Chapter 16 ::At Home::
A herald walked into the throne room, "Prince Legolas, She is here."
Legolas looked confused, "Who is she?" He asked.
"Milord, the Lady Princess of Gondor, is here outside in the rain." He looked grave.
"Wh-what?! She's HERE?! DID THEY BRING HER-" Legolas darted out of the throne room. Ran through 14 sets of doors and made it outside, to see Tara being helped off her horse.
"Tara!!!!!!" Arwen screeched running down the set of stairs and knocking Legolas into a puddle on the ground. Legolas rolled his eyes, Wonderful, great, JUST PERFECT!!!! I HAVE MUD ALL OVER ME NOW!!
Tara gave a weary smile as her mother came rushing over to hug her, "How are you? What happened? Oh dear your all wet! Guards help her inside, Lamarda, get her a warm bath, warm milk, and some clean warm night clothing." Arwen ordered.
"Mum, I'm fine. Just alittle tired…That's all," Tara mumbled, "Can I try and walk on my own please?" The guards looked to Arwen. "Alright, let her try."
Legolas stood up and dusted himself off, and strode up to Tara, "My love! You've come back." He smiled cheerfully.
Tara nodded and they took her inside, once inside they asked what had happened, she told them the whole story. And thus they left her to sleep.
(Two weeks later. A:N: I know…I'm moving fast…So? Lol)
Tara was dressed in a beautiful red gown, Legolas sat beside her watching the play that was going on. Tara lost interest in the play, and decided to get up, "I'll be back." She whispered into Legolas' ear, he simply nodded too involved in the play. Tara walked to the door way where the scarlet curtains were parted on both sides. She suddenly felt weak and lurched forward, grabbing the curtain for support. One of the guards immediately came to her aid.
Legolas knew of nothing. He continured to watch the actress run from the poorly costumed actor portraying a Belrog.
Tara slumped in the guards arms. "Milady, are you alright?" There was no reply. Oh no. He thought. He carried her up to Legolas' bed chambers and then called for Thuindol. *Thuindol is the healer*
Legolas was now wondering where Tara had run off to. He stayed until the play was interrupted by four guards, "We're sorry to interrupt but can the Lord and Lady of Gondor, and Prince Legolas please follow us?" Legolas glanced at Aragorn, and all three got up and followed the guards.
When they arrived they saw Tara on the bed with Thuindol checking her pulse.
Legolas rushed forward, "What happened?" He asked alarmed. Thuindol pointed to the guard who had carried Tara into the room. Legolas walked to guard and looked at him with his piercing blue eyes.
The guard bowed at the waist, "Milord, I saw her walking towards the curtains and she fell forward and grabbed the curtain for support, I went to see what was wrong, and she fainted in my arms." Legolas nodded. The healer looked at Legolas, "She's been unconscious for quite sometime now, there's a pulse…But it's faint. The only thing I can think of is that she's-" Legolas cut him off, "I don't want to know." The healer nodded and looked at Aragorn and Arwen, and signaled for them to go outside with him, leaving Legolas alone with Tara.
(Aragorn's POV)
"Lady Taraneth…Um sir, may I get her name in full…So that I can keep a file on her?"
I stared at him, "Yes, er…Taraneth Eva of Gondor." The healer nodded to me. Arwen looked so worried, I wanted to comfort her…But my daughter was dying! How could you comfort anyone when that happens.
"Now sir, your daughter has a serious problem…" I still stared at the healer, he continued, "She's very ill….But that's the least of the worries, I have. How long has she been with child?"
Arwen's jaw dropped, "What?" The healer looked confused. "You did not know your daughter was with child?" We were both silent. The healer winked at me and said, "Your joking right?" I glared, "No I am not joking…We had no clue."
"Ah. Well the illness will hopefully not effect her. But she is very weak and must stay in bed, I suggest she not do anything too strenuous… Such as no annoyances. Or any time up."
