A/N: Sorry, edited Chapter 3. Kinda forgot the part pf Gimli xD THANK YOU
The Fellowship arrives at Caras Galadhon. With a glow issuing forth from them, the Lord and Lady of Lothlórien descend to meet the Fellowship, hand in hand. Aragorn touches his head reverently in greeting. The rest of the Fellowship stares in awe
"Nine there are here yet ten there were set out from Rivendell. Tell me where is Gandalf? For I much desire to speak with him" Celeborn spoke
Galadriel looks at Aragorn, reading the answer in his eyes
"He has fallen into shadow" she looks around at the Fellowship
"The Quest stands upon the edge of a knife. Stray but a little and it will fail to the ruin of all." Galadriel stated
Galadriel looks at Boromir with a piercing gaze which he can't stand. He starts shaking and casts his eyes downwards
"Yet hope remains while the Company is true." Galadriel continued
She looks at Eyriél and smiles. "Eyriél Undómiel, daughter of Lord Elrond, my siel (granddaughter)" said Galadriel, "haruni(grandmother)" Eyriél replied with a smile
Gimli, nudged Legolas, Legolas ignored the dwarf. Gimli tried again by nudging Legolas harder, Legolas almost fell down.
"You have no match for my stubbornness. Tell me, what are they talking about, elf?" Gimli asked Legolas,
Legolas replied in annoyance while regaining his composure "They were greeting each other. Lady Eyriél is Lady Galadriel's granddaughter, you see. You like her, don't you, dwarf?"
"I was just admiring, the Lady. A great dwarf knows a pretty lady when he sees one" Gimli said, "Dwarves" Legolas said rolling his eyes
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Go now and rest" Galadriel stated to them
"Welcome Frodo of the Shire. One who has seen the Eye!" Galadriel whispered inside Frodo's mind.
Later, back on the ground, an area has been provided for them to rest in. The hobbits settled down. Legolas was on his way out, to go get some fresh air.
"Elf, where are you off to? Following the She-elf? What's up with you elves? Walking in the middle of the night, or…" Gimli spoke
"Or what, dwarf?"
"Or you and her can't forget about what happened in Moria. Didn't think we'll see it, don't you? Well, the black-haired hobbit didn't see it, but WE did!" Gimli laughed while smoking his pipe, and then making a smooch face, teasing Legolas. Legolas flashed a deadly stare at the dwarf, and walked away.
Most of the fellowship fell asleep. Galadriel walks by in silence. Frodo wakes up with a start and proceeds to follow her. Galadriel walks down to her garden and fills the ewer with water. She turns towards Frodo, not surprised to see him there
"Will you look into the mirror?" Galadriel told
"What will I see?" Frodo asked
"Even the wisest cannot tell. For the mirror shows many things." Galadriel shared
She begins to pour the water into the silver basin
Frodo steps up to the mirror to take a look. Then suddenly the mirror clears and shows a vision of Eyriél, Legolas, Merry and Pippin, then Sam. He sees Bag End, then the burning of Hobbiton, the enslavement of the Hobbits and the destruction of the Shire. Then suddenly the Eye of Sauron fills the entire mirror. The Ring hanging from Frodo's neck pulls him closer to the water. Steam begins to curl up from the basin as Sauron speaks to Frodo in Black Speech. Terrified, he grabs the Ring and jerks back, throwing himself off the step and landing on his back on the grass
"The Fellowship is breaking. It has already begun. He will try to take the Ring. You know of whom I speak. One by one it will destroy them all." Galadriel spoke in his mind
"If you ask it of me, I will give you the One Ring." Frodo replied to Galadriel
Opening his palm, he offers the Ring to her
"You offer it to me freely. I do not deny that my heart has greatly desired this" Galadriel said with all honesty
She approaches Frodo, her hand open. Her image begins to change. She returns to normal with a scared look on her face
"I pass the test! I will diminish, and go into the West, and remain Galadriel"
"I cannot do this alone." Frodo admitted
she turned to face him
"You are a Ring-bearer, Frodo. To bear a Ring of power is to be alone. This task was appointed to you and if you do not find a way, no one will" Galadriel spoke
"Then I know what I must do. It's just… I'm afraid to do it." Frodo admitted
Galadriel bends down to meet him at eye level
"Even the smallest person can change the course of the future." Galadriel said encouraging him, and at the same time ending their conversation for tonight.
Frodo wandered off, until he bumped into someone, it was Eyriél. Wearing what seems like a long white dress that makes her aura shine even more.
"Frodo, you look troubled" Eyriél said, noticing
"Eyriél, I don't know…I think it's too much for me" Frodo blurted out
"Come, Frodo. I'll show you something"
Eyriél brought Frodo somewhere deep in the Forest, giving them a greater view of the city of Lorien.
"Eyriél, why did you join the fellowship?" Frodo said, curious
"I know what you're thinking, Frodo. You're wondering why I didn't stay at home where I will be much safer than going through this journey. I will be honest to you, Frodo. At first I just want to prove myself to my father." Eyriél looked beyond the skies, "Now, I think there is something else more important than that. I don't regret being part of this mission, and I didn't regret meeting friends like you"
Frodo stared at the lady in front of him, her aura shines brighter than before, he can feel it.
"You're brave, I'm envious of you. You elves are not scared of anything" Frodo looked at Eyriél and then shifted his gaze away from her. Eyriél touched his cheek, which made Frodo look at her.
"You are also brave, Frodo, do not be envious. Being strong doesn't mean that you don't have to be afraid of anything. When you took the responsibility of taking the ring to Mt. Doom, you are the bravest of us all, because you did what anyone else can't" Eyriél said, with a reassuring smile. Frodo smiled back at her.
After talking about the Shire and the Elven City, both decided that it's time to rest. When they were on their way back up the trees,
"Eyriél wait, I want to thank you for what you did, it really helped me. Close your eyes for me" Frodo said, expressing his thanks
Eyriél closed her eyes and kneeled to Frodo's height, Frodo honestly plans to surprise Eyriél, Frodo leans closer to Eyriél's face when he suddenly saw Legolas, looking intensely at them from above. Frodo who is frantically nervous right now, decided to kiss her nose instead. Eyriél opened her eyes in surprise.
"Good night, Lady Eyriél" Frodo moved past Eyriél, leaving her behind, Legolas jumped down not making a sound. Eyriél turned around, not expecting Legolas to be in front of her, their faces inches apart. The accidental kiss replays on her mind.
Eyriél's face turned red instantly. "Move aside, GREENLEAF!" Eyriél blurted out, and ran away from him
When Eyriél was lying to rest, Why does he have to be there all the time. His presence still bothers me. Eyriél forced herself to sleep
In Orthanc in Isengard, Saruman and Lurtz are standing in the central chamber
The Uruk-Hai wear their armor and are given their weapons. They receive a white handprint on their heads and faces, signifying Saruman's army. They then assemble before him
Saruman: Hunt them down. Do not stop until they are found. You do not know pain. You do not know fear. You will taste man flesh!
Saruman turns to Lurtz
Saruman: One of the halflings carries something of great value. Bring them to me alive and unspoiled. Kill the others!
In Lothlorien, early in the morning before their departure, the Elves prepared a feast for them. Aragorn and the rest of the Fellowship woke up early, Merry and Pippin were having a laugh with Eyriél while Frodo and Sam listens to them.
"Look at them! Having her with us is not so bad after all" Gimli said watching them.
"Not bad indeed, she is a good fighter too, as expected from an elf, right Legolas?" Aragorn agreed, tapping Legolas on the shoulder, who just arrived.
"She can fight" Legolas said crossing his hands over his chest, while staring at Eyriél. A sense of acceptance from his eyes can be seen.
"Even if she's a female, aye! She really knows her weapon! I saw her fight! She is remarkable! Maybe I should ask her to teach me" Gimli said,
"You still can't beat me" Legolas teased, Gimli growls
Everyone was called to eat, Eyriél was left with two empty chairs, the first one beside Frodo and the other one, beside Legolas, but before Eyriél can reach the chair beside Frodo, Gimli snatched it away, chuckling when he finally sat. Eyriél had no choice but to sit beside Legolas.
They began eating, but as expected of Gimli, he can't hold the chance of teasing the two elves.
"Almost forgot, where did you two elves go last night?" Gimli asked, Eyriél kicked him from under the table, secretly. The rest of the fellowship looked at them both for an answer. Frodo immediately replied.
"Lady Eyriél was with me last night, she showed me a beautiful view of the city"
"Why didn't you take us too?" Pippin said, "Lady Eyriél doesn't want to wake the others, you were all fast asleep" Frodo saved Eyriél. They went on with chatting, while eating Eyriél grabbed for bread, and Legolas grabbed for one too, their hands touched it other, Eyriél moved hers away immediately, turned her face away from Legolas sight and continued eating.
"Ey girlie! Your face is all red, are you sick?" Gimli noticed, Eyriél nods her head in response. Thankful that Gimli didn't pressed on any further.
On shore, cloaks are fastened around the Fellowship with green, silver-veined leaf-brooches. Elves prepare for the departure of the Fellowship. Legolas is among them, shifting parcels into a set of boats provided by the Galadhrim. He holds up a thin wafer for Merry and Pippin to see, as they sit in a boat.
"Lembas! Elvish Way-bread. One small bite is enough to fill the stomach of a grown man." Legolas informed the two hobbits
He walks up onto shore, leaving the Hobbits by themselves.
"How many did you eat?" Merry asked
"Four." Pipin said with a burp, Eyriél giggled hearing it.
the Fellowship climb into the boats. Frodo sits in one of the boats they have been given, together with Sam and Aragorn.
Legolas helps Gimli onboard "Oy! Lady Eyriél, you're going with us!" shouted Gimli, Eyriél jumped on the boat, with Legolas again. Galadriel gave each of the fellowship, Elven gifts before leaving. Eyriél noticed Legolas new bow. Eyriél smiles remembering, what her grandmother gave her.
"My gift for you, my dear child, is my blessing. You are a brave elf. I know you'll do what is right. You'll learn a lot from this road that you took. Be safe, and protect the people who are dear to you. You will always be guided by the Light"
Legolas's eyes stare distantly. He smiles, remembering.
"My gift for you, Legolas, is a bow of the Galadhrim, worthy of the skill of our woodland kin." Galadriel smiles, and turns to Merry and Pippin.
"These are the daggers of the Noldorin. They have already seen service in war."
"Do not fear, young Peregrin Took. You will find your courage."
Sam also recalls the Lady's gift to him.
"And for you, Samwise Gamgee: Elven rope, made of hithlain."
Gimli sits in his boat with Legolas, a faraway look in his eyes, a faint smile upon his face.
"I have taken my worst wound at this parting, having looked my last upon that which is fairest. Haugh, henceforth I will call nothing fair unless it be her gift to me." Gimli said
"What was it?" Eyriél asked, curious
"I asked her for one hair from her golden head. She gave me three." Gimli said with glee
Legolas and Eyriél smiles for Gimli, both happy for the dwarf.
"Farewell, Frodo Baggins. I give you the light of Eärendil, our most beloved star." Galdariel's voice said
Galadriel raises her hand in farewell as the Fellowship canoes down the river.
