"Ada, help!" shrieked Arwen, throwing herself into her parents' drawing room, her eyes wide in absolute fear. Elrond jolted to his feet immediately, Celebrian right behind him, and Elladan and Elrohir appeared in the doorway to the other room.
"What is it?" Elrond asked immediately, catching his young daughter as she gasped in low breaths, her face paled with shock.
"There was – 'Restor and me was by the pond and catching crawfish and then he went to get the bucket for the fishes and there was something!" She stopped for only a moment, Celebrian curling a comforting arm around her from behind. "And he screamed and threw the bucket and then he fell over and he's not moving and he's so scary and white! Then I was calling for help and Glorfy came from the guardhouse, and he put his hand over Erestor's mouth and told me to get you as fast as I could!"
"Oh, raich," Elrond breathed, and left hastily, the door slamming behind him. Elladan and Elrohir followed, practically stumbling over each other in their haste, and Celebrian comforted Arwen as she sobbed in confusion and terror for her mentor.
