"It has been a long time," stated Katherine awkwardly.

"Oh my daughter!" gasped Celebrian rushing forward and enveloping her in a tight embrace tear of joy streaming down her face. Katherine just stood there not responding. When Celebrian finally stepped back.

"I've come on behafe of the great and all powerful Valar. I am here to save my father. May I try?" She asked. They needed to act quickly Lord Elrond was in the last few staged of fadding.

"There is a letter that explains what I am able to do with my powers read it but please let me try to help," she looked directly into her mother's eyes.

"Katherine you are my daughter I have faith in you," she replied grasping her hand and leading her to the bed where the rest of the family was standing obscuring the view of Lord Elrond. They all smiled at her warmly but said nothing they'd be time for greetings later. Katherine's gaze fell upon Lord Elrond. His eyes closed and his dark hair a unhealthy brown and his skin was an unhealthy grey. He looked weak and fragile.

"Can you really help him?" asked Celebrian.

"I know I can," she replied determidly.

"Then by all means," she gestured.

Katherine slipped on her Ring of Integrity for that feeling of home. The Ring bound her to the other Defenders of light. Placeing her hand on his forehead she began to recite the spell.

"Do vrun gala gesto metre mellas genofiro," there was a flash of blue light and power radiated of her in waves. Katherine removed her hand from Lord Elronds forehead and he began to stir. Blinking a few times and looking around. He looked well again perfectly healthy. His gazed lingered on Katherine. He stared at her puzzled she had grown and she looked do different. He expession was blank showing no emotion at all. The others rushed at him overwhelming him with enbaces but his gaze remained on the her. A look of pure shock.

The focus turned back to her.

"Katherine come meet your father," said Celebrian overjoyed. She reluctantly stepped forward and allowed herself to be pulled to where her father now sat.

"My daughteryou are home and so grwn up!" He marveled.

"Hello Ada," she said balrely a whisper.

"Is that all you canssay Ada?" He asked smiling. He looked he r up and down ans noticed her hair just barly over her shoulders it had been cut. She held herself as if she was a full grown adult of noblilty.

"I'm glad to see you, Ada," she replied.

"My daughter my how you've grown," he marveled.

"I know Ada," she replied stiffly.

"So tell us your story and your life don't leave a single thing out," blurted out Elladan unable to contain his curiosity any longer.

"Might as well get comfortable," she smiled.

"Elladan don't harass your sister," scolded Celebrian rolling her eyes. "Honestly no matter how old you get you still are as inquisitive as ever," she muttered under breathe.

"No it's perfectly alright my friends and adpoted siblings always do that to me back home," she replied.

"Siblings?" Asked Elrond. "What!"

"Ada didn't you know I mean weren't you sent mounthy updated from Mithrandir?" She asked.

"I'm afraid with father fading we might have neglected the messages," replied Arwen thinking of how over the years the health of her father deteriorating.

"Well I suppose I will have to tell you then," she sighed. "You all might want to get comfortable we'll be here for quite a long time."

"When I left the land of Valionor for the Golden City of Asguard I began my studies in not only the arts of Magic but the tactics of warfare and weaponry. As I grew I began to train with others who were to become the next Defenders of Light. We grew closer and so did my relationship with the Royal Family who took me in to their home and raised me. I grew close to their sons and as we grew we began to call each other brother and sister. The King and Queen went through the rituals of making me their adopted daughter by social standards. Then I was made one of the airs to the throne and a few years after that I joined the Defenders of Light to fight the Shadow. Those years were the happiest years being with friends and finally finding myself after many years of wondering. By the end of our training we parted ways until we are needed. That was a year ago since then I've just been everywhere I guess travelling and exploring," She replied turning her gaze out the window.

"You are here to stay are you not?" asked Elrond.

"No I have to do what I was sent away to do fight the new force that threatens the world of men," she replied.

"You mean that hasn't been taken care of?" asked Erond.

"No Ada we have yet to start the long struggle to freedom. It shall be another year if we're lucky for the spell that binds the Shadow to remains intact," she replied.

"So you shall leave us then?" Questioned Elrohir harshly.

"Brother do not be so harsh on me I was not the one who chose to leave," she shot back her fiery personality coming as her patience wore thin. "I was chosen for this task when I was not even old enough to think and decide for myself. Forced to except a task I had no say in!"
