Episode 2: Lethal advises.

(Legolas Voice)

"Sir, sir." One of my men said at dusk middle point bowing his head on respect as he saw Aragorn was also there. "I… bring news."

"It's ok. King Aragorn is friend, speak freely." I told him.

"We have found an orcs gang coming towards here, Legolas." The man said worried. "It must be about ten and they bring a huruk with them."

"Then send some of your men to fight them." I told him.

"What is weird is they are so close to us and on such a funny group." Aragorn said then.

"With my respects…" My man said. "We think they are following something or someone."

That made us go a bit confused. I would have expected him to tell me not just that but also who or what were they following.

"And you have still not seen what is it?" Aragon asked him. "I mean… your kind has a great developed sight sense."

"It doesn't help much if what they are chasing is not visible or hiding for a reason or another." I said.

Then another man came running.

"Lord Legolas!" He said. "An orcs group at the north edge. We are fighting them."

"I'll give a hand." Aragon said.

"Let's go." I said.

It didn't take us too long to reach that part of the forest where a battle was being held. There was about twenty two orcs still alive and two creatures that looked as cave trolls. Ten of my people were already fighting them and some archers were crouched trying to get the orc forces. So Aragorn took his sword out as I did too. We began fighting arm against arm and suddenly I saw how some orcs began falling next to me. In less than a minute all the orcs were death a one of my men was badly wounded. And Aragorn had a sword against his throat while a person on armour held it.

Then it fell down to its knees and it fainted.

"Wow, I thought he would kill me." Aragorn said. "Before he fell down."

I then kneeled down to remove the helmet and I saw a long red hair with same face signs as my own kind ones yet his face was certainly really dirty in dirt and dry blood.

Suddenly we heard some orcs shouts and I held the warrior up with the help of Aragorn and my first trust man.

"Let's take him to a safe place." I said. "We have to heal him."

"How is he?" Aragorn asked me. "Has he awake?"

"I don't think we made the correct idea on it all." I said. "Well, we will see if my suspects were fine or not. Soon, I have to go and check up on him. He seems to have awakened on a non peaceful way."

"I can remember how 'peaceful' he was." Aragorn told me rubbing his neck.

"Anyway, I think he was not enough well to be a serious problem right now." I added.

Something inside me was fighting, a part said I was right and the foreigner could not fight because he was still weak and another said I was somehow mistaken.

Anyway, when we arrived the room where he was resting we saw my second voice was not mistaken. The foreigner had sheltered behind my cousin Órelindë and he was pulling a dage against her neck menacingly.

"Please, calm up." I told him on elfish. "None of us want to hurt you. We are friends."

"Meldo?" He said with a soft voice, and then he sheltered again behind the woman. "Man nályë? (Who are you)"

"Im Legolas. Telin le thaed. (I'm Legolas. I've come to help you.)" I told him trying to make him lower his weapon.

Aragorn then looked at us as I suppose he could also understand it all. Anyway, the man noticed him too and pressed the dage against the neck a steady again as he pointed to him with his head.

"Im Aragorn o Gondorello." He answered him himself as if he noticed what he meant by pressing the weapon again against my cousin's neck.

"Man ná esselya? (What is your name?)" I then asked him. "Mallo tulalyë? (Where have you come from?)"

"Im Eärwen Faelivrin. (My name is Eärwen Faelivrin)" He, that was she, said. "Tulan Rivendell (I come from Rivendell).Et Eärello Endorenna utúlien (From the Great Sea I'd arrive the Middle Earth)." She added putting away her dage to fall on her knees.

((Excuse me but it's hard for me to write it on Kenya or elf's language so I think I'll type it on English but black when it's elfish language. Excuse for the break. ))

"You are still a bit weak after the fight, friend." I said. "You should rest a bit."

"No, I'm in danger." She said trying to stand up. "If I stay you will also be in danger."

"They can give you shelter and protection here." Aragorn said then.

She then shook her head.

"I need to find the three elfish heads and advise them." She kept on. "My old village was attacked by orcs now rejoined by something evil and next step will be the rest of the middle lands. They need to know."

Then Aragorn looked at me and I did same for him. That could explain a lot, but we could not believe the one we once destroyed could have survived.

"But Sauron was destroyed." Aragorn said.

"The ring was destroyed." I agreed. "It can't be him."

"It's not Sauron." She said. "We can't name him."

Days went by and little by little she seemed to go better. Aragorn then left for his kingdom in order to take care of his domains and protect the people living at them.

So, from while to while I used to get to her area and visit her. That way I learned that she could speak Kenya because she told me her mother language was a dialect from our language, two Dwarfs languages and also Common language or human one.

Then I began telling her about our history there and she turned out to be a great pupil who enjoyed every single new knowledge she got especially when they came from maps and activities. She spoke me about what was on the other side of the sea and I enjoyed with her tales.

That way she ended by getting over her wounds and walking again by her own feet without help of walking sticks.

The same day I was to finally ask her if she would leave that day with the rest of our women for a safer place I found her looking to the horizon at a high branch my men had settled a little surveillance platform.

"You should not be so high when you can still go dizzy and fall from here." I told her. "Haven't my men tried to stop you?"

"I'd like to see you trying it too." She answered me. "And yes, they tried, but you know you men don't fight women. It's not proper."

"You speak as if you could fight." I told her in fun sitting next to her. "And what can you say? Any news?"

"There are some orc parties rising over there." She said pointing with her hands and whole arms. "There, there and there. I'm a bit worried of them growing up too strong."

"Hum." I said. "We began noting it days ago."

"And why didn't you tell me?" She asked me. "Oh, I know. I don't care, I'm just a woman."

"I didn't tell you because I thought you would not mind it." I said. "You could not have done anything because you were still getting over it. And now… I came to inform you the women will be travelling to the north to avoid the danger again."

"Fine." She said nodding. "I'm staying. I want to take part on this war."

"You should leave this on our hands." I told her. "Aragorn will be fighting too."

"So, there's another reason for me staying here and facing the orcs. But don't worry. I'll leave tomorrow if I can, I promise."

And so was what she did in fact. She left the following day without even us noticing it. When I asked the men who was supposed to be guarding the forest they told me that whether they were in the middle of the changing time or suddenly they had felt a bit drowsy so as they fell asleep for some minutes they didn't saw anything. Furthermore, before she left, a weird and thick fog laid at our forest.

"I suppose she has taken advantage of it for running away." My best mate said. "Want us to follow her, milord?"

"No." I said. "We will surely see her again. I have that feeling."

"As you wish." He answered me back. "Our men will be ready for leaving on a couple of hours."

"You have three for joining a little group that will go with me to Rivendell." I said. "We will answer to the call we got some days after that unexpected arrival."

"Yes my lord Legolas." He said bowing before leaving.

I packed the little things I needed for this time travel and went to get my horse ready. While I was there I checked the weird woman had also taken her horse, as all her belongings plus an arch from our storage where she left the following note:

"I'm sorry to have taken this, but I couldn't keep on travelling without a bow and arrows and mine were broken during the fight.

Lord Legolas from this wood, I'll pay the price you have for well to sell it to me when we met again. Cause I'm sure we will soon met again.

Eärwen Faelivrin"

I had to smile when I was read that note by my first mate.

"I think that just for that she would deserve it to be for free." I said. "I could never make such a brave one to pay for a weapon when she was in need of it."
