Chapter Two
I couldn't wait to start my journey to Rivendell I was bouncing on the heels of my feet when I was saddling up Starburst. I'm guessing that my parents could sense my excitement because they started to chuckle. They knew why I was excited it would be the first time in my life that I would be outside of Narnia's borders. My whole family was in the courtyard to say farewell to Glenstorm, Griffin, and myself. While I was talking to my Aunts and mother my father and Uncles were talking to Glenstorm and Griffin most likely telling them to protect me at all cost like they didn't already know that I swear the men in my family are way to over protective of the women in it. At the moment Aunt Susan is going over manners when I'm at the council "You must sit up straight, be polite to others, not space out, and by all means don't insult anyone" she said. "I know Aunt Susan it's not like there's going to be no one I know there" she look like she was going to say there was before I continued "is there going to be people I don't know most likely but Lord Elrond well introduce everyone before the meeting that way we know each other's name and title" I said. By then the men had returned to are group and where chuckling at what I just said while Uncle Edmund like always had to say something smart "Mia you certainly are living up to the title of Wise" all while laughing.
After hugging my family and saying goodbye we left for Rivendell to get there we would have to pass through the Mirkwood my father sent word ahead of our groups need to travel through the forest to King Thranduil he wrote back saying that he would grant us passage through the forest as his son is going to the council as while and we could travel together. I heard stories of the Mirkwood from my mother it used to be beautiful, lush and green but now it is dark, dangerous and filled with giant spiders but as long as we had an Elven guide we wouldn't get lost in the forest. Traveling with a centaur and griffin made it easier than it seemed we would stop less and have eyes in the sky. As we were approaching the Mirkwood borders Griffin spotted three elves on horses that must be our guides and flew down to tell us. When we got there I decided to introduce us "Hello I am Princess Amara daughter of High King Peter of Narnia and my friends are Glenstorm and Griffin." I said. "Mae govannen Princess Amara I am Legolas and these are Beriadan and Veryan and we are ready to go when you are" he said. "Please lead the way Lord Legolas and you can call Amara or Mia everyone does" I replied as we went on a path that went through the forest. "Alright then Amara then you can just call me Legolas." "Should Griffin fly or walk through the forest?" I asked really wanting to know. "He can fly just not to high I suggest a couple feet above us that way he can keep up with the horses and won't get lost." he replied. We could all tell that Griffin was happy with that statement but said nothing. We made through the forest without getting attacked and made camp at the Carrock were the skin changer Breon used to live in peace it is a beautiful rock feature and I'm surprised that erosion hasn't gotten to it yet.
That is when conversation started up again "If I may ask why would your father send you to be one of the representatives of Narnia?" Legolas asked. I thought before I replied "My father is sending me to the council because Narnia needs him my mother and my aunts and uncles. Along with that I am the oldest one of the children seeing as my younger cousins are of the ages 11 to 5 so it would be foolish to send them. To top it off I am supposed to be High Queen of Narnia when my father decides to hand done the throne. "I replied then I added "the reason why Glenstorm and Griffin are coming with me is because they represent the many races of Narnia." Over dinner it was quite until Glenstorm said "If we wake up before dawn tomorrow we can reach Rivendell by noon tomorrow." Everyone agreed to that idea but before we went to bed we assigned a watch of course the men insisted that I didn't need to take a watch so I went sleep. But when Glenstorm was woken up for his watch I awoke as will "What do you see in the stars Glennstorm?" I asked. "My Lady I see a small bit of darkness in the sky but remember that there is always hope in these troubling times. "he replied. Then left me to ponder his words in silence.
The next day we awoke before dawn and eat a small breakfast of bread and cheese and started out for Rivendell once again. It was agreed this morning the Griffin would fly ahead to scout and come warn us of any dangers. Throughout the morning nothing interesting happened it wasn't until we reached the border of Rivendell that something happened. Griffin reported that there was a small group of orcs ahead I slowed down and nocked an arrow in my bow and waited for a chance to shoot. The orcs hopped out of the bushes and charged at us I brought down six while the others brought the rest down I have seen Griffin and Glenstorm fight but Legolas fought much like my mother and Aunts Susan and Lucy with grace and agility. Then we hear the sound of hooves and we are met with Elladan and Elrohir Lord Elrond's twin sons. Who are both tall with long brown hair and mischievous and wise silver eyes. "Found yourself a bit of trouble now didn't you Princess how does it feel to be let out side of your kingdoms borders?" the twins asked. "It feels wonderful to be let outside of Narnia's borders Elladan and Elrohir and I have asked you many times before to call me Mia not Princess because that is not my name just my title."I replied. They of course didn't hear a word I said because they said "Come on Princess let us escort you to Rivendell that way you don't find any more trouble." I wanted to smack those smirks of their identical faces but decided against it remembering my Aunt Susan's words with me before I left for Rivendell.
As we entered the city I couldn't help but to stare at it in awe it was truly beautiful and reminded me of home in Cair Paravel. The difference is that instead of bingeing by the ocean it was by a beautiful river that had a waterfall in coming down into the city. Elladan asked "Does it remind you of Cair Paravel Mia?" "Yes it does remind me of my home except instead of the ocean there is a river but I will miss the naiads and mermaids that live close to Cair Paravel." Sensing that Legolas's to friends didn't like what I just said because they haven't spoken one word to me and speak elvish to Legolas all while glaring at my company. I hope that this distaste doesn't come up in the council along with the fact that I am a woman in a council for men. All my worries go away as I see Arwen exiting her home with a big smile on her face when she sees me. I say goodbye to the twins, Legolas, and our company to go with Arwen for some time to catch up. "How are you Arwen?" "I am well what about yourself." "Tired but glad to see you Arwen my cousins have been driving me crazy with all their pranks and whatnot." "I am glad you are here Mia so will Estel." "How is he Arwen?" "He is well and just finished bringing four hobbits to Rivendell with the help of Gorfindel." "I take it that one of these hobbits is the Ringbearer?" "Yes, Frodo he came here before the rest because he was stabbed by a Morgul- Blade." "Oh my is he alright if my Aunt Lucy was here she could've given him some of her cordial." "He is fine but the wound will be with him forever. Let's get you to your room for rest there will be a feast tonight with the representatives of the races or we could stay in your room in and eat." "I prefer that then already announcing that a woman will join the council tonight Arwen."
We talked long into dinner time about the Ring and our families Lord Elrond came to check on us and to make sure I sent word to my family that I arrived safely. I told him I already sent word then asked him where the council was being held to which he replied with Estel will escort you to the council tomorrow. An hour later Arwen left and I changed into my nightgown and laid down on the silk sheets and fell asleep.
