October 13.
So much has happened today. Its so hard to name them all... I suppose I'll star off with the fact that mother and father have finally decided to let Nilannawen live with us. Her parents can no longer grace us with their presence in Middle-Earth. They have died. She didn't tell me how though, so I am at a loss. My best guess would have to be some terrible plague. She must feel really terrible. I saw her a week ago. I was riding my horse, Elowen, towards the northern border close to the limits of Cathedra. I saw her standing there playing a flute. She must have heard me because when I had jumped off Elowen, she stopped playing. From then on we kind of, how should I say this, clicked. She is now officailly my sister... I wonder if that will be a good thing.
She sticks out like a sore thumb here in Cathedra. With red hair and green eyes... she looks strange in this kingdom of brown haired, brown eyes elves, but she thinks like the rest of them... Logically.
I don't understand why they all think that way. It's no fun. They always have to have the facts of everything. I have learned to drift out of reality. Facts are no fun. I perfer the abstract way of thinking.
Ah, yes, once again, I must go and do another royal task *sigh*

Yes, I know, twice in the same day. It's amazing how much free time I have on my hands. I woke up at sunrise this morning and rode to the western hill top. It was a beautiful site indeed. The sun a bright fiery red, and the sky was filled with light pink and white clouds. Nilannawen was with me too. She had brought her flute. What mezmorizing melodies she played. They could hypnotize the butterflies in the meadow below us. We weren't up there for long before many of the other elves had awoken. Nilannawen left shortly after, for we both knew that the children would soon rush to the top of the hill.
Once again. I must go. I hear my mother craves a word with me. Very well then.

I see I have not written in awhile. It's not surprising. Nothing ever happens here in Cathedra. I think that the most that has ever happened was probably whenever we get visitors. Take for example, when Legolas comes. A large supper is prepared and all of the "important people" as my father calls them, are invited. I don't see why we get all excited when he comes. I have noticed that whenever Legolas visits, Nilannawen is exceptionally quiet... I wonder why. I wonder if she likes him. It wouldn't be the first time one of my friends has felt that way about him. I have noticed another change. My diary entries. I can tell from last month that they are becoming shorter. Less time I suppose. Speaking of time... it is now supper time, and I must go.

Nilannawen and myself were called into the throne room this morning. She like usual was looking down at her feet. Father has told me the Legolas will be visiting the kingdom of Cathedra next month. I looked over at Nilannawen and I swear she was smiling.
We went up to the western hilltop mid-afternoon. The gentle breeze blowing on my face. It was wonderful. Right up until Lily, (my little sister) came up there. When she is there, it is so noisy. She doesn't know when to be quiet. She makes me angry. Sometimes I wish as though I were an only child. Either that or just have Nilannawen as a sister. What am I saying... I know she means well, but there are just somethings, I wish she would change.
Well, it is near night, and I must head back towards home. Sometimes I wish I could never leave this western hilltop. It's so beautiful.

Looks like rain. Another amaizing thing. It never really rains here in Cathedra. It's a wonder how our land stays so lush and green. I remember once when I was a child that my father told me a story of why it is like this... I wish I could remember. All I remeber is a child, a sorceress, and flowers. Perhaps I will remember it later.
Nilannawen seems to be in a cheerful mood. Her soft sweet flowing melodies have turned into cheerful 'pips'. She must be counting down until Legolas comes. I know that she wouldn't be the only one. Lily too. I am again sitting up here on the western hilltop. Nilannawen had just told me she felt a raindrop. We must head back home.

The last time I wrote it rained, and on the way home, we stopped to enjoy the fresh rain. We were dancing and Nilannawen was playing her flute. I wish that day would never end. The fresh rain tasted so refreshing and good. I would have written sooner but while out in the rain, my diary had been soaked. It would have been impossible for me to write on wet paper. I am baffled to a point as well. All of my paper is wet, yet the ink hasn't smudged the slightest bit. Ah well, I suppose it's one of those unexplained phnomenas.
I am happy to say that there is only one more day left untill Legolas comes. The mood of Cathedra has changed from the normal happy mood, to an 'excited lurching in your stomach mood' as Nilannawen has called it. Breakfast is ready, and I am far to excited to write much more, so I must go now.
