This is going to explain how Airion survived, what item he acquired, and what character he met.

Airion

My best friend was dead. There was not a soul left alive on this field. The orc army left along with the Nine Kings. I cried myself dry that night. But I knew I had to pull myself together. I looked at the paper Akron gave me.

"If you are reading this Airion then I am dead. You were like a brother to me. I am pretty sure I died in the battle held on the blood moon (that is when I wrote this.) so this is what I need you to do. Go to my tent. Do not read on until you are there." Respecting his honor I did not read on until I got to his tent.

"Look under my bedroll, there will be a hidden trapdoor." The letter stated. I looked under there and there was a box. "Open the box Airion." I did as the letter said and found a silver ring, a gold ring, a bronze ring, and another silver ring but this was different. It was glowing blue. "I intended on the both of us using these to fight off the Nazgul. These are some of the few test rings of power. They are not connected to the one ring. You can use all four if you feel but, You may overdose on power. Then again your mental charisma is stronger since you are an elf. Avenge me brother. Get Elrond's ring. You will know what to do next. P.S Don't kill her." who do I not kill? And that was it. So I had four prototype rings of power that did not depend on the one ring... That was cool.

"Yes that is very cool." A voice says. This story I have told you happened one month ago. I did not say this story out loud so who is this stranger?

"Who are you?" I say gravely.

"I am someone who wishes to help you." The person says. I draw an arrow and knock it in place and pull back on it.

"You have some explaining." This figure turns around and starts walking. "Where the Hell do you think your going?" I run up to the hooded figure and pull the hood down."

Milee

This ranger pulls my hood down.

"Oh.." he says. "I didn't think you were-" I cut him off.

"A girl? Just because I am a girl does not mean I cannot get through orc camps to get here." Ha. That should make him regret making that comment ever again.

"That is not what I was going to say... I didn't think you were an elf." Great now I feel guilty. Yes I am also an elf. To be honest he looks great for our kind. Maybe in the future... "How did you know of my battle? I am sure I did not say it aloud." He says. It does not seem like he has the same intentions I do right now. Oh well he may change his mind later.

"I can hear thoughts when I am not distracted. I try to hear what he is thinking, I hear nothing... How is he doing this? He does not have the rings on...

"I can block mind readers when I feel it necessary." He says. "A useful skill I picked up one day." No kidding.

"So you need the sapphire ring? I know where Elrond is! I can help!" I say.

"No. I know where it is. Thanks for the offer though." Ouch his words hurt.

"I knew your friend... Akron." I say. "He was referring to me when he said don't kill her."

"Is that so?" Airion says. "Well I cannot allow you to come."

"And why ever not?" I say. There better be a good explanation to not take a beautiful elf like me along right?

"Last time I got attached to someone he died in my arms." He says. "You heard my tale."

So that is it for this chapter. Airion has some powerful rings and has encountered another elf for the first time in his life! Not to mention a cute one lol. Thanks for reading and have a good day. Until the next chapter.
