(...Will try not to do that again)
-
(So can we rejoin then?And if so, whats happened?)
-
(Nearly all the elves have been wiped out and we are going to leave The Shire as we don't want to bring evil to the Hobbits. So we are off to seek revenge 8))
-
(Alrighty then...any of you nice people out there gonna bring us Hobbits back in?)
-
(Will do ;D)
*Nienna sighed and then wandered back into the cave, she saw Sam was sat down on a small rock and she walked over to him* "We are getting ready to leave, we don't want to inflict evil upon your home...You can choose to come with us though this may take all our lives, so I will understand if you want to stay" *She said sitting next to him*
-
Sam looked up at Nienna, and smiled weakly. Then he looked out over the Shire, studying it "I think....I think I will go with you" He said softly
-
"Are you sure Sam?" *Nienna asked* "I doubt there is any hope of surviving and you have a whole life back here" *She said looking down*
-
Sam nodded "Yes, I have made my mind up. I will go" He said and looked up at Nienna
-
*Nienna smiled briefly and then stood up* "You better get ready then, pack only what is needed...We travel light" *She said*
-
Sam stood up, and stood by the cave mouth for a few moments, looking out over the Shire. Then he turned to get ready
-
Meltharius put his hand on Sam's shoulder. "You may have heard this before, but you truely are brave, stout hobbit" he said trying to act cheerful.
-
*Nienna smiled weakly at Meltharius and then looked down at Sam* "He's right" *She said trying to lighten up a little. She paused then looked up at the sky* "Do you think we should leave soon?" *She asked them*
(destiny will be home from her hols tonight and hopefully will be online tomorrow ;D)
-
"i do," said cassandra coming up from behind her, she'd packed her stuff and was really willing to leave
( ;D i iz bac)
-
Sam blushed. No matter how many times people told him that, he couldn't believe it. He just an ordinary Hobbit. Sam looked up "I am packed too" He said, smiling
-
"Good" Meltharius said. "We'd better get going then." he muttered. He picked up the bundle of weapons he had left on the floor and scooped up his bag of provisions. "This is all I will need"
-
*Nienna nodded to Meltharius and mounted Blaze, she kicked him lightly into a trot and they went out into the air. Nienna looked up to the sky, shadow was covering the land rapidly, she hoped it could be stopped before it reached The Shire*
-
"very well," said cassandra bowing her head she then said quietly, "it is a miracle we have all come this far and are alive to speak of it, the sacrifices will be avenged and the good will walk free. thou brave hold their head's high in the walk alone."
-
Meltharius mounted his own horse and rode outside. "Something is lurking out there. Something able to make Rohan and Gondor wage war, something able to make the dragons move west. Sauron could never control those beasts....So, what could it be?" he asked.
-
Sam patted his pony, Bill, and then mounted it. He took one last look at the Shire and then turned. "It will be stopped" He said quietly, half to himself, half to everybody else
-
Cassandra looked around, she had grew tense. as she got up onto her horse there was utter silence, no birds sang and no leaves whispered, it felt dark and treacherous. she rode further ahead, her eyes keen for any movement
-
Meltharius rode in the middle of the party. He conversed with the other elves that had arrived and soon he learnt as much as he was going to Learn about the threat. He rode up to Nienna. "My fears have been confirmed. There is a new evil growing in the east. Something that may be more powerful then any of us could ever have comprehended." he said.
-
"I knew this would happen, I don't know how, I don't know why...But somehow I just knew" *She muttered sadly* "Maybe this is the end...Maybe this is our time" *She said as she looked towards the ground slightly as they rode*
-
"Something is happening to the Hobbits" Sam whispered "I can feel it...The evil has reached them" He bent his head, his face growing paler
-
*Nienna looked over at Sam* "Let's just hope that we can stop this before things get worse" *She said sadly*
-
Sam looked up, his face expressionless "We must hurry then" He said quietly "Else it will be too late"
-
"it may be a trap," said cassandra turning to sam, "it's too quiet and something troubles me other than whats happening in the east, we must be cautious." she said solumnly
-
*Nienna nodded to Cassandra* "It's not only the east that bothers me either...But we must try, that's all we can do. For now we travel to the east but if it is a trap then let it happen. I have lost many people I love and only few remain, if this is my time to die then I'd rather die in battle trying to save what we have left" *She said* "Things are changing, shifting in this world, and we are the only ones who are to make things right again"
-
"very well but it is not that i am caught up by, we will be followed and," she paused and whispered, "right now we are not alone and are being watched."
-
*Nienna's eyes darted around her surroundings looking out for anyone or anything. She suddenley heard a rustle coming from the bushes, she quickly pulled out her sword and silently jumped from her horse and walked over cautiously*
-
cassandra joined her by her side, "together as always are we not," she said with a smile looking directly at the bushes, hand on the hilt of her sword, "we'll always be friends"
-
Legolas rides along side Meltharius and feels the coldness growing inside him
"You could have gone your own way? what made you come on my choise?"
Legolas still looking ahead and is unsure about how Meltharius is with Him
-
Suddenly Meltharius dismounted. Many of the elves arround him pulled to a stop. "Something smells wrong. Can anyone else smell that...Burning? Get Down!" He shouted as a huge fireball smashed into the group roasting several of the unlucky ones instantaneously. In the sky hovering just above them was a huge Black Dragon. "You had a chance to flee elves. Your death's are your own doing." He boomed.
(can any1 remember wot the king of the dragons was called...i think there was a king dragon anyway erm....if not can sum1 suggest a gd name? ;D)
-
(I have no idea...But I'll try and think up a name, though am not very imaginative ::))
*Nienna looked up fearfully at the Dragon then back to the ground. Thoughts raced through her mind of what she could do, she glanced at the others breifly then diverted her gaze to the Dragon, looking it straight in the eye*
-
"Glaurung!" Meltharius exclaimed. "Yes. I was not slain by that fool Túrin!" the dragon boomed. "Enough talking your doom comes now" Glaurung cried and rained fire upon the elves killing yet more.
-
*Nienna managed to dive to one side narrowly missing the fire* "Meltharius! I don't suppose you have any ideas on what to do here?" *She asked him as quietly as she possibly could. She pulled herself up off the ground, she thought of her powers, which she didn't use often, but she didn't think they would be strong enough against a Dragon*
-
Sam dived out of the fire's line "Nienna, you have powers do you not?" He called
-
"Sam. Nienna has powers but none of us, I repeat none of us can even come close to defeating Glaurung. We only have one hope, We must hold out for as long as we can. Trust me!" Meltharius shouted over the sounds of battle.
-
"How?" Sam called back, ducking from the fire again. He crawled over to Meltharius "It looks impossible!"
-
"By fighting fire with fire Sam!" Meltharius shouted. "A friend of mine is coming to help, I just hope he arrives in time, I sent for him yesterday, He should be here soon."
-
"I don't use my powers often, they may not be strong enough to make any harm to Glaurung" *Nienna said over to Meltharius* "And it looks like your friend isn't going to appear any time soon"
-
"He'll come, trust me!" Shouted Meltharius diving out of the way of another of the huge fireballs.
-
Legolas had also crawed and narrowly missed the dragons fire
"Who have you sent for" He says while missing yet more attacks from the dragons.
-
"I'll give you a clue" Shouted Mewltharius firing a few arrows futiley at the dragons. "He's 50 foot long, green, breathes fire and is called Skaelris"
-
*Nienna dived out of the way of a fireball but scrambled to her feet. She thought for a few seconds trying to think of what she could do, then she held out her hand and muttered a few words in elvish and a white beam came shooting out from her palm. It blinded the Dragon briefly then blue smoke started to flow out of her finger tips on her other hand, it started to circle the dragon. The smoke bound the dragon making it unable to move but Nienna knew it wouldn't hold for long as the Dragon was too strong*
-
cassandra moved cautiously behind the dragon, she edged up behind it, it's hard skin was tough and when she touched it the dragon didn't notice so she began to climb up it's back!
-
Suddenly there was a deafening roar. Glaurung shot into the sky. "Do not try to use your pathetic magic against me!" he cried. Meltharius pulled out his bow and shot at the dragon. The arrow glanced off just below the eyes. Glaurung roared and swooped down. Meltharius had no time to run, He would surely be killed. Glaurung was inches from the elf when a fireball hit him in the face knockign him back. Glaurung roared in anger and looked arround. There hovering above the scorched earth was a green dragon. "So youv'e finally arrived Skaelris!" Meltharius cried.
-
*Nienna looked up at Skaelris, she was relieved to see someone had come at last. She then looked over at Glaurung cautiously, she knew he would try and attack again soon*
-
cassandra had hung on tightly but now slipped and fell from the top of the dragons head to his nose, she looked into his big dark eyes, terrified
-
"Skaelris!" Meltharius shouted and the dragon soon realised what the elf wanted. He swooped at Glaurung and sent him flying backwards again. As Glaurung roared with rage Skaelris took his opputunity and stole Cassandra from his evil clutches and bore her to the ground and to safety.
-
(lol, i'm called cassandra but thanks for saving me anyway)
"we've got to do something that works in hurting it!" shouted cassandra to nienna
-
Legolas had been fireing his arrows at the dragon for a while but he was getting no where. He had not relised that help had arrived, but however he thought the dragon had backed away. Placeing his bow and arrow away he could see a dark shadow growing behind him,Ducking down the dragon swops behind him with its claws bared wide.
The dragon flys lower and its biggest claw swipes Legolas back, He yells in pain as he feels the dagger like claw drive threw his back.
He sees the dragon fly towards Meltharius, he feels his clothes getting more wet as the blood sokes threw.
(Just to say the wound is really bad but not so bad that he will die sorta thing? Earlyer on you all said there was more then one dragon so this is a different one to the one that Meltharius's mate has just stopped? nothing bad has happened to Legolas yet so i had to do something )
-
*Nienna saw Legolas fall, she ducked through fire and swipes from the Dragon and knelt by his side. She peered at his wound, and took out the unicorn horn which she kept in her pocket. She took out her dagger and clipped some dust off into her palm. She held out the dust infront of Legolas* "Here, take this, it will heal your wound"
-
Legolas can not turn round to take it
He says in a soft voice
"You......keep it......don't...waste it on.....me"
Legolas thinks he is going to die anyway
"Tell Meltharius i'm sorry"
Hes slightly delerious and confuesed about whats going on as the pain is taking over
-
"We're not going to leave you like this!" *Nienna said* "Just swallow this dust, it will heal you within moments...I only carry it for times like these" *She said with a weak smile on her face*
-
Legolas finaly gives in and takes some of the dust from Niennas hand and eats it. It doesnt taste to good but he can feel himself healing from inside to the out.
He stands up and moves around abit, Then smiles at Nienna and does something hes never done before and Hugs Her
"Thank-you" he whispers in her ear
-
"No problem" *Nienna said back to him, she then stood up* "I'm not sure whether this is the place to be saying our thankyou's right now though" *She said and looked over to Meltharius* "Is there anything I can do to help?" *She asked him, feeling uncomfortable just watching Skaelris having to fight off Glaurung*
(Right, am going on holiday today just popped in to say goodbye to everyone :P. I'm hoping I won't get too lost. Will miss ya all, c ya in a week ;D)
-
The second dragon swooped torward Meltharius but he held is ground. He waited untill the dragon was enarly upon him and then loosed an arrow at point blank range. The arrow flew at the dragon hitting the beast in the eye and then driving into its brain. The dragon died instantaneously and fell to the ground, nearly crushing Meltharius who only just managed to jump out of the way. He picked himself and dusted himself off "One down, only eleven more to go" he said. He looked up at the battle overhead. Skaelris had had the element of surprise at first but now he was being overwhelmed by Glaurung. "He cannot possibly win, we must help him" Meltharisu said.
-
(ok, i'm lost! in sort whats happened and where am i?)
-
Legolas turned aroun dand even tho he thought Meltharius wasnt right with him (After the incerdent about staying or going Legolas thinks Meltharius doesnt really like him anymore) He ran over by Skaelris and began to help him. Then while still shooting he looked over to Metharius.
-
(I am back!! And thanks people! This is the only RP I am not lost in!)
-
(well im confuzled, will you set the scene for me ::) :-\)
-
(Yeah, I'm kinda confused too though not much has happened ::)...I have no idea how to get back into this RP. And I have no idea what Nienna can do to help. She has only weak powers and her emotions are controlling them too and at the mo I'd say she was seriousley depressed ::))
-
(lol soz i seriously screwed up this rp havnt i?)
-
(I don't care! If anything you made it better, I seriousley need to work on my creative side! I swear I'm like reeeeally bad at making stuff up lol ::))
-
(you haven't screwed it because we'll get over it :P)
"are you ok now legolas?" asked cassandra running up to him
(thats my attempt)
-
(ever wondered y i kileld off my first character? ;D)
-
(lol, that's basically what broke Nienna *sighs* and then she looses her family. Whose next her dog?! If she has one that is :-\ lol!)
-
(lol, thats nice megz ;) we need to get this roleplay going and stop the :D but it's hard bcos we don't know where to start)
-
(Yeah, I'd agree. But where to start *scratches head in thought* I think I might have something)
*Nienna looked up fearfully, Dragons started to emerge from everywhere now. She looked over at Meltharius* "How though?!" *She shouted as she ducked out of the way of flames from a Dragon that hovered above her. She saw that the Dragon was in attacking position and if she wanted to live she had to do something and now. She thought quickly and muttered a few words of elvish and her eyes turned black. She lifted up her hands* "Fire and flame, a forgotten name, a forgotten soul. Give me the power to defeat! Give me power to win this war, let the power within me come to light! Give me the spirit of the night!" *She chanted in elvish, but her voice had somehow changed, it became powerful and more strong. Suddenley a bolt of lightening came down upon the Dragon and the light blue sky turned dark and nearly everything was pitch black. Then an electric orb appeared in Nienna's hand and she thrust it into the Dragon, weakening it greatly*
(I thought it was about time that something happened to Nienna to make her stronger. She's been kind of weak of late ::))
-
(aye, and cassandra's the weak chum with no powers or crap :'()
cassandra watched nienna, she wasn't sure whether she was ok, she had changed so much since it had all began and she so little
-
"Fire and flame, a forgotten name, a forgotten soul. Give me the power to defeat! Give me power to win this war, let the power within me come to light! Give me the spirit of the night!"
(That rhyme is soooooo totally bad!! Man, that must be my worst work ever! ::))
-
(note to self: kill niennas dog ;D)
Meltharius called to Skaelris again. The dragon landed and the elf climbed upon his back. The dragon had a leather sadle on his back and Meltharius settled in this and pulled a long lance from a sheath. "Lets fly Skaelris!" he shouted and they shot in the air.
-
(pmsl ;D an yea megz, you should go back to asda :P)
cassandra watched him get up, she envyed his strength but wished him the best, if only i could be strong and help those i love she thought
-
(yeeeeehaaaa! dragon knight ;D)
Skaelris swooped low at a drag that was bearing down on Destiny. Meltharius lowered his lance and prepared to meet the other dragon. There was a crunch as the dragons collided and Meltharius lunged at the other dragon. The dragon roared and Meltharius lunged again. The lance slid through the dragons open mouth and into its brain. The dragon screamed and fell to the ground.
-
(note to self: kill niennas dog ;D)
(LMAO! That should be fun!! :P)
(pmsl ;D an yea megz, you should go back to asda :P)
(wtf?! Oh, yeah, me know what you mean now, go back to Asda for inspiration from the fruit and veg! LMAO!)
*Nienna suddenley jumped and stumbled slightly, she was so surprised at what had happened. Her eyes soon returned to normal and she watched Meltharius and Skaelris defeat some of the Dragons. She had no idea what she was going to do now*
(Yeah, that's crap but who cares?!)
-
(cool ;D)
"i've got to get my act together, i've just got to!" mumbled cassandra after ahe was safe of the dragon, she closed her eys and kept thinking of everyone else doing there part and she'd done nothing when a white orb circle surrounded her, blue electria currents ran over the top but she didn't she it she just kept thinking about what a waste of space she was. she opened her eys and saw it. she banged against it and it didn't open and then she shouted "open!" and it did! she controlled it!
-
Legolas watched Nienna and Angel in amazment,while ducking and rolling from the fire of the dragons.
"Yes I'm fone thanks" he told cassandea
(whos megs? Cos thats my name too and i was getting confuesed! Welcome back Nienna!!!! :) )
-
(whos megs? Cos thats my name too and i was getting confuesed! Welcome back Nienna!!!! :) )
(Me iz Megz! :P Woah! That's too freaky...Hey Megz! he he feels like I'm saying hi to me ::)lol)
-
(Sounds good ;D)
*Nienna looked over at Legolas glad to see he was alright again*
(Yeah, short post, but I really have no idea what to do at the mo :-\)
-
Legolas see's Nienna looking at him and he smiles back, Then has an idea....
-
(lol so smeagol is megz. got ya :))
cassandra held out her hand infront of her and it seemed have a white light in the palm, she fired it at a tree and the tree broke in too, "nienna did you see what i just did, look, i'm not worthless," she shouted with a grin from ear to ear
-
"nienna did you see what i just did, look, i'm not worthless,"
(LOL! I like it Jess...Oh yeah, I'm not worthless anymore! :P...Sorry don't mean to critisize but ye know ::). Tis a feel happy moment ;D)
*Nienna smiled weakly, though she felt happy for her friend and she found a new power within herself, she still had the sorrows of what had happened daunting in her mind*
-
(erm legolas u cant put ur hand on my shoulder ro talk to me....im flying on a dragon currently)
-
(OMG sorry i missed that post!)
Legolas watches Metharius ride on the dragons back, He followed the dragon round with his eyes and as it drew near he lunged his sword into it's foot and pulled himself up onto it. He continued to do this up the dragons leg and upto Metharius.
"Thought you might need a hand" He Smiled while holding on tightly to the dragons back
-
(how many dragons and left? and what do we do now?)
cassandra ran over to nienna, "are we safe here?"
-
(I'm on top of the dragon with Metharuis and his mate!)
"Right.....what we doing with this big chunk of meat now Metharius?" He said hitting the dragon with his fist.
-
(This RP has kinda died...So me is gonna add a ickle twist :P)
*In the distance about 13 figures could be made out, all upon backs of horses they made their way towards the Dragons and the others. At the front a fair Elf rode on a grey horse, it was Eleclya*
(Okies, yeah, me is bringin Eleclya into this with all her powers heheheh ;D. Check the character bio's)
*Nienna looked up and saw a group of Elves heading their way, many she had seen before. They were from her home land Mirkwood. They appraoched quickly, many of the Dragons looked towards them and quickly turned their attention on the group*
*A blazing beam of fire hit the ground narrowly missing Eleclya and her horse. She and the others dodged countless atempts by the Dragons, they had obviously faught them off before. When Eleclya got nearer to the others she leapt off her horse and wheeled round to face the on coming Dragons.
She closed her eyes and started to mutter faintly in an ancient elvish tongue, she opened her eyes suddenley to reveal bright, glowing white eyes.
The other Elves formed what looked like a barrier behind her, she and the others held their hands up pointing straight to the sky. Beams of great, blinding light filled the atmosphere, they all joined together up into air to form one, large orb that was filled with a great amount of power. It crashed down upon two Dragon's at once, sending them flying towards the ground. They died instantly*
(btw how many Dragons is there exactly? I have no idea and this is my own RP ::) lol)
-
"Please do not do that" Skaelris grunted to legolas.
-
*Eleclya and the other Elves managed to finish the rest of the Dragons off, only just.
There were quite a lot dead but they were not all there, many were in the land of Men, destroying everything in their path. Eleclya stumbled sligtly and fell to the floor gasping for breath, using so much of her power deeply weakened her. She looked up to the others and gave them a faint smile. Once she caught her breath back she spoke* "I am Eleclya and we all are some of the survivors of Mirkwood. Unlike the other Elves we decided to stay. We've been tracking you for days now, I hope we didn't arrive too late" She said*
(yeah, that's simple, but i couldn't be bothered with another big post with all the powers in it ::))
-
Skaelris landed and Meltharius jumped off. He shouldered his lance and walked voer to Eleclya. "Well, Well, Well, I didn't expect you to show up" he said.
-
*Eleclya pulled herself up, still feeling quite weak but managed to stable herself. She smiled at Meltharius* "Well, here I am" *She said then she paused, a concerned look came across her face* "Not all the Dragons are dead just yet though, many still roam in the land of Men. That is were we are heading and you are all welcome to join us" *She said*
-
cassandra walked over to eleclya, "thanks for the help, it was much needed, i'm cassandra." said cassandra outstretching her hand to shake eleclya's
-
*Elelcya shook Cassandra's hand* "I'm Eleclya, it's nice to meet you" *She said with a friendly smile on her face. She then looked up and saw Nienna, she was pale, weak and almost lost. Eleclya walked over to Nienna, she knew her quite well though they were never that close as friends* "Nienna?! Is that you?" *Eleclya asked surprised, before Nienna was strong and full of life now she was a totally different person*
"It is me" *Nienna muttered just loud enough for Eleclya to hear*
*Eleclya looked quite shocked, as she looked at Nienna she could feel her sorrow. She turned to the others, knowing Nienna would mostly likely not want to talk about anything* "I can see you've all been through a lot, maybe that much that I could never understand how hurt some of you may be. But we have bigger matters on our hands. We will be setting out at dawn to Gondor, the road will be hard and dangerous. I am not asking you to come with us, but I know we're going to need all the help we can get"
-
Meltharius was annoyed by the fact that Elelcya was ignoring him. "You would have thought I'd getter a warmed welcome from my half-sister" he muttered to Cassandra.
(dun dun dun)
-
(lol ;D)
cassandra looked up, "really!" she asked a little shocked, "have you been wondering whether she was safe since elves were nearly wiped out?"
-
"Not really. I thought she had travelled to the undying lands" Meltharius explained.
-
(lol so I'm your half-sister now?! Ok, this should be fun :P ::))
*Nienna over heard the conversation between Meltharius and Cassandra, she was quite shocked. She looked from Meltharius to Eleclya and back again*
(ok crap but meh! I couldn't think of anything ::))
-
"ok, she seems really powerful and strong, alot like you, do you think she can help us?" asked cassandra
-
(yep, u can be the illigitimate daughter of my father...lol)
Meltharius weant over to Skaelris and patted his side. "You did well old friend" he said. "As did you" Skaelris replied. He turned back to Cassandra "No...She is much more powerful then me. She is the key to victory"
-
(ok what now megz, what victory are you going to win for us ;D)
cassandra noticed nienna was anxious, "she went to stand by her, "you ok?" she asked, she then looked up at Skaelris and nodded with respect
-
(Urm, I'll think of that when the time comes :P)
*Nienna nodded slightly* "I'll be fine, as usual" *She said forcing a weak smile on her face*
*Eleclya checked her weapons and her things then mounted her horse* "I suggest we find safer shelter than this. There's a forest up ahead, we may be safe in there for now" *She said*
-
Meltharius walked over to Nienna. "Are you ok?" he asked, a worried look on his face.
-
"Yes, there's more serious matters to worry about than me being ok" *Nienna said weakly, then she looked up at Eleclya* "I think we should do as she says, we are not safe here or anywhere, but we will be safer in the protection of the trees"
-
cassandra jumped up onto hr horse and followed eleclya
-
(shuldnt we wait for legolas?)
Meltharius climbed back onto Skaelris. "Sorry to use you as a method of transport but I'm afraid my horse has been roasted." he said to the dragon. "It's quite all right Skaelris said. He turned hsi head and looked at Nienna who looked quite forlorn. "Do you wish to ride to Mi'Lady?" he asked her.
-
(Yesh, me thinks we should ;D)
*Nienna smiled weakly* "I would be honoured" *She said and then she walked over and climbed on Skaelris and sat behind Meltharius*
*Eleclya set off at a gallop towards the forest, the other Elves followed on behind her in silence*
-
(ya sorry about that Metharius i didnt know you were riding your friend (cant remember his name) i thougth it was another dragon thats why i said "what do we do with this hunk of meat now" sorrrrryy!!)
Legolas begisn to clean his swords with a piece of old rag
"You fight well Metharius much better then you used to anyway" Legolas laughs
-
(Ok, this RP is kinda dying dudes ::))
*Eleclya lead them into a dark forest, the leaves rustled uncomfortably and the air seemed foul and tight. There was something not right about the forest. Eleclya took them deep into it, taking them round twisting roads, the path was covered in large tree roots that stuck out of the ground menacingly. Eleclya found a nice spot and dis-mounted, she lead her horse over to a tree and tied it up, then she turned to the others* "I'm going to check our surroundings, I'll send you word if I find anything" *She said and with that she disapeared cautiously into the darkness*
-
(tell me about it!)
Legolas waits with the other on Skaelris. He watches Eleclya walk away while smiling down at her.
-
cassandra dismounted and paced for a while, she took a deep breath and swung her arms
-
Legolas watches Eleclya walk away and climbs off the back of the dragon. He pat him thankfully and turns to face Nienna.
"What her name? I havent introduced myself to her yet" He askes her.
-
"She's called Eleclya, my sister. I must warn you she can be abit...tempremental most of the time" Meltharius grinned. He dismounted from Skaelris. "You have done all I dare ask now old friend. It was good to see you again" he said to the dragon. Skaelris nodded and within seconds shot into the sky. Soon he was but a speck on the horizon, and then he was gone.
-
*Eleclya krept through the forest cautiously, she heard a familiar noise nearby. She got closer and saw the faint outline of orc's. She had no time to get back to warn the others, she'd lead them straight to them. She closed her eyes and concentrated* "Orc's! Heading your way!" *She said to Meltharius telepathically*
-
"Orcs!" Meltharius cried and drew his sword. He pulled on his helmet and buckled the strap. "Dammit, first dragons now orcs, Oh well no rest for the wicked" he grinned. He waited for a few moments and then he heard an orc horn. "Come on!" he shouted.
-
cassandra mounted her horse again and clicked her tongue, "come on." she kicked the horse into a trot but it's feet with silent on the ground
-
*Nienna drew her sword ready for battle, she remained still and concentrated. She listened out for the Orc's, they were rapidly drawing closer*
*Eleclya drew her sword and revealed herself, making sure the others had time to prepare. She drove her sword into several Orc's at the front fiercely*
-
He Grinned back then Legolas quickly drew his two dagger, swinging them about to get the feel of them once again he stood there ready by Metharius side.
-
cassandra kept to the shadows and saw the orcs and elelcya, she quickly rode back, "she's fending them off, come on,"
-
Meltharius twirled his sword arround by the hilt and then sheathed it again. He instead drew a finely crafted spear and charged at the orcs, joining his sister in battle. He ducked and parried and killed many of the beast with ease.
-
*Eleclya spotted Meltharius and smiled. She then carried on fighting, swinging her sword swiftly into the Orc's knocking a few down at a time. She saw more rapidly coming out of no where, she knew she may have to use her powers though she didn't like to unless it was the only choice*
*Nienna closely followed Meltharius, holding her sword out she ran straight into the Orc's knocking them to their death with her sharp and deadly blade*
-
Legolas looked to Cassandra, then to the others.
"Come with me!"
He said while runing behind the trees, He ran far right then drew himself up behind the orcs with Cassandra close behind on her horse. Legolas ran in swords drawn Killing them from behind.
-
cassandra shot arrows from her horse she then charged through twisting swords through her fingers, making quick slashings st orcs she pushed past on her horse. as she reached the top of the group of orcs she turned on her horse, the sun setting behind her, she held her arm out infront of her and focused on an orc, it started to scream in pain and fell to the floor deaded
-
Legolas fort his way threw the orcs, slaying and knocking them down untill he reached Methrius.
"Hey" He grins at him while continuing to fight
"There not that bad once you get to know them" He shouts jokingly about the orcs over the screaming of them.
-
"Duck!" Meltharius cried. He faced legolas and thrust his spear into the orc that was about to stab Legolas. "You should really be more careful" Meltharius grinned.
-
the orcs turned, insulted by legolas's comment they seemed to go for him, cassandra drove her horse through the approching group spliting it up into 4 groups, she pushed back one group of about 15, they started to shoot arrows at her and charge with blades drawn, she held out her hand again and the weapons took a life of their own and attacked their beholder
(should we wait for others or a few more posts?)
-
"Thanks..and ya i will try" he said sarcasicly then went back to fighting them off.
"You wanna piece of me! Well come and get it!" He yells and slices the nearest orcs head off.
"God i miss the old days when we used to do this for fun!" He grined cheekly at Methrius.
-
"Battle should never be taken lightly Legolas" Meltharius said swinging his spear into an orcs stomach before impaling him. "You of all people should know that"
-
(I'm here, damn cuz wouldn't get his arse off the comp! >:()
*Eleclya faught her way through the Orc's, one approached her running straight at her, she swung her sword at it but it dived out of the way and sent a gash into her side. She winced slightly but then swiped her sword into it's neck, taking it's head straight off. She attempted to heal herself but Orc's seemed to come at her from all directions and she had to fight or she would get injured more seriously*
*Nienna faught quite near Eleclya, her sword was swift and light and it drove into the Orc's easily. She saw a few going for Eleclya so she turned and sliced her sword into one of their necks*
-
"I agree" He nods and Swings his swords around,Taking down as many orcs as he could.
"Still miss the old days tho!"
He turns around to hear Load grunting noise, looking around he sees a pair of Glearing eyes stareing at him from the bushes.
"WARGS!" He shouts
(did i spell that right? them wolf things?)
-
(yea ;Dlol)
cassandra rode her horse through dead orc bodies to the wargs, she charged at them on her horse, leapt off and onto the back of one of them
-
Meltharius flung his spear at a charging warg and the spear flew through the orc rider and into the one behind. The warg however pounced and threw Meltharius to the ground. He struggled to loose his sword from the sheath and as quick as he could thrust the blade deep into the beast. He pulled himself to his feet and looked around, the group had walked right into an ambush. "Damn it!" Meltharius cried. "Why did I not forsee this." He swung his blade round and drove it into another orc. He was about to charge another orc when he heard a twang, he turned around just in time to see an arrow stream through the air. The arrow pierced his dragon armour and forced its way into the flesh. "Archers!" Meltharius whispered. "Great..." he muttered and fell to the ground.
-
cassandra punched the orc rider andmade the warg charge at other wargs, it hit 2 others and fell against trees she jumped off, she ran over to meltharious and knelt down beside him, she created a shield over them and lifted his head gently
-
Legolas couldnt move to fight the wargs as Orcs still approched (sp). One Warg slowly crept up behind him out of Angel's sight, It licked its lips went to ponce at Metharius.
Legolas saw it jump but rolled and got cort underneath it. He held its paws and face away from his,the warg trying to rip legolas apart. Legolas kicked forward and landed on top of it, Therefore getting scratched slightly but he did not care.
Pulling his Sword out swiftly he drove it into the wargs stomack threw to its back. He threw it off of him and was yet again his clothes stained red.
(sorry abit too long but i got carried away)
-
Meltharius pushed Cassandra away and stood up. "This is hopeless, Leave me. I am wounded and therefore expendable. Go, I will make sure you have an escape route. I will buy you some time" he said.
-
legolas hears what Metharius tells Cassandra.
"We can not leave you!" He shouts ducking threw the arrows and running to Metharius.
"You and Eleclya are injured , I for certain am not leaving you two for Warg bait"
-
"No! You will all leave!" Meltharius cried. "There is no point in any of you dying!" he staggered but kept upright, his sword in his right hand. "Now go! And don't look back!"
-
*Nienna looked at Meltharius and a sorrow came over her face* "Last time I left someone I cared for they died!" *She said, feeling tears in her eyes but she held them back*
*Eleclya went up to Meltharius* "Call to me if you need me" *She said and then she turned to Nienna and put a hand on her shoulder* "He'll be fine" *She said with a slight smile on her face but she feared for her half brother. She then turned to Legolas* "This may be our only hope" *She said to him. Then she felt a piercing pain in her side, she looked down and saw an arrow embedded in her side just above her huge gash*
-
"Just go!" meltharius cried once more. He was deathly pale and the arrow wound was bleeding freely. "GO!" and he charged the orcs once more.
-
Legolas walked up to Metharius and muttered in Elvish
"Good luck my friend and bear strength"
He then nodded and ran back to Eleclya and the others
"How do we get out of here?" Trying not to look back at Metharuis, he new if he did he could never leave.
-
"There's a clearing up there, we may just make it.."*She shouted and she took a last look back at Meltharius but turned to face the view infront of her before she decided to go back. She started to run even though the pain in her side was unbearable. She made sure Nienna was infront of her at all times*
-
Legolas ran by Eleclyas side even tho he hardly new her.
"Come on you can make it...were nearly there"
He shouts and takes her hand to help her along.
-
*Eleclya smiled at Legolas* "Meltharius will be ok, I'm pretty sure of it, I think I know my half brother by now" *She said but there was doubt in her mind. She checked behind her to see Cassandra there running but then caught a glimpse of Meltharius. She pulled her sight away from him, knowing if she carried on looking she would have to turn and go back*
*Nienna kept running but tears were about to leak out of her eyes, she remembered the last time she ran away from something and it ended in death. Eltharion's death. How could she let this happen to his brother? she thought to herself but then she knew she was being stupid, she had to keep running for everyone elses sake*
-
Legolas smiled back, still kept hold of Her hand to keep her going.
"Are you ok Nienna!?" He askes her worriedly.
He looks back at Cassandra and smiles to see thats shes fine.
-
Meltharius looked at the others escape and smiled. He pulled off his helmet, letting his long dark hair fall to his shoulders. He turned away from them knowing that this would be the last time he would ever see them. "I'll be seeing you soon Eltharion" he thought. He watched the oncoming orcs coldly. He heard the twang of arrow strings. "Cowards" he muttered as the arrows streamed directly torwards him. He didn't even attempt to dodge them. He closed his eyes and waited for them to hit...He felt pain clutch him again. He fell to the ground with several arrows embedded in his body. He turned his head and made out the escaping figure of his sister and Nienna. He smiled and closed his eyes. He heard the orcs run past him...and then...silence.
-
(NOOOOO! NO NO NO NO NO!! YOUR SO MEAN! WHY DO YOU KILL ALL YOUR CHARACTERS OFF! NO! :'( )
Legolas Wished for Metharius to be ok and to find them soon, for if anything happened to him he could never forgive himself.
-
*Eleclya suddenley felt something, she jumped slightly and looked back, in between the Orc's she saw Meltharius' body. Her eyes widened with shock, fear and sadness, tears started welling up in her eyes but she knew she had to try and make sure the others didn't see. She concentrated for a moment, closing her eyes* "We need your help" *She said telepathically to one of the elves she had brought with her. Within moments, 12 elves appeared from the bushes and sent arrows flying towards the Orc's, making an escape route for them*
-
(just so you no i won't be on again untill sunday!)
Legolas watched the Elves fight off the orcs, He felt something was wrong but thought nothing of it.
"Right" He said breathlessly
"what do we do now?" "Wait for Metharius here or somewhere else?" He said hopefully to the others.
(just wanna say Metharius is soo clever! ;) )
-
(that he is but damn you people! you got me losted! :'( where am i?!)
-
(Sorry Jesbo! I made sure you were behind Eleclya and Legolas, don't worries, I'll get you back into it ;))
*Eleclya had to hold back her tears for the others, she couldn't let them know she saw Meltharius* "We must run!" *She said and she gave out a whistle, her horse followed by another 2 came galloping towards her. They halted straight infront of her, she mounted her horse Lessien and looked towards the others* "This is Vandir" *She said pointing towards a large, strong, beautiful chesnut coloured horse, it stood proudly on the grass and went up to Legolas allowing him to get on* "And this is Legéthien" *She said pointing towards a lightly coloured dapple grey mare who was slightly smaller than Vandir* "Respect these horses and they will respect you" *She said as Legéthien walked over to Nienna. Eleclya turned to Cassandra* "You may ride with me, Cassandra" *She said with a very faint smile*
-
"thanks," said cassandra, climbing up. she sat behind eleclya, "where are we going and where is meltharius?" she asked looking around
-
*Nienna mounted Legéthien and looked back slightly, she couldn't see Meltharius anywhere inbetween the huge groups of Orc's. She sighed and waited for the others*
*Eleclya looked down and tears welled up in her eyes, but she hid her face from Cassandra* "We must go, I will explain everything later" *She said and with that she kicked Lessien into a fast gallop and they shot off through the woods followed by Nienna and Legolas.
They had rode for quite a long time now, and the sounds of battle was far behind them. Eleclya came to a halt, she felt tiredness and sadness come over her. She looked back to the others* "We shall rest here tonight" *She said. After Cassandra dis-mounted Eleclya leapt off. She found a nearby rock and sat down waiting for the others*
*Nienna came to a halt and dis-mounted, she looked down at Eleclya and saw the exspression on her face* "Eleclya, what's happened?" *She asked in a concerned tone*
*Eleclya looked up at Nienna, Cassandra, and Legolas, her eyes shining with tears* "I should of told you this back there, but if I did I would of never got you to safety" *She paused* "Meltharius...is dead" *She muttered* "I saw his body among the Orc's...He wasn't moving..." *She said with her voice trailing off and looking back to where they had come from with sadness in her eyes*
*Nienna felt tears mount up in her eyes, she fell to her knees, and looked down to the ground* "I knew I shouldn't of left him" *She muttered half to herself. She felt empty, lost Eltharion, my family, now Meltharius...Gone she thought to herself, as she felt tears roll down her cheeks*
-
cassandra couldn't stop blinking, she had to hold back the tears, she was trembling all over, "how dare you make us leave! we could of..... we could..... we should.... i mean i don't know but why was it your choice to hide this from us!?" said cassandra, her eyes were red and tears poured down her cheeks
-
(all these tears over me...Im touched :'()
-
(yes yes, you can be special *says with lisp ;D)
-
Legolas jumped off his horse and looked to Eleclya, He face filled with shock his emotions over powering him.
He couldn't face all this, Legolas Turned and walked quickly towards the dence forest. He needed time alone.
-
cassandra wanted to say something to legolas but she was utterly speechless, she watched him walk away, she stared at eleclya then shook her head and stood, looking away, behind the horse
-
Legolas found a shallow, nearby river and sat beside it looking at his reflection.
"Damn you Metharius DAMN YOU!"
He shouts angryly and it echos threw the forest making birds fly away with fright.
Thoughts ran threw his head about he shouldnt have left him and many other things. By he respected that Metharius wonted them to.
-
(time to introduce my newesy character, meltharius' arch nemesis...Del Monte...only jkin :P)
Name: Malvorías
Race: Dark Elf
Age: ?
Des: Similiar appearance to Meltharius except for the fact that he has a large scar across his right eye.
Bio: Corrupted by powers unknown Malvorías attempted to destroy the elves but was defeated and imprisoned by Meltharius' father. He escaped and vowed to seek vegeance on those who had 'wronged' him.
Malvorías stalked through the trees silently, his sword drawn. "Where are you little elves" he called mockingly.
-
Legolas started to throw rocks into the water angryly, but stopped as he heard voices.
Drawing his bow and arrow he places it out ready to attack, Turning around swiftly he thinks it might be Eleclya or Cassandra,but still sure.
-
cassandra perked up her head, she had a bad feeling, "legolas!" she mumbled then ran off towards the woods, she ran through the trees and to the stream, she saw him and ran towards him. "legolas, legolas!" she said catching her breath, her cheeks were still damp with tears, "somethings not right, please we have to get out of this forest, please!"
-
"Nowhere to run! Nowhere to hide!" Malvorías called. He laughed manically and entered a clearing. Ahead of him stood a group of people. He twirled his sword around by the hilt and smiled.
-
cassandra turned to face him, for a moment she thought it was meltharius, "who are you?" she asked, her hand was trembling as she reached for her sword
-
"I am noone." Malvorías said. "But I am looking for someone you may know. Meltharius Stormbearer, you know him? Tell me where he is and I will spare you" he said.
-
legolas suddenly said with his arrow pointing right at ths stranger.
"He is dead!" still trembling slightly with the shock, He stood infront of Casandra to protect her.
-
cassandra put her hand on legolas's shoulder, another tear rolled down her cheek, she trembled and dropped her sword, it clashed onto the ground
-
Malvorías looked shocked. "You are wrong, I would know if he was dead. Very well then, Where is his sister?" he asked.
-
Legolas wonted to see if Cassandra was ok but didnt dare take his arrow from the stranger direction.
"WHAT DID YOU WONT WITH HIM ANYWAY!"
He said angryly, But couldnt help but think he did look strangly like Metharius.
-
Malvorías smiled. "I want to kill him. Are you sure he's dead, did you see him die? How odd..." he said thoughtfully.
-
Legolas did not no what to say, He couldnt think of any words to show how much he hated this man already.
It felt like he had known this stranger forever but had never seen him before.Legolas feared for Eleclyas life, he wasn't sure what to say about her. He just stared down the stranger coldly, Not looking at anything or anyone else.
-
*Eleclya hadn't noticed the others had disapeared, she had her head down in her lap and silent tears came down her face. She suddenley shuddered and lifted her head. The others had gone, she knew something must not be right. She got up and peered closely at the ground, she saw footprints and followed them cautiously. A short while after she heard voices, she approached silently and through the dark shade of green she saw 3 figures. Cassandra and Legolas stood there, not injured or hurt, but then she saw Malvorías. She gasped with shock and hesitated for a moment then strode out of the bushes to face him* "What is your business here?!" *She demanded staring him straight in the eye*
-
cassandra turned suddenly when she saw eleclya, she had been concentrating on holding back her emotions but eleclya had made her jump and a white beam shot from her at Malvorías's feet bringing up a cloud of dust, she looked at legolas, "i.....i'm....i'm sorry.....i'm still getting the hang on them." she said stuttering and upset
-
"I hear your brother's dead...Can it be true?" Malvorías asked.
-
*Eleclya glared at Malvorías but it weakened, she looked down with a saddened face* "I saw his body" *She mumbled not wanting to say anything else*
-
"Oh well....No big loss, I'll just have to find a new enemy" Malvorías said. "SO hwo did he die?" he asked sitting down sounding genuinely interested.
-
*Eleclya looked up and narrowed her eyes at Malvorías* "Does it matter?!" *She shouted nearly in tears* "All you care about is that he's dead!"
-
"On the contrary my dear. I care about nothing. Well maybe fulfilling my own desires. It is a shame I didn't have a chance to finish that fool myself" Malvorias said.
-
"He was no fool! And you would of never killed him" *Eleclya said angryly tears welling up in her eyes. She felt a slight tingle in her fingertips and she looked down, sparks were flying from each one. She tried to control her emotions, she knew if she let them overtake her she wouldn't be able to hold her powers back*
-
cassandra saw the sparks, "eleclya, don't let him get to you!"
-
*Eleclya listened to Cassandra's words but they sounded muffled like something was trying to block her voice out. She looked up at Malvorías with narrowed eyes* "I advise you to get out of here now!" *She said through clenched teeth*
-
Malvorías smiled. "Do you honestly think I would just leave. No, I came here to fight with your brother but seeing as he's dead I will have to fidn another challenge" he said looking arround at the others. "WHo will face me in single combat!?" he asked. He was surprised to hear a voice from behind him answer. "I will!" Malvorías wheeled arround to face the speaker. "Well, well, well, I was under the impresion you were dead...Meltharius" he said.
-
*Eleclya looked at Meltharius amazed. She couldn't believe it* "Meltharius?! I-I thought you were...Dead!" *She said taken away by shock*
*Nienna had been sat on a rock, quite a distance away from the others. She looked up at the sound of Meltharius' voice. A smile came across her face* "Your alive!" *She said with happiness filling up inside of her*
-
Legolas suddenly dropped his bow and turned to see Metharius.
Happyness filled his face, He had never been so pleased to see anyone in his life.Then looking back at Malvorias it fled.
Legolas stared at Metharius, He didnt understand how he was still alive, but didn't won't to lose his dear friend again.
-
( ;D it's a miracle! he's alive)
cassandra's mouth dropped open, "i...i can't beleive it," she stuttered and a smile grew on her face, she turned to legolas and grinned, "it's all ok," but then she turned to Malvorias and her smile faded. she was now lost for words, she despersatly didn't want meltharius to fight Malvorias
-
Meltharius smiled and threw down his armour which still had the arrows embedded in it. He had only minor wounds, the armour had stopped the arrows before they could penetrate deeply into his flesh.
"Well, well, well. And to think I actually believed them when they said you were dead." Malvorías said.
-
cassandra scowled, she knew it was his own fight but she couldn't help feeling anxious and hating him, she kept her emotions steady incase of another spill from her powers
-
Legolas looked at Malvoiras coldly.
He Mutters in elvish,he had his hand over the handle of his sword,then he looked at Metharius.
"Who is this man Metharius?!"
-
"He is my other self, My alter-ego, He is everything I am not." Meltharius explained.
"Enough talking...Shall we dance" Malvorías mocked.
-
Legolas gripped his sword tightly, but knw it might start something if he drew it.
"What do you wont from us!!" He shouts at Malvorias.
Feeling the angry slowly growing in him.
-
*Eleclya looked from Meltharius and Malvorías uneasily. She could see a look in Malvorías' eyes, a evil look, but even more so than usual. She didn't like the situation one bit*
-
Legolas feeling his angry increasing inside him.
"I SAID WHAT DO YOU WONT FROM US!" He stared down Malvorias coldly, not taking his eyes off him untill he got an answer.
-
"I don't want antyhign from you fool! Now get off my back, this is between me and Meltharius." said Malvorías coldly. He readjusted his vambraces and stared at Meltharius.
Meltharius tested his sword with a few twirls and flicks. "Ignore him Legolas, hes not worth your time...He's all mine" he said.
-
Legolas grinned slightly at Metharius, he knew how great a fighter he was and thought that Malvoiras was no match for Metharius.
"Why were you muttering on your way threw the trees, Where are you little elves, come out where ever you are?"
Legolas asked him with an odd look on his face astho Malvoiras was mad.
-
Malvorías stared at Legolas with a strange look. He finnaly answered "Because I'm insane" he said and laughed manically. "Well now Meltharius, lets get on with it...Your friends are startign to bore me"
"With pleasure" Meltharius smiled readying himself.
Malvorías charged at Meltharius and soon they were engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
-
He finnaly answered "Because I'm insane"
(lmao! ;D yey madness, ;D it's contagus(*sp) i'm insane too :P)
cassandra was alittle scared, she clung onto legolas's shoulder and watched fearfully
-
Legolas looked down at cassondra and smiled.
"Its Metharius..he knows what hes doing he'll be fine" he whispered, trying to convince hisself more then Cassondra.
He watched the figth anxoiusly. legolas wonted to help but forced himself not to.
-
*Eleclya couldn't watch the fight any longer, she strode off into the depths of the forest on her own, trying to block out everything. She walked through the twisting trees, pushing them out of her way as she went. Soon the sound of clashing swords were far behind her. She came to a peaceful clearing, no sound was uttered excepted for the brush of wind through the trees. She slumped herself down on a nearby rock and sighed sadly. She gazed into the forest meaninglessly and wished her worries away...*
*Nienna watched the battle uneasily, fear was deep within her eyes. She turned her back on the fight, she couldn't watch it any longer, she couldn't bare the thought of seeing Meltharius die right infront of her eyes*
-
The two fought for hours, every blow was anticipated by the other combatant and neither managed to hit a single blow on the other. They didn't seem to tire either, two hours later the fighters were just as vigerous as at the begining. Occasionally they broke off, exchanged a witty remark or two and then continued. Both Meltharius and Malvorías seemed to be enjoying themselves.
-
cassandra followed eleclya after whispering to legolas and nienna she was going to check on her, she wandered through the trees, calling her name
-
Legolas Smiled and gave Cassandra a hug before nodding good-bye and sitting next to Nienna.
"Doing well arn't they?"He said trying to lighten up the mood.
"Am i the only one who wonts to interupe this?" He asked her as he wished he could.
He picked up a stone and started throwing it in the air, he went to catch it and it bounced off of his hand and barely missing Malvoiras.
-
Malvorías charged agains but this time somethign strange happened. As he ran torward Meltharius the air started to ripple as if it were water. As Malvorías brought his sword to bear on Meltharius' own blade there was a flash of pure white light. And both elves cried in surprise and pain. A mist descended from nowhere and neither could be seen.
-
Legolas stood there in pure shock,
"Methrius...." He muttered shaken by what just happened.
"METHARIUS!" he shouted angryly thinking he had lost his friend again.
"Not again..." He turned around then looked back to where they had dissapeared.
-
From the mist rose a figure who seemed to radiate pure white light. His voice seemed to have two tones at once. "Interesting" the figure said. The light faded and an elf was clearly visable. Neither Meltharius nor Malvorías, this was a combination of the two. "Soooo much power, I never thought I would ever be whole again..."
-
*Nienna suddenley jumped and stood up, she turned to see the figure infront of her. She stood in complete shock* "Meltharius?" *She asked confused*
*Eleclya heard her name being called but made no reaction, she flinched slightly as the wind whipped her cheeks and sent a chill down her spine. She continued to watch the forest, not making a movement or sound*
-
"Yes, that is my name...Meltharius..." The elf said. "But I am finally whole again, Allow me to explain. Many years ago I was out exploring the woods near Merizar when I came upon these ruins. Curious, I touched them and was trapped within them for many years. My two halfs, good and bad, were forced to do battle constantly. Finally we were released seperately. The good half Meltharius and the bad part Malvorías warred constantly until our father finally imprisoned Malvorías. But now we have come together and we are one once more" Meltharius said. "I could take either name, But I choose Meltharius" he said smiling.
-
*Nienna couldn't believe it, who was she to believe? she thought, was this really Meltharius talking or Malvorías. She took a step back* "How do I know this is not Malvorías playing his tricks on me?" *She asked cautiously*
-
legolas grinned at him and placed his sword away.
"Good to have you back" he said and patted him on the shoulder, then playfully clipped him around the head with his hand
"And don't you ever do anything like that again! Making us leave you and making us think you were dead!" He laughed then fell silent, and listen to what Nienna said. He aslo stepped back with her and looked at him funny
"Prove your Methrius!" He said seriously
-
"Because I was good in the first place Nienna" said Meltharius stepping forward and putting his hand on her cheek. "Malvorías was just a manifestation of the evil that lies in all people, but he is a tiny part of me. It is me, It IS Meltharius" he said looking into her eyes.
-
He smiled and stood watching Metharius, He couldnt believe he was back....and for good!
" I don't think I'v ever been so pleased to see you"
-
(damn you people! fast roleplayers! meh! but aww i got a hug and i'm now lost ::) :( could do with another mybe this time from jeremy sumpter ;D :D)
-
*Nienna looked back up at Meltharius, she looked deep into his eyes and after a moments thought she could see it was him* "What happened?" *She asked* "Back there with the Orc's?"
(Just come up to Eleclya, after all you are calling her name ::))
-
"Like I said before, It was good armour...And the orcs assumed I was dead so they were thought it more prudent to chase after you then see if I really was dead." Meltharius explained. He felt his face with his hand, "It appears I have kept some of Malvorias traits" he said indicating the scar accross his eye.
-
"I'm just glad your back, I don't know what would of happened to us without you" *Nienna said with a smile coming across her face*
-
(errrm dopey moment of embarassment but where are you and if u want to help me you can answer me calling you!)
-
(I'm in this clearing and eleclya isn't answering right now, leave a message and she'll get back to you ::) lol, just kidding :D. Erm, just pop up beside me or something)
-
(lmao ;D)
"eleclya," called cassandra again, she walked through a clearing and saw her, "you ok? you didn't answer me," (or pick up the phone :P)
-
Legolas walks up to metharius and smiles.
"Your some fighter!" he tells him,
"But.....atleast that scar makes ME the more handsomest one out the two of us!" He laughed .
-
"You wish!" laughed Meltharius pushing Legolas away.
-
Legolas laughed once again and steddyed himself .
"But everyone new before that i was the better looking one! No really It's really good to have you back." He smiled and patted him on the back.
"Rigth! what do we do now oh WHOLE one!" He moved as he thoight he might get pushed once again.
-
Meltharius smiled but suddenly convulsed and fell to the ground. "Gaaagh" he cried. He twitched for a second or two and then stopped and got back to his feet clumbsily. "Sorry, Still not used to this new body" he explained. "I'll take a while to adapt"
-
Legolas laughed slightly then looked at Nienna.
"Are you ok?" He asked and put his arm around her friendly.
"wheres Cassandra and Eleclya?" He asked her.
-
"Cassandra! Eleclya! Where did they go?!" *Nienna asked, not noticing that they had gone*
*Eleclya looked up and sighed* "I'm over here Cassandra" *She said miserably*
-
"Sorry, i remember Cassondra telling me she had gone to find Eleclya" He smiled "best leave them be i think"
He sat down on a large rock.
"What do we do now?" Legolas said with a tone of Boreness in his voice.
-
"Who knows..." said Meltharius sitting next to Nienna. "All I know is that I need some rest before we move on"
-
"I think we all do" *Nienna said, feeling her own tiredness over come her suddenley*
-
(sorry people but im away for 2 days! do what you like miss me if you like, if you go crazy ill catch up so dont worry :) byexxxx have good weekends (ill be back sunday!) )
-
*Eleclya turned round and saw Cassandra walking towards her. She had nothing to say so she turned back round and gazed into the air*
*Nienna smiled, she was happy to see Meltharius was back and well. She went to find a compfy spot under a large tree and soon she fell asleep...*
-
(easier said then done, i will always b stupid ;D)
(nothing to say to me!? what did i do wrong?)
-
(No! Gawd, your getting worse than me! Eleclya doesn't have nothing to say, simple! She doesn't know the fight is over yet and she is worried about Meltharius so she's being all quiet and miserable ::))
-
Meltharius drew his sword and started to clean it on the damp grass.
-
cassandra sat down next to eleclya, she put her head in her hands and sat in silence unaware of whether meltharious had won or not
-
"Do you think we should go back?...To check on things" *Eleclya asked with a worried tone to her voice. She looked back slightly, but nothing could be seen or heard*
-
cassandra sighed and pushed back whisps of her hair from her face, she sighed and nodded, "yea, i think legolas is still there too."
-
*Eleclya nodded and got to her feet, she started to walk back. She felt nervous, what would she find? She couldn't bare to think of it*
-
cassandra followed
-
Meltharius, happy that his sword was now clean, sheathed it and leant against a tree.
-
(Nienna is back with Meltharius and Legolas ::))
*Eleclya went on through the bushes, pushing them out of the way as she walked. All was dim and dull except for the few cracks of light coming through the trees. As she approached she saw Meltharius through the bushes alive and well. A smile came across her face as she carried on walking, she was a few feet away from the others when she stopped* "Glad to see your well" *She said still smiling*
-
Meltharius looked up, putting has hand up to shield his eyes from the sun. "Well is an understatement, I'm complete" he smiled.
-
cassandra smiled and managed a laugh as she came through the trees and saw him well or even better than well
-
"So Malvorías is no more?" *Eleclya asked slightly relieved*
*Nienna woke up to hear voices, she smiled as she saw Eleclya and Cassandra. She got up feeling better, she started to think things were getting better, but the threat of the dragons were still upon them*
-
"In a manner of speaking" said Meltharius getting to his feet.
-
"so he could still come back?!" asked cassandra a little worried, she glanced at nienna and smiled
-
Legolas had been asleep for a good short while. He didnt wake up to them talking,only turned over and slowly slipped onto the ground Still not waking up.
He muttered in his sleep
"Leave me alone...leave....alone" and twitched slightly.
-
cassandra walked over and shook him gently, "legolas? it's ok, wake up."
-
Legolas shouted "Leave me alone!" Then suddenly woke up.
"W-what?......oh sorry" He sat up and rubbed his eyes.
"Was having a dream" He smiled and shook his head getting rid of the thought.
-
"what about?" asked cassandra out of pure interest, she felt asthough a weight had been lifted off her shoulders and like she could afford to listen
-
*Eleclya had been ignoring what had been going on around her, instead she listened intently to what was happening outside the woods. Suddenley she heard a faint beat of wings against the wind* "Quiet!" *She whispered in a panic. Everybody fell silent and the beat of the wings could be heard getting louder and louder. Minutes had gone by for what had seemed like forever and soon the sound was gone.
Eleclya sighed with relief, but her face was serious* "We must move on from here, the Dragons are on the move and it will only be a matter of time before this place is over-run by them" *She said with concern*
-
cassandra nodded and held out her hand to help legolas to his feet
-
"No rest for the wicked eh?" Meltharius grinned pulling himself to his feet. "We'd better get moving soon"
-
*Eleclya smiled slightly* "Well, lets waste no time then. We best be on our guard though, I've got a feeling more Dragons will be on their way" *She said. Then she walked over to the 3 horses that were used to get away from the battle. Eleclya mounted hers and waited for the others*
*Nienna mounted her horse, it was a medium sized, lightly coloured dapple grey mare. She looked over at Eleclya* "It seems we have two horses sort" *She said*
"We're going to have to ride in pairs, unless we find any other horses" *Eleclya said simply*
-
cassandra helped legolas to his feet and looked around, she whistled and the final horse trotted to her and legolas and jumped up herself, "you ride with me if you want."
(thought i'd help move legolas since lord aragorn hasn't been on)
-
(thank you sorry everyone but my comp wasnt behaving it it went all strange but im back now!!)
legolas mounded Cassondras horse.
"thanks" he said and smiled at Cassondra, He placed his bow and arrows away and told her.
"Oh it was nothing...." he says embarresingly to her about his dream, he lied as it wasnt something he really wonted to be sharing.
It wasn't astho it was embarresing but it was just something that made him feel threatened and didnt wont to worry anyone.
-
cassandra was suspicious but said nothing, she turned the horse to face eleclya, "so where to?"
-
Meltharius looked around. "Well Skaelris is long gone and my horse was eaten by Glaurung, so it appears I have no mount" he said.
-
"share with nienna," smiled cassandra
-
"May I?" Meltharius asked Nienna.
-
Legolas didnt feel right about lieing to Cassondra, he sat quietly behind her thinking about what he saw in his dream. The images of the town..burning and a tall dark feaful figuer standing over him..
-
cassandra felt legolas tense up, "you ok? you can tell me you know."
-
(wait for megz)
-
*Nienna looked down at Meltharius and smiled* "Of course you can! Why wouldn't I let you!" *She said laughing a little*
*Eleclya looked at the others* "We must ride for Gondor. There is where the Dragons are hitting Middle-Earth the hardest. We must ride to their aid. I know past experiences back there haven't been so nice, but we must do this for mankind" *She said firmly*
-
Meltharius climbed onto the horse behind Nienna, wrapping his arms around her waist so he wouldn't fall off. "Shall we go then?"
-
*Eleclya nodded. She kicked the sides of her horse firmly and it shot off at a fast gallop* "Stay together! And don't wander far!" *She shouted back to them against the wind as she dashed in and out of the trees*
*Nienna followed on, just a little behind Eleclya* "Hold on" *She said to Meltharius as they swerved side to side, dodging branches and trees*
-
"Hurry up!" Meltharius shouted back at Legolas and Cassandra. He turned back to Nienna. "You know, I reckon that they have something between them, If you know what I mean" Meltharius grinned.
-
"yes i know...but" legolas shouted as the wind made it hard to hear
"I don't wish to worry anyone" She heald on tight to the saddle of the horse.
-
*Nienna smiled* "Yeah, I know what you mean...I'm happy for them" *She said. She really was happy, she hadn't been in a while now and it was the best feeling ever. But she was dreading going back to Gondor, she knew she would see it all again replaying over in her head. She tried to block her thoughts and focuss around being happy*
-
Meltharius could tell that there was soem kind of conflict going on inside Nienna. "Are you ok?" he asked her, he was very concerned.
-
"I'm fine...Really" *Nienna lied, but doubt was still in her mind. She thought of telling Meltharius what was troubling her, but talking about was no use to her, she knew it would just bring back her pain*
-
cassandra glanced at legolas then pushed their horse on faster to catch up, she looked at nienna's troubled face, she was worried, they'd been best friends for so long and been through all this together, she wanted to help her so much!
-
"Don't lie to me Nienna, I can tell something is wrong" Meltharius said to Nienna. "You know you can tell me anything"
-
*Nienna sighed, she had given in, she knew she couldn't keep it from him any longer* "It's Eltharion" *She muttered sadly* "I know going back to Gondor will bring back all the memories...And...I don't know whether I can cope with seeing it all again"
-
(Ah Eltharion, I forgot about that git)
A look of realisation flashed across Meltharius' face. "Oh..." he said, not sure of what to say.
-
cassandra steered her and legolas's horse to nienna and meltharius's horses side, "i know he was a big part of you, but your so much stronger, think of all you've overcome and we're still together," she said with a weak smile, "and i haven't fogotten about you legolas, spill whats troubling you."
-
( ::) yeah, he was a git wasn't he? :P)
*Nienna remained silent, she knew she shouldn't of told Meltharius, but she couldn't help it, she needed to get it off her chest. She turned and smiled weakly at Cassandra, she was glad to have her, if it wasn't for her she wouldn't of made it out of Minas Tirith alive!
She turned to face the road again, trying to concentrate on that to clear her mind*
-
legolas smiled weakly.
"ok...ok..but please don't be alarmed or tell the others?"
Legolas sat upright and began to tell cassondra about his dream then he got the the important bit.
"The village..burning, everyone screaming..." He shuddered and continued in a troubled shakey voice.
"Then a strange tall dark thing, i wasnt sure if it was human or not...but it stood over me..laughing...and i could feel great pain.." He stopped and looked up at Cassondra and relised your not ment to feel pain in dreams.
-
Meltharius thought for a moment. "Look Nienna, I'm not sure how to say this...But, Eltharion, he...He was possesed, and not just after his supposed death, he was for many years before." he tried to explain as clearly as he could, but he found it really hard.
-
*Nienna didn't know what to say, she tried to speak, but nothing but breath came from her mouth. After a few moments she managed to find her voice* "W-What?" *She mumbled, almost too quietly for anyone to hear* "H-How?"
-
"He was never on our side! He has been possesed by the spirit of Melkor for nearly 10 years" Meltharius blurted out.
-
"But..." *Nienna started, she still couldn't come to terms with what was going on* "Do you mean...What happened between me and Eltharion was...Nothing" *She said, feeling tears welling up inside her eyes*
-
"All part of Melkor's twisted plan to regain a hold in this world, I didn't tell you until now because I didn't know how to" Meltharius said.
-
*Nienna felt a tear fall down her cheek. There was quite a long silence then she spoke* "T-Thanks, Meltharius...For telling me" *She said, tears still falling from her eyes*
-
"Nienna....I can't lie to you, I love you" Meltharius suddenly exclaimed.
Cue mushy love song....
Gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I'm older
This mountain I must climb
Feels like a world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
Can't stop now, I've traveled too far
To change this lonely life
I want to know what love is
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I know you can show me
I'm gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I've got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me
In my life there's been heartache and pain
I don't know if I can face it again
I can't stop now, I've traveled too far
To change this lonely life
I want to know what love is
I want you to show me
I want to feel what love is
I know you can show me
Lol sorry, I just suddenly had this idea...So shoot me :P
-
(shoots Metharius!! lol :P)
Legolas looks at the ground and think he shouldnt have told Cassondra what he just did.
(will cassondra be online again soon? as i cant really carry on untill she replys! lol )
-
(She won't be on again till tomorrow)
*Nienna kept silent, the tears stopped falling from her eyes as she tried to catch her breath. She couldn't believe it, Meltharius loved her? But why? She was a broken wreck after Eltharion. But, now, after what Meltharius had said, Eltharion was meant to break her. And she couldn't deny her feelings for Meltharius* "I love you too, Meltharius" *She said feeling a happiness starting to come into her heart*
*Eleclya had been up ahead for a while now and was unaware of what was going on. She looked up to the sky seeing that it was starting to get dark* "We'll rest for the night over there!" *She said pointing towards a few trees grouped together not too far ahead*
-
They all set up camp.....
(ok i can think of anythin else for them to do, can u?)
-
(I'll think of something! ;))
*Eleclya looked around seeing everyone was silent, she thought it was strange but she just shook her head. After the camp was set up she looked over at the others* "Stay here, I'm going to go check our surroundings and see if it's safe here. I think you all need some rest" *She said with a slight smile. Then she disapeared into the forest...*
*Nienna sat down and lighted a fire in the middle of their camp. She sat back against a tree and dazed into the flames, thinking about what had happened*
-
Meltharius lay down, resting his head on Nienna's lap and staring into the sky.
-
*Nienna ran her fingers through Meltharius' hair* "I never thought it would turn out like this" *She said with a smile on her face. She paused, the smile disapearing* "I know you probably don't want to talk about this but...What was Eltharion like before he was...Possessed?" *She asked, still shocked and hurt by it all*
-
(it all falls apart without me! ;D and how comes whenever i don't come on for a day then megz gets into a love thing!)
cassandra sat down next to legolas, "i'm glad you told me, it was very brave of you," she said shyly
-
"He was...Does it matter?" Meltharius asked, he was soo tired. Tired of fighting, tired of seeing people die, and just plain tired.
-
"No, you just rest ok? We've all travelled far and been through a lot" *Nienna said softly feeling tiredness coming over her too*
*Eleclya held her sword out steadily infront of her as she listened carefully to what was around her. Something was not right about this place, she could feel it. She jumped suddenley as she heard a crow scouring the lands above her, the trees moved uneasy in the wind and it seemed like their was an echo all around her. She started to breath heavily as a sudden fear came across her, she heard the bushes rustle just a few feet away from her. She turned swiftly towards it and kept her gazed fixed on it, ready for anything*
-
cassandra turned and looked around, she slowly got to her feet and listened intently, she slowly walked the way elelcya had taken silently, somwthing wasn't right
-
Legolas looked up at cassondra, then stood up and went over to her.
"What is it?" he asked worriedly"And thanks...for listening" He smiled and looked at the ground.
-
*Nienna wasn't paying attention to Cassandra and Legolas, she was feeling too tired, she wanted to stay awake but her eyes felt so heavy. She soon drifted off to sleep with her head leaned against the trunk of the tree behind her*
*Eleclya's eyes darted into each corner as more rustles from the bushes came to her hearing* "Show yourselves!" *She said firmly as she turned suddenley with each noise*
-
Meltharius started to doze off slightly too. He yawned and stretched and settled back down upon Nienna's lap, a look of utter content on his face.
-
cassandra smiled back at legolas, ut edged on in the direction eleclya had taken, "something isn't right," she muttered
-
"What is it Cassondra...somethings troubling you?" he walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder.
-
"somethings out there, somethings out there with eleclya!" said cassandra looking up at his face and then into the echoing darkness
-
*Eleclya couldn't take the intense pressure anymore, she went over to the bush and pushed away the leaves with her sword. There was an injured body among the leaves and twigs, she knelt down beside the person and turned his body so she could see who it was. It was a Gondorian Ranger, he had a message tied to his belt. It read...
'We are in grave danger, Dragons are attacking from everywhere and Minas Tirith is about to fall. Rohan won't aid us, they lock themselves away until they get attacked. You are our only hope. Please help us!'
Suddenley there was a loud crack, Eleclya turned to see that hundreds of Orc's had just surrounded her. She got to her feet dropping the message* "Hope you got the message in time!" *Came the fowl voice of the leader. Eleclya scowled and held out her sword* "You will not kill him!"
(Crap message, I know, but meh!)
-
cassandra heard something and darted through the bushes until she came out next to eleclya, the ranger and the orcs, "having all the fun?" she said although she wasn't quite sure she'd call the situation a day at the beach
-
"Hmm" *Eleclya said glaring at the Orc's* "Why have you come? You serve no purpose here!" *She said angrily*
"Oh, but we do" *Said the Orc with an evil glint in it's eye* "Our orders are to destroy you and your fellow friends here" *He said chuckling slightly*
"You will never harm them aslong as I live!" *She said fiercely*
"Find the rest!" *The Orc ordered*
*Eleclya scowled as a large number of Orc's divided off into the trees. She charged towards the Orc's her sword drawn*
*Nienna murmed slightly as she heard footsteps but she was too tired to open her eyes from her sleep*
-
Meltharius stirred restlessly but still remained asleep.
-
(meltharius and nienna are comfy! ::))
cassandra leapt over an orc that charged straight for her, she closed her eyes, bringing energy to her hands, when she reopened her eyes they were white and a white orb with black electricity flowing through it formed in her hands, she threw it at the orcs
-
legolas wasnt sure weather to follow but if something was wrong he wonted to stay put to help protect Nienna and Metharius. He heard rustling and shouting. Legolas drew his daggers and waited.
"Nienna...Metharius...wake up" but it was no use he couldnt shout to load otherwise he would be heard and it wasnt load enough for them to hear him.
-
Tomorrow night my comps going away for a week and i wont be able to post!! it will be back at the end of the week tho! Dont miss me too much and ill catch up when i get back! Love Megsxx P.s after school tomorrow ill post afew times on each of the rp's im in, depending if anyone else posts too but ill postb the day my comp comes back ok?!
-
cassandra put a hand on eleclya's arm and tugged her back, "come on, we need to lead them back to the camp!" she ushered urgently
-
He heard rustling coming from all directions,he still held his swords and ran over to Methariuses side and shook him.
"Shhhh! Orcs are coming Quickly!" he stood back up and turned swifly in all dirctions.
-
Meltharius stirred restlessly. "That nice..." he said dreamily, not realising what was going on.
-
Legola sdid care anymore they were on there way and he couldnt stop them.
"METHARIUS!!!" He shouted and hoped it would wake him up eh didnt see as he couldnt take the chance to look anywhere else.
-
*Nienna jumped and awoke with a shock as Legolas shouted, she then heard it. The appraoching Orc's grew nearer and nearer with each second* "Meltharius! We're under attack!" *She said shaking him slightly*
"No! We must stand and fight against them!" *Eleclya shouted towards Cassandra. She ran through the Orc's swinging her sword out fiercely, she suddenley felt a slight tingle in the tips of her fingers. She looked down and flashes of tiny lightening were coming from her fingers. She concentrated and started to muttered some sort of ancient elvish language. Suddenley her eyes shot open and they glowed a bright white, in both of her hands 2 orbs formed, she threw them easily into the on-coming Orc's*
-
Meltharius scrambled to his feet and drew his sword but the orcs were already right ontop of him. He cursed his foolishness, now wishign he'd had the time to put on his armour, he felt naked without it. He slashed, stabbed parried and kicked out at the orcs but quickly he took wounds due to the fact that he was used to fighting with armour...
-
*Nienna sprang to her feet after Meltharius and drew her sword, she started to brutally kill the Orc's off one by one. She turned and swung her sword at one of the smaller Orc's, but it ducked just in time and her sword hit a tree trunk. The Orc swung for her but she managed to pull her sword out and chop it's head off just in time. She gasped slightly as she caught her breath then went back into the main group of Orc's*
-
cassandra sighed and leapt into the air, somersaulting over the orcs, she landed and turned quickly, swiping at the orcs with her sword, she then raised her hand and her eyes glowed black and the ground shook and a line of orcs fell
-
Legolas swong,wiped and slained orcs and got covered in bllod which thankfuly wasnt his.
"Theres no end to this!" he shouted over the roaring of coming orcs.
-
"We'll find a way" *Nienna shouted back to Legolas as she swung at another Orc* "To win this forever lasting battle!" *She said feeling hope once in her again. She glanced over at Meltharius before turning and slicing an Orc's neck*
*Eleclya continued to chant in her ancient words, the Orc's started to look slightly scared, seeing her and Cassandra's power. Suddenley, rain started to fall down on the Orc's, but not just any rain, it was tiny orbs of power and as soon as they touched the Orc's they melted away into nothingness*
-
Meltharius thrust his blade through an orc. This seemed easy, too easy...Meltharius lunged at another when he felt a blow land on the back of his head, he was quite far away from the others. He fell to his knees and was struck again on the head. He blacked out. In the chaos of the battle the others didn't noticed a figure being dragged away by 2 robed men.
-
*Nienna carried on fighting with all her strength, she kept glancing around for any sign of Meltharius but she couldn't see him. She tried to tell herself he was just behind her busy fighting and she was just being foolish but deep down she knew something was wrong*
*Eleclya finished off the rest of the Orc's with Cassandra and a sigh of relief came from her* "Now we can go help the others" *She said with a slight smile. She began to run back towards the camp where the others were with her sword held out in front of her and her eyes still white*
-
Legolas was pleased to see Eleclya and Nienna were ok, he pulled his sword out of the ors neck then turned around and slained to more. Then he climbed a tree and began to shoot arrows at the orcs as they came from different angles, they fell to the ground like leaves off a tree in autume.
"ASCA ASCA!!" (hurry hurry in elvish) He shouted to the others are more began to arrive, but this time with bigger weapons attached to them.
-
cassandra followed, her eyes flashed a brilliant blinding light then returned to green
-
Legolas continued to fight arrows from the top of the tree, he couldn't see Metharius but this didnt bother him as he thought he was else where fighting and he had bigger things to worry about. Orcs stood now far from the tree and began to fight tree trunks that were on fire from giant cattapolts, they were aiming for the tree but luckly it missed.
-
cassandra and eleclya ran to the campsite to see it swarming with orcs, "looks like we're the pest control!" she said leaping into the air and forming a huge white/blue electrical orb in her hands and throwing it at the orcs
-
Legolas jumped down from the tree and fort with the others. He hadn't seen both of them fight like this before, and he ws amazed.
-
Meltharius was dragged lifelessly from the field of battle by his two assailents.
-
Legolas jumped down from the tree and fort with the others. He hadn't seen both of them fight like this before, and he ws amazed.
(lol, thank you! ;D)
cassandra conjured a ferocious fire around an orc blade and thrust it through a line of orcs
-
*Eleclya looked around slightly as she drove her sword into one of the Orc's* "Where's Meltharius?!" *She shouted towards Nienna as she carried on fighting*
*Nienna stopped fighting for a brief moment and looked around* "I don't know...Last time I saw him he was fighting" *She said feeling the threat of worry growing up inside her chest*
*Eleclya feared the worst, she knew what she had to do. She held her hand out and pointed it in the direction of the Orc's, a large, blinding white beam shot out from her palm and crashed into them. It killed them instantly, knocking them to the floor. She looked around, Orc's had stopped coming through the bushes and there were only a few groups of them left*
-
"go find meltharius, we'll finish these off," said cassandra, she nodded to legolas when she said 'we'. she stood between eleclya & nienna and the orcs, she thrust her hand in the air and lights and beams like fireworks shot out and up and then down upon the orcs
-
"Yes go now please" he shoued to the and charged towards the orcs with his blades drawn.
-
name; Arwen
race:elf
arwen appears as if by elf magic wishing to help
-
(o....k then ??? ::))
cassandra ushered them on then leapt into the air, twisting and slicing with her sword, killing lots of orcs
-
Legolas swiped and threw his sowrd into the orcs and slowly him and Cassondra had killed them all.
Legolas walked over to her and patted her on the back.
"Your some fighter" he said and smiled at her, He then noticed someone else walking towards them it was Arwen.
"Arwen?" he muttered
-
"you too," laughed cassandra, she looked up at the oncoming elf
-
*Eleclya and Nienna had already disappeared into the trees in search of Meltharius* "Keep quiet and cautious. I fear something or someone has taken Meltharius, but who or what, I don't know" *Eleclya said in a whisper* "If I have to use my powers there's no telling whether I might hit you accidentally, so you take Meltharius and run"
-
"Thanks" legolas laughed and looked at cassondra, then he felt himself blushing What are you doing? he thought to himself and looked away.
-
(Woah, this RP is seriously dead! :(...I better bring it back to life ::))
*Eleclya and Nienna made their way through the trees, both had their swords drawn* "How are we supposed to know where Meltharius is?" *Nienna asked in a whisper*
"I can sense where he is...We're close" *Eleclya said in a hushed voice*
(okies, me is going away tomorrow, will be back on wednesday so I should be able to get online hopefully...Don't get me lost! ::))
-
The two men dragged Meltharius into a cave concealed behind some bushes and threw him against the rule. "So why does the master want this guy anyway?" One of the men said. "Who cares? We're getting well payed for this" the other replied.
-
what is this all about and can i be in?!ŋ!
-
Legolas had managed to stop himself from blushing and turned back to Cassondra.
"So what brings you heard Arwen?" Legolas asked and hoped Cassondra did't see what he did.
I'v never done that before when Cassondra has touched me Legolas thought to himself.
-
cassandra watched legolas for a moment and turned back to arwen, "explain on the way, we've got to catch up with nienna and eleclya and we still don't know where meltharius is!" said cassandra urgently
-
Legolas jumped on the back of cassondras horse and held out his hand to help cassondra up.
-
cassandra took it and leapt up, sh looked back at arwen, "you coming?" she asked
-
They rode fast towards where Nienna and Eleclya where ment to be, Closely followed by Arwen.
"Thanks" he told Cassondra "For being there" he thought she needed to know this as he was very greatfull for all that she did for him. She stuck by him in battle, Helped him whe he was hurt and most of all was his friend.
-
cassandra smiled, "it was my pleasure," she said as she squeezed his hand then gave him a peck on the cheek before jumping off and looking around, "where ar they!?"
-
Legolas smiled and sat on her horse, he was slightly shocked at what she had just done. He snapped out of it and jumped down from his horse after cassondra and Arwen.
-
cassandra looked around, she then closed her eyes and a breeze whipped at her hair and lifted her gently into the air, she seemed to be listening to it, she then slowly drifted to the ground, "they've gone through the trees." she said
-
Legolas quietly but swifty followed there tracks towards them
-
*Eleclya sensed someone was coming, she quickly grabbed Nienna and pulled her into some bushes so they were hidden* "Someones coming" *She whispered looking around cautiously as they crouched down behind a group of bushes*
(Wait for Meltharius now :))
-
"I heard something" One of the two men said, peering out of the cave. "Don't be so god darn paranoid, It's probably rats" the other's voice came from inside the cave. "I'm not so sure..." the first man trailed off.
-
Legolas saw Nienna and whispered loadly
"Psssst! Its me" and croushed along the ground towards them,
"Where's Metharuis?" she asked frowning at them as if to say whats he gone and done now.
-
cassandra had followed legolas, she smiled when she saw her companions but one was missing! her smile faded as she realised and was now full of concern
-
"I don't know" *Nienna said, she was really worried, Meltharius was gone and the only person who had the faintest idea where he was was Eleclya and she wasn't saying much right now. She sighed* "I really hope he's ok" *She said*
"He's not far, but I feel something is guarding him. Their not far off now, but whatever or whoever it is be prepared" *Eleclya said* "I cannot tell whether he is concious or not right now, but I know he's still alive"
-
"which way though?" asked cassandra eagerly, eleclya was being too vague and she wanted to help meltharius now!
-
"Follow me, but stay quiet and keep your swords drawn" *Eleclya said as she cautiously got to her feet. She started to walk slowly deeper into the forest, her eyes darted around her surroundings as she made her way through the trees which were so close together that it was almost pitch black in the small forest*
-
cassandra followed, eyes keen and ears alert, keeping a tight grip on her sword
-
Legolas stopped and consontrated. He began muttering something in elvish, untill there footsteps could no longer be heard. Legolas walked beside Cassondra.
"Thought it might help" he mutters more softly then a whisper.
-
*They went on silently for quite a while then faint voices could be heard through the trees. Eleclya held her hand out signalling for them all to stop, then she peered cautiously through the bushes. She could see two figures, they seemed to be guarding something* "I reckon they have Meltharius" *She said in a very faint whisper pointing towards them* "It is not usual to see any being in here, whether it be man, Elf, Dwarve or Hobbit. These woods are quite often deserted, that is why we rested here. And they overly suspicious to me"
-
"then let me take the chance," whispered cassandra. if they were suspicious of her than she may be able to help, all she needed to know was what to do
-
"No you Can't" he whispered to her and took her hand to stop her from going....
"You can't go you might get hurt....If anyoen goes out of us four it should be me" Legolas told them, It shouldbe him, He didn't mind gettinghurt or anything as he cared so dearly for his friends he couldn't bare it...
"Please" he said looking into Cassondras eyes then the others.
-
"i have just as much right as you to go," said cassandra, she then took his hand, "i know it's dangerous but thats why i should go because of my powers." she said gently
-
Legolas fell silent again, muttering elvish under his breathe with closed eyes a bright light formed arounf Cassondra then it faded.
"This will help protect you" he smiled and stumbled sligtly as it drained him.
-
cassandra squeesed his hand and then turned to eleclya, "tell me what i need to do." she said
-
"Distract them while I go see if I can get in...Just be careful, I know you have the power to hold them off. Once I have Meltharius I'll come and help you" *Eleclya said then she turned to Nienna and Legolas* "You two stay here, help Cassandra if needed, but when I have Meltharius take him and run" *She said turning back to face Cassandra* "You ready?"
-
"yup," said cassandra taking a deep breath, she had no idea what to do but would give it her best shot, she walked out of the bush and the men were omediatly defensive, "it's ok, i don't bite," said cassandra walking up to them, "i kinda got lost and was hoping you could help. you seem really important so i guessed you could help me."
-
*As Cassandra took the guards attention, Eleclya snuck behind them, crouching slightly with a very quick and silent pace. She saw the opening to a cave and quickly walked into the darkness..*
-
the soldiers watched cassandra and didn't notice eleclya, one raised his eyerows to caution the other, "so your lost, eh? how'd you get here anyway? i mean your an elf and you alone escaped the dragons?!" the soldiers started to approch cassandra and she took a few steps back
"i told you the truth, i'm in no situation to lie," said cassandra trying to stay cool
-
*As Eleclya walked further into the cave darkness seemed to surround her, the light behind her had disapeared and she was left with no light. She checked behind her, she seemed to have turned a corner, they wouldn't be able to see her now. She chanted some words in elvish and a bright white orb of light appeared in her palm. She looked around for any sign of Meltharius, then in the corner a figure laid motionless. She quickly ran over to the figure and knelt beside it, it was Meltharius. Eleclya shook him gently* "Meltharius?" *She said half whispering*
-
Legolas watched from thehinding with Nienna, seeing the guards aprouch Cassondra he found it hard not to go up there and help his friend, But he knew he had to wait for Eleclya's sign.
-
the soldiers again looked from one to the other, "you seem pretty healthy, where have you been staying?" said one as the other half walked around cassandra
cassandra looked from one to another getting more and more worried, "you know, where i can!"
the guard behind her grabbed her arms constricting her and the other drew his sword, keeping it dangerously close, taunghting her
-
*Eleclya continued to shake Meltharius, there was no sign of him moving but he was still breathing* "Meltharius?!" *She whispered, her tone more urgent now. She knew the guards would be getting suspicious of Cassandra now. She whispered a few words in elvish, then after a few seconds her eyes turned a bright white, out of her palm came a white, healing glow. She placed her hand on Meltharius' chest and continued to whisper the same, ancient words. After a few minutes Eleclya took her hand away, the energy she had given him wasn't a lot, but she knew it was enough to make him concious and for him to be able to walk*
(Come on Meltharius post! I have you concious again ::))
-
Legolas was finding it harder and harder not to rush out and help her. The anger growing inside him, but no sign of Eleclays or Metharius.
-
Meltharius let out a soft groan and opened his eyes. He looked up at everybody and laughed. "Why is it always me who ends up unconcious, injured or dead?" he asked comically.
-
cassandra struggled, trying to get away from the blade, she crouched slightly and then leaped over the guard holding her, twisting him to the ground, she kicked the soldier with the blade so he threw it up into the air, she quickly caught it, pointing it at the soldiers chest. the other soldier was getting up!.....
-
*Eleclya had no time for laughing, she dragged him up and helped him keep stable* "We must get out of here" *She said very seriously, Cassandra is distracting the guards. Now, once we get outside, Legolas and Nienna will be waiting to take you to a safer place. Meanwhile, me and Cassandra will hold the guards at bay" *She said, then they began to walk towards the exit of the cave.
Soon they were outside and Eleclya could see Cassandra was in trouble, she signalled over to Legolas and Nienna and went to go help*
*Nienna saw Eleclya and Meltharius emerge out of the cave and quickly ran over to Meltharius* "Come on, we need to get out of here"
-
"Yes of course" Meltharius mumbled. "Where is my sword?" he asked looking around. "Damn, I must of dropped it...Anyone got a spare?"
-
cassandra was grabbed from behind and she dropped the sword, as she struggled for breath she chanted, her eyes turning white. the soldiers seemed to hover in mid air and then were thrown against the cave wall, knocking them out
-
"There is no time for that now, come on!" *Nienna said urgently half dragging him away*
*Eleclya rushed over to Cassandra* "We'll tie them up while their unconious, I will give them enough energy to regain conciousness then we must question them" *She said firmly*
(Who's gonna play the guardy people? :-\)
-
(you ;D)
cassandra nodded, she fiddelled with ropes but took a step back, feeling weary
-
Meltharius shrugged and looked around. He noticed a dagger lying on the floor and scooped it up. It was old and rusty but it was better than nothing.
-
Legolas ran over to Meharus with Neinna and grabbed his arm.
"Quickly we must go!" he shouted to him, taking quick glace at the others the ran off toward sthe forest with Metharius and Nienna.
"They will be ok...." he thought to himself knowing when ever he left someone it normaly came to never seeing them again.
-
(you ;D)
(Why me?! ::)...O ok, I will then)
*Seeing the ropes were tied Eleclya knelt down by one of the guards. They only needed one awake to answer them. She placed her palm on the guard's chest and chanted in elvish words, a bright, white glow appeared from under her palm and the guard began to stir. Eleclya took out a small dagger she had in her belt that was wrapped round her waist. She put it to the guard's neck firmly* "What did you want with Meltharius?" *She asked*
*The Guard scowled* "How would I know? All I know is that if I brought him back to my master alive I would be highly paid" *He said smirking slightly*
*Nienna, Legolas and Meltharius ran through the forest back to where they first made camp* "Legolas, get the horses ready" *She said and then she turned to Meltharius, she wanted to make sure he was ok but there was no time. She gathered up all their stuff ready to leave*
-
cassandra looked at the guard in the eye, "whos your boss? tell us before we hurt you!" she said menacingly, a red orb gloing in her hand
-
*The Guard chuckled evilly* "Kill me! I won't reveal my boss's secrets" *He said the smirk still neatly placed on his lips*
*Eleclya put more pressure on the blade that was pressed up against the Guard's neck, it now started drawing blood. The Guard winced slightly in pain* "Tell us now! Or else I will be forced to cause you as much pain possible!" *Eleclya said threateningly*
*The Guard remained quiet, but Eleclya continued to push the blade into his throat, he was now almost unable to breath*
"So your still not telling us?" *Eleclya said quite calmly* "Fine, you want it this way, then you can have it" *She said and she with-drawed the dagger and gave the Guard a chance to catch his breath. She then raised the blade and put it to his cheek, she dug it in deep and started to slice his skin away*
(mwhahaha! 8))
*The Guard winced again, the pain was unbearable* "I'll tell you!" *He blurted out. Eleclya smiled as she took the blade away again to let him talk* "Lord Rhinvan sent me. He know's your plans, he knew capturing one of your companions would delay you on your journey. He know's your every move" *He said smirking once again*
*Eleclya scowled* "Rhinvan" *She said in disgust* "Fine! Go and tell Rhinvan that he won't stop us, and next time he sends measly little servants for us we'll kill them! He should come himself if he wants a job done properly" *She said starting to un-do the ropes that held the Guard prisoner* "Now go!" *And with that the guard ran off for his life. Eleclya looked down at the other guard that was still unconcious* "Kill him" *She said to Cassandra*
(Sworry if that's a bit long...Btw this Rhinvan dude is gonna be this evil lord who has this all mighty powerful staff which can control the Dragon's. At first the Dragon's were free and killing at their own will, now he's getting them to destroy the kingdom's a Men...Tis a random thing I came up with ::))
-
cassandra took a deep breath and gulped, she drew her blade and cleaning killed him, she felt slightly queasy afterwards, she had killed many in battle before but the adrenaline had always been running and now she felt guilty
"what are we going to so now?" she asked eleclya
-
"Find the others, we need to get to Gondor as soon as possible. We are at least 3 days away as the horse gallops, so the sooner we set off the better" *Eleclya said to Cassandra, she noticed the guilt in her expression* "I'm sorry, I shouldn't of made you kill that man, but if we just let him go he would of followed us and tried to kill us" *She said, then she sheathed her small dagger in her belt*
-
"i know, it's ok, we had to, i had to," she said and then got to her feet, "come on, we better find them, i can sence them this way," she said leading eleclya through the trees
-
Legolas take shold of the horse's rains and walks them over to Nienna.
"What about the others?" he says looking back over to where they had came from,
"I'm not leaving them here...Iv abandoned my friends too many times and the worst always comes out of it" He looks down at his feet as he pushes the dirt around with them.
-
"Let me stay...I'll delay them for as long as I can" Meltharius said sternly. "Just get me a sword and I'll fight to the death"
-
"No" he told Metharius "They wanted you for something and I'm not prepaired to lose you again" he said to him stubbonly looking back to Neinna.
"I'm going to go back for the others...make sure they are ok, you go ahead with Metharius like Eleclya and Cassondra wanted you too"
He smiled and hugged her before running make, sword draw towards where he had been before.
-
"Legolas wait! I'm going with you" Meltharius shouted and then ran after Legolas.
-
cassandra heard voices, (not just in her head, joking) "they're coming!" she said to eleclya
-
"Why are you always this stubbon?" he asked him, he stopped and turned around to face him as he said this,
"You always have and you always wil be" he frowned and continused to run towards Eleclya's and Cassondra.
He ran around the corner and stopped Cassondra, A smile spread across his face and he wrapped his arms around her "Your ok" he said happyly then turned to Eleclyas and did the same.
-
"Will someone please give me a sword...." Meltharius frowned. :P
-
cassandra unsheathed a beautifully crafted sword and passed it to him with a smile, "we're fine," she grinned, "what about you?" she nodded to meltharius
-
(Thanks for leaving Nienna behind ::). I would of posted last night but I was at my friends house and she wouldn't let me :-X)
*Nienna followed on behind Meltharius and Legolas..*
(Not much else for me to do is there? ::))
*Eleclya smiled to see her friends return and that they were all ok* "We've sent back one of the Guards, we got a little but out of him, but not enough. Rhinvan has managed to get his hands on a weapon, I've never heard of it but it controls every dragon in Middle Earth. He is using it to destroy the world of Men. We must get to Gondor as soon as we can. We are 3 days ride away" *She said. She sent a soft but loud whistle threw the air and the horses they had used before came trotting through the trees* "We must set off now, there is no telling what we will find when we get to Gondor. Rohan has already fallen, the people of Rohan who have survived have fled to Gondor. It is likely they are dead" *She said with concern in her voice, she then walked over to her horse and mounted while she waited for the others*
-
Meltharius stayed silent for a moment. "I have heard of this weapon before....It was forged milenia ago by the elves to act as a defense means againts the rampaging dragons of the time. I know not why Rhinvan wanted me as a prisoner but it might be something to do with the darkness that lies in me. Whatever happens Malvorías must not be freed again, he could destroy us all"
-
*Eleclya nodded* "Whatever you do you must try to keep Malvorías under control. We need you in this fight" *She said*
*Nienna took the reins of her horse and mounted, she turned to Meltharius* "You can ride with me again, if anything happens I'll be here" *She said with a slight smiled on her face*
-
"Of course Nienna, I will be by your side if ever you need me to" Meltharius said, nodding his head. He turned to Eleclya "Tell me all you know of Rhinvan"
-
"For as long as I remember Rhinvan has dwelt alone in the mountains, haunted by his shadow and hidden by the darkness he barely survived. The Orc's found him while the forces of darkness gathered for the battle of the ring, they took him to Mordor and after Sauron was no more he found this weapon. Now, how it got to Mordor remains a mystery, but we must destroy it fast, if we delay much more the men left will be lost" *Eleclya explained*
-
Legolas nodded and climbs onto the back of Cassondra's horse after she had got on there. Again he sat close behind her and placed his hands around her waist asnot to fall off.
"I'm glad your ok" he told her. "Thanks again" he said to her again for letting him ride with her.
-
cassandra smiled, "i'm glad everyone's ok, for now anyway." she said with a slight sigh
-
"We're not ok yet, We need to defeat Rhinvan first. After that, than maybe...Just maybe we can have peace for a little while" Meltharius said.
-
Legolas shook his head at that name....Flash backs from his dream were coming back....The burnign village....the screaming...the tall dark figer standing over him..Legolas face was turning pale and the room was spinning slightly. Something wasn't right.
-
"What's wrong?" Meltharius asked Legolas.
-
Legolas sat there in silents it replaying in his head before he snaped out of it.
"W-what?" he asked and shook slightly "That name..." he told him but it was hard to think of nothing else. He had only told Cassondra about the dream once before...he didnt want to worry anyone about it.
-
cassandra watched him anxiously, she was scared for him, she squeesed his hand and whispered, "it's going to be ok, i won't let that happen,"
-
Meltharius narrowed his eyes. "You 4 go on to Gondor, I have something I need to attend to, I'll meet up with you in a few days" he said. He sheathed his sword and looked around as if looking for something. Then he started to walk eastward and looked down from the top of a small cliff. He spotted something and jumped off. A few minutes later he appeared again, mounted on a huge stallion.
-
*Nienna watched Meltharius, she didn't want to let him go alone, but she knew she had to. Something was telling her that he would be ok. She had her task to complete and she wasn't going to stop now she had got this far*
*Eleclya also watched Meltharius for a moment then her gaze switched the road ahead* "Come, we must go now, no more delay's or we shall be too late" *She said and she gave her horse a firm kick and it set off at a gallop*
-
cassandra kicked her horse into gear and let it find a path and then put it into a trot
-
"Farewell" Meltharius said briefly before he Galloped off in a easterly direction.
-
Legolas smiled weakly to Cassondra and squezzed her hand back gentaly. His head was full if thoughts as they rode on after saying Farewell to Methrius and headed off to do there duty.
-
cassandra kicked her horse into a fast trot
-
*Nienna nudged her horse on faster so she caught up to Eleclya that was leading them at the front* "Eleclya, do you have any idea why Meltharius left or where he's gone?" *She asked with a concerned tone to her voice*
*Eleclya sighed* "No, I don't. He does these things, goes off without giving any idea where he's gone or why. I wouldn't worry though, he's a good fighter and if he does get into trouble I'll know" *She said smiling slightly*
-
cassandra patted her horse, the noble thing was so loyal, she was now sick of being depressed, they'd all been through so much, she kicked her horse into a gallop and laughed as the horse sprang out infront gracefully with great energy, "hold on legolas," she laughed
-
"Will do" he laughed and held onto her waist so not to fall off.
-
(okies, I'm gonna bring this back to life and skip forwards to Gondor ::) :P)
*Their ride was long and hard, the group would stop every night or so to rest but spent as much time as possibly travelling. They needed to reach Gondor before it was too late
After a few days they entered the realm of Gondor where they only had to travell a few leagues until they reached Minas Tirith, the great white city* "We're nearly there" *Eleclya shouted back to the others against the wind. Soon, the city was in sight, but didn't look very hopeful, half of it was already in ruins but thankfully the dragons weren't there at that present time*
*Nienna picked up her pace slightly as she looked over Minas Tirith, indeed the place did bring back sad memories but it had changed so much. It was no longer the beautiful white city she knew, it was a complete wreck*
-
cassandra gasped as she looked over the ruin of the great city, "what has happened here?" she said, steering her horse to stand by eleclya's
-
*Eleclya sighed* "Dragons" *She muttered* "Looks like they've had a bad attack, but I'm aware there are still some alive. We should go check it out" *She said as she kicked her horse forward into a canter*
-
cassandra steered her horse after her, "hold on legolas," she said giving a weak smile
-
*Eleclya galloped over to what once was the gates of Minas Tirith, but now one of them was torn down and the other barely still attached. She sighed sadly as she walked through them, her horse placing it's feet down carefully so he didn't slip on the rubble. A watch man from the tower, which was barely still standing itself called out to them* "Who goes there?!" *He shouted* "I am Eleclya, we have come to help" *She shouted back up to the watchman. The man came down to see Eleclya, Cassandra, Legolas and Nienna. He seemed to recognise Eleclya* "Faramir?" *Eleclya muttered* "Yes, it is I, Faramir" *He said. Although, he didn't look like his usual self, he had many wounds and now many scars. He face had aged a lot and his voice had changed. His hands were stained with his own dry blood and his sword hung down from his belt. Eleclya dis-mounted her horse and approached Faramir* "What has happened here?" *She asked* "Dragons" *Muttered Faramir* "3 attacks we have had now, we're expecting the next at Dawn tomorrow. And it will finish the people of Gondor and this city off" *He said sighing* "Aragorn is not himself anymore.."
*Nienna walked forward on her horse and looked down at Faramir* "He wasn't himself before this all happened. He wasn't himself when the war between Rohan and Gondor took place" *She said*
*Eleclya glanced at Nienna briefly, but then looked down at Faramir* "And what of Rohan now?" *She asked. Faramir looked down, sorrow filled his face* "Edoras has fallen and Rohan is no more, nor it's people" *He uttered sadly*
-
cassandra dismounted from her horse, "you will not fight this last fight alone, i for one will either share the victory or defeat,"
-
*Faramir put on a very weak smile and nodded* "Thankyou Mi'Lady, but the chances of victory are very slim. Many men, including myself are injured and a lot are dead. Yet king Aragorn sits on his throne like nothing is happening while he watches his kingdom fall around him" *He sighed*
"Would you be able to take us to king Aragorn, Faramir? I wish to speak with him" *Eleclya asked*
"If you wish, Mi'Lady, though I do warn you of his arrogance. Follow me" *He said, and he began to lead them through the masses of rubble towards what was left of the streets that lead up to the king*
-
Legolas slowly followed them, he had not said a word since they got there. Walking to beside Faramir "Goodday...I am legolas Prince of Mirkwood" he smiled and held out his hand"I am sorry to hear of Lord Aragorn but from what I remember he was an Honest,Loyal man" he sighed and looked dissapointed.
-
(may i play aragorn until Meltharius returns?...and return he will 8))
-
(yey! Course ya can :P. He's not the Aragorn we know though, he's changed, he's stubborn, arrogant and selfish...You get the idea ::) :P)
*Faramir lead them up to the high tower. The white tree of Gondor was still standing, though it had no guard as many of Gondors men were inside recovering or were already dead. He lead them through the great doors, and in front of them King Aragorn sat on his throne with a smug look on his face*
*Nienna followed silently with her head down, she tried to avoid eye contact with him, hoping he wouldn't remember the battle between elves and men*
(This is your cue Chris! :P)
-
"Elves...What business do you have in Gondor? Speak quickly, I do not have time for long coversation!" Aragorn demanded.
-
"we're here to help and save whats left of this city," said cassandra, she glanced at eleclya waiting for her big introducing speech ::)
-
*Eleclya stepped forward and bowed her head slightly* "My Lord" *She started as she looked at Aragorn with slight sorrow in her eyes* "I have seen the destruction these Dragons have caused, the elves that stand in front of you now and one other are the only elves that are left in Middle Earth. Our race has almost been wiped out and the same could happen with men, unless we prevent it. Gondor is already in ruins, your men are injured, most are dead. There are few left to fight this last war which will determine what is to happen to us. We all offer you our strength and our lives to protect the last alliance of men and elves"
-
Aragorn got his feet and looked at the elf woman for a moment. "The Alliance of Men and Elves!?... The alliance is dead! All hope is lost, if the elves had not abandoned us in the first place we could have defeated this threat. Go now! Get out of my sight, flee these lands like the rest of your pathetic race!" He boomed angrily.
-
*Eleclya narrowed her eyes, trying to stay calm* "Aragorn, your country and men are dying! You have to do something about it, your their king, who else will they follow if not you?" *She asked* "I will not leave this room, or city before I get through to you! You have changed, Aragorn. You are not the man you used to be, you are not the man who raised his sword against evil and cast it down. You are not the man who saved Gondor back in the war of the ring. You don't even know who you are anymore"
-
cassandra bit her lip as she stood by nienna and legolas, she glanced at them both, wondering what would happen
-
Something came over Legolas his face turned angry and he began to run at Aragorn shouting "You Arragent, shelfish Good for nothing King! You used to be Trustworth and Loyal, but NOW I would trust you with my HORSE!!" he yelled "You've changed Aragorn...You Discust me!" he still tryed to get up to him.
-
cassandra ran after him and pulled him back gently on the arm, "legolas, don't," she pleaded
-
Aragorn drew his sword and held it to Legolas' neck. "And you my friend are pathetic" Aragorn hissed and with that he kicked Legolas backwards savagely. "Remove them and do not let them back into my sight!" Aragorn barked at his men. His soldiers moved quickly and removed the others from the room.
-
cassandra's eye turned white and she threw back her arm and the guard nearest her went flying back, "i can leave on my own!" she said, the floor trembling when she spoke
-
*Eleclya struggled against the mens grasp, she managed to wriggle out and stormed forward* "Aragorn! You can't do this! Dragons will be here by sun down, for the good of your men please let us fight for you!" *She pleaded before the guards came after her again*
*Faramir strode forward* "Aragorn, my Lord, please listen to them. They do not want to cause any damage, they just want to help" *He explained*
(Heh, Chris, you're playing a great Aragorn! ;) :P)
-
"Faramir, as your king I'm ordering you to remove these people! Let us Gondorians deal with Gondorian matters!" Aragorn ordered.
-
"Yes..all we wish to do is help!" he calmed down slightly "I pity you...You were an Honourable man and I only wish you can see sence...Don't you remember how you used to be?" he gazed up at him standing close to Cassondra. "What Eleclya says is true"
(Oh Please Say legolas and Aragorn knew eachotehr from the war of the ring in this rp?? lol)
-
(Yesh, yesh, they do :P)
*Faramir glanced from Cassandra to Legolas to Eleclya then to Aragorn with a look of woe on his face. He stood in silence for a moment, was he to obey his king or go against everything he's believed in and his own city? He glanced one more time at Eleclya, a look was in her eyes that pleaded for him to refuse. He sighed and looked up to Aragorn* "My Lord, they only wish to help, just let them. They are giving their own lives to save Gondor"
-
"Faramir! You are a servant of Gondor and are bound to me until I see fit to release you from my service. May I remind you that the penalty for disobeying a direct order from your king is death!" Aragorn said sternly.
-
*Faramir fell silent, not looking at anyone but to the stone floor. Those words of Aragorns pierced his ears. He glanced at the others then at Aragorn* "V-Very well, my Lord" *He muttered. He then walked up to Eleclya and grabbed her arm to attempt to pull her back* "Where do you want me to put them my Lord?"
-
*cassandra rolled her eyes, if they really knew what they were getting into, her and the others were putting their lives on the line and aragorn couldn't accept anything! she pitied him from the man he used to be, she glanced at legolas and gave a weak sarcastic smile*
-
."You are to to escort them to outside the city walls. Do not admit them into Minas-Tirith again, if they are not out of bow shot within 20 minutes, shoot them" Aragorn commanded.
-
*Faramir paused, he didn't want to do this, he was being completely selfish, saving his life over his kingdoms. He felt ashamed with himself, but followed Aragorns orders anyway. He began to pull Eleclya out of the room*
*Eleclya stopped, dis-allowing Faramir to pull her from the room* "Faramir, you know he speaks of madness, you know he is no longer himself and a foolish king, but yet you still follow his orders" *She whispered to him*
"Eleclya, you do not understand, you cannot understand. Now, please, let me do this the easy way" *Faramir said*
"No" *Eleclya muttered and she pulled her arm away from Faramir and strode up to Aragorn once again* "I will not leave this city until you listen to me, Aragorn!" *She said raising her voice, her eyes burning with anger. She was never patient and she didn't want to leave it too long for the Dragons to attack* "We are offering you our lives, if you let the Dragons tear down this city then they won't stop until the whole of Middle-Earth is in flames. A powerful and evil man bears a weapon, a weapon which can betray minds and control Dragons. I fear it has cast it's spell on you, you can't give into it! This man must be stopped, he wants Middle-Earths people to drown in fire so he can rule it with his Dragons and Orc's. I am pleading to you now, Aragorn, stand up to yourself, cast down this spell which has been put upon you. You are not weak"
(Heh, thought I'd add that little twist that the man (can't remember his name, will have to check :8o) that has the weapon to control Dragons can also control men. May of also said that before but I can't remember :wacko:)
-
"No...I am not weak. How dare you think that I could be controlled so easily! Guards! Remove them now! I am king of Gondor, now remove these traitors!" Aragorn screamed.
-
"TRAILTORS?!!" Legolas yelled "These Dragons are going to come! They will destory this Pathetic excuse for a kingdom and will Kill you! So don't come crying to us when It happens!" Legolas shouted at him, broke free from the Guards "I don't need secorting out!" he yelled as he threw the main doors open and rans towards the front doors enraged once again.
-
(if Aragorn is dead he cant exactly cry can he... ::) :P)
-
(Shhh! hes confuesed cos hes shouting lol!)
-
*Nienna glanced at Legolas as he went out then she glanced back at Aragorn, shoving the guard that was holding her off her arm* "Aragorn, can't you see what you're doing?! If it wasn't for you waging war on Rohan then maybe we wouldn't be in a situation where there's hardly any men left!" *She shouted at him*
"It's all right, Nienna, we'll do as he wishes" *Eleclya said calmly glancing at Aragorn. However, she had a plan. She walked back to Faramir, facing him for a moment* "Meet me behind the gates as soon as possible" *She said telepathically. She then walked out of the great hall after Legolas*
*Nienna followed with Cassandra, not looking back at Aragorn*
-
(thanks 4 moving my char megz1 ::))
cassandra sighed, she followed in the direction legolas had gone and then saw him, "he isn't something to get so mad over, he isn't worth the energy!" she said angrily, her hand was clenched as a fist and her hair flailed with power and then settled as she took a breath
-
"I HOPE THE DRAGONS COME, I HOPE THEY RIP HIM LIM FROM LIM" he shouted angryly not looking at Cassondra, he didn't mean to be this angry or Upset but he couldn't see how one of his closest friends someone he'd protect with his life had changed so much.
"I...I don't understand" he muttered quietly his voice quivering.
-
cassandra put her hand on his shoulder, "it's...it will be ok legolas, i promise you," said cassandra comfortingly
-
*Eleclya walked up to Legolas and Cassandra* "It isn't over yet" *She muttered* "Come on, we are to meet Faramir down outside the walls soon, then we'll decide what is to happen to us and Gondor" *She said as she began to make her way down the steps towards the bottom*
*Nienna glanced at Legolas* "Legolas, that isn't Aragorn in there, it's some sort of magical force that has taken over him. That is not your friend, it is evil that has possessed a good mans body"
-
"They suspect all is not right" a man who has been standing in the shadows said to Aragorn.
"I'm aware of that Malvorías! Now crawl back into what ever hole you came from" Aragorn snarled at the man in the shadows.
"Very well. I shall report back to our common master" the shadowed man said. He pulled his hood over his face and left the Keep.
-
Legolas calm his self down and looked at Nienna and nodded before facing cassondra "Thanks" he smiled and follow after Eleclya.
-
cassandra followed the rest, she couldn't help but suspect that aragorn wouldn't let there meeting with faramir go ahead, she wouldn't of been surprised if he had spies. cassandra couldn't help but feel hopeless although she kept thinking to herself she shouldn't give up hope even if death was inebitable
-
*Faramir had already disappeared out of the throne room. He took a secret back way down Minas Tirith, that was only known by the Rangers. He made his was quietly, glancing behind him every so often to check if anyone was following him*
*Eleclya, Cassandra, Legolas and Nienna made their way down to the gates, they went out to where they left their horses and slipped around the wall so they could not be seen from above. Eleclya glanced at the others, then saw a figure come down from a long passage of steps from their right. She looked over and saw it was Faramir*
-
Legolas nodded at Faramir "Why do you take all that from him?" he asked sounding concerned.
-
*Faramir sighed* "He's still my king, no matter how he acts, and, at this dire time, Gondor deserves my service" *He said*
*Eleclya looked around them, making sure no one else was around* "You came alone right? No one followed you?" *She asked*
*Faramir shook his head* "No, not that I know of"
-
"are we to go behind aragorn's back?" asked cassandra speaking up after a while of being silent
-
At that precise moment Gondorian soldiers burst out from the surrounding houses. There were hundreds of them, all fully armed. They surrounded the small group. The captain stepped forward. "You have defied the King for the last time Faramir...I am arresting you for the crime of high treason. You are to be executed at dawn" he said holding up a piece of parchment signed by Aragorn. The captain rolled up the parchment and tucked it into his belt. At that moment one of the other men spoke up "What of the elves sir?" he asked. The captain thought for a moment..."Throw them into the prison, let them rot there for all I care" he responded.
-
*Eleclya scowled at the Gondorian soldiers and stood by Faramir* "You cannot do this!" *She said through clenched teeth, trying to keep back her anger* "Not before war! You need us and you need Faramir, don't be so foolish" *She said raising her voice slightly*
*Faramir put his hand on Eleclya's shoulder and pulled her back slightly* "It is all right Eleclya, I deserve my punishment" *He said, glancing at the Captain. As he saw it, he'd rather be dead than see The White city fall*
-
"You do not understand! You have seen Aragorn has changed for the bad!...If you kill Faramir or Get rid of us you will all die before the end!" he raised his voice to them not allowing the Guards to take hold of him yet.
-
"It is the order of the king. If I disobeyed my life to would be forfeit. I have a family, children. They survived the dragons fury. I will not sacrifice them now. Take them to the dungeons!" The captain ordered.
-
"if you really care for your family's lives then you will not send us to the dungeon, aragorn is obviously disturbed at the moment and will let the dragons destroy your life, family and home without a second thought, if you want to save them you will disobey your king and go against his orders, we will not let you die," said cassandra stepping forward, she knew he had a heart and was only trying to do his best to protect his family and serve his king by showing loyalty but this wasn't the way
-
The Captains face seemed torn, he couldn't decide...Eventually he spoke "No...I must obey my king, I'm sorry" the captain said. "Take them away" he said quietly. His men moved in and seized the group and lead them to the dungeons.
-
*Eleclya sighed sadly as she let the guards seize her. She gave the Captain one last glance, hoping that he'd change his mind, she could sense he was uncertain of his actions. Please let Meltharius get here soon she thought to herself as she was dragged off to the dugeons*
*They were all put in the damp dugeon Nienna and Cassandra had been before. Nienna walked up to the barred windows again and let her hands rest against the rusting metal as she stared out* "This place seems familiar" *She muttered*
-
"Don't worry...You'll get used. You're going to rot here" said a cold voice. A cloaked and hooded figure entered the dungeon and stared into the cell. "My master will be pleased...But tell me, where is the other elf?" the man asked.
-
*Nienna spun round to look at the dark hooded figure with narrowed eyes. She glanced at Eleclya then back at the figure* "He's away, on other business" *She said cautiously*
*Eleclya watched the figure, taking in every possible detail she could, although his hood hid his face. She somehow recognised the voice of this man, but she couldn't place who it belonged to*
-
Legolas lay in the corner of the dungeon wacthin the stranger "Who are you?" he asked "You sound like we've ment before" he frowned towards him.
-
"Answer my question! Where is the other elf! Where Is Meltharius!" the man shouted angrily.
-
*Eleclya scowled, she didn't like this man* "We've already said, he isn't here! He's away, and what does it matter to you" *She said starting to get angry with the stranger. Her patience wasn't good, especially in the situation they were in*
*Nienna watched the stranger, she wondered what he wanted with Meltharius*
-
Legolas stared at the stranger "Malvorías?" he asked.
-
"Very good Legolas. I thought it would take longer than that to work out who I am" said Malvorías, lowering his hood. "Now where is Meltharius? Don't make me hurt one of the women" he snarled.
-
*Eleclya's eyes narrowed and the hate on her face grew* "Malvorías" *She muttered with disgust* "If I even knew where Meltharius was, what would make you think I'd tell you?" *She said snidely*
-
Legolas eyes darted around the cell "If I knew were he was I wouldn't tell you....Scum" he yelled not even flinchingat what he could do. He knew that Marvolias was alot more stronger and Powerful then Himself but this wasn't bothing him.
-
Malvorías saw his chance and he took it. He lurched forward and grabbed Nienna, who was sitting near the bars, by the neck. He lifted her up off the ground, choking her. "Tell me where Meltharius is...Or she dies" he snarled. "And don't give me that rubbish about you don't know!"
-
"NOO!" Legolas yelled trying to get at Marvolias. "I mean it..He went North somewhere but he never told us wear!!" he yelled and quickly drewing his sword swinging it cutting the bottom on his leg.
-
*Nienna gasped for breath under Malvorías' grasp. She struggled, clinging and clutching at his hands for him to let go. She breathed heavily, trying desperately to free herself*
*Eleclya's eyes darted from Nienna, Malvorías and Legolas in panic* "We don't know!" *She shouted* "Let her go now!" *She demanded, feeling engery flow through her fingertips, trying not to get over angry*
-
Malvorías tightened his grip. "Are you sure?" he smirked. "You wouldn't want anything to happen to her..."
-
"We're sure! Now let her go!" *Eleclya demanded raising her voice* "Don't make me do something I don't want to do just yet" *She muttered half to herself*
*Nienna started to feel herself go weak, the tense pressure on her neck made her head become hot and almost numb. She gasped for breath, taking in little oxygen as she began to feel faint under Malvorías' grasp*
-
Legolas watched Nienna "Would we lie to you and Kill our own friend!!" he yelled and his voice echoed threw out the dungeons. "LET HER GO!"
-
Malvorías released his grip and threw Nienna back against the wall. "Don't you worry...That was but a taster. Tenna' tul're" he said and with that he left the dungeon.
-
*Nienna fell to the floor and she coughed, putting her hand to her throat and rubbing it as it felt incredibly sore after nearly being strangled by Malvorías. She gasped in air and sat up again, watching the door, expecting him to come striding back in again*
*Eleclya glanced at the door then Nienna, she hated seeing Nienna go through that, but she had to. If she were to act against Malvorías it was likely she may of killed everyone in the room. Her powers were not at her best control when she was angry or impatient and she was a mixture of both*
-
cassandra leant against the wall and slid down to sit on the floor, she sighed, "what d'you want to do now? play 20 questions? i spy? i'll begin, i spy with my little eye something beginning with w, and it's grey, guess what it's the wall because thats all there bloody is in a dungeon!"
-
Legolas laughed slightly then turned to Nienna "Are you alright?" he asked her looking concerned "I wish Methrius would hurry up...I don't wanna be stuck in here forever. However if he does turn up then Marvolias will find him....We can't win either way" he signed and looked at Cassondra "When I get outta here I swear someones gonna pay for all this!" Aragorn was the first name to run threw his head.
-
*Nienna didn't answer Legolas, nor did she look at the others. She just stared up at the window above her from the floor and sighed. She wished Meltharius was there too, even though Malvorías was there. She didn't even know where he was, or when he was to return to them, all she could do was hope he'd get there soon*
*Eleclya still gazed down at Nienna* "I'm sorry Nienna, you know I couldn't do anything" *She muttered weakly. Nienna merely glanced up at her, but soon looked back towards the window. Eleclya sighed sadly and sat in the far corner, opposite the others. Her mind was all over the place, thinking of how they were to get themselves out of this. They could easily escape and never come back, but that isn't what they set out to do. She glanced over at Legolas and Cassandra for a moment, Cassandra could use her powers to break bars on the window so we can escape. But what would we do afterwards? Faramir is likely to be already dead and how would we fight if they don't want us to she thought*
-
cassandra looked at nienna, her dear friend who had been put through so much, she sat down on the floor beside and put her arms round her as she leant her head on her shoulder trying to show her friendship and loyalty
-
Suddenly there was a shrill cry and a Gondorian soldier tumbled down the stairs. He hit the bottom with a clank and moments later a hooded figure darted down after him. The man checked to see if the soldier was alive and breathed a sigh of relief to find out he was. The figure turned to prisoners and lowered his hood. The newcomer was a man of about mid 20s with long dark hair and brown eyes. He smiled and held up the keys he had just removed from the guard. "I bid thee word from Meltharius. He says to tell you that you are to follow me. Do not worry, Faramir has already been freed by the other rangers in my party." the man said. He then proceeded to open the cells.
-
*Eleclya looked up at the stranger and got to her feet, narrowing her eyes slightly. She watched the man for a moment, not recognising him* "How do we know we can trust you?" *She questioned cautiously*
*Nienna smiled weakly at Cassandra, but looked up at the stranger as he came in. She glanced at Eleclya, she was always overly cautious. She got to her feet and surveyed the stranger* "Maybe we should trust him" *She said to Eleclya*
-
cassandra looked up at the new comer and got to her feet, she glanced at legolas and then surveyed the newcomer, she felt as if he was truthful, "i think we should trust him, anythings better than here,"
-
"Forgive me...I am Blaen. We rangers are no longer bound to the king so can aid you. We must stop this madness at the source. We must kill the one who has the weapon" he said.
-
"You mean Rhinvan?" *Eleclya half said, half questioned* "No one know's his where-abouts, and it doesn't seem like he'll appear any time soon. However, there is a way of finding him" *She said, there was a slight pause as she glanced at the others, she knew to listen to them and she sighed* "I suppose we better trust you, whether we like it or not"
-
Legolas got up and stood close to Cassondra "Good-day to you Blaen!" he nodded and looked around "But how are we going to her out of here without behind cort??" he asked looking confused
-
cassandra bit her lip, "i can see what i can do," she said meaning to use her powers, she glanced at nienna and then at blaen wondering if he had a key of some sort
-
"Whatever we decide to do we must be quick. HE is out there...You know of whom I speak. His malice and wickedness knows no bounds" Blaen said.
-
cassandra held out a hand to help nienna up, "i think we should go now and talk elsewhere," she said looking at everyone
-
*Eleclya nodded* "You're right, Cassandra" *She said, and then she turned towards Blaen* "Can we get out without being seen?" *She asked him*
*Nienna took Cassandra's hand and let her help her up, she stood silently. She glanced at Blaen, being able to see him more clearer now she had stood up, from what she had seen, he seemed trustworthy*
-
"Yes, it is possible. But it will not be easy. It was difficult getting in on my own but getting out with you 4 will be verging on the impossible." Blaen said forlornly.
-
"anythings possible," said cassandra, a glint to her eye, "i could try an illusion, so that the guards couldn't see us but i don't know if i could hold it for long or even if it would work but i can try,"
-
*Eleclya nodded* "I can help you there, between us we might be able to hold it long enough for us all to escape, but it would be risky" *She said*
-
"it's the best bet we've got," said cassandra, she looked up at blaen, "do you know where and when the guards patrol, if we're going to do this we'll only have one chance and it'll hve to work,"
-
"They change guards in about 5 minutes. That would be the best time to make a move" Blaen said to the others.
-
"right," said cassandra with a nod, "ok, once we get out of this room i think everyone should stay behind me and eleclya, when all seems right you should all run and not look back and we'll meet you somewhere," said cassandra knowing the risks of the plan
-
Legolas shook his head, he knew these words far too well and they never turned out for the good "No! I'm not loosing you..any of you! These words have cursed us too many times! I will not go threw with this!" he told them.
-
"if we don't there's no other way," said cassandra looking at legolas, "please legolas, it'll be harder if you don't help," she looked at eleclya, "are you ready?"
-
Legolas looked at Cassondras face "But...But.." he was torn "Ok Ill help But If you two do not come out soon after I promise I'm coming back in" he smiled at her then looked to Eleclya "Good-Luck..Both of you"
-
*Eleclya smiled at Legolas, then she glanced at Nienna, she still felt bad about earlier. She turned to Cassandra and nodded* "I'm ready when you are" *She said*
*Nienna sighed and stood beside Legolas, she placed a hand on his shoulder comfortingly* "They'll be fine, I know both of them have great powers" *She said smiling weakly*
-
(thats right, i'm not useless! :P if only nienna had her dog to comfort her :laugh:)
cassandra nodded and walked up to the door, glancing down the corrdor, she smiled at blaen, "we need you to lead the way out, ok, wait for the signal," she said stepping out into the corridor, staying close to the wall, she peered around the corner, it was time, she closed her eyes and concentrated
-
"Let's go" Blaen said and he ran up the stairs and into the night.
-
cassandra now had one problem, she couldn't hold the illusion and move at the same time, to her there was no question about it, eleclya would leave her to hold the illusion and cassandra would have to find another way out, she tired to speak telepathically to eleclya >go now eleclya, now's your chance<
-
*Eleclya glanced at Cassandra, is it best to leave her here she thought to herself. But then she nodded, she could see the strength and power in her eyes and she knew she could do it. She gave her a last weak smile* "Good luck" *She muttered and she began to lead the others on into the darkness*
-
Legolas walked along with the others, but stopped and looked at Cassondra "I can't leave you here" he muttered under his breathe, still stood in the same spot he had stopped in.
-
Blaen disappeared into the night... :ph34r:
-
cassandra opened her eyes which were now white, she could see legolas not moving, she forced herself to stand as she was crouched controlling the illusion, once she was stood she looked at legolas, (i'd be scared at that with the white eyes :P), >legolas go< she managed to say telepathically,she then dropped back to the floor into a crouch as the illusion lifted, a guard spotted her instantly,cassandra drew her swordand drove it through the man before running to legolas,"c'mon, we have little time," she said urgently as they pursued the others
-
*Eleclya lead the others out and up into the streets of Minas Tirith, quietly and unnoticed they crept away towards the gates. Blaen had seemed to have disappeared, as Eleclya caught no sign of him in the darkness, but they kept on going. They soon reached the gates of Minas Tirith and they ran urgently out. Once they were outside the walls, Eleclya lead them down past the side of Minas Tirith which lead to a passage, then a cave which they could hide out in till dawn*
-
cassandra came into the cave and slumped against the wall, taking a deep sigh, "for a moment i didn't think i'd make it, i guess it was a bit risky," she turned to eleclya, "what are we to do at dawn? they'll be searching for us,"
-
"They won't have time to search for us, Dragon's will be attacking. So we are to set out at dawn and help...Even if it does cause our deaths" *She sighed sighing sadly as she sat down on the ground, a look of thought on her face*
*Nienna sat alone by the cave opening, looking out over the peaks of the big boulders that covered the cave and left it in shadow. The sky was filled with glistening stars and no clouds were to be seen. She sighed, thinking of being back in the shire, where the stars were clearer and more beautiful*
-
A few moments later Blaen stumbled into the cave. "Sorry I'm late..." He panted. "Some guards saw me and I had to silence them" he said forlornly.
-
Legolas stood in the cave watching Cassondra "I'm glad I didn't have to run back in after you" he smiled and went over to her "Are you ok?" he asked her trying not to look her in the eye.
-
cassandra gave a weak smile, "i guess i'm as good as anyone about to face death, i guess i was a bit worried back there, i felt it was a bit risky but as long as everyone's fine i guess i am too,"
-
Legolas smiled back then for some reason he lent in and kissed her cheek. He had no idea why and he had never done it before, Looking at her relising what he had done he smiled awkardly "Thanks?" he said before quickly turning away to face Nienna "So everyone ok?"
-
cassandra blushed slightly unsure of what to doso instead she listened intently on nienna's reply, glancing at legolas occasionally :P
-
(LOL theres always been that little spark between Legolas and Cassondra! LOL BTW are Nienna and Metharius still going out or what!!?!?!)
Legolas stood there waiting for Niennas reply, unable to turn back to look at Cassondra "You say the dragons are coming? Maybe then will Aragorn relise what hes doing! Then he won't need a good kick up the-" he stopped when he saw the expresstion on her face "Sorry" he laughed slightly.
-
(I have no idea ::))
*Nienna glanced back at Legolas and Cassandra briefly before turning back to face the sky outside* "Maybe" *She muttered, not really wanting to talk to anyone at the moment in time*
-
Blaen looked around and then stepped torward Nienna. "I'm sorry I did not divulge this earlier but I have a message from Lord Stormbearer addressed to you" he said. Blaen slipped his hand into his tunic and pulled out a piece of folder parchment, he handed it to Nienna.
-
(What does it say? :8o ::))
*Nienna looked up at Blaen and took the letter and smiled weakly. She unfolded the parchment and began to read..*
-
(Whatever you want it to :P)
Blaen bowed and sat down on a rock in the cave. HE drew his sword and began to polish it.
-
Legolas glnaced at Nienna then Cassondra briftly before wondering outside and sitting just outside the cave, It was windy and cold but it was better then thet atmosphere coming from the cave. Gazing up at the stars as the wind blew his hair across his face he sighed.
-
cassandra followed legolas out, "good idea to get out of there, if they ask what we're doing just say keeping watch," she said with a grin sitting beside him
-
Legolas looked over at casosndra and smiled awkawdly "Sorry..." he told her, he hoped she knew what he was sorry about "Yes...anything better then sitting in there" he watched his hands fumble with the handle of his sword "I don't no what came over me in there? Maybe the fact of losing you?" he blurted out, he culdnt understand why he kept doing and saying things out of the blue, Legolas shook his head and tryed not to look at her.
-
cassandra smiled, "i didn't mind," she twiddled her thumbs, "i know the thought of losing someone close, i've lost a lot of people and seen a lot of people die but i couldn't face someone i really care about like you die,"
-
*Nienna folded the parchment back up as she smiled slightly(don't want it to be bad news! ::)). She then looked back up to the sky, then glanced down at Cassandra and Legolas, her smile growing. She leant into the wall, turning her gaze to the darkened cave. She wasn't too tired, but knew she would have to rest for the fight tomorrow*
-
Legolas looked over to Cassondra and smiled "I care about you to...all of you, I would rather die myself then watch or have any of you die" he sighed "You better get some rest..." he watched her face for afew seconds longer then turned back to looking at the stars.
-
cassandra smiled and rested her head on his shoulder," i'm fine right here," she said as she stared up at the stars
-
Legolas moved his arm and places it around her so she could lean on his more comfortably then places his head ontop of hers "Beautiful evening isn't it" he said softly as he slowly lent back againest the wall.
-
(this rp has too much luv in it...kill sum1 :laugh: :P)
-
(LMAO!!! :laugh: Well when were all asleep and woken up again were gonna fight and stuff so everyones sorta telling eachother how they feel! BTW Jess? You got MSN? If you have can I have your Addy? Becos It will be easyer then talking on here! :D)

i think megz is going to kill one of her characters soon, should be fun :laugh:)
cassandra sighed contently, "yeah, it is," ::), she soon fell asleep in his arms
-
(*Gasps* Wow! she never does anything liek KILLING off her characters all the time! Like Chris! LOL I'v added you! Aww Slushy but Cheesyness!!)
Legolas smiled down at Cassondra, he moved slowly as not to wake her but so he could get more comfey and soon her also fell asleep with his head resting ontop of hers. (Lucky Muppet! What I'd do to be Cassondra!!!)
-
(lol!)
i thinks maybe we should move to the next day and get this roleplay alive and going, we'll wait for megz so it'll be after her little break
-
(No, no, don't spam this up or it'll get deleted! Keep it alive, but just don't do too much without me! Remember, I'm still getting on here during school, and I should be back properly sometime near the weekend ::))
*Nienna glanced outside and saw Cassandra and Legolas, she smiled briefly and turned, so her head was resting back on the cold stone. She let her eyes rest and soon drifted off to sleep..*
*Eleclya was still in deep thought about what lay ahead of them, war, fighting, and probably death. She sighed sadly as she looked outside and saw Cassandra and Legolas, a look of woe on her face. Why did this have to happen to them? She looked back and rested her head on the back on the cave. She hoped, if she wasn't to die, that she could seek her revenge on Rhinvan*
-
as the night went on the fire died to a gentle amber glow, the stars shined brightly and everything was silent as it reached the early hours of the morning the skt began to lighten
-
Legolas lay there silently sleeping untill the sun shone onto his face, slowly waking up he looked down at Cassondra and smiled "Good morning" he whispered even tho she wasnt awake just yet. He Looked around to see mostly everyone else asleep, standing up and laying Cassondra into the part he had been laying in he smiled once again. Streching(Sp?) he went over to a small flowing river and watched her face and hands.
-
*Nienna stirred slightly and awoke to find the sun blazing in through the cave. Her eyes adjusted to the light and she got up. She walked over to the edge of the cave, hearing distant sounds heading their way. She knew what it was, it was the Dragons. She sighed sadly and wondered over to where she had slept and picked up her weapons, her sword, bow and arrow and two daggers*
*Eleclya was already awake, she hadn't slept all night and wasn't in the cave. She had roamed outside, where she had a good view of the horizon. She hand her hand firmly on the hilt of her sword* "This is it" *She muttered to herself* "Our deaths await us" *She looked down for a moment in sadness, then headed back towards the cave*
-
(Yes fighting! I Love a good bit of arse Kicking!!!! :D)
Legolas got back up and walked back over to the cave, "They are coming" he sighed and checked her had all his weapons. He smiled and knelt down beside Cassondra "I'm sorry to wake you but I think you better wake up" he smiled beaming down at her, trying not to show the fear of what lyed ahead in his face but you could see it in his eyes.
-
Blaen ran across the ledge outside the cave. "I count 20!" He shouted to the others in the cave.
-
cassandra opened her eyes and smiled up at legolas and then looked over to blaen as she got to her feet, "then 20 will lie dead tonight," she looked around, "where is eleclya?" she said looking about to see her figure approching
-
(since nobody seems to want to post on here what now?)
-
(ok, ok, I'm getting there...Sheesh, patience woman! I was having my tea ::))
*Eleclya approached them with a strong smile on her face* "Get ready for war, we're helping the Gondorians, whether they like it or not" *She said as she headed back into the cave, where all her weapons were. She picked up her sword and sheathed it, along with her two daggers and slotted them into her belt*
*Nienna was already ready and emerged out of the cave. She looked back slightly, awaiting the others*
-
Blaen smiled. He knews something the others did not. Meltharius was riding here with an entire army to do battle with the dragons. On the field of his brother's death the Elf King would fight for the fate of the world...
-
Legolas checked all his weapons and attached them properly, before sighing deeply. He had fort all his battles with Metharius he had always been with him, never fort Big battles like this without him and this felt very strange to him. "I hope hes ok" he muttered to himself and tryed to think of other things, the things he would be battling soon "Maybe..." he paused "Maybe I should go up there again and worn him?" he knew his friend was wrong and had changed but he couldnt bring himself to let once a loyal friend die just because of his stubbonous.
-
cassandra gave legolas a weak smile, "we'll do all we can for him by protecting his city and people, if he was ok he couldn't ask moreof us then that," she brushed her hair back from her face and sighed before checking over her weapons, "ready,"
-
*Eleclya nodded as she came up beside Nienna* "I'm ready" *She said strongly*
*Nienna sighed dismally and glanced at the others* "Shall we get going then? The Dragons will arrive about the same time we do if we go now and with haste"
-
"let us waste no time then," said cassandra as she hopped onto a neary rock then to another as she descended the hill the cave was set on
-
Legolas walked along side Cassondra, smiling slightly "Nervous?" he asked briftly jumping over a rock.
-
cassandra looked up, "i don't know, i guess i've known for a long time i'd have to fight for my survival and death is part of life so i guess i'm prepared for this, why are you?"
-
Blaen returned to the cave. "This battle will be long and hard, are you prepared?" he asked the others.
-
Legolas looked up at cassondra "I do not fear death no...But I do fear that if I die I will not be able to help my friends" he told her with the tone of sadness in his voice, turning quickly to Blaen "Yes..I'm ready! I'v been ready for a long time for this day!" his eyes twinckled slightly, he laways loved a good battle but one like this, he wasn't so sure. Meltharuis where are you when we need you? he thought to himself as he remembered this again would be one of his battles without him.
-
Blaen thought for a moment. "The dragons will be here within the hour, I have little time. Listen to me carefully, there is noway you can get back into Minas-Tirith, but I can. Do not worry though, I have a plan. When the signal beacon is lit then you will be able to enter the city, I must deal with Aragorn" the ranger told them.
-
*Eleclya had a uncertain look on her face* "Are you sure that going on your own is a good idea?" *She asked, pausing slightly* "I'd prefer it if I was to come with you, I can easily go unnoticed"
-
"No, I must go alone" Blaen said sternly.
-
*Eleclya nodded* "Very well, I wish you good luck" *She said smiling weakly*
-
"Remember, When the beacon is lit come to the city!" Blaen shouted as he made his way back to the city.
-
cassandra listened to blaen solumnly and then turned to legolas, "if you do die then you will remembered as one of the greats, a true and loyal friend and a great warrior, anyone who has known you will grieve,"
-
(Awww :'( :))
Legolas smiled slightly "I am Honoured but I'd rather stay here for as long as I can..I couldn't bare to leave the only people I have left at a time like this..I want to see Aragorn come back, Meltharuis...My childrens Childrens grow up...but I can not choose my fate" he smiled again and looked at the others.
-
cassandra put her hand on his shoulder, "i wish for your dreams to come true and i will try through whatever blocks my path to help you, i cherish your friendship," she said with a smile
-
Legolas smiled slightly "Thank you" But he felt his heart sink, he felt astho he had just been told everyone had died again. Friendship? he thought and looked down at his feet as he walked along.
(Oh ya....Im gonna make Legolas dream come true! You no the Buring village and The people screaming and a dark figure hanging over him then he gets hit bla bla bla! lol :D)
-
(coolied, we need something to get this roleplay moving!)
cassandra gently kissed legolas' cheek and smiled
-
As time passed wingbeats could be heard in the distance, and then the shriek of a dragon. But then a sound came to the ears of those in the cave that they did not expect. An elven horn blowing and then they heard a herald shout out. "Open the gates! Lord Meltharius demands entry!" the herald called. Then a familar voice responded "Nice to see you've arrived!" Blaen responded. They then heard the gates open and from the mouth of the cave they saw the beacon lit.
-
*Eleclya looked up when the elven horn was blown and got to her feet as soon as she saw the beacon was lit. She looked at the others in turn* "Come on, we must hurry. The beacon is lit" *She said, beginning to walk at a fast pace towards an entrance to the city with Nienna following swiftly behind her*
-
Legolas looked at cassondra and smiled before taking her hand quickly and rushing off ahead with the others.
-
cassandra followed everyone else, this was it
(sorry for short post, don't know what else to put)
-
chris, ya need to postie as you've kinda taken over the current plot! ::)
-
(soz, ive been away for the weekend)
Blaen stood with a guard of rangers ontop of the gate house watching the elves march into the city. There were not many, perhaps 200 at the most, but the elf at the head of the force would surely bolster morale. Meltharius marched infront, wearing full elvish plate mail that glistened in the moonlight.
-
*They all finally reached the walls of Minas Tirith and took a passage around the side that lead them up into the city. They headed swiftly towards the gates. Eleclya climed up towards a watch tower and when she saw Meltharius leading the elves a smile grew upon her face*
-
(tis okies :P)
cassandra looked up at elecyla, "what do you see?" she asked seeing the smile grow on her face
-
*Eleclya glanced down at them, her face rekindled with hope* "Meltharius, and he's brought an army of 200 elves" *She said, then she climbed down from the watching tower* "If this is to be our end, I'm glad it is with such good company" *She said smiling*
*Nienna smiled, she knew of this plan, but thought it better to not tell the others. She ran her hand over the hilt of her sword and looked towards the gates as they began to open to let the elves in behind the walls so they could prepare for battle*
-
(kinda have nothing to do so prepare for my cr@ppy little postie :P)
cassandra turned to legolas and grinnd, "you will still fight alongside him,"
-
Legolas smiled then relised he hadn't said this aloud "How did you know I was thinkign I wouldn't?" he said still smiling, he was glad to have one of his longest and dearest friends fightng along side him once again, aswell with Cassondra,Nienna and Eleclya.
-
Meltharius directed his army to the ramparts and then approached the ranger. "Nice to see you again friend" The elf said to Blaen. Blaen smiled "I'm glad you arived" he replied. Meltharius laughed "You expect me just to leave my friends to fight this battle alone? But anyway, how did you deal with Aragorn?" he asked. "Of course not Meltharius...And I did the only thing I could...I challenged him" Blaen explained. Meltharius simply nodded. "We can remove the spell later, for the moment with have more pressing matters...Where is my sister and the others?" Meltharius asked. "They should be here soon" the ranger said.
-
cassandra smiled, "i know you too well," she then turned to eleclya, "so whats the plan now?"
-
Legolas smiled at her again, she was right "Wait for them to get here? I think thats the only thing we can do!"
-
OK... I was in this at the start but like.... where is it know... and what has happened????????????!!!!!!!!!
-
(i don't think you could get back into it unless you want a dramatic entrance as chris has just had,
pretty much all of gondor has been destroyed by dragons now and most killed, aragorn is eveil and this is the beginning of what could be the last battle, i think that's pretty much what's happening, meltharious has returned with 2000 elves and eleclya, nienna, cassandra and legolas are all together
hope that was helpful)
-
(Yes... but where is everyone and how can I make and entrance!?)
-
(We're all in Gondor, Minas Tirith to be precise and a big war is about to start so you can be getting ready to fight if you want)
*Eleclya glanced back at the others* "We have little time to prepare. Lets find Meltharius" *She said, then she began to make her way towards the gates, which were not too far off from where they were*
-
(Can Hobbits make big entrance as well? Have it planned out already if yes!)
-
:o great idea, im so glad to see evry1 coming bak :laugh:, i think it mite of been my fault that u got pushed out...i do post wildly sumtimes, soz :(
-
(Aw, don't worry about it... just one thing... whos fighting against who and whos 'good'?)
-
(well meltharius and blaen are good...The evil Lord Rhinvan is controlling the attackin dragons using an ancient weapons. Aragorn was also controlled but Blaen deposed him...So basically now the humans, elves, and hobbits :P r gunna fight against the dragons, after that therell probably be 1 mor battle, wen we hunt down rhinvan)
-
(You will see... you will see... I take it it is alright for me to rejoin?Sorry for short post, just wanted to make my presence known!)
Sam spied Blaen ahead, through the crowds, and he quickly ran to catch up with him. "My Lord" Sam said bowing and blushing slightly, standing in front of him
-
Blaen wheeled around and stared down at the hobbit. A smile grew across his face. "Well, well, well, Master Gamgee...I had feared you dead...Are you here to stand with us?" the ranger-general asked the Hobbit.
-
Sam glanced up at Blaen's face, and then back at the ground. "I do not wish to fight..." He said softly "But it seems we have to. The others will be coming tomorrow" All the male Hobbits who could fight at the Shire had been sent to the war. They had no choice. Sam had been sent ahead to tell Blaen, because he had met him before
-
(Wow, all these people coming back, hehe, glad you could all come :P. I got a message from Amarie asking if she could join and I said yes so hopefully we shall have someone else on the way soon :D)
(Urmm...Yesh, not much for me to do at the moment :-\)
-
(Woo!Hobbits are back in it!)
Sam looked up at Blaen once more, and then to the backs of the others "I will go tell the others that the Hobbits have come to help" he said quietly, and hurried past Blaen, to Nienna "Excuse me, M'Lady"
-
Blaen smiled as Sam ran off. Meltharius walked over and clapped his hand on the ranger's shoulder. "If we last the night then those Hobbits will really turn the tide..." he said. "I will leave you in charge of organising the defence, first there is someone I must meer" he winked at Blaen and then ran after Sam.
-
*Nienna turned and looked down, when she saw Sam a smile grew on her face* "Sam! You're here" *She said, feeling very glad to see one of her old friends*
-
Legolas looked between all the them all, he hasn't seen Sam since the last war he was very pleased to see him .He knew Metharius had arrived but he was know where to be seen Maybe he doesn't want to see us?he told himself..he did suddenly up and leave, so maybe he had left for another reason. Sighing loadly he watched cassondra then tened to his swrod once again before turning back round again to watch the horizon.
(If legolas knew Aragorn from the war of the ring in this rp then he must no Sam! :D)
-
Meltharius arrived shortly after Sam. He looked into Nienna's eyes, "Nice to see you again M'Lady" he said grinning.
-
(ok, read about 10 pages and I hope I got everything - if not just tell me
character: Amarie, she is half elf, half witch - knows some magic, but not to much - many of her spells go wrong still, because she tried to teach herself from books - she grew up in Rivendell - both parents (father: wizard, mother: elf) are dead, she is a skilled healer and can handle a bow decently; her most striking feature is her flaming red hair (makes her easy to recognize))
Amarie spotted Eleclya and started walking towards her. It was a long time since she had seen her old friend. "It is said that it has to be at a time like this..." Amarie thought.
-
*Eleclya smiled as she saw everyone reunited again. She turned slightly, after catching a glimpse of someone familiar in her eye. She looked over and instantly spotted one of her old friends* "Amarie?" *She half asked with a smile on her face*
*Nienna smiled brightly when she saw Meltharius* "It's nice to see you too" *She said feeling happy, even though they were about to face a big war..*
-
"Mae govannen Eleclya, old friend", Amarie said when she had reached the group. She hugged Eleclya and nodded at Nienna and the others.
-
"She was the first to volunteer when I told the elves of our predicament" Meltharius said, indicating Amarie. He turned back to Sam. "Maybe you should get fitted with some armour Master Gamgee. I believe that Aragorn had some hobbit-sized armour made after the War of the Ring." he said to Samwise.
-
Amarie smiled. "It just kind of sad that we have to meet under these circumstances..." , she said to Eleclya Her eyes wondered around taking everything in. " What else could I have done but come here, I might be of help and after all, this concerns the future of us all. So when Meltharius came to Rivendell, there was no question to what I would do." She was grieved, grieved about what had happened here in Gondor and in all of Middle Earth. She thought back to happier times and sighed.
-
Sam smiled at the others, amazed to see how many people he knew. Samwise then looked up at Meltharius, nodding slightly. "Yes, I suppose I shall have to" He said
-
"So, fill me in on what's been happening- and where I can be of most use... where will the wounded be teated - or would you rather have me fighting?" Amarie tried to talk the weird feeling of sadness away. Maybe occuying herself would help...
-
"Lord Rhinvan has, in his possession, the ancient weapon that controls most Dragons in Middle Earth, unless they choose to resist with a greater force. He's manipulated the Dragons and they are now on their way to destroy the last kingdom of mankind" *Eleclya explained* "If we can win this war, then maybe we can get to Rhinvan before he wreaks more death upon Middle Earth" *She paused* "We need anyone who can to fight. We are greatly out-numbered"
(Ok, we've already done waaay too much without Jess, so need to wait for her so she doesn't get too lost or left behind)
-
(thanks megz, and for once i actually read all that :P, welcome back everyone :))
cassandra listened to as much as she thought that wouldn't class her as ease dropping, she was glad to see friends new and old and she smiled warmly at everyone, cassandra then watched as elves prepared for battle, her attention then drew to legolas who had remained quiet, she put her hand on his shoulder, "although we are accompaned by some of the greats i am greatful you of all are here,"
-
"The Hobbits will be coming tomorrow to help" Sam said absentmindedly, not really understanding all Eleclya had said. Sam watched the Elves preparing... he was still fascinated by them. He then looked back up at the others, his smile disappeared from his face.
-
Looking at Eleclya Amarie said: "Very well, fighting it is then...." She took out her bow and began to check her arrows. When she was finished she looked around again. No, to try magic would be too dangerous here; this could only be a last resort...
-
Blaen suddenly appeared holding up a chainmail shirt. "I found this for you Sam, I understand that you probably don't want to help but every extra warrior increases our chances." he said to the hobbit.
-
Sam turned to see Blaen, and brushed his fingers lightly on the chainmail shirt, before taking it it his hands. "Thankyou" He said softly, staring down at it. "I will help as much as I can, but I'm afraid I will be more of a nuisance than a help." Sam looked back up at Eleclya and then at the others.
-
Amarie smieled at Sam "No, Master Hobbit, no one who helps and is true of heart can ever be a nuisance."
-
A fairly short girl suddenly appeared. She stood facing them all looking very stern. She looked as if she were in her teens, early teens but was dressed ready to fight. She looked at them all, one by one. She looked Sam up and down in amazement.
-
Blaen turned and looked at the girl who had just arrived..."I know you from somewhere...Who are you?" he asked the girl.
-
Sam turned to see the g!rl, and bowed his head respectfully. He also knew the g!rl from somewhere, he was sure, but couldn't quite place where he had seen her
-
Legolas turned to cassondra quickly and smiled warmly "As I am for you...I'll protect you with my life while we are out there, as I would for anyone of us, I am glad for seeing my old friends again aswell as having you by my side" he said placing his arm round the back of her shoulders "Samwise for you are always helpful..In more ways then you know yourself. You are one of the few people who give people hope just by being there...for when you give up hope there isn't much hope left" he said smiling down at him.
-
Amarie glanced at the girl only sortly, then she turned back to Eleclya "What is this anchient weapon which Lord Rhinvan has? How can it be controlled?" Amarie wanted to know.
While she spoke she noticed Legolas talking to a beautiful woman. She had sometimes seen him in Rivendell, but she didn't know if he remembered her.
-
*Eleclya briefly glanced at the girl, but when Amarie questioned her she turned her attention once more to her old friend* "The name of this weapon that I speak of is usually spoke in a language I would rather not utter here, although it's only power is that it can control dragons, it is a mighty one at that" *She paused* "It can only be controlled by someone who possesses black magic, of course, it is only here because of it's use of evil. The sooner it's destroyed the better" *She said, although she feared for the weapon, who in their group could use black magic except from her? Even she didn't like to use it, she knew that sort of power could over-rule her..*
-
The girl looked at Samwise and answered his question "Aragorns daughter."
-
cassandra bit her lip as she solumnly listened to eleclya, she looked up as the girl finally spoke, she was now entriged to see if aragorn's daughter could help them
-
"Aragorn's daughter!" Sam exclaimed, and bowed quickly "It was very nice to meet you"
Sam studied the others faces silently as they heard what Eleclya was saying, but looked away if anyone met his gaze. He turned to Blaen "I will go try this on then" He said, meaning the chainmail shirt, smiling "Thankyou again" Sam slipped away from the group, and made his way down the busy street
-
"A weapon controlled by black magic. This could be used by anyone with knowlege of magic then, which makes it even more dangerous...." Amarie paused in midthought, looking at the girl. So this was Aragorn's daughter. Yes, she could recognize the features of the childhood friend in them- but she had not seen Aragorn for a very, very long time.
-
The girl looked at Amarie. She looked at everyones faces leaning on her sword. "I am one of many, yet the only girl. My brothers will not listen to anything anyone says to them... not even me. They are ready to fight to the death, and, I shall follow them."
-
Blaen's smile disappeared immeadiately. "I am sorry for what I had to do to your father but he is not himself. He shall not be imprisoned for long you have my word, but in his state he cannot possibly lead the forces of Gondor, me and Faramir have taken responsability" he explained. "But if you wish I will step aside and let you or one fo your brothers command?" he suggested.
Meltharius stood next to Nienna, his grey eyes staring into the distance. "Are you ok?" he asked her.
-
Amarie looked at Blean. What was told her before suddendly hit home. Still she could not imagine Aragrorn turning evil - he had always been so strong. Nevertheless she was glad that capeable people had taken over.
She looked again at the girl. Yes, this was truely Aragorns daughter. The same determination.
-
*Eleclya smiled at the girl* "It's good to know we have your help" *She said*
*Nienna glanced up at Meltharius briefly* "Yeah, I'm fine" *She said looking down slightly* "You?"
-
Meltharius turned to face her. "I feel old, I feel as though I have walked this earth for too long, I am battle worn and weary." he sighed.
-
Sam came back, the chainmail shirt hiddenunderneath his shirt. It fit perfectly. He smiled at the others, and stood beside Eleclya
-
Amarie thought again about what the girl had said. 'Fight to the death'- was she prepared to die? She had never thought about her own death, although she was not unfamiliar with death. She well knew that not everyone could be healed. But to die herself....or one of her close friends. This was unimaginable.
-
*Nienna sighed and took Meltharius' hands in hers as she looked up into his eyes* "I know, and it saddens me greatly to see you like this, but we have this last battle to fight, one more, then we can track Rhinvan down and kill him for good" *She said giving his hands a soft squeeze* "If we can win this then at last we will be at peace"
-
"Eldarion, would gladly take on the job as he is the eldest, and most experienced!" She paused "Do what you must to my father... He trained us all to fight, and none of us are scared to die, to die fighting for what we beleive!" Her voice began to get louder at her last few words.
-
(Can we move this along to the battle?Or not... Oh, and Earedien whats your characters name?)
Sam watched the g!rl, listening to what she was saying. He could see the same stubborness as Aragorn had shown many times to him. He smiled slightly to himself, and then turned, kneeling on a chair, looking out over the land
-
(Ask me and you'll find out!! :P)
The girl looked around at them all. She said to them "I shall get my brothers" She ran out of the room, and, within a few minutes had returned with, at least 15 tall men "These," she pointed to the men "are my brothers, and this," she pointed to the eldest looking, most skilled looking and tallest boy "is Eldarion"
-
Sam turned as the men walked in. "Excuse me to be so rude" He said quietly looking at the g!rl"But I do not appear to have caught your name..."
-
Blaen exhanged a quick glance with Faramir. He would of course let Eldarion lead the armies of Gondor but he was young, and no way near as experience as either Faramir or himself.
Meltharius nodded but said nothing.
-
(Can we move this along to the battle?Or not...)
(Yeah, but we kinda need to wait for Megs and Jess to post before we move on. They've been left behind a bit :-\)
-
"Anarnyi, Master hobbit. And let me tell you, the day hobbits fight along side us, is a day wanted to be witnessed." The girl answered. She looked at one of the boys then whispered something to him. He looked up.
"I am given the honour of leading Gondor?" He asked, expecting his sister to be lying
-
(Thanks everyone for waiting two pages onwards. :dry: :(..Thanks Megz! :D yes we have to wait for the One and Only mad jess! Ill post a lil post to get legolas back in!!)
Legolas didn't say much while eveyone was discussing everything, only turn his head to each person in turn who spoke. He stood up and walked up behind Methrius placing his hand on his shoulder "It's good to have you back my loyal friend" he smiled.
-
"Mae govannen Eldarion" Amarie said, smiling at the young man. "And Anarnyi,"she said, turning to the girl "It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Amarie."
-
Both the boy and the girl shortly nodded their heads, Anarnyi placed her sword back in its place.
-
(thanks for the wonderful introduction there megz :D
2 pages! :o :dry:)
cassandra listened to everyone in turn but remained silent, she was standing on the edge of an oncoming battle that was one like no other that she had fought before, she was glad of the respectable new help but mostly for her friends, she and nienna had been through a lot to get to where they stood this day, with this thought she brushed back her hair and turned to address everyone, "friends and allies, today we will make history so lets do it well," she said with a smile and glint to her eye, she put her hand on the hilt of her sword and grasped it tightly
-
(are you in the same room as me or not?? ???)
-
*Eleclya smiled at Cassandra, but her head turned when a sound of a loud horn filled the ruins of what was left of Minas Tirith errily. Up on the horison the tips of many wings could be seen making their way forward, a call from above errupted across the city* "Everyone to your positions!!" *Called the man who had sounded the horn. Eleclya turned to the others, a look of sadness in her eyes as she drew her sword* "Good luck to all of you" *She said with a respectful nod and with that she ran up to the top of the watching towers awaiting the on-coming Dragons*
*Nienna sighed and hugged Meltharius, she leaned up to whisper in his ear* "I love you" *She said faintly. She pulled away to face him and take one last look into his eyes* "I hope to see you at the end of all this"
-
cassandra turned to legolas and kissed his cheek, "good luck," she smiled slightly, "at the end of this we'll see who's killed the most," she said drawing her sword
-
The boys ran out in different directions, some of which were furiously firing arrows at the dragons. Anarnyi jumped on her eldest brother, he ran and she fired the arrows.
-
Meltharius drew his sword and climbed up onto the battlements. The dragons were circling the city, suddenly one of the dragons veered through mid-air, it's direction changed and it headed straight for the elf. It was then Meltharius noticed something, the dragons had riders. The dragon alighted on the tower, the rider was guised in black, and looked some-what reminiscent of a Ringwraith but of course, this was a ploy to evoke the fears of the men. The rider laughed at Meltharius, a shrill evil laugh. "Look at the puny little elf my pet" he whispered to his dragon. "We sssshall break his boneses no?" he continued. Meltharius stood up straight. "And what manner of creature are you?" Meltharius asked the rider. The rider cocked his head. "You shall never know elf...Kill him my pet!" the rider screamed. The dragon began to advance on Meltharius but the elf held his ground, his sword at the ready.
-
Sam drew his sword, taking a deep breath. He looked around at the others leaving, and left the room quickly. He made his way up onto the battlements, and saw Meltharius being attacked by one of the dragons. Sam could not help, and stood watching in horror
-
The dragon roared but Meltharius held his ground. Suddenly the dragon lurched forward and snapped at Meltharius. Meltharius leaped over the the Dragon's neck and jumped at the rider. Meltharius impacted with the rider and the rider pulled back, the reins pulled on the dragon and the dragon thinking it's master had given it an order jumped into the air and flew away. As the dragon circled Minas-Tirith the rider and Meltharius did battle. The looser would die...
-
(Hey people!
I am going away for a visit to relatives this coming Saturday (26th March) to the following Saturday (2nd April), and I will be unable to get access to a pc. I would be extremely grateful if someone could move my character along, so I dont get lost in this r/p!
Many thanks,
xXSAMXx)
-
(OK then Samwise, see you when you get back!!)
The girl lept of her brother and ran straight for Smawise pushing him out of the way as another creature headed towards him. She took out another arrow, and took aim. She hit it right between the eyes. It screamed a loud piercing scream. Anarnyi couldn't help put duck plugging her ears.
-
(Sorry back now!! :D)
Legolas ran over to his placement and awaited the dragons to appear closer then before.He made his way up high, pulling out an arrow as a dragon with a tall,dark hodded rider flew past nearly knocking off his feet just by the wind from it's wing power. Drawing an arrow and placing it into his Bow he drew it, aimed as best as he could for the rider, flying threw the air it cort the riders arm. Letting out a spin tingling screech, he drew another arrow aiming again for the rider. However this time it got this neck, it screeched as it feel of the dragons rough back, Legolas jumped off the high wall and down towards the ground.
Looking down upon the dieing rider he pulled out his sword and pushed it hard and fast threw its torso to put it out of his missory quickly, He turned round to see if any of his friends needed help, he looked around for Cassondra but he couldn't see her,Nienna or anyone else from where he was.
-
Anarnyi fell to the ground covering her ears in pain. The screech didn't seem to end, the dragon fell lower and lower, screaming louder and louder. Anarnyi quickly pulled an aroow out and fired it again, it landed where the heart of the dragon would be. The screech grew louder still. Anarnyi crouched down, men all around her covered their ears, and, women screamed running away to anywhere they could. This combined noise made it even harder.
-
(Not quite gone yet... can do a couple more posts!)
Sam stood up, holding his sword tightly. He stabbed angrily at the dragon. the noise growing louder and louder. His free heand clutched desperately at one of his ears, trying to block out the noise
-
(Woah! Slow down people! We're leaving other peoples behind! This is my last post until Amarie and Jess can post)
*Eleclya ducked sharply as a Dragon and rider swooped down, bearly missing her. She was tempted now to use her powers more than ever, but she knew she had to reserve her strength, if not she and probably everyone else there were doomed. She dragged her sword up and as the Dragon came swooping down by her again, she slashed as hard as she could through it's stomach, although it caused little damage as she expected, there was bearly a wound there. The rider on the Dragon smirked as it came down on her again, this time the Dragon's claw came into contact with her face, giving her a few deep cuts across her cheeks as she got thrown to the ground. She winced, she had hit a rock, but got back up again, awaiting for a moment where she could perhaps blind her attacker so she wasn't such a easy target*
*Nienna had lost sight of the others, somehow she had been pushed back and now had this growing fear of the life of her friends. She gulped down her worries as she eyed up a Dragon and rider heading her way. Clenching her sword tightly she awaited it, as it came down on her she was covered in shadow, she raised her sword to block any attack and had made the beast back off slightly. She quickly whispered something in elvish, yet nothing happened, nothing that anybody else could see, she swung her sword up towards the Dragon and as soon as it came into contact with it's skin it began to burn and peel. The Dragon let out a mighty screech as it beat it's wings down to pull itself up away from Nienna*
-
(thanks for waiting - by the way, I'll be away most of next week so it would be great, if someone could just move my charcter along thanks :) also feel free to make her act and talk... if you need a more detailed bio for that it's in that character bio threat...)
Amarie was surprised at how swiftly the dragons came on. She noticed the riders which did look somwhat like nazgul. But without further though Amarie pulled out an arrow and put it on the bow. She began shooting, careful to aim a the riders first. She was lucky for at the moment no single dragonrider seemed to have taken interest in her. She saw Eleclya fighting and tried to get through to her. When she saw Eleclya being injured she gasped and tried to move faster.
-
cassandra leapt out of the way as a dragon swooped down, she turned rapidly knowing she'd have to be smart and save her powers to aid eleclya when the time came, she grasped hold of the dragon's wing and swung herself up, she steaded herself as the dragon moved it's wing to stay air born, it's rider raised it's bow and shot straight for her, cassandra caught it and sent it back in her own bow, the arrow reflected off the rider's armor before he got to his feet and drew his sword, blade against blade their swords clashed, cassandra swerved out of the way and slipped, lieing on the dragon's hide, as the rider plunged his sword she moved out of the way and the sharp blade pierced the dragon's skin, the dragon groaned in pain
-
Meltharius struggled with the rider. They were very high above the city now, Meltharius tried to bring his sword to bare on the Rider but a blow to the face caused the elf to let go. The sword plumeted downwards into the gloom. Meltharius quickly retaliated and pummeled the Rider with his steel gauntlets but to no effect. The rider elbowed Meltharius in the face again and again but the elf still clutched to the dragon. Meltharius tried to draw his dagger from his sheath but found it stuck.
-
Legolas stared too run around swiftly behind some tree's looking for other human life near him, No dragons had spotted him yet so he ran threw the back of the woods and into the fields. Looking around once again he spotted Nienna "NIENNA!" he yelled over the roaring of the dragons and riders.
-
*Nienna gasped and looked up as she heard her name being shouted, but she couldn't move the Dragon was coming down on her again. She thrust up her sword and yet again it burnt the Dragon and she managed to run out beneath it. She looked around, gasping for breath, then she saw Legolas* "Legolas!" *She shouted and began to run over to him, as she drew nearer the Dragon she had been fighting before swooped down upon her and it's claws dug into her shoulders and pulled her up. Nienna struggled in it's grasp and tried to free herself but the Dragon let her go in mid air and she dropped to the stone floor*
-
Anarnyi saw the dragon coming towards Nienna again and pulled out her bow and arrow. She shot at the dragon and hit it in the heart, it let out another scream, Anarnyi fell to the ground covering her ears of the piercing(sp?) yell, the dragon crashed to the ground.
-
cassandra fought the rider whilst keeping her balance on the dragon as it flew menacingly over minis tirith, cassandra slipped as the dragon turned and the rider's blade slashed across the top of her arm, cassandra kicked the sharplt and he fell to his knees, she then drove her sword through him before he perished, she made her way over to the dragons head, standing just behind it, she grabbed hold of the chain that had been used as reins and tugged, the dragon soared through the sky, weaving about, it descended and swooped start past legolas and nienna
-
(can use a computer today, but will be gone next week! Happy Easter and I would be greatful if you could move my charcter along... Thank you !!! :))
Before Amarie could reach Elyclya a dragon came down on her. She shot at the rider. Although she had missed it , it flew higher into the air and away from her. Amarie sighed with relief and continued on her way, hoping she was not too late.
-
Legolas swiftly drew another arrow and aimed it for the dragons eye, just missing it and bouncing off its armoured head he quickly ran over to Nienna. "Are you ok?" he asked trying to help her up, getting covered in her blood he tryed to stand her up "Come on...Your stronger then this! You can't let a thing like a dragon get in YOUR way" he held her up, so she could get her legs. The Dragon swooped down again this time it was even more furious then before, the dragon held out his claws aiming for legolas, however he had seen Cassondra. Looking over towards her to see if she was safe the dragon thrusted its claw into Legolas knocking him to the ground, causing a gash across his face and across his neck. Standing up wincing slightly he draw his sword "COME ON THEN!!!" he yelled angryly at it.
-
cassandra knew her own sword and arrows could not kill the dragon, she looked around in desperation as the dragon flew through the sky, she then spotted the rider's sword, she manged to make her way over to it and pick it up without slipping, she made her way back to behind the head of the dragon, she took a deep breath before plunging it down into the dragon's flesh, it managed to break through the armor like skin and penatrate the dragon, it screamed in pain and plummeted to the ground, cassandra held on as it crashed, she jumped off a little woozily, the dragon wasn't dead but it was well injured, she looked about and saw nienna near legolas, she ran over to them, "you ok?" she then saw the dragon they were fighting above them in the sky, "guess not,"
-
Anarnyi, got up and ran to another dragon heading straight for her. She stuck her sword up through its throut and out the other side. Its legs thrashed about, one claw caught her and tore through her skin, she screamed with pain, not moving though. After a minute the dragon collapsed beside her. She withdrew her sword and fell to the ground, nearly crying out in pain.
-
(well They asked for other people to move them along so we dont have to wait. So if we can find two people willing to do so then we're fine!!)
-
(What if we just leave them and IM telling them whats happened, 'cos its hard enough with time differences and stuff. We're not all on at the same time.)
-

The roleplay board gets cleared out every 2 weeks it's not like it's gonna be taken off. If this spamminess and arguing doesn't stop I'll just lock this until Samwise and Amarie can catch up!)
-

(thanks for that and I totally agree! Thanks for offering to take my character, but I'm back now. And I'll get you back into the rp ...)
"Watch out!" Amarie shouted to Sam when she saw the dragon which had just left her starting a charge at the hobbit. She started bombarding the dragon with arrows, firing as fast as she could.
-
(Sorry for double posting - and Sam - if I got your character in wrong, just tell me and I'll modify or draw that post back... :))
-
(Wow Jess! Chad looks so damn fine! lol sorry...any whoo!)
Legolas moved quickly out of the way of the dragons swift claws, rolling across the floor barely missing a rock. "You can do better then that!!" he yelled at it drawing his arrows and aiming for his face, It just skimmed its cheek "COME ON THEN!!" the dragon turned and nose dived down towards him. Grabbing his sword as quickly as he could he dodged it once again then swong his swords blade across his face catching its eye. Causing the dragon to become even more wild and angry it dived threw the air towards cassondra "OH NO YOU DONT!!"
Quickly as he could he rolled,jumped and threw everythign out of his path to get to Cassondra before the Dragon did, leaping infront of her he held his hands into of the Dragons snapping jaws trying to hold it back "Run...Go" he yelled over roaring and the struggle to keep it back, the blood from the gashes on his face and neck from before dripping down his face and chest. "JUST GO!" He finaily shouted, under the strain.
-
Amarie turned and saw a dragon attacking Legolas. There was so much blood and hurt around her that the healer in her just wanted to help every single one of them. Not sure what to do or which impulse to obey she stood motionless for a second.
But she had come here to fight and so she forced herself to concentrate on the dragon she had been attacking. It had turned his attention to her and was coming closer fast. Amarie pulled her last arrow out of her quiver. "Damn!" she shouted "This will better be a good shot," she thought and aimed carefully.
-
(Thanks Amarie!Sorry for short post...)
Sam ducked, and the dragon swooped over him. He stabbed his sword up in the dragon's stomach, as it flew over.
-
(This is my last post until Chris and Jess can post)
*Nienna had now been pushed away from the others, after killing the Dragon that was after her before another had now come at her, although it had already lost it's rider. She swiftly jumped up onto a low wall and got out her bow and arrows, she shot two at a time, aiming for the eyes and sometimes she would try and shoot at it's heart but it was shielded with tough armour-like skin*
-
"i'm not going anywhere!" said cassandra strongly, she gripped the rider's sword that she still had from before and slashed at the dragon's face, it growled in anguish before going to snap at legolas and cassandra, she fought off it's teeth with the blade
-
Anarnyi could not move from pain of sound. The dragon collapsed on top of her, the wings surrounded her, the head infront of her and tail behind, she stood up and looked around her "Oh crap" She muttered
-
Meltharius pummeled the ride again and again with his gauntlets but still the rider held a firm grip on the reins. As Meltharius rose his hand to let loose another blow the dragon changed direction suddenly and Meltharius lost his balance and he found himself falling into the blackness of the night. As he fell Meltharius pulled the bow slung on his back into his hands and loosed an arrow into the blackness above him, a screech rang through the night...he had hit his target, he smiled, knowing that he had at least got one last kill before meeting his doom on the fields of pellanor that he was fast approaching............
...Meltharius suddenly hit something, but it was not the ground, it was soft and...feathered! "Eagles!" he exclaimed as he gripped the giant bird.
-
(Is it just Dragons or orcs as well?)
Sam looked up at the sky, and smiled broadly, his eyes shining "Eagles!" He murmured, amazed. He ran to the wall, and kneeled on a bench, oblivious now to the fight behind him
-
(Just Dragons and the creatures riding them, which are similar to Orc's)
*An Eagle swooped down by Nienna and the Dragon she was failing to bring down. The Eagle occupied the Dragon, leaving Nienna free. It battled with it, flying high up over Minas Tirith, Nienna watched in amazement as the Eagle clawed at the Dragon and eventually let it fall to it's death. She smiled at the Eagle, maybe this was a chance, a sign, they might be able to win this fight. She clenched her sword with a sudden burst of hope and went running towards a Dragon and it's rider. She jumped up onto a large rock and pushed herself up onto the Dragon, as she jumped her foot went crashing into the orc-like creature pushing it over the walls of Minas Tirith and to it's doom. The Dragon, however, realising it had lost it's rider began to move and fly in an attempt to get Nienna off it's back but she clung onto the harness the creature was holding on by. It kicked out, struggling to get Nienna off, but Nienna smirked, she had a plan..*
*Meanwhile, Eleclya was battling right at the bottom of Minas Tirith in the depths of the city. She could not see the sky or any other life form except from her and the mighty Dragon that was breathing fire down upon her. Sheilding herself with a silvery barrier she winced. She had many wounds across her stomach and various slashes across her face. The amount of blood she was loosing was draining her energy and the barrier she was managing to hold wouldn't last forever. She knew she could use her powers but only at the right time, if she was to get the timing wrong, she could die, or even the city could collapse. She struggled to keep herself on her feet, but when the Dragon stopped breathing fire for a moment she knew it was the time. She let down her barrier and her eyes immediately glazed over white. She held up her hand towards the Dragons face and let out a blinding white beam which hit it in the eyes. It pushed it back and threw it into a wall not too far from them. The brick and rubble quaked and fell down onto the Dragon, with the force and power from the beam and the wall it fell dead. But as Eleclya began to make her way from the cornered position she was in the walls of the surrounding streets fell in on her pushing her towards the floor, knocking her unconscious..*
(She's not dead...Not yet anyway ::))
-
Legolas looked back at Cassondra, smiling slight however feeling angry at the same time for everything that was happening "THE EAGELS!" he yelled watching them......as he did so the dragon took another swipe at him with its huge teeth, biting his arm and throwing him to the ground. Letting out a slightly cry he pulled himself back up watching his armor fill with blood, it was his fighting arm, struggling to pick his sword back up he winced in pain. Trying to over come it he pulled out one of his daggers with his left arm "I cant use my bow but I can still fight!" he yelled over the Eagles watching them slowly close in on the dragon that had just attached him. Not really realising anything around him over then Cassondra he didnt know if he would see any of his other freinds again, where they were r even if they where still alive! Hope kept him fighting on!
-
Amarie released her arrow. She did not miss, but neither was the shot sufficient to kill the dragon. However, it flew higher into the air obviously injured. Amarie did't know what to do next. She drew out her daggers, preparing for a last fight, for knowing she had no skill with these weapons, she must surely die. At that momnet an eagle took hold of the dragon, which had been diving at her for another attack. She saw them fighting and flying away past the city walls. Amarie stood there, motionless for a moment. And let the daggers fall. Then she looked around. The wounded - she would be needed now. Slowly she forced herself to move, not to be overcome by the sight of so many dead. She stept over the bodies. Checking if she thought someone bight be alive. Giving some small relief, wherever she could and marking those who needed attention for other healers to see by sticking their sword with a piece of cloth attached to it next to them. For the dying she could do nothing and it stabbed at her heart. In this way she moved towards Legolas, who was the only one of her friends she could see. Where Eleclya was she did not know, but the feelings overpowering her at the sight before her did not leave room for worry. She just hoped the otheres were all right.
-
From where Sam had been watching, he had seen Eleclya, and the walls caving in on her. He turned around, looking for anyone to help him. He couldn't see a single face he knew, and got to his feet, desperately scanning the crowd. Finally, Sam gave up. He ran down flights of stairs to where he had last seen Eleclya. but the caved in walls blocked him from going any further. "HELP!" He yelled... maybe someone would come, but they would have to come soon if they were going to help Eleclya
-
From somewhere Amarie heard a cry for help. She turned in the direction it must have come from. It sounded desperate. She ran towards the outer wall, because the cry sounded as if it had come from farther down. At that moment she could see Sam, several flights of stairs down. Her feeling told her she should go down, but she could not see or tell why. She looked back at Legolas. She could see a lot of blood, but guessed that some of the other healers who were already on the field would tend to him. She trusted her feeling and ran down the stairs towards Sam. "What's wrong?" she shouted when she was in earshot of him.
-
Sam smiled in relief as he saw Amarie. He knew she could help if they got Eleclya out and she was seriously hurt. "It's Elecyla!" He called back to her "She's trapped under all this rubble" He gestured behind him at the destroyed remain of the street "You have to help me! I can't get her out by myself!"
-
Amarie ran to him and tried to get an overview of the situation. "We should start digging..." was all she said. But while she was working she sent out a cry for help in her mind. Hoping that any one of the others would be able to hear her and respond to her plea.
-
cassandra looked up at the eagles with a slight smile and then to legolas, "are you ok?" she asked seeing his arm
-
Legolas smiles slightly, trying to block out the pain watching the blood sock into his clothes and it begining to claw up his arm. "I'll be ok...had worst!" he smiled weakly taking his dagger in his good arm and swinging it around "Lets go kill some dragons!" he looked at Cassondra, dreading taking his arm armor off later, he could feel his wounds where deep however he didn't want to worry anyone.
-
When no answer came Amarie tried to contact Eleclya. If she was concious, she would be able to hear her. All the while Amarie continued clearing rubble away with no visible affect. Slowly she became frightened. What if they were not in time?
-
cassandra gave legolas a smile as she got to her feet, she looked up into the sky as she saw an approching dragon circling the area, she started to climb a ledge and oince at the top prepared her bow to get the dragons attention
-
Anarnyi slashed her way through the corpsed dragon and ran out, she looked up at the eagles and let out a sharp whistle! One of the leading Eagles suddenly dived and she leapt onto one "Whistle to them, dont blink, and stay calm!! You'll.. well theyll allow you top ride them if you do that!!!" She yelled to everyone
-
(just thought you should know megz won't be online for a while :-\, i think we're still waiting for chris to catch up though before moving on)
-
(are we moving on sometime? - actually I just put this post to make sure this rp will not be deleted :))
-
(Well I'm waiting on Sam and Chris to reply.. :8o. To be honest there's not a whole lot I can do ::). I'll post a bit for Nienna though when I get home, am at school at the moment)
(EDIT: Back home now)
*Nienna, whilst holding on to the Dragons hide with her right hand reached down into the side of her boot and slipped out a Dagger from it. She leaned forward as the Dragon jolted it's head up and down and struggled to fling her off. She stabbed at it's left eye, blinding it and then moved onto the right one. She knew if she blinded her enemy this would give her a better chance of defeating it. Nienna then swiftly jumped back onto the wall and off the Dragon, whilst it tried to find her with it's hearing. Nienna breathed slowly and quietly as she could, stepping away carefully in hope the Dragon would not hear her..*
-
Amarie looked at Sam, afraid to stop digging, afraid to never see Eleclya again. She hoped Sam would tell her that it was not too late yet and not to give up, but so far he was just digging silently at her side. Time seemed to have stopped and everyone seemed to move in slow motion. Amarie felt helpless and desperate...
-
Meltharius jumped from the eagle and landed safely on the walls of Minas-Tirith once more. He drew his dagger from it's sheath and looked around. The city burned but still the defenders fought against the last of the dragons. Victory was nearly theres. Suddenly a screech filled the night and Meltharius wheeled around. A dragon, it's chest pierced by an arrow, smashed into the fortresses walls. The rider jumped off at the last moment and snarled at Meltharius, it's mace in hand he lashed out, smashing the mace across the Meltharius' shield, breaking the elf's arm like a twig in an instant. Meltharius fell to the ground with a cry of pain. The rider cackled with glee and rose the mace in the air, ready to finish the elf off. Meltharius waited for the blow to fall but it never did...All of a sudden the rider screamed in agony. Meltharius looked up at the rider, an arrow imbedded in it's chest, the rider fell dead.
Blaen lowered his bow and ran torwards the elf on the ground. "What would you do without me Meltharius?" he grinned. He offered the fallen elf a hand and pulled him to his feet.
-
cassandra fired arrows at the dragon that bounced off the dragon's armor-like skin, the dragon's head turned, it's red eyes fixating on cassandra before dived down at her,
cassandra leapt off the ledge just as the dragon collided with the ruin, skimming the top and sending tumbling rubble after cassandra
-
Sam looked at Amarie, noticing how she seemed to slowed down slightly. "Keep going," He said softly, his eyes focused back on the hole. He cried out as he saw something... a hand! "Quick, over here!" He told Amarie "I've found her!" Sam desperately tried to clear the rocks away from the body, determined not to give up
-
*Eleclya was semi-conscious, she was trying to move, call out, something to show she was ok but she couldn't, she felt powerless, but knew the sooner she was out the sooner she could help*
*The blinded Dragon sniffed the air cautiously as Nienna moved away, but she nudged a rock with her foot and the Dragon stopped. It then, knowing it was her, lunged towards her and thew ger to the ground, bearing it's teeth at her. Nienna grasped desperately at her sword which was sheathed by her side and brought it up. The Dragon raised it's claw and slashed it across her face, making a deep wound. But Nienna ignored it and managed to pull up her sword and thrust it deep up into the Dragons heart. As it staggered slightly in pain she pulled herself from underneath it, just before it fell to the ground, dead*
-
Amarie felt new engery in her when she saw that Sam had found Eleclya. She kept on digging with him and finally they had most of her free of rubble. While Sam was clearing away the rubble at Eleclya's feet Amarie knelt down beside her, felt the pulse and checked her breath. "She's alive," she said relieved.
-
Meltharius managed to stand, his arm felt like every bone in it was broken. He let his broken shield fall to the ground and looked around. The last of the dragons seemed to be retreating into the night, closely persued by the eagles. He smiled and looked around, but he could see none of the others.
Blaen signalled to a ranger who stood leaning against the wall, the ranger nodded and disappeared into the keep.
-
(is it ok if we wait for megz, crazed one who plays legolas to catch up? :-\ :))
-
(Thanks and YES I AM CRAZED!! :D Donno how to get myself back into this!!)
legolas quickly forgot about the shooting pains in his arm when he bolted over towards his Metharuis, looking relifed to see her was alive "You alright?" he asked him, then turned to Blaen "What do we do now?!" he asked not really sure himself.
-
"Eleclya," Amarie said, gently slapping Eleclya's cheeks to get her back to full consciousness.
-
*Nienna looked up, seeing that most of the Dragons were retreating she gave a sigh of relief and sheathed her sword. She had recieved many wounds but all she cared about now was finding the others. She began to walk through the bodies hoping to find any sight of anyone alive*
*Eleclya slowly opened her eyes dazily and looked up* "Amarie?" *She muttered weakly*
-
Meltharius grunted and propped himself up against a wall. "I'll live" he grumbled.
Blaen turned to Legolas. "Not a clue my friend, not a clue" he said sternly.
-
cassandra looked up as the dragon swerved in the air and turned to face her, it then again started to decline rapidly heading straight for her, cassandra unsheathed her sword and it and the dragon collided, cassandra fell to the ground as a hot liquid hit her face, her sword had penetrated the dragons skin atleast! she got wearily to her feet to see the dragon getting to it's not too far off, it shook it's head, slightly dazed before fixating it's glare on her, "oh d@mn!" said cassandra as her mouth dropped slightly :P
-
"Elecyla?!" Sam asked, kneeling beside Amarie, having cleared all the rubble off of her. He bit his lip, unsure of how hurt Elecyla was hurt. Well, at least she was concious now, he thought to himself, that's a good start. Sam looked up at Amarie "Can I do anything to help?" He asked
-
"Yes, go and get some water, " Amarie said, a very professional healer at the moment. "And Sam," she added, "Thanks for your help - I couldn't have done it without you." She smiled at him and turned back to Eleclya.
"Are you hurt anywhere?" She asked while she was examining her friend. Asking "Does this hurt." in intervalls. After quite a while she sat back and looked satisfied at Eleclya. "Nothing broken, no inner wounds, just some scratches. You'll be fine old friend." she grinned, then added very serious, "You were very lucky indeed."
-
Sam smiled slightly, not really believing hte last few words Amarie had said. If he had been faster, Elecyla wouldn't have even been under that rubble. Lost in his own thoughts, he hurried off to follow Amarie's orders. Sam soon found a basin, and filled it up. Careful not to spill it, he brought it back to Amarie, setting it beside her "Anything else?" He asked
-
Legolas looked sorrowly down at all the dead around him, not just dragons and dark riders some he had fort with along time ago, back in an age. Something dawned on him "Where's cassondra?" he said wided eyed, running in the opposite direction looking for her, wincing as his arm swung with every step to keep his balance.
-
*Eleclya looked up at Sam and Amarie and smiled weakly* "Thankyou" *She said gratefully as she sat up, wincing as she did so, she had many wounds and bruises but she knew she would be ok. She glanced over at Sam* "I don't think anything else is needed, I'm fine"
-
Amarie helped Eleclya to her feet. "Well, " she started, "Seems like we won the day..." Sadly she looked around.
"Do you think the others are ok? They might need help...." Again her gaze wondered over what she could see, scanning for friends.
"I should go and see if my help is needed." she said finally and with a smile for Sam and Eleclya she slowly made her way through the bodies, checking as she had before whether they were alive and could be saved and marking them for the healers to see.
-
the dragon facing cassandra swiped at her with it's claws, cassandra was rushed to the floor with her slashes across her stomach
-
Legolas ran towards the sounds of dragons fearing the worst. As he saw the blood stained clothes that layed on cassondra's body he bolted over to her, shielding her from the dragons fury "I WILL PUSH YOU DOWN INTO THE FIRE DEPTHS OF HELL!!" he yelled at it hitting it off with his sword, feeling cassondras blood sock into the back of his clothes.
-
( :P)
cassandra raised her head to see legolas, she slowly stumbled to her feet and picked up her sword with a shaking hand, "legolas, be careful," she said as she took a tighter hold on her sword, she came to stand by his side as the dragon roared angrily before them
-
Blaen stood on the battlements and looked around. The morning sun was rising and as the light shone across the city he could see the extent of the damage. Surely this bloodshed might even rival the battle of the Pellanor fields. Blaen's face turned stoney as he remember fightign alongside Aragorn in the old days. But the kingdom seemed to be falling down around him now. He sighed and turned to Meltharius who was still slumped against the wall. "The last of the dragons are being mopped up, soon we can get your wounds treated" he said.
Meltharius looked up at the Ranger. "Many have died this night...I fear we will not have enough strength for the final push. But if we do not capatlise the enemy will soon bolster his forces and defeat will be assured. I have grown tired of bloodshed, I have seen too many of those I love die. Gondor and Rohan at war was bad enough. But now the strength of men, the same men that defeated Sauron the Deciever, seems to ebb and wain. Few elves remains and the dwarves have become even more reclusive. I fear the world may once again be engulfe in darkness" he sighed.
-
*Eleclya sighed as she looked around at the devastating sight of death surrounding her. She glanced over at Amarie marking the bodies* "I'll go see if I can find the others" *She said, then she turned to Sam* "Do you want to help me?" *She asked with a weak smile*
*Nienna had so far found no hope of survival, the dead laid all around her, men, elves, dragons, the evil beasts that had numerous orc features. The sight was unlike anything she had ever seen before but she tried to keep her mind off it, hope that somewhere in this collapsed city she would find her friends, alive and well*
-
Sam nodded, in reply to Eleclya's question. "Are you sure you're alright?" He asked, and glanced up at the rising sun. The Hobbits would be coming soon... he hoped that not much more blod would be shed. Sam gripped his sword tightly, feeling almost sick as he looked around and saw so many bodies.
-
*Eleclya smiled weakly at Sam* "I am fine, nothing but a scratch and couple of bruises" *She said. Then she saw Sam was rather distracted by the devastation around them and her smile faded, it was an awful sight, but Eleclya knew they had to find the others* "We mustn't waste anymore time, we must find the others" *She said then she began to walk carefully through the rubble and bodies*
-
Amarie contiunued to work. Her heart was heavy and she felt like screaming, but nevertheless she went steadily on. She could see other healers moving between the dead and wounded now and she saw the people she had marked being picked up and carried toward the houses of healing.
After a long while, she bumped into someone. It was Nienna, obviously looking for her friends. When she was close enough to be heard, she said "Hello Nienna, if you are looking for some survivors, Eleclya and Sam are one level down." she tried to smile encourigingly, but did not quite manage.
-
*Ninna attempted a smile but it was more than a flinch. She nodded, saying nothing in the deathly silence around them and headed towards the stairs. She suddenly heard a Dragon not too far off and instantly unsheathed her sword. She ran in it's direction and as she turned a corner, avoiding all the rubble she saw Cassandra and Legolas tackling the last Dragon in Minas Tirith* "Cassandra! Legolas!" *She shouted as she ran as fast as she could towards them. The Dragon noticed her presence, but didn't seem to care much, it focussed it's attention mainly on the two infront, Cassandra and Legolas*
-
Sam followed Eleclya silently, staring down at his hands, not wanting to look around, for what he knew he would see. He had never seen anything like this before, and it chilled him to the bone. He knew they would find the others.. they would be alive... they HAD to be! Sam finally looked up, and looked around, looking for the others. He saw two small figues fighting a dragon, and looked around for the other ones... but no, that was the last dragon! A small smile appeared on his lips, that was a good thing, surely! He wondered who the two figures were, and if anyone was going to help them. They looked like they needed it
-
Legolas standind infront of cassondra, his arm throbing deeply he swong his sword the best he could towards the dragon. he couldnt hear the overs comign to help, his mind focused on the dragons baring teeth trying to rip cassondra and Himself to pieces.
-
Amarie ran after Nienna, her sword drawn. She did not rember where she had left her bow. She saw the dragon and Legolas and Cassandra fighting. Legolas was handeling his sword awquardly, he seemed hurt. Cassandra did not seem too fresh, either. She hoped she could do something to help.
-
( :P)
as the dragon took advantage of legolas' weak arm and went to bite him cassandra swung her sword, intercepting the dragon's teeth, it recoiled it's head glaring fiercely at cassandra, cassandra stood her ground, the dragon raised up patronisingly, cassandra watched the dragon's movement, never losing eye contact and when the dragon swiftly shot down at legolas she pushed him out of the way in time, unfortunatly getting the full attack of the blow
-
Legolas watched Cassondra fall down, however it seemed to be in slow motion from where he was layed on the floor unable to move his legs at the time. Crawling over to her side he looked down at her, she was covered in blood and frozen for ashort while, he shook her gentaly causing himself to get himself in her own blood. Suddnely the dragon swong down with his razor sharp claws once again, Legolas threw his shield over them both even tho it had a huge gash in it already. He still couldnt see or hear the others coming to help so stuggled on wishing for it to stop hoping with all his might that cassondra was alright...
-
Blaen looked into the distance and then back at Meltharius. "We must free Aragorn from the spell place upon him but I knwo not where Nienna, Cassondra and Eleclya are" he said to the elf.
-
*Eleclya glanced nervously back and forth from the Dragon and Cassandra and Legolas, they needed help, great help. She attempted to distract the Dragon, calling at it, but it was no use, it seemed only interested in the two. She had no choice. She closed her eyes and softly spoke the ancient language which triggered her powers. Her eyes snapped open, however they were not the same but an icy white. The Dragon suddenly looked up at her and snarled, but before it could attack her, Eleclya had formed a bright white orb in her left hand and just as the Dragon moved towards her she threw it as hard as she could straight into it's chest. It stopped just before the orb collided with it and then it flew straight into the back wall, knocking it dead. For a moment it was quiet, Eleclya's eyes returned to normal, but then there was a rumble and the wall where the Dragon had hit began to quake. It split up the side swiftly and then the wall began to collaspe, starting to bring the rest of the city down with it. Eleclya watched it with horror and quickly ran towards Cassandra and Legolas and knelt down by them* "Legolas! Help me, we have to get Cassandra and the others out of here" *She said and she took Cassandra's left arm and pulled it around her neck* "Come on! There's no time to waste!"
*Nienna watched as the wall began to tumble down and ran to aid Eleclya and Legolas but Eleclya turned to her* "Take Amarie and Sam, find Meltharius and Blaen as fast as you can and get out of here! We can help Cassandra" *Eleclya said with urgency. Nienna nodded and ran towards Amarie and Sam* "We need to find Meltharius and Blaen! Come on" *She said as she went past them, hoping that she and the others would somehow find them in time..*
-
Amarie started running again, fearfully, looking around at all the wounded, who would probably not survive if the city came down. Silent tears streamed down her face as she ran. She could not believe the injustice of fate, or of the Valar or whoever had left them alone in this.
After a while of searching Amarie could see Meltharius and Blean in a distance. "Over there," she shouted to Nienna and ran in the direction of the two, waving to get their attention.
-
Legolas swiftly picked Cassondra up with Eleclya, not saying anything, not having the time to think just run and hope the people left behind would be able to get themselves to safty or die quickly rather then to be put threw pain.
-
Sam watched the wall crumble, frozen to the spot. He knew he should run for his life, but he found he couldn't move. People were pushing past him, frantically running to get out of the city, but he stayed still, staring up at the walls.
-
*Nienna stopped when she saw Meltharius and Blaen, she was relieved to see them both alive, but as she looked behind she saw Sam did not follow them. She didn't hesitate and ran back towards him. She saw him stood motionless as the rocks came tumbling down* "Sam!" *She shouted as she reached him* "We've got to get out of here!"
*Eleclya lead the way through the city, taking a short cut to save all of their lives. As they rushed down some steps, rocks came jumping down after them swiftly. Eleclya ran as fast as she could, being as careful with Cassandra as her speed would let her. She lead them into the under ground of Minas Tirith and just up ahead there was a tunnel that lead to a thick brick door towards the back end of the city. As they reached it she had no time for locks, she put her hand over it and whispered something in elvish and the door clicked open. With Legolas' help they got outside and managed to reach the cave they took shelter in the night before. As they got there, they put Cassandra carefully on the floor and Eleclya gave Legolas a worried glance, too breathless from running for words*
-
When she reached Meltharius and Blean, Amarie quickly related the situation to them and, seeing the tumbling rocks around them, they started leading them out of the city imediately. Amarie shot a worried glance behind her and saw, that Nienna and Sam were farther away than she could remember. She waved and tried to shout a direction, but did not know if she had been hurt. So the only thing she could do was follow Blean and Meltharius and pray that Nienna and Sam would make it.
-
Sam and Nienna seemed to be on their own now, all the ones who could run had ran. He glanced once more up at the wall, paling slightly. Then he turned, looking up at Nienna "Sorry" He muttered, "Come on, let's go!" He wasn't sure if they would make it. And it was all his fault. Sam cursed himself mentally, knowing that if they didn't get out, he would blame himself for ever
-
*Nienna smiled very weakly down at Sam and took his hand to aid him if need be. They both ran as quickly as they could. Nienna lead them down a stone, spiral stair way, going further and further down into the city. Nienna wasn't familiar with the lay-out of Minas Tirith, like Eleclya or any of the others, she had been there 3 times at most and just hoped the main gate wasn't block so they could make their exit there*
(Me thinks we better wait for the others to post now)
-
cassandra stirred slightly, she could feel her arm and body stinging, almost burning, she groaned as she regained conciousness and slowly opened her eyes, "hey," she said weakly
-
Meltharius got back onto his feet, supported by Blaen. "Where is Nienna?" he asked simply as they moved.
-
Legolas nelt down by her side and took hold of her hand "Your alright.." he said with relief "I thought we'd lost you then" he said then remembered the pain in his arm, his whole right sleeve was soaked in blood and he feared removing his armor on his forearm because of what it would reveal. He looked at Cassondra and kisses her gentaly "I would never have forgiven myself if you had...well you know" he looked up at Eleclya "If any of you had left me..Iv had to much sorrow in my life I dont need anymore"
(THANKS FOR THAT SAM! ;))
-
(*cough*Nienna is still inside!*cough*)
Sam couldn't see anyone, and suddenly, a large avalanche of rocks fell down infront of them, blocking their way out. He glanced up nervously at Nienna, not sure of where they could go. He didn't know Minas Tirith at all, had never really explored it. He looked around in every direction, but couldn't see the others. "Where do we go now?" He asked frantically to Nienna.
-
(Yar, tis Eleclya your with, Megs ;))
*Eleclya smiled weakly and put a comforting arm on Legolas' shoulder* "It's all right, my good friend" *She said, then she got to her feet, her energy was low, she could feel it. The power she had used to kill the Dragon had taken up a lot of her strength, like it normally did, she just hoped the others knew where to come and that they all made it out alive. She felt incredibly guilty, she had caused the downfall of the city with her powers, killing most of the people who were still alive. She sighed sorrowfully as she surveyed the ruins of Minas Tirith from the opening of the cave*
*Nienna's eyes dashed around for an exit, rubble was all around them, except from a small gap to their side. She bolted straight for it, pulling Sam along with her. She had to crouch to get through but it brought them through a passageway and out onto a clear level which had not yet fallen to pieces*
-
cassandra slowly sat up, she felt so stupid, she had set out to aid eleclya with her powers and whilst conserving them had foolishly got hurt, her glance fell across legolas' arm, "legolas, let me help you," she said gently "does it hurt?"
-
(where am i? I havnt been online as much lately)
-
(I noticed :P. Urmmm...Me thinks your with Amarie, but she needs to post and I can't do anything till Samwise posts ::))
-
(you are running with Amarie form the collapsing city - we are headed for the cave you camped in before you entered Minas Tirith. :))
Finally Amarie, Meltharius and Blean reached the cave. Amarie was glad to see almost all her friends there. I hope Nienna and Sam are all right she thought.
When she had caught her breath she said. "We lost Nienna and Sam, but I'm sure they found some way out. Is there any way I can help any of you - are you injured?"
-
"Is Nienna is still out there then I am going back" Meltharius said indignately. He made to leave the cave but Blaen stopped him.
"You are going nowhere my friend" Blaen said to the elf. "Amarie, Meltharius' arm is shattered, is there anything you can do for him?" he asked her.
-
Amarie nodded, and slowly approached Metharius. She took his arm in gently between her hands and felt the injury. She visualized, like she had learned in long studies the bone mending and she began humming the ancient incantation she had used so often. She felt the engergy directed at the wound and she felt the broken parts mend, slowly.
She felt drained, yet, she did not stop until the arm was perfectly healed - then she tore a large piece of cloth from her shirt and bound Metharius's arm securly against his body. "The broken parts are healed," she said, " but it was shattered so badly that you should not move it for a few days, then it'll be as good as new."
She turned around and sat down in a corner of the cave. She burried her head on her knees. She felt exhausted and dizzy, but when she thought about all those who had died today, all those who could not be saved any more, she could not hold the tears back any longer. Silently she cried, not noticing the others any more for the time being.
-
Legolas looked at Cassondra "If you can count it's so painful its gone numb then yes" he joked and slowly removed his armor. Wincing as he did he could see blood everywhere, and as he moved his clothes out of the way he could see his bone through the deep wound, slit across his arm "Not soo good" he tryed to show he wasn't too bothered by it but couldn't control this too well "How am I ment to sort this out!!" he looked down at it, the blood had slowled down and the flesh was a strange pinky-yellow colour.
-
Sam hurried beside Nienna, not sure on where they were going. Any moment now, he was sure of it, the whole city would fall. There was no-one around, no-one whatsoever. Sam just had to hope that Nienna would be able to find a way out by sheer luck and guesswork, for he had absolutely no idea where they were right now.
-
*Nienna fought for breath, it seemed to escape her. She couldn't feel her legs, they were numb with pain and exhaustion. But she carried on, she was the only one who could lead her and Sam out of the city, which was now a maze of the dead and rubble. Thoughts flashed through her mind, of her friends, her happy memories and Meltharius and the one thing she knew was she had to get her and Sam out. She pushed herself on with new determination and managed to find an almost clear stairway. They ran down it, Nienna picked up a discarded shield and pulled Sam closer to her. She put it over their heads as bits of rubble flew down crashing onto them.
The stairway seemed to last forever, but eventually brought them out onto the ground level. The streets seemed ever more familiar as they went on and as they dashed around the corner there were the gates up ahead. Nienna gave a brief sigh of relief and continued to run, big boulders and crumbled parts of the city chased down on after them and they only had a matter of time to run or else they would be crushed under them. As they emerged out of the gates, Nienna, along with Sam swung round to the side of the wall as the rocks came flooding out of the city, just missing them*
*Eleclya looked up from her sorrowful gaze as the rocks came tumbling down out of the gates. That was the end of Minas Tirith and she felt a tears prickle in the back of her eyes as Sam and Nienna had not made it to the cave, but as Eleclya scanned the outside of the city with her elf eyes she saw two figures, Sam and Nienna. A smile broke out onto her face and she turned to the others* "They made it out! Sam and Nienna! They're alive!"
-
cassandra sat fully up, looking out to the cave entrance to see her old friend nienna and of course sam, she then turned to amarie, "can you heal him?" she asked hoping she could help legolas
-
Sam crouched down low, beside Nienna, trying to hide from the rocks. He was worn out, gasping for breath, amazed that they had got out. He felt so guilty though, he could have easily kiled Nienna and himself. He didn't know where the others were, he prayed that they were alive.
-
Amarie heard Eleclya say "They made it out! Sam and Nienna! They're alive!" and looked up. More tears were coming, this time tears of joy- but she was too exhausted to get up. So she waited, looking hopefully to the mouth of the cave, waiting for Nienna and Sam to enter.
-
*Nienna looked down at Sam panting for breath* "We did it...We made it out" *She muttered, feeling quite amazed. But now they had to find the others, she glanced around 'where would they be?' she asked herself. Then her gaze fell across the opening of the cave where she saw two figures. A smile erupted onto her face* "They're over there, in the cave!" *She said, then she began walking, but she was very weak, every step was torture*
-
"Nienna, wait!" Sam called, getting to his feet. He could obviously see it hurt Nienna to walk, and it was the same for him slightly. "Maybe you should rest for a moment. We're safe here and the cave is way over there" He explained, walking by her side. He put a comforting hand on her arm, "We made it this far. We can't have you collapsing, trying to go to fast to get to the others." Sam smiled slightly, a smile that didn't reach his eyes
-
*Nienna looked down at Sam and smiled, he was right but she was so determind to reach the cave* "We're safer there, safer to rest and be cared for. I don't want to wait any longer to see my friends, even if every step almost kills me" *She said and she carried on going. She didn't want to stay at the walls of Gondor, for all she knew the evil creatures that rode the Dragons may well not be dead, some of them anyway and there was no counting on when there would be another attack. Nienna knew they would be sheltered and could easily hide in the cave*
-
(Awww AWWW its me :lk: How Cute! :P)
Legolas looked up at Neinna and Sam from a distance "There alive" he smiled broudly, his heart being wildly with relife "There really alive" he said with tears in his eyes "My worst fears never came true...Your all here" he was now talking so fast it was mumbled, he was soo happy to see that everyone that he cared about so dearly was okay.
-
Sam nodded, and continued walking beside Nienna. If she was to continue, he would. He gazed down at the ground, not daring to look up at Nienna. What if she never forgave him? She risked her life to save his. It was all his fault she was even in this state. He cursed himself mentally, though staying silent on the outside. He wondered slightly why the Hobbits had not come. What if they had been attacked on the way here? Sam was sure they wouldn't back out once they had given their word, Hobbits just didn't do that. That could only mean one thing. Sam's hands clenched at his side, not wanting to think of such things. It couldn't be true coult it?
-
*Eleclya smiled as Nienna and Sam reached the cave, but thought it best not to say anything. They had just been through a lot and there was no words to describe the loss and sorrow that mounted up in Eleclya's heart but also the relief of seeing all her friends safe again. She gave a tiresome sigh and walked off towards the back of the cave where she sat down, flooding in her own thoughts and feelings*
-
Amarie sighed with relief as Nienna and Sam finally came into the cave. She smiled at them through now happy tears. Then wiped them away and went over to the group. She swollowed hard and then said, trying to smile, " Anyone need help? Is there still anything you might need a healer for?"
-
cassandra smiled to see her oldest friend and sam arrive at the cave, she then turned to amarie as legolas' arm concerned her, "can you heal this?" she asked
-
"I can try...," Amarie said, while approacing Legolas. Carefully, she took Legolas's arm into her hands. She heard him wince nd looking at the arm she knew why. "This will need longer..." she murmured. Carefully she released the arm and took out a pouch from under her shrit. From it she extracted several herbs, crushed them and put them into another little leather pouch. She added some water and started mixing it with the herbs. Then she returned to Legolas. "This will certainly hurt, but you need to leave the paste - it will extract any dirt or puss that might be in there. Then, when it is absolutely clean I can heal the rest with magic." She held the arm tightly now, spreading the paste thickly. then she ripped again at her shirt, gaining two large pieces of cloth. With them she went over to the fire, took a metal cooking pot that had been lying beside it and filled that with water. She put it on the fire and helped the cooking with a little magic. After a while she took out the pieces of cloth, they were perfectly dry. With them she went over to Legolas and put one tightly over the wound. With the other one she bound the arm securely to his breast. "That is it for now. Sorry, but I can't give you anything against the pain. I'd have to gather more herbs for that. If you do need something please don't hesitate to tell me though, I will look for somthing then."
Without another word, she sat down again in the corner. This last feat of magic had exhausted her further. She just mangaed to sit down where she had sat before and closed her eyes. Then she knew nothing more.
-
Legolas dealt with the pain, he watched her make up the herbal mixture and place it across his arm. Yes it was painful but it wasn't as bad if he didn't think about, so he went and sat himself down next to Cassondra "You okay?" he asked her awkardly, before looking down at his arm strung across his body "This feels so weird" he smiled then his face turned to sadness "I thought I lose you back then....I didn't think you was going to make it...I couldn't...I wouldn't of been...." he paused "What I'm trying to say is... I Love you" he didn't quite no what kind of love her ment, his mind was spinning wildly.
-
(awwww!!!! :D)
cassandra smiled at legolas, taking his hand in hers, she turned to him and with her other hand she gently stroked his face, keeping eye contact; "i love you too and don't worry, you can't get rid of me that easily,"
-
(We really need to wait for Chris to catch up now!...And woo!! 100th page! :D)
-
(holy cow...I'm lost, tis my fault though, I should be on more often :P)
Meltharius upon seeing Nienna enter ran to her and embraced her. "I thought I had lost you" he whispered in her ear.
Blaen skulked around near the back of the cave. "What of the city?" he asked forlornly.
-
(Yesh, yesh you should! :P But I'll forgive you, you do have exams very soon so we'll make sure you don't get left behind :))
*Nienna smiled as Meltharius took her in his arms* "It's OK, I'm here now" *She said softly to him feeling a big relief to see him and all the others alive and well*
*Eleclya peered up at Blaen through the darkness of the back end of the cave and sighed sadly* "The city, for now, is lost. There is, however a possibility it can be rebuilt after Rhinvan is killed but it shall take many men and time...Which is at the moment quite impossible" *She explained*
-
Sam stayed at the mouth of the cave, staring out over the land. Where were all the Hobbits? They should be here by now. He fiddled nervously with the hem of his shirt, not listening to the others at all. All he knew was that everyone was safe, there was nothing else he could do right now that would be of any help. He just hoped that whereever they were going now, they would be able to go the way the Hobbits would've come from the Shire. Then he could see for sure what had happened to them
-
"Dammit! Why must Gondor always suffer these tragedies!" Blaen growled. He bent down and scooped up his scabbard from the floor and drew his sword. "And now it looks as though we've lost our King and our city" he sighed.
-
*Eleclya sighed sadly* "Gondor hasn't seen the best of it's days, but it will. The future is bright...Aslong as we can defeat Rhinvan" *She said, her voice turning cold and slightly uncertain. She knew the chances of defeating Rhinvan were very weak and even if they found him they probably wouldn't have the strength or numbers to go into another war*
-
Amarie woke up to Eleclya's words. "Tell me more about this Rhinvan," she said, suddendly curious. She had not heard of a person of that name before.
-
Legolas watched Cassondra, smiling, shaking slightly while he looked into her eyes. He gentaly lent in and kissed her, placing his hand across her face, stroking her cheek with his thumb. He pulled away hoping she ment the same kind of love he did, before smiling and walking outside for some fresh air, looking at the fallen city and the sky beginning to clear and darken he watched it all...slowly sitting down and resting his arm againest his knees the other against his chest strapped up in the sling.
(Aww Sweet! Cheesey but sweet!)
-
cassandra smiled as she got to her feet and watched legolas walk out to look ovr the remains of the city, she looked across at nienna, glad to see her old friend smile before turning to listen to eleclya
-
*Eleclya sat up slightly so her face was in the light as she surveyed everyone in the cave* "Rhinvan was once in league with The dark lord, Sauron, but when the war of the ring took place, Rhinvan was at his weakest state and hid in the depths of the misty mountain throughout the war. He did not emerge until the ultimate weapon to control all Dragons came into his possession. He regained his strength and brought back the power of the weapon and used it for his own liking. Word reached my ears of this before he began using it but the thought passed out of my head, I didn't worry about him too much, I knew he was weak, but it seems he has built armies and now has the Dragons of Middle Earth at his call" *She paused for a moment* "The only way we can kill Rhinvan is to take the weapon and destroy it, only then will we have the power to succeed. The only problem is finding him. His where-abouts is a mystery to me, but I sense he is not far from here"
-
(hey guys, just wanted to let you know i'm off to cornwall for a week so i won't be online, if someone would please move my character i'd be eternally greatful, thanks)
-
(Yeah, I'll keep your character moving Jess! Hope you have a good time on holiday! :D And we'll make sure we don't do too much without you)
-
Anarnyi jumped down with another shot of an arrow, her brother ran up behind her and told her that was the last dragon. "OK that was the last dragon, " She told everyone "But I think something else might be on its way..."
-
(looks like you haven't done much without me :P ::)
well i'm back now for 5 days atleast and then me and megz go to spain :D)
-
(Yay! You're back! :D Well, I want to get this moving a bit before we go then I can ask the mods to keep it up here while we're away :).
So shall I move this on to the next morning?)
-
(yeah can do :D)
-
(Yeah, fine with me!)
-
*Neinna awoke the next morning with the sun shining in through the mouth of the cave and onto her face. She stirred slightly, seeing everyone else asleep around her except Eleclya who was still sat in the same place she had been last night*
*Eleclya held a look of concentration on her face, she was quite far away and deep in thought but as she sensed movement she jumped slightly and saw that Nienna was awake. She did her best to smile but her lips hardly moved*
-
Legolas had fallen asleep outside where he had been sat throughout the night. The sun fell against his face causing him to stir and wake up, yawning he went to stretch but remembered that his arm was still in his sling. He had never been unable to use his arm and this made it awkawrd to do everyday things, annoying him slightly he stood up, brushed himself down and walked around to stretch his legs.
Moments later he looked inside the cave to see that Nienna and Eleclya were awake, smiling at them he turned to the others. It had finally hit him what had happened over the last few days, the huge battle some of his long dear friends dieing, Miths falling and most of all telling Cassondra how he left it over whelmed him. Legolas turned back outside for some more fresh air and go over in his head what had happened.
-
cassandra stirred as the light struck her face, she slowly lifted her head and opened her eyes, looking around; she looked at eleclya obviously troubled, she got to her feet, stepping over the others and made her way over to her, "hey, you ok?" she asked gently
-
*Eleclya looked up at Cassandra and forced a weak smile to appear on her weary face* "Yeah, I'm fine" *She said with reassurance in her tone but she was in fear of what was to come. Her mind was full of questions and she kept drifting in and out of thought about what their journey ahead will have in store for them*
(Jess(broken dreamer) and me will be going on holiday for two weeks as of tomorrow. We may be online before we set off in the evening but I doubt I'll have time to post this so I'm posting it now. We will be coming online when we get the chance but I'll post in the holiday topic to keep this up while we're away! Don't post too much without us and have fun while we're away! :P)
-
(*BUMP* Back from Spain now so hopefully we can move this on a bit. Post people! :P)
-
cassandra stayed by eleclya and after a moment's silent she spoke softly, "are we to search for rhinvan today or mourn for the ruins that now stand?"
-
(OK I had exams and wasnt on this for a while so whats happened?)
-
(It's morning and we're all in a cave just outside Minas Tirith. You can come along and bring yourself in there if you like :))
"We should search for Rhinvan" *Eleclya said strongly, trying to put aside her sorrow and fear* "The sooner we set out the better. He could be anywhere and sitting here drowning in our grief isn't going to help us find him"
-
Meltharius sighed. "Rhinvan will not be easy to find. After all he wishes not to be." he said. Blaen had disappeared in the night but Meltharius did not worry about his friend, after all he knew from past experiences that it is sometimes good to be alone with your grief.
-
Samwise sat at the back of the cave, his knees pulled up to his chest. He stared sadly down at the floor, though still listening to the others. He wanted to go past the Shire, to see if his worst nightmares were true, but Sam didn't dare to suggest it to the others. He was of no use to them, maybe he should leave. He had been nothing but trouble this whole time. Sam got to his feet
-
Legolas walked back over to everyone else, but quietly he sat down against a rock watching everyone trying to take everything in. It was happening so quickly he didnt really no how to react.
-
Meltharius put his hand on Sam's shoulder. "Go if you wish Sam" he said understanding how he must feel. "But it will be much duller without you. And if you've passed through the fires of Mordor and survived than you can survive anything my friend" he continued smiling.
-
Sma jumped slightly as Meltharius put his hand on his shoulder, having not expected him. He looked up, not even finding the strength to smile back. "I do not worry whether I will survive or not" Sam said softly, "It is the others back home I worry from. Why didn't they turn up? They were definetly coming" Sam dropped his gaze back down to the ground, trying to decide what to do. Should he go home or stay? If he went back, and everyone was gone, who would he be able to turn to then?
-
*Eleclya seemed to drift off into thought again, wondering, questioning herself, could we possibly take a detour? she thought to herself. She knew the Shire meant a lot to Sam and she knew if she was in his position she'd want to go back, but she could see his hesitation, he didn't want to leave the rest. She surveyed Sam with a small smile* "We can take a detour that way if you like, Samwise. I know how concerned you are about them" *She said calmly, then she got to her feet* "We don't know the whereabouts of Rhinvan anyway so we may as well start looking for him near The Shire. He probably wouldn't expect us to go there anyway, seen as it's such a long way from here" *She said. She put her mind in Rhinvan's for a moment, thinking about what he'd do and Eleclya knew it, they were to search in the places he thought they were unlikely to go to and The Shire was one of those places*
-
Sam looked up as Eleclya spoke, and a small smile appeared on his face. "Really? I mean... if it's any trouble, you don't have to take a detour. I don't want to be any more trouble than I have already been." He still remembered how he had nearly killed Nienna, by staying still in the city of Gondor instead of running.
-
cassandra looked up at eleclya, understanding her way of thinking, "i think it's a good idea to go to the shire,"
-
WOW! Huge RP!!
Made this one Sticky ;D ;D
-
(Woo! Stickyness! :D)
*Nienna nodded in agreement to Eleclya's suggestion* "We must start searching somewhere for Rhinvan and what better place than The Shire?" *She said. She looked over at Sam and smiled encouragingly, she knew the feeling of being worried about friends and family, although she didn't have any other than the people who were in the cave. She sighed sadly, remembering the news that her family had died the last time she was in the Shire, but she pushed those thoughts aside, we must concentrate on finding Rhinvan she thought to herself, the sooner this is over, the better*
"We'll prepare and set off as soon as possible" *Eleclya said, looking around slightly in case anybody objected*
-
Meltharius paused for thought a moment. "Does anyone actually know where that maggot Rhinvan is?" he asked.
-
*Eleclya sighed sadly* "Unfortunately, no" *She replied gravely* "I'm afraid it'll be like finding a needle in a haystack, if not harder. I know Rhinvan is in touch with magical powers too and will do anything to prevent us from finding him. It's not going to be easy, but then again, nothing ever is"
-
Sam listened to what everyone had to say. He was glad they wanted to come to the Shire with him. He wanted to go now, as soon as possible, but he knew he would have to wait, for whenever the others were ready. Sam smiled, a smile that didn't reach his eyes, and prayed that he would find good news when he got back to the Shire
-
cassandra got to her feet, she'd grown rather restless, she wondered if they'd have to travel on foot all the way back to the shire and with everyone weighed down by grief with little food she couldn't see it being the best of plans
-
(I am sooo incredibly lost but WOW IM IN AN RP THATS STICKY!! THATS SOOOO COOL! sorry for spamming but i need an undate people! I cant post I donno whats happening!)
-
(everyone's waking up and resting, still grieving for the fall of the city, everyone's decided to go to the shire though for ol' sam :s: )
-
(Yeah, we haven't done that much without you :8o. But, yeah, seen as Chris is in the Big Brother house I think we best wait for him until we move on :))
-
Sorry everyone, couldn't find the forum for awhile - but am back.
Amarie had been listening to the conversation, but after awhile she got up and went to the mouth of the cave, looking out onto the destroyed city. She still could not quite comprehend it and she wanted someone to pay for this. ...
-
cassandra wandered to the front of the cave and stood beside amarie, looking out upon the ruins of the city, she then glanced at amarie, "you ok?" she asked, brushing a whisp of dark hair ehind elven ears

( Thanks!! :D)
Legolas walked back towards the cave still deep in thought. He had been thinking about everyone who he had lost resently...because of this he had gone off for time alone to grieve. Slowly walking up towards the cave he saw Cassondra and Amarie talking amongst thier selves, so descided to leave them be. He sat on a tall rock near by looking over the horizon, he took out his sword and began to clean in with a old piece of rag he carryed with him.
-
"You might want to use something of better quality to clean that Legolas" said Meltharius who put his hand in his pocket and threw a silk cloth and some oil to Legolas.
-
Legolas smiled as he cort the oil and the silken cloth "Thanks" he began to clean his sword with that "So...have we desided on anything yet?" he asked looking over to the horizen.
-
"We're leaving as soon as everybody's ready" *Eleclya said from just behind Legolas and Meltharius* "I should hope that isn't too long"
*Nienna remained in the cave, gathering the rest of her things, which over the months, had lessened greatly. She looked around, everybody else seemed to be outside except Samwise and herself, she glanced across at the Hobbit and gave him a small smile* "Are you looking forward to getting back to The Shire?" *She asked him, knowing that Eleclya's offer to go there may be a risky one, but it was vital. Most of the Men had been wiped out from battling and the ones that remained would probably hide out until their days end, Elves were now gone, the Dwarves still cared nothing for the troubles of Middle Earth and dwelled deep in the moutains, Hobbit's seemed to be now, their last hope of bringing good once again to Middle Earth, although Nienna knew, to ask them to aid their small group was probably a road to certain death*
-
Sam looked up as Nienna spoke, and nodded to her question. "I think so. I just hope nothing has happened.... I thought they were coming to help, they said they would. And we don't normally go back on our word." He stood up, all his things in a small bag, which he slung over his shoulder. Sam moved nearer to Nienna, still quite shy with the Elves. "I'm really, really sorry about what happened before. Something just came over me..." Sam said
-
"It's all right, Sam" *Nienna replied reassuringly* "All that matters is that we both got out alive and well" *She reached down and took her bag where she packed all her things* "All I worry about is how we are now to get to The Shire, it will be a long and tiresome journey on foot, we will need Horses if we want to restore our energy for whatever is ahead of us"
-
"The journey is long. But we are within sight of our goal, we must not dishearten now" Meltharius said. He stood upon a boulder and surveyed the area with his elven eyes. "Horses may be difficult to procure" he muttered.
-
cassandra turned and picked up her bag, it's contents diminished since she'd set out, now she came to think of it she'd seen no-one eat or even drink for a long time, she just hoped that they could soon leave for the shire and restock their supplies soon, she nodded at blaen, agreeing finding horses for all of them would prove difficult, "could there not be another way to get to the shire? is our only hope on foot?" she asked, hoping for another answer
-
*The sides of Eleclya's lips curved very slightly into a weak smile* "We won't be travelling on foot and I wouldn't worry about transport, I have something sorted" *She told them* "You'll find out what I mean soon"
-
(hey guys - sorry I didn't post much lately - and .... bad news, I won't be able to post much or at all in August. I'm going to California on holiday and I'm not sure whether I'll be able to use the internet at all... Please, just take Amarie along and whenever you need to write for her, just do so.... :) See you all in Septenber and have a nice time until then!)
Amarie looked at Eleclya, puzzeled. "Are you sure?..." she asked carefully. Then fell silent and waited what would come next.
-
(Awwww! We'll miss you! :( I hope you have a good time anyway and I'll make sure that Amarie gets moved on for you. When you come back feel free to send me an IM and I'll explain what has happened)
"Quite sure" *Eleclya said, her smile growing slightly* "I think everyone's about ready now so I'll go get my things then we can leave" *She disappeared back into the cave, glancing at Sam and Nienna* "We'll be setting off shortly" *She informed them before picking her small bag of belongings and emerging from the cave again. She stopped just in front of the others and concentrated, closing her eyes. After a moment she opened them and turned to the the small group* "They'll be here soon"
-
Legolas wacthed everyone eggerly, he finsihed of cleaning his sword and threw the silk back to Metharius "Thanks" he smiled then placed the things on his back more confertably. "I knew you'd come up with something...you never fail to impress to do!, Just the way we like you" he smiled warmly at her then walked over to Cassondra. He hadn't really spoken to her since they had told eachother how they both felt, "Hey..all set?" he asked her trying not to let the nervousness fall into his voice as he spoke.
-
cassandra smiled, "yeah, i'm ready," she looked up into his face and sensed he was nervous so she leant forward and squeesed his hand
-
Legolas felt slightly relived in how Cassondra had kind if broken the ice "Thanks" He smiled, he didnt really no why he said this but it made him feel better. "So...wonder if we're travling in stype?"
-
"Style is not important legolas, speed is of the essence" Meltharius said looking torward the distance.
-
Legolas laughed slightly, looking at Metharuis then at everyone else. Over the last few months Legolas felt that Metharuis had changed in some way, he wasn't how he used to be or maybe it was Legolas who needed to change he didn't know. "Either way we shell not be walking" he signed "What if we get to the beloved shire and something tragic had happened, heaven forbid but its a possability"
-
"A probability would be a more apt word" Meltharius thought. He drew his blade from it's sheath and passed the edge along the palm of his hand, blood oozed from the razor thin gash. He allowed the blood to fall to the ground. "I give my blood to the earth that has drank the blood of my comrades" he whispered.
-
Sam slowly walked out to the others, his head bent low, his bag slung over one shoulder. He didn't understand what Eleclya meant by, 'They'll be here soon'. Who would be here soon?! Were they going to be a help or not? Sam was confused by many things right now. He accidently overheard Meltharius and Legolas talking... it seemed the others also didn't have high hopes for the Shire. Sam sighed softly, staring out over the countryside. He knew he didn't belong in this group of friends, that he was just a nuisance.
-
Legolas glanced at Metharuis before noticing Sam had arrived into the scene. He had not really spoken to him since this had all happened, Walking over to him smiling broudly sitting on a near by rock so he was more his leave "You ok? I haven't been able to speak to you since everything has happened...Without you we would have lost some very dear friends and I can't thank you enough for that. You maybe small but you certainly have skill with a sword and a big heart." he smiled warmly down at him "I am honoured to have meet someone like you, to have someone with such bravary in my life...I just hope that what others are saying aren't true, about your friends. If they are your friends surly they will be as proud of you as we are!" Legolas patted Sam's back "I don't think I have ever been to the Shire..what is it like my good man?" he asked ceriously.
-
Sam looked up at Legolas, a fake smile on his face, blushing slightly at what Legolas said. Legolas was still taller than him, even when he was sitting on a rock! "The Shire?" He asked, trying to think of how to describe it. There were so many thoughts running through his head about the Shire. Like taking children for piggy backs across the fields, having a ale with your friends after a hard day's work, the Old Gaffer... Rosie Cotton! "Quite simply, it's home," Sam said softly. Sure Legolas must know what he meant when he said that... there was no place in the world like home.
-
Legolas smiled once again "Sounds wounderful...No place better then home!" He said walking off the rock and adjected his things "Can't wait...Im sure we will be made highly welcome, No matter how tall I am I will always look up to Hobbits" He spoke before one final glance at the cave and where they were. Walking over to Metharius he placed one hand onto his shoulder "You once again fort well my friend as you always have and will" he smiled then turned to look at Sam again before speaking to Metharius "Is Sam ok? He's not himself"
-
*Nienna emerged from the cave, shielding her eyes with her hand as her sight collided with the brightness coming off the sun. Thinking about it, it hardly seemed like there was a battle the day before, except from the wreckage of Minas Tirith. As the Elf looked over at the once great white city she let a sorrowful sigh escape her lips for the dead. Even though she hadn't lost any of her friends, many men had died and Rhinvan was gradually winning, most of the elves had left, the race of men had almost disappeared into nothingness, Dwarves still dwelt in their mines and Hobbits they didn't know about, but Nienna could tell the others feared the worst.
She dropped her hand to her side as she looked up, squinting her eyes slightly as they adjusted to the light. In the near distance she could see winged creatures making their way towards them. For one dreaded moment she thought the worst, she thought that they were Dragons. But as the creatures drew closer, she could tell they weren't. She sighed with relief. The Eagles who aided them in the last battle of Minas Tirith, were now making their way towards them*
*A smile spread across Eleclya's face as she saw the approaching Eagles. Then she turned back to the others, she knew she hadn't given a lot away and kept them guessing but she didn't want to talk nor did she feel the need to* "The Eagles are here" *She told them* "Thankfully, they have agreed to take us to The Shire"
-
(I'm going away for the weekend, so I will not be able to get online tomorrow, Saturday or Sunday. Please do not get me lost... you can move my character/s on if you want! Also, just to warn you in advance, the week after next, I am going away for two weeks, and will not be able to get online at all. Same again, please don't get me lost, but you can move my character/s around! Thanks very much!)
-
Meltharius turned and looked at Eleclya. "What of Rhinvan? I agree we must make sure the shire is safe but he may use this time to escape. To regather his forces. But since we know not where he is, I agree. Let us make for the shire" he said. Suddenly he swung around and looked at everyone. "Where is Blaen?"
Five miles away a regiment of horsemen galloped eastward, among there number was a ranger, beaten and bound.
(It is my intention for Blaen to be taken to Rhinvan and this may have a big role later. For now may I suggest that the others go to the shire after deciding that Blaen is probably dead.)
-
(All right, Samwise, if we do a lot (Which I don't intend) I'll IM with what has happened and I'll move your character on for you. Just on the note of not being online, I may not be on much next week and I go away on th 20th August and I don't think I'll be coming back till early September. I'm not sure :8o)
(OK, well, what are we going to do about The Shire? Is it going be destroyed? Or is it going to be all right and stoof? I'm not really bothered, I think we should make that decision together :). I think it could be partly destroyed, but there will be still Hobbits alive, living in the woods on the outskirts and healing the wounded etc. Up to you lot though)
*Eleclya hesitated for a moment, deep thought shown in her pale blue eyes. She then looked up at Meltharius* "If he is not here, Meltharius, I fear he is dead" *She said sadly, she couldn't recall what had happened to Blaen, she remembered seeing him after battle, but like a Ranger, it was likely he could've set off on his own, which meant that anything could've happened to him. She sighed* "But, if so, we must get to The Shire as soon as possible. There we may be able to pick up some suppiles, we may be able to find some Horses on the boarding villages. If we search for Rhinvan we must do so on the ground and I don't see us travelling all over Middle-Earth on foot"
-
cassandra watched as the mighty golden birds approached and smiled, hoping this was the start to some good fortune coming their way
(as we're announcing when we're away i'm off on holiday a week tomorrow and i'll be away for a week, feel free to move my character and please try not to get me too lost)
-
(Sorry to smap but it looks like theres only gonna be me and chris left!! lol Have fun everyone Miss you! :'( :D)
-
(just want to remind everyone i'll be away on holiday for a week, i leave tomorrow so i won't be able to post other than today, please move my character because i really think we need to get this roleplay moving and off to the shire :P
cya guys, i'll miss ya :D)
-
(I'm going on holiday tomorrow. I didn't move this on because I thought with over 2 people gone we should just wait but anywho, once I get back I'll get things started up again :). But just incase of a sudden bring back to life post, if you move on, please could someone move my characters. Thanks, and I'll see you in just over a week :P)
-
as the eagles landed outside the cave cassandra stepped forward to a large brown eagle, in the morning sun it's feather shimmered gold. leaning forward slightly cassandra gave the bird a small bow, the eagle nodded in return and cassandra stepped forward and mounted the bird, climbing to thetop of the birds back, just below it's neck where she tried to sit well so as not to fall off when the bird took flight
-
Meltharius stood and stared into the distance further before mounting the Eagle that had landed beside him. "To the shire then? We cannot waste time there I'm afraid, we still have a war to win." he said grimly.
-
*Eleclya nodded and pulled herself up onto one of the Eagles before thanking him for offering his aid to them once again. Once she was on she looked up to the sky, it was late morning but they would be able to make it to The Shire quickly on the Eagles*
-
Sam looked nervously up at the others, as they all got onto the eagles. They all seemed to have done it before. He glanced at the eagle that landed infront of him, smiling slightly, as he gently put out a tentative hand to touch it's feathers. The eagle seemed to realise, and got lower down. Sam slowly climbed onto the eagle's back, taking care not to grip too hard onto the eagle's feathers, so as to not hurt it. He looked once more, round at the others.
-
(Im back! sorry not been posting( and on megs site) just been buzy is all!)
Legolas quickly pulled himself onto an Eagel before watching everyone else, realising there might have to be two to an eagel he sat there waiting to see who would have to join him.
-
cassandra smiled as she turned to see legolas, "legolas, d'you want to share?" she asked, meaning the eagle
-
Legolas looked down at Cassondra and smiled broudly "Oh course" he held out his hand to help her up, once she was sat down infront of him he placed his hands around her waist. Legolas sat there for awhile before something ran threw his mind, He wanted to tell her something he had never done before "I....I..lo-" he stopped, he didn't know how to say it, he didn't know if it wa sthe right thing to say so he quickly changed it "I Like the looks of flying today, weathers great"
-
Amarie eyed the eagles suspicously. She was not afraid, but flying did not look appealing to her. Nonetheless she swollowd her pride and approached one of the eagles, talking softly to it. Slowly she got on, held on fast and closed her eyes, waiting.
-
*Seeing that all the Eagles had been taken, Nienna approached Meltharius with a small smile on her face* "Mind if I ride with you?" *She asked. They hadn't really talked since before the battle and Nienna missed his company some what, but she knew that she couldn't put everything aside just for the sake of missing someone*
-
"Hop on" said Meltharius emotionlessly. The Eagle was a strong one and could easily bare the weight of two elves but Meltharius was deep in thought. What of Blaen? Could his friend really have died?
-
*Nienna climbed on behind Meltharius but she had the feeling that his mind was somewhere else, but she decided not to pester him about it. She put her arms around his waist so she wouldn't fall off when they took off*
*Eleclya looked around, it seemed everyone was ready now* "Right, lets go" *She said and with that the Eagle she was on pulled out his strong wings and brought them up into the air, with heavy, but swift beats. The other Eagles followed as he rose higher, leading them.Eleclya leaned forward and held onto the Eagles soft feathers, carefully making sure she didn't pull any out*
-
as the eagle rose, it wings powerful and strong, cassandra looked back at minus tirith, instead of giving in to the feeling of loss she felt stronger, knowing that by finding rhinvan middle earth could start to rebuild all that been broken
-
Meltharius felt a lurch as the bird took to the sky. Nienna's arms were wrapped around his waste but her touch brought him no comfort. He was emotionless, a stone. His eyes were open and stared into the distance, but he saw nothing, nothing but pain. The question that had plagued him his whole life returned. "Why? Why must I endure so much pain?"
-
As the wind caught Eleclya's face and brushed back her hair, she felt a sense of freedom, although the thoughts of Rhinvan and what could possibly be happening in the Shire pressed her mind, she couldn't help push them aside, just for now. She hadn't felt freedom in a long time, and she welcomed it with open arms.
She gathered her senses, after feeling a few moments of pure happiness, but now she looked down slightly, through the gaps in the clouds that they soared above and now, after that blast of freedom, she was so determined to find Rhinvan and kill him. But even as she felt this determination, it was crippled by the fact of reality, which was it was unlikely that they would succeed and even if they did, it could well take all of their lives. Eleclya gave a sad sigh and concentrated her gaze on what was in front of her and the Eagle she was now flying on.
-
Meltharius cleared his vision. He had no time to reflect, the date of middle-earth lay in their hands. "Elecyla!" he cried to his half-sister. "Be vigilant, there is a chance that some of the dragons may have surived the battle!" he called out. He turned back to Nienna and touched his hand to her cheek. "Soon this will all be over my love" he whispered to her.
-
As Eleclya heard Meltharius' words she half nodded, mostly to herself, he was right, there were probably Dragon's still about and they would be lucky if they didn't confront any on their journey to The Shire.
Nienna smiled weakly, the touch of Meltharius' hand had comforted her a great deal, but she couldn't help but think that maybe things would be over soon, whether it be in death or victory but neither were certain. She sighed slightly and looked ahead, "lets just hope it will end in victory," she said softly.
-
While the others were talking, Legolas sat upon the Eagle with his arms wrapped around Cassondras waist protectivly he mearly smiled to himself about everything. Feeling the wind in his face, the smell and touch of someone he loved and the sence that even though the future looked grim there was still a spark of hope. At this thought he squeezed Cassonsra comfortingly and whispered in her ear "I love you" he smiled as he said this, as cheesy as it was it was something he had never felt or said to anyone in this way before....but strangly enough he did not feel embarrest or shy of saying this to her.
-
cassandra smiled and turned her head slightly over her shoulder, she long brown hair dancing in the wind, her green eyes soft, "i love you too,"
-
(Awww Cheesy But awwww)
Legolas smiled again before turning his head round to where they had just left "Sad isn't it....That we will never see that magnificent place as it was before" Legolas sighed then looked over at the horizon "The shire...Have you been there before?" he asked Cassondra cauriously
-
cassandra nodded, "it's where we pretty much began our journey, it's been so long but i've had nienna through all of it, everything we've faced we've faced together," cassandra answered
-
(okie, I am just gonna move this on a little bit)
After a long journey the Eagles started to gradually dip through the clouds. The landscape that could be seen below was that of Buckland, "we're nearly there," Eleclya called back to the others as they continued to fall steadily from the sky.
The Eagles circled slightly and came down in a forest on the borders of Buckland, Eleclya climbed down from the Eagles back, slightly stiff and achy from not moving much.
-
cassandra dismounted and looked up at the eagle, "thank you," she said gratefully and then smiled at legolas still sat on the magnificent bird
-
Meltharius jumped off the great bird, bowed respectfully and offered it a piece of lembas bread from his bag. The eagle shook it's head and Meltharius nodded "Very well. I thank you for the haste in which you have brought us here" he said to the eagle.
-
Samwise got off the Eagle who had been on, softly saying hsi thanks to it, knowing it would understand. He glanced around at the edge of the forest they had landed near, instantly recognisng where they were. His eyes lit up slightly, and he turned around to see the others, most still getting off the eagles. Sam was nervous now, that was for sure. He didn't know what to expect...
-
Legolas jumped off the Eagle nodding and patting it thankfully, before walking off towards the others "So Sam...how far is the Shire from here?" he asked unsure of where they actually were "Please do not threat...you should have faith in your home not worry.." Legolas told Sam comfortingly as he could feel Sam's nerves.
