of Silver Dreams and Golden Shadows
FOUR:- Decsisions

Legolas watched as Jairah paced in their room. She was clearly troubled. They had made their way to their room after the meeting with the mysterious Reighn. Jairah had been unable to sit still, though he begged it of her.

"I did not ask for such powers. I do not want them!" she cried, wringing her hands and pulling on her long hair. "And Sauron! He lingers! After we all endured such heartache and suffering to make sure that he never again would bring terror to Middle-Earth. All the time we spent apart..." she trailed off, and kept pacing.

"How do we know we can trust this Reighn?" Legolas asked her softly, his eyes following her back and forth as she walked the cool marble floor.

Jairah stopped suddenly and looked at him. "We must. We have to. If what she says is true, then we must trust her. The shadow was familar to me, Legolas. Familiar. That is what has haunted me in my dreams, that is the blackness i spoke of. I recongnize it now."

She started pacing again. "Of course, Elrond knows what she is. And if Elrond trusts her, we must also. I saw inside her memories, she revealed them to me. Those shadows took her family, Legolas. That is how she came to be what she is now, a rogue of some sort. She is quite powerful."

"She said she could make you quite powerful, that you posess the most power of all of her people..." Legolas said slowly.

Jairah stopped pacing again. "But thats precisely the thing, my love." she said, smiling sadly. "I do not know if i wish to powerful. She said i was more powerful than Galadriel. And there is no elf more powerful nor wise than Galadriel. And now the power that lies in the blood in my veins, it can overshadow her.... i do not wish for that."

Jairah sat down on the end of the bed in a sort of frustrated huff. Her hair was falling over her shoulder again and she angrily pushed it away.

"I feel like shooting something, anything," she said, angrily. She looked over to where her bow and arrow sat against the wall, longing to take it out and wield an arrow into the deep of a tree.

The anger in Jairah disturbed Legolas. She rarely was angry. Fear was the most common emotion that she had outside of any other. He moved and sat next to her on their bed, touching her hair gently.

"It will be alright." he said softly. "This power runs through you, so you must learn to use it. I would beg you to learn..." he whispered as she looked at him, wide-eyed.

"If what Reighn said was true, Jairah, " he said. "If you do not learn to use this power that was borne with you, then Sauron could take it. He could take you." His words faultered him as he spoke the last sentence, touching her hair again softly. "I would beg for you to learn from her, all you can. But i say so for my own selfish reasons. I could not bear it if you were lost. It would be the end of me."

Jairah looked at him tenderly. "If this is what you ask of me, then i will do it. But not for Middle-Earth, for you. Because that is what you ask. I could not deny you anything." She leaned forward and kissed him gently, then they embraced.

*******

Reighn smiled as she listened to the conversation that the Elven-lovers had had. She had been counting on the persuasion of Legolas to convince Jairah that she needed to learn to use the power in her blood.

As she now patrolled the borders of Rivendell fast, she marvelled at how beautiful the place was again. She hoped that she could prevent any evil from crossing these borders again.
