The Fourth Age

Summary- The years had passed since the Dark Lord and his one ring was defeated, and many a year the Dark Lord's heirs had been waiting and planning their rise to power. When the time comes, they will re-forge a new ring, a ring as deadly as the one before it. Could hope be lost amongst middle earth once more? Or will the free folk fight again, for their freedom and lands? The heirs of Gondor shall fight alongside many, and meet old and new foes and friends, but for one of Aragorns children, could an old friendship blossom into something completely different? A new war is brewing and the need to fight is dior, for the choices are to fight trying or die! What paths will be taken? Shall the two heirs of evil betray what was taught to them, or shall they continue the dark lords deeds of conquering the world. Mistakes are inevitable when under pressure, especially when that pressure is dior!
Thus The Fourth Age Begins.

Prolouge-

Many a year had passed since the defeat of the Dark Lord Sauron and the one trecherous ring of power: twenty to be precise. Many changes are possible over the time of twenty years, especially when a world is in recovery from dark shadows, which had once taken control of the lands. Middle Earth, had infact changed quite a bit, but for better rather than for worse. Many of the damaged cities had been repaired, so that any remaining battle scars were not seen easily by normal eyes. The Shire was green once more, nothing of the darker times was left there, and the hobbits were able to continue their daily routines of eating, drinking and celebrating. Bigger folk would sometimes pass through Hobbiton, but only rarely, for the land of the Shire soon became nothing more than part of a tale, and the Hobbits were in no hurry to have anything to do in the big folks buisness. Infact, it was as if no war had existed, the Hobbits made it seem that way anyhow. But the tales of the great ringwar still lived on. The tale would be passed on through the generations, and not a single word was taken, added or changed, Samwise Gamgee saw to that!

The past twenty years had been hard on the three Hobbits, whom had fought in the great battle, and Frodo's leaving made it no easier to bear. But eventually, Merry and Pippin settled, and only Sam was left in mourning. But all wounds heal in time, even those which are not visable and eventualy, with the help of Rosie and their children, Sam managed to settle down as had Merry and Pippin before him.

Merry, Pippin and Sam would often get together and remenise over the past years, they would wonder of what fate had been placed for the remainder of the fellowship. They planned to visit Gondor, to find out, but no one was in a hurry to leave the Shire, not yet anyway.

It seemed that the rest of the fellowship had stayed close to eachother, for the bond between these were strong. Aragorn had remained in Gondor, and accepted his destiny to be king. Arwen stayed with him, and the two were blessed with 3 children, a son and two daughters. Eldarion was the eldest of the three, he was much like Aragorn, but had eyes resembling those of his mothers. Lutheniol, was the middle child, she also had dark hair and blue eyes, and if it wasn't for the one year age gap, she and her brother could be considered twins. Elwin was the youngest, her heir was not as dark as her siblings and her eyes were more of a silvery grey, rather than being an ocean blue.

Legolas and Gimli would often visit the family, bringing news of their travels. The rest of the time, they would be exploring the corners of Middle earth together, for a friendship was clearly visable between the two. Gimli had been blessed with the title of elf-friend, and was probably the only dwarf to have been given that title.

All was well among Middle Earth, no shadows lingered between lands, and the free folk were able to rebuild their societies and realms. All were happy and jolly, all that is but two.

These two were still grief-stricken from the loss f a loved one, they despised the hapiness which had spread over the lands, and they envied the people who had families which had been spared from the Ringwar. They had fled to the depths of the lonely Mountains, and had dwelt in a small cave there. Then, they had waited. They had waited for their time to come, the time where they would be able to spread the darkness once more. For they were content on avenging their father, The Dark Lord Sauron. They were Sauron's remaining heirs, his son and daughter. Cellendorn, was his daughter, she was fair and had silver hair which resembled the moon in the hour of twilight, her eyes were green and had a sparkle to them, which was only ever seen when she was determind to do something. Carinthir, was her twin brother. His hair was the colour of night sky, and his eyes the same green and with the same sparkle to them as his sisters.

Together, these twins planned their rise to power, each taking an oath to stick by eachother until the deed was done, to not rest until the darkness had once more overcome Middle Earth and to enslave and put the free folk of Midlle Earth under their command.

It had taken these twenty years for their plan to be arranged, they knew the art of ring forging, their Father had shared that little knowledge with them, and they had agreed to forge a new ring of power in the upcoming months. Once a new ring was in power, they would have control over the remaing three rings, and the nine ring wraiths would be able to return to the service of the ring master. A new wave of darkness was to overcome Middle Earth once more, time was short and no one knew the two heirs of the dark lord even existed. Middle earth would succum to the dark shadows, a new war was to be fought..........thus the Fourth Age begins.
