It was dusk when the decision was made. She and the child would go forth that very night from Eregion before anyone suspected anything.
The moon was high overhead as the young Elf made her move. She and her lover said their quiet goodbyes at the east gate before she took the small bundle tightly in her arms and disappeared into the blackness of the night.

Nearly 100 years later, Tarahawen sat on a pavilion overlooking the Sea. The small Elf played around her.
"Stay away from the edge Lhun." She called to her daughter.
"Okay Mama." The young Elf responded "I will."
Tarahawen smiled and looked out to sea, knowing her lover would send for her in a matter of months, as soon as the shadow's danger had passed Eregion. She was so far off in her dreams that she didn't hear Cìrdan and a stranger come up behind her.
"Lady Tarahawen," The second Elf said suddenly, making her turn round, "I bring news."
The little Elf stopped playing as she watched the stranger whisper in her mother's ear. Her mother shook her head and burst into tears.
"Mama!" The girl cried, "Mama what's wrong? Mama please, tell me what's wrong!"
"Come here Lhun." Cirdan said soothingly, taking the girl into his arms, "Mama needs to be alone right now."
"Mama doesn't need to be alone! Mama needs to be with me!" Lhun cried as Cirdan took her away from the platform, "Mama tell them you need me!"
