"Ava I'm not sure this is a good idea" Eowyn spoke as she trailed behind "What if he gets angry?" She didn't know much about elves, apparently they were very patient creatures however she didn't wish to test this theory by waking one up in the dead of the night.
"Trust me, it takes a lot to get Elrond angry" Noticing Eowyn concerned face continued "Besides, he probably isn't even sleeping"
"Perhaps we should just wait until mor-"
"No. Because I know you won't sleep, and you need sleep. We're going now. Besides we're here" Reaching a delicate hand out, Ava knocked gently on the door in front of them as Eowyn shifted uncomfortably.
The pair stood awkwardly in the hallway for a moment "Maybe he didn't hear?" Eowyn suggested, already planning an escape route
"No, he has kids. Trust me, he heard it" Sure enough a few moment later the Lord of Rivendell opened the door
Although his face looked rather displeasing at first, the lines in his brow changed from a scowl of displeasure to one of worry "Is everything alright?"
"Yes, well sort of" She smiled sweetly as he frowned at her again
"What did you do?" The older elfs eyes drifted towards Eowyn, with a simple glance up and down Eowy felt as if he had looked into her soul, and was certain he found it unsatisfactory
"Nothing, Could we come in?"
"Of course" stepping aside he opened the door for the two women to enter. Once the door was shut he lit a few more candles, sending a warm glow throughout the room "What's happened then?"
"Eowyn's worried she can't have kids" Ava then gestured to the women standing awkwardly in the room
"I see" Turning around he strode to a table by the door, muttering almost silently to himself
"We didn't wake you up did we?" Ava inquired as she was peering at some of the books scattered around the room, flipping through a few pages
"No I was still awake" Without turning around, or even glancing in the much younger elfs directions added "Don't touch Ava"
"Sorry"
In a few minuted the older elf turned back around and held a cup towards Eowyn, "Here drink this" Its pungent odor filled the room.
Eowyn glanced at Ava, who only shrugged and gestured for her to drink whatever it was that was in the cup. So, as instructed Eowyn drank the foul liquid.
"Good" Elrond smiled at her slightly, takeing the glass from her hands then handing it to Ava "If you could lie down on the bed"
Again, Eowyn did as instructed. Carefully Elrond placed his hands onto her stomach, closing his eyes.
Eowyn felt warmth surge from his hands, spreading around her stomach like water would fill a cup. It was a pleasant feeling, but also a little unnerving. She had of course, heard that the elves were some of the few creatures left to have magic. However, no man had ever become close enough to them to pinpoint exactly what it was.
Then almost as quickly as the feeling had come, it disappeared and Elrond removed his hands. "Well?" Ava pressed anxiously
The older elf raised an eyebrow at her "Patience is not a virtue you were blessed with Peneth" Thought the words were harsh, his voice was one of fondness "Eowyn should have no trouble conceiving children"
So sorry that this chapter is sooo short. Between doctor appointment's and studying for all my exams I haven't had much time to write, hopefully ill have time to write this weekend though!
