Theorene's Tale

Twelve pairs of small pitter pattering feet traipsed into Theorene's meeting, nine pairs of larger feet thumping after them. Theorene looked up as her husband Faramir, her cousins Eomer and Eowyn, their wife and husband respectively Hyethwyn and Amrothos, Aragorn and Arwen carrying her daughter Alastegiel, her king and queen, her best friend Charyth and her husband Boromir entered the room, looking desperate.

All fifteen of the children sat down around the room. The youngest six, Elrowyn, Guthryn, Phoenix, Cwenhild, Stelwyn and Eoden sat by Theorene's feet, the rest of the children sitting at the meeting table. Alastegiel was settled in Theorene's lap, to her happiness, Theorene loved to hold babies. "Can you watch them for a while, please? We men are having an important meeting and the women are preparing for the feast tomorrow night." Aragorn asked apologetically.

Theorene nodded, "Yes, certainly. I know, I'll tell them the story about how everybody here fell in love during battles." She answered, grinning wildly.

The adults left, after telling their children to behave for Auntie Theorene and administering copious kisses and hugs.

Theorene made sure all the children were comfortable before beginning her tale."It all began, for me anyway, twelve years ago…"

Hey Everyone. This is short, I know but the next chapter will be longer.

Eowyn and Amrothos have one child, nine year old Theoden.

Eomer and Hyethwyn have three children, nine year old Theomund, eight year old Eoden and five year old Guthryn.

Theorene and Faramir have three children, eleven year old twins, Findre and Duilas and three year old Elrowyn.

Aragorn and Arwen have four children, ten year old Eldarion, eight year old Stelwyn, four year old Phoenix and one year old Alastegiel.

Boromir and Charyth have two children, eleven year old Deneron and seven year old Cwenhild.

Theodred (I know he's dead but in my version he was married before he died) and Guthryn have one child, thirteen year old Elfhilda.

The names come from my imagination twisting pre-existing names or a baby names website set on old english names which I figured since all but one family has at least one rohirric parent and rohirric language is based off old english.

The exceptions are Alastegiel which I got off www-arwenundomiel-com (replace dashes with dots), Theoden which JRR TOLKIEN owns as well as anything you recognise and Phoenix, which I chose because I liked it.
