Lord Elrond of Rivendell stared at the bundle in front of him. It had been brought to him early this morning with the message that said: king Arathorn and his wife Gilraen, were slain during an orc attack… the king in his last breath asked you to foster his only son Aragorn.

He still can't believe it, Arathorn and Gilraen dead? It seems that only yesterday they were here feasting among them, showing off their only son.

Their only son.

He looked at the bundle once again. It started to move. Aragorn is waking up.

Elrond sighed and pick him up. Aragorn woke up and stared at Elrond.

"Papa?" he looked at him questioningly. Elrond didn't answer. He just stared back at the child in front of him.

Aragorn on the other hand, receiving no answer, began to wail. Loudly.

"waahhhhh…"

His wail echoing in the palace halls. Elrond tried to make him stop, but his efforts where fruitless.

Elladan was dreaming of battles and victory, when Aragorn's wails woke him up.

"wwaaaahhh…"

Elladan jump from his bed and instinctively reached for his sword (which he kept beside him every night) thinking that they were under attack. But then he realized that someone is wailing.

"What in Arda?" he said as he started to get dressed quickly.

When his finished, he went out to his twin's room to see if Elrohir was awaken by the wails as well. He didn't have to walk far, because he bumped into him in the next corner.

"Good morning, Dan!" Elrohir greeted him.

"good morning to you too, Ro."

"what do you think that is?"

"I have no idea."

"let's go find out!"

"what are we waiting for? Let's GO'

They searched for the source of the wailing. They've check every room they come upon. Every time, the wailing seems to be getting louder.

The two searched and searched until they stop at their adar's room. The wailing seems to be coming from the inside.
