A/N: It's me again! Hmm, that's odd. When I did the math using A Guide
to Tolkien's Middle Earth I got 230. Oh well, only 40 years difference.
Thanks for the info! It really, really helps! This insures to be a short
story, more of a linking story then one of great importance. I think this
is the last chapter and I'm going to put in an epilogue!

Chapter Seven
Rhiadrieal pushed several errant strands of black hair out of her face and stared at her father again. "The War's over? We're going to Gondor?" she asked, wide eyed.
Elrond nodded and then smiled when his daughter hugged him and then exclaimed that she would need to go pack and scurrying off. "So, we are going to Gondor?" Mith asked, melting out of the shadows.
"Must you always sneak up on people?" Elrond asked. "Yes."
"Not always," Mith replied. "I guess I'll be playing nurse maid."
"Elmoth is coming," Elrond confirmed. "Rhiadrieal wouldn't have it any other way."
"When it comes to her family she's very insistent," Mith mused. "Who's going to keep her from charging over there and leaving the rest of the company behind?"
"I was hoping you would," Elrond said.
"I have nurse maid duty," Mith retorted. "I can't watch your wayward child."
"That leaves me," Elrond sighed.
"Actually, do you really think it will be that bad if she does?" Mith asked, raising an eyebrow.
"No."
"I don't mind taking care of Elmoth, he is such a darling child and that's it that we need to worry about."
"Good."

Rhiadrieal urged Star Gazer into a gallop, she had left the company of her father's people earlier that day, they were nearing Minas Tirith (A/N: I think it was Minas Tirith they were at, but I'm not sure). She scanned the horizon looking for anyone. There. Golden hair, long, an elf. Legolas she thought overjoyed and turned Gazer towards him. When she got closer, his identity was confirmed, this was Legolas. "Legolas!" she cried out.
"Rhiadrieal?" he asked uncertainly and then beamed. Rhiadrieal pulled Gazer up to a halt beside Legolas. Then, with almost no grace, she half dismounted half fell out of the saddle into Legolas' arms. She looked at him and then kissed him. Legolas was the first to pull away and look into Rhiadrieal's eyes. "I missed you terribly," he murmered. "You don't seem to have changed a bit. Where's Elmoth?"
"Your son is with Mith, they should be here later today. I got frustrated with the slow pace of the company and left early this morning," Rhiadrieal said, grinning. "I missed you too. Come, you must inform me on everything that has happened." Rhiadrieal took his hand in hers and dragged him towards the city.
