Disclaimer: All right people. I DO NOT own any of the original LoTR
characters. They belong to that wonderful magnanimous genius Tolkien.
This story is fictional and I'm not taking any money for it so please, no
one sue me. Entertainment purposes ONLY!
This is my first fic ever so be kind. I would love reviews and constructive criticisms but no flames. If you don't like my story then please keep it to yourself. Ignorance is Bliss you know. I'm not following any format, books, movies, etc. I have read and seen all and am doing whatever I feel like with this fic cuz that's what it's all about. Don't know if the OC is a Mary-Sue, I don't care if she is. I write for fun. It gets better after the first few chapters (at least I think so) and info as well as character personality is revealed with time. Please Enjoy! That's what I wrote it for.
(P.S. Gotta love that Elf)
Chapter 1- "In which Gandalf finds a way"
"I don't know what to tell you Falmarin," Gandalf said quietly. "There is nothing I'd like better than to say that I have a simple solution to this thing but quite frankly I don't. Do not forget, she is a wizard as well and our minds are like chessboards. Were I to think of something else she would probably only foil those plans with her own schemes. It is to be expected of evil you know." He added with a smirk. "Especially when that evil lies in the mind of a scorned woman," he did not add.
"There is no other option available. You must send your wife Silme and the child to a place where evil cannot sense them. Unfortunately there is no place in this world that will guarantee that kind of protection. I can send them to another world for a brief time and bring Silme back but your daughter must remain. At least until we can eradicate the evil threatening her life. Believe me old friend." And here Gandalf fixed Falmarin with a frighteningly serious stare.
"There is no other way.'
Falmarin nodded and turned to his wife. She looked frightened but determined. "It is not fair," he could not help thinking "They had been through so much already. Why could he not be the one to go, to protect his family, his wife and newborn daughter? They had waited so long for the miracle of life to be graced to them. And now that it had finally happened. When he had rejoiced over the precious gift that was his daughter, when he had seen the light shining in his wife's eyes once more, it was all being stripped away with only a faint glimmer of hope." He took Silme's hand and squeezed it softly offering her his support and love. His silver star, she was brave to do this. She had never even questioned Gandalf's motives. He was the only one to demand that a better solution be found. One that would keep his wife and baby out of harms way and in his arms. Alas, he seemed to be clinging to a dream.
"Alright Gandalf, if the council present here agree to the wisdom in this. Silme will go to this other world you speak of."
There were murmurs of agreement from those around him. Falmarin was deeply touched by the elves that had come to offer their support to the kingdom of Neenuvar. These were some of his best friends and counselors in the room true, but they had risen without question to the occasion to help his family personally putting their own family's lives in danger. Lord Elrond of Rivendell, and King Tharunduil of Eryn Lasgalen were among them and each had their own relatively young children to concern with. He suspected many of the others were there because of his Silme. Her beauty, grace and wisdom was something most realms were familiar with, and many present had watched her grow from an adventurous princess into the stately queen that now sat beside him braving silently what had to be one of the worst moments of her life. He wept inwardly at her grief and the inner strength that kept her from showing it.
The council adjourned soon after and he and Silme retreated to their chambers to hold their precious daughter and comfort each other until that fateful sunrise that would all too soon see them separated.
