Disclaimer: we don't own any of this. Places, characters, the whole kit bang kaboodle. If we did, we would be fabulously rich, living in a mansion in California with a legion of servants and a couple of planes. Maybe four or five planes. And a roller coaster. And a pool. So, you can pretty much take it from us that we do not own any of the things contained in this story.
Note: These events take place when Aragorn was around twenty years old, and/or in the Trios sixth year.
Aragorn gazed out over Rivendell. The valley was cloaked in blue-grey twilight, and high above the stars burned like flecks of crystal. It was good to be back there again. After three months with the rangers, sleeping on cold ground and eating sparsely, the luxury of his home was more inviting than ever before. It would be especially good to learn that Legolas Greenleaf was staying in the house of Elrond, as it had been years since Aragorn had seen his good friend.
"The valley is especially beautiful tonight, ion nin, is it not"
Aragorn jumped at the sound of Elrond's voice. He had not seen his foster father approach and stand by his side.
"I am especially glad," the elf continued, "That you have returned from your stay with the Dunadain uninjured. For once."
"It was not for lack of trying, Ada."
Elrond laughed, "come us go in. The night's meal has been prepared."
"Has the Mirkwood King and his son arrived?" I heard that they were coming.
"Yes, yes. They arrived a day early, in fact."
The two of them, man and elf, turned and walked inside. "Are my brothers here?" Aragorn asked.
No sooner had the words left his mouth than two tall, brown-haired forms appeared through the door to the dining hall and swept Aragorn up into a crushing hug. "We missed you, Estel!" exclaimed Elrohir.
"It's been much too silent without you," added Elladan.
Elrond placed a firm hand on his elder sons shoulder. "I would not call any house with you two in it, silent, Elladan."
As Aragorn burst into laughter he noticed a blond figure appearing in the doorway to the dining hall. "If this reunion is quite over," Legolas Greenleaf said, "my father and I are growing hungry, and wish to eat.
Aragorn smiled at his friend. " Nice to see you to Legolas," he said.
Legolas smiled at his friend and said "yes it is nice to see you Dunadain but my father and I are hungry."
Aragorn, Elrond, and the twins made their way into the dinning hall for what was sure to be a pleasant dinner
