own Kelunis! Flames…will…be used…to…create ice sculptures.
Chapter 8-Problems Begin
Aragorn let a few of his men get wounded to make the battle look convincing. Too bad he didn't know that Arwen wasn't around. He also allowed himself to get wounded to make it even more interesting.
After the battle was over, Aragorn and the few men who were wounded were brought into the healing chambers.
"Arwen hasn't returned with you…where could she be?" Elrond asked, pacing back and forth.
"I don't know…but you're going to have to get someone else to heal for her if you want us to stay alive!" Aragorn pleaded.
"I'll get one of the high elves to take her place. I know one who has knowledge of the healing herbs. Glorfindel! Come here!" Elrond waved the tall elf over towards where Aragorn was lying. "Fetch me Kelunis."
"Yes, sir!" Glorfindel rushed to find Kelunis and sent her into the healing chambers. He then returned to his business.
"Lord Elrond, what would you have me do?" Kelunis curtsied and then looked into his grave eyes.
"I need you to help me heal these men, and quickly! You know what to do," Elrond ordered.
"As you wish." Kelunis bowed her head and then got to work, finding herbs. She found some athelas and spoke elvish while administering it. She knew that this was working when she saw a smile on the man's face. "You are healed, but you should rest a while before moving, you might still have some pain."
Kelunis moved to Aragorn and did the same. Aragorn took her hand, thinking it was Arwen and smiled through glazed-over eyes. "Stop that, Prince Elessar."
"Oh come on, milady…don't deny your heart!" Aragorn pulled her close and placed his lips on hers…just as Arwen was strolling into the room!
Arwen stormed out, followed by Kelunis. Aragorn began regaining his sight, and noticed Kelunis look at him. Elrond told him what had happened; he was still too shocked to believe it. Aragorn was about to get up, but Elrond pushed him back down.
"You're much too weak to get up. Talk to her in the morning once she's cooled off a bit," Elrond suggested.
Meanwhile…
"So you're trying to tell me that that stubborn Aragorn couldn't see straight and mistook you for me? Yeah, that's really believable!" Arwen was still hotheaded and couldn't really think straight.
"Yes, highness, why won't you believe me? I was only trying to heal him…he probably thought that you were healing him like you were supposed to! Being wounded sometimes blinds you, you know," Kelunis said.
"Well…I'll talk to him…but I won't promise much will come!" Arwen exclaimed, and then left for her room.
