During their time in Lothlorien, Celeborn and Galadriel had dispatched a number of tutors to teach Solomon and his family in the tongues of Middle Earth and everything there was to know about their new home. Even Arya and Diva were taught to speak in the Sindarin tongue. The ones who showed the most interest were the young Queens, Kaya and Dina, and their Chevaliers, Adam and William. They were young and adventurous, and readily absorbed all the knowledge given to them. Even Nathan, was captured by the performing arts of the Elves, and soon began to work with the musicians and the artists. Content to spend his time with his twin children, Solomon spent the most time in his talan, caring for his little family.

"You know, Solomon Oji-san..." Kaya said when she visited her uncle with her sister in their free time, "I hear that there is a shortage of physicians here in Lothlorien." Solomon had been a practicing doctor after the First World War where they came from, and was then the head of a pharmaceutical empire. It was downright obvious that he was more than a competent doctor, and had graduated from both Oxford and Cambridge Universities with top honors. "Perhaps work could get your mind off your worries?"

Solomon then looked towards the room where his wife was sleeping… For some reason, a cocoon had not formed around her, leaving her to the eyes of the world. Even their daughters had understood that their mother would not awake any time soon, and they had accepted them. "I have no worries, as of now, Kaya" he said, "But who will watch over my little girls and Saya?"

Dina, Kaya's twin smiled and led him towards the balcony. "Can you see those outposts not far from here?" she asked. There were Elves there, at least two in one single outpost. "Well, technically, you are staying in a very well-protected section of Lothlorien. And as we have already learnt, Elves have heightened senses like ours, so they will know if anything happens to Oba-chan…"

He raised an eyebrow at his nieces, and asked, "And the girls?"

"We'll leave them with Kai and Mao, since it is practically impossible to open a restaurant on the top of the trees; I think that they will have a grand time baby-sitting for you," Dina added. "They did for us…" And then, there was the dashing March-Warden, Haldir. If Undomelinn's words were true, he was rather taken towards Diva. He could not take his eyes of the child, her grand-aunt had told her, her sister and the Chevaliers before.

Solomon pondered their words for a moment. He also knew that he could live for all eternity under the charity of the Elves, while unable to deny that he was rather fascinated in their medical studies. "All right, you win" he said, and suddenly saw a piece of paper before his eyes. It was a notice from the Healer's Department, stating his salary, the hours he was needed to work, as well as what was needed of him to do as a leader of a team of 20 novice Healers. "Aren't you efficient, my dears?" he asked sarcastically, until he sensed the presence of two other Chevaliers.

"Actually, Solomon, I sent your application." said a youth with brown hair and steel-colored eyes. "In fact, a few elleth (female Elves) were very excited when they heard that you were going to work with them, what with your charming looks and gentlemanly ways…"

Kaya swatted her Chevalier with the nearest possible cushion she could reach. "Excuse me, Mr. Adam "I-Don't-Use-My-Logic" Thomas," she said "If memory serves, you were the one who married Solomon Oji-san and Oba-chan." She rolled her sapphire eyes, and kicked him out of the way as she awaited Solomon's reaction with her sister. "Don't go breaking the hearts of innocent girls now"

"Look, whatever you do, you cannot deny that Solomon is among the most irresistible men regardless of species!" Adam retorted. "He's the one that will give Haldir a run for his money..." Ah, so that's why, Solomon thought to himself. "Do you know that with every female head that Haldir turns, I lose twenty bucks to William?" This time, even Solomon could not help the young Chevalier out of the trouble he was in.

Finding it hard to weasel his way out of it, and finding it even harder to deny that he was bringing in a rather lucrative income that would feed his little family quite comfortably… Solomon said, "Alright, Kaya, stop trying to kill Adam. I'm in, and you win." Within seconds, Kaya stopped trying to strangle her Chevalier and gave him a high-five. "What did I just get myself into?"

The other Chevalier, William, one with emerald eyes and raven hair, laughed with his Queen, Dina, and said, "Well, my dear, dear mentor. When you have two overly-thoughtful and caring nieces, paired with equally nosey Chevaliers, you will have no choice but to put your fate in their hands. Besides, you are quite the linguist, and by now you would have some level of high-proficiency in all the Elf-Tongues, so communication would not be a problem"

Just then, Undomelinn appeared with Diva and Arya, and said, "For some reason, there was a sudden influx of Elf-maids around the talan… Please, tell me that Solomon did not apply for that Head Healer position."

Without the need of telling, her sapphire eyes then turned towards the many pairs of eyes around them. "Miss Eldaraerlinn, I did." he answered. Undomelinn then dropped to her knees and began to pray fervently.

"Oh Valar above, please help the elleth of Lothlorien," she muttered beneath her breath. "The Chevalier Solomon Goldsmith is to be the Head Healer over 20 adolescent elleth, and the poor man is married, for goodness' sakes… Please, protect him for the sake of my sleeping niece Saya, and my grand-nieces Arya and Diva. I am willing to decrease two centuries of my life if you can grant this prayer…"

Please Saya, if you can hear us, give me the strength to live through this torture, Solomon said wordlessly to his sleeping beloved before he was mobbed by the members of his family. Just wait until Kai is awake…
