The elves dying none were dying in Mirkwood so what was wrong with these elves. He heard her coughing and walked over to her and she sat up. "Calm down" he said. "What happened?" She asked in a hoarse voice. "You passed out … tell me the truth are the elves in this village dying?" She looked away and nodded. "What is causing it?" She tried to stand up but fell back down. "A couple of months ago the karinans invaded the village we prevailed only to find out our water supply was poison with kaceen a powerful drug that slowly takes away like" she paused then began again. "Most of the kids were the one's that caught it but me and the elders were able to heal them only to realize when we did it affected us… in about three months me and the elders will die." Legolas didn't know what to say. "We need help from yall because your skills will help us defeat them and if we destroy them we can reach the cyran plant and make a cure." Legolas walked to her and said "We will help you "
"I don't mind if I die I want the elders to live because they are the key to this village." Legolas knew what she meant if his friends were like them he would wanna protect them as well. When she finally stood up she started to walk to the door when she started to fall over again. Legolas grabbed her right hand and pulled her into his arms. she was completely unconscious. He laid her on the bed once more covered her with the blanket and left her there so her could explore the village. He walked to the water supply place and saw barrels full of water and on the outside they said in elvish "Freshwater" He smelled it. Still good. Suddenly there was screaming and he ran towards it. "No" it was an elf woman and in her arms was an elder. "He is dead" she cried over his body. All of the fellowship was there. Sam looked up at Legolas and said "Elves cant die I thought" Legolas turned to him and said "They can't they have immortality but when the right poison is mixed in with a water supply it can kill anybody" Many elves came up and picked up the dead elf. The woman was carried away while she was crying. Frodo suddenly got scared. "So this is why we are here is it now?" Arwen asked. Gandalf decided it was time to speak up "The elder elves are all poisoned and Karou as well" he paused and then continued "If all of them die before the apocalyptic battle the elves in this village will all be gone."
"The elders in this village are some of the most powerful out of the elves." Arwen said. "We are here to prevent them from dying we can find a cure but it will be a long journey." Legolas added. In two days time Karou was back to full strength and the fellowship set off on their journey. The elders gave them a map and their blessings. They were sent out to look for a crystal, a crystal that could cure all diseases. The Crystal of Starlight. When night fell they camped in an empty clearing. All the hobbits sat by the fire trying to keep warm. Aragorn, Gimli, and Borimir sat at the other end talking. Gandalf and Arwen behind them listening. Karou was off wandering. And Legolas was following her just in case she passed out again. Legolas was climbing through the trees with ease. Karou suddenly stopped and looked down into a stream. She jumped over it and continued to walk along. Suddenly Legolas heard something it was a karinan. Because she was sick her senses were bad but she still felt it and started to run back. Legolas ran through the trees along with her until both of them met up at the campsite. "They're coming!" they both said instantly . None of them had time to prepare before hundreds of arrows were shot at them.
