Sauron came regularly to personally administer torture, Luriel kept her promise and eased the pain as much as she could, it taxed upon her greatly but her determination pushed her through it. She sensed the inevitable when she saw the anger in Sauron's eyes when he came one final time. This time, he showed no mercy, anger pushed him on, causing the death of the wife and Elfling. Celebrimbor cried in anguish, unaware that Luriel had taken the pain away from them so they passed peacefully. Sauron slowly turned to Celebrimbor who sobbed heavily, drowning in grief. Sauron approached Celebrimbor and slowly and deliberately beat him to death. Luriel had to watch in horror as his body was dragged from the room, the other two were left behind. Luriel fell to her knees, new tears watered her eyes. A little bit of her hope shattered away, replaced with doubt. She was again alone in the darkness.
Days melted away, she almost did not hear the sounds of battle outside the tower. She painfully sat up slowly, listening very carefully. She used all her remaining strength to search outwards with her mind, trying to investigate the sounds, she found the minds of men and elves alike fighting orcs. She retreated back to her own mind to reserve power. The battle lasted what felt like forever when a sudden explosion filled the air, the burning of her collar lessened and then stopped completely. She felt some of her strength return, enough to reach out with her mind again. Joy filled her as she sensed Sauron was gone, two lone figures heading towards Mount Doom caught her attention she reached further and saw one was an elf and one was a man. Her heart came alive once again when she recognized the elf, it was Elrond. She tried to speak to him, but could only touch the outer layer of his consciousness, he was too concentrated at whatever task he had at hand. She felt her strength quickly draining, she followed them up the mountain, they finally stopped, the man a little behind. Suddenly the man disappeared. She saw her opportunity and pressed further to Elrond's mind.
"Elrond..." he heard as if the voice came from a distance, it was growing louder, "Elrond..."
He recognized the voice, "Luriel? Luriel is that you!" he thought back to her.
"Yes, I am held prisoner in the tallest tower, I ask, no plead for your aid, my strength is waning... hurry..." her voice faded from his mind. She leaned back against the bars, the wave of strength gone, she fought to stay awake, time blurred by, feeling like an eternity before she heard the squeals of dying orcs. She managed to open her eyes part way.
"Luriel!" Elrond exclaimed running over, he immediately knelt beside the cage, he saw the lock on it, his grip on his sword tightened. Standing he raised his sword and swung downwards. The lock held strong Elrond turned to the elven soldiers, "Go and get something to break this lock!" he ordered in elvish. He knelt next to the cage, reaching in he placed a hand on her shoulder. She slowly raised her own hand grabbing his. He moved his grip from her shoulder to her hand. She moved her head, to where she was resting on his hand, seeking as much comfort as she could. Elrond's gaze traveled over Luriel, his eyes widened when he realized she was with child and was fairly far along. Several minutes later, the elves returned with a large ax. The tallest of the guard walked forward swinging the ax downwards holding it with both hands. He did it twice more and finally, the lock gave way. Elrond stood, sliding his hand from hers, he moved quickly and pulled the door opened. He carefully scooped Luriel up in his arms. She sighed in relief, she was finally free.
