King's Kidnapping

[Celebmornie]

*Smiles at him following as he led the way to the mess hall and entering when he held the door for her*

Thank you....

(Sss)

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil nodded, motioning to a seat that Heather should sit down in. The room had fallen silent when Heather and himself had walked in, but Aurendil continued to move, doing what he did every day. Gradually the chatter started again, though you couldn't be sure that they were talking about the same thing they had been before. Aurendil quickly got two meals, placing a plate infront of Heather, and sitting down opposite her.

[Celebmornie]

*Smiles muttering a quick 'Thank You' and looking around the room noticing some of the odd looks she was receiving, and trying to ignore the questioning faces*

If you are king why do you not dine in the main dining hall?

(sorry so short)

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil shrugged, staring down at his plate. "Too serious, and high and mighty for me there. The soldiers know that I eat the same food as them too, so they can't really complain." Aurendil looked up, smiling, and winked. He had started out as a soldier when he was younger, and gradually made his way up the ranks. He knew how it had felt, when you were eating rubbish, and the king was in a whole seperate room, probably feasting on glorious food

[Celebmornie]

*Smiles and nods in understanding taking a bite of the food and looking around again noticing the tapestries hanging on the walls*

Those are beautiful...I do hope you keep up with cleaning them though...

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil looked up, looking up to the tapestries as well, a small smile playing on his features. "Oh yes, we do. Don't tell them I told you, but the men secretly love cleaning them," He said softly, a sparkle in his eye. Aurendil chuckled slightly, shaking his head. "Don't ask me why. I think they just like that it means they get to have time aloen with their friends. I do not get someoen to watch them, they just know that I expect it of them." To most of the soldiers, Aurendil was seen as a father figure. They all knew that they couldn't push him too far though

[Celebmornie]

*Smiles and nods noticeing that some of the people looked like they planned on coming over and shifts nervously before stilling herself and looking at him thoughtfully*

So you are a gentle and generous king?

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil looked around as Heather looked uncomfortable, nodding at the men who were looking over. "Some people would disagree with what you say... at least about the gentle bit! No,  Ican be ruthless as well. All kings have to be, else they would never get anywhere." Aurendil laughed, focusing back on Heather. The soldiers got to their feet, and then sat either side of Aurendil and Heather, nervous smiles on their faces.

[Celebmornie]

*Tenses when they sit down her fork halfway back to the plate and she forces herself to set it down and look somewhat relaxed. She didn't dare talk knowing it was not the maid's place to begin conversaition.*

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil smiled silently to himself as he saw Heather's manners. He glanced around at the others, all staring nervously into his plates. "Have you all suddenly turned mute?" Aurendil asked. "Heather, this is the boys..." He listed them, pointing to each. "And this is Heather." Some of the boys brightened up as Aurendil spoke, giving hurried glances in Heather's direction, smiles on their faces. "It's not often they see such beautiful woman like you," Aurendil whispered to Heather, though the others heard

[Celebmornie]

*Blushes and shakes her head causing some of her hair to fall into her face with the action. She felt slightly nervous with some of the looks she was receiving.*

You are to kind my lord...

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil smiled, marvelling at the sudden change in Heather's attitude. She had been so confident around him, and yet now, she was so quiet, almost nervous. He gave sharp looks to some of the men who looked at Heather in the wrong way, not wanting her to feel uncomfortable. Slowly, conversations broke out around the group, everyone relaxing slightly more

(Sss )

[Celebmornie]

*Relaxes a little more as everyone starts talking again looking up in time to see the king sending some of his men a glare, causing her to smile*

Thank you...

[Samwise Gamgee]

Aurendil nodded slightly, not feeling the need to say anymore. He quickly ate his dinner, his head bent low. He had some important matters to attend to and needed to hurry up. Aurendil was quite thin, and looekd tired and worn out... he often had to rush about, either not eating or eating little quickly.

(Sss)

[Celebmornie]

*Watches him eat curious as to why he was in such a hury. She didn't know what to say so she just ate her food in silence studying some of the people around them noticing that they didn't seem to be angry or hateful towards there king*
