"Father, she is awake now." A dark haired girl said as Cellin opens her eyes.
Cellin look around her as the dark haired girl rush up to her and help her to sit up. Then, a dark-haired man came up and sat next her.
"Where I am?" Cellin asked.
"I am Lord Elrond Half-elven. You are in Rivendell." He said, "The Last Homely House of the Eastern Sea."
"Rivendell?" Cellin widened her eyes, "I never heard such place before."
"You never have?" Lord Elrond spoke gently, "Oh, I forgot to ask your name. What's your name and where are you from?"
"My name is Cellin and I am from New York City."
"I have never heard about this New York City." He said with curiosity, "Besides, do you know what happen to you?"
"I remember that I was taking medication, but then, my heart started to hurt and I black out."'
"Well, when we found you, your pulse was fading away. Luckily, we were able to save you."
"Good." Cellin sighed with relief, but then she remembers something, "Wait, was I holding anything?"
"Yes, you were." Elrond nodded, "You were holding this flute."
Elrond gave her back her flute and Cellin clutched it tightly. "Thank-you so much for saving me and giving me back my flute."
"Your welcome, efling." Elrond smiled.
"Wait! Elf?" Cellin touch her ears. The tips of her ears are pointed as she touches them. "How could this be?"
"You didn't know that you were an elf."
"No."
"Strange." Elrond frowned, "I must leave for some duties. My daughter, Arwen will help you."
"Thank-you."
Cellin watched as Lord Elrond leaves and his daughter, Arwen helps her get dress.
"You must be Arwen." Cellin said.
"Yes." Arwen smiled, "And you are?"
"My name is Cellin."
"Cellin. What a beautiful name."
"Thank-you." Cellin smiled.
Arwen helped her get dressed. Cellin wore a dark blue dress with a silver belt. Arwen helped her comb her blonde hair.
"Your hair reminds me of my mother's hair, but a bit more golden."
"Really?"
"Yes, my mother's hair was like silver."
"The, where is your mother?"
Arwen stopped brushing her hair and lowered her eyes. "She sailed to the west."
"Oh. I am so sorry that your mother passed away." Cellin placed a gently hand on Arwen's arm.
"No, she didn't pass away. She is just in another place."
"Oh." Cellin said, "I would like to know more about this world, if you don't mind."
"I would love to tell about Middle-Earth." Arwen beamed, "But, you need to drink this. It's for your heart."
"Thank-you." Cellin took the cup and drank it all. It was bitter sweet, but it was for her own health. "Could you not tell anyone about my illness?"
"Of course."
They spent the whole day out at the gardens, talking about Middle-Earth and their families. Soon, they became friends. Cellin told her about her adopted family and how they raised her as their own child. She also showed Arwen her flute that her biological parents left her. Arwen looked at it and told her this is made out of mithril, a rare silver metal.
"Could you play a song for me?" Arwen asked.
"Sure."
Cellin started to play the song. The song filled Rivendell with harmony as Cellin played the song. When Cellin finished playing the song, Arwen clapped at the beautiful performance.
"That was beautiful." Arwen said, "Is there a meaning in this song?"
"It does." Cellin smiled, "It was about the nature I see all around me. It is just breathtaking."
Arwen and Cellin continue to talk until it was dinner time. They went to the dining room and found Lord Elrond and two other male elf.
"Father." Arwen went to kiss his cheek.
"Good evening Lord Elrond." Cellin bowed.
"Good evening to you." Elrond inclined his head, "I would like you to meet my twins, Elladen and Elrohir."
"It is a pleasure to meet you, my lady." Elladen came forward and kissed her hand.
"As for me, too." Elrohir kissed her other hand.
"Thank-you. My name is Cellin." She smiled.
"Hmmmm, Cellin," Elladen said, "It means flowing music."
"It is a beautiful name." Elrohir commented, "And it suits a lovely elf like you."
Cellin blushed at Elrohir comment. "Thank-you."
"Hey, enough with the talking!" Arwen pushed the twins and grab Cellin's arm, "Let's eat!"
The food was delicious. It was perfect for Cellin's taste; simple. The twins asked Cellin if she knows how to ride a horse or can do archery. Cellin told them that she knows how to ride a horse and do archery, but she is not good with a sword.
"Well, since you haven't mastered the sword." Elrohir said as he sips on his wine, "Why don't I teach you how to master the sword?"
"I?" Elladen looked at his twin with disbelief.
"I meant we." Elrohir pointed at his Elladen.
"I would love to learn to from you, men."
"Men?" Arwen looked at Cellin, "They are hardly men. They are more like boys."
"Hey!" The twins exclaimed.
"Enough, children." Elrond cut in and turn to Cellin, "I heard from Arwen that you played a beautiful song at the gardens, today."
"Yes."
"Is it alright if you play a song for us?" Elrond asked, "It would be wonderful to hear a song from you."
"It would be alright."
Cellin took her flute out and played a song that was different than the song she played for Arwen. This time the song was the exact same song she played every night when she was at New York City. The song about the lost child finding her biological parents. When, she finished, her audience clapped at the performance she did.
"This song is incredible." Arwen smiled, "Is there a meaning in it?"
"There is. It is about how a lost child finding her true parents." Cellin lowered her eyes.
"You must be sad, then." Arwen hugged her, "Not knowing your parents."
"You don't know who your parents are?" Elrond asked.
"Yes."
"But, you are a full- blooded elf!" Elrond widened his eyes, "Were you sent to a different world?"
"I don't know. My world is called Earth." Cellin answered, "Is there something wrong?"
"No, there isn't" Elrond said with a sight hesitation. Luckily, no one noticed. There is something that Elrond noticed, but he will keep it as a secret for now. Besides, there is a task he must give Arwen. "Arwen, follow me to my study room. There is something I need to tell you."
"Yes, father." Arwen said as she stands up and followed her father, leaving Cellin with the twins.
