Samuel Underhill son of Thomas, and Drogo Baggins son of Fosco, the two best friends the Shire had ever witnessed, was inseparable. They were together almost all the time; one would never see one hobbit without the other. In fact, the two hobbits' bond was so strong many said they were beginning to look like brothers.
The year Drogo married Primula Brandybuck, Samuel was also married, but to an Elf by the name of Mithredriel Summerset. Drogo did not mind at all, as it was during Samuel's travels to Elsewhere that led him to the Elves, and he had fallen in love with Mithredriel. He had promised to marry her.
The time came when Samuel and Mithredriel were about to borne their first child. It was a son, whom they named Celordel. And not many years later, when Mithredriel was with child a second time, Drogo and Primula were about to have their first child. Samuel had a daughter this time, while Drogo's wife gave birth to a son. His name was Frodo, hers Celandiel, meaning 'Green Lady'.
Not long after, Drogo and Primula disappeared mysteriously, leaving young Frodo behind. Despite the fact that Samuel was closest to Drogo and his family, Frodo's first cousin, the strange but popular Bilbo Baggins took the child as his own to raise.
Thus the series of events happened following the Quest of the Ring, when Frodo took on the task to bring the One Ring into the pits of Mount Doom to rid evil forever. It was during this time when her husband died of old age, and that Mithredriel could wait no longer for Frodo's return so that he could ask for Celandiel's hand in marriage, and the family left to Rivendell.
Many years wore on, but instead of the tallness her brother had, Celandiel remained only a slight taller than a hobbit, which worried her mother greatly. During their stay in Rivendell, the family befriended Elrond and his household, and Celandiel learned the art of archery with Elrohir, Elladan, and her brother's help.
The War of the Ring had ended then, and the Fellowship had parted. When Gimli Gloin's son and Legolas Greenleaf had finished exploring the caves and forests they each had promised in return, the Prince of Mirkwood returned to his home; his father was in need to find a wife for his youngest son, and his second youngest child already had a daughter, named Andraste Emeraldpetal, in honour of Legolas' bravery with the Fellowship.
When Elladan left because his love was with child, Mithredriel decided that none of the bachelor Elves was suitable for her daughter, and again the family moved away, this time, to Mirkwood. During that time, Elladan had two daughters, Calatalai and Calatelien, the first of the great- grandchildren of Galadriel, Queen of all the Elves.
