The Keeper of the Ethereal Forest
Disclaimer: I only own the 10th companion dats it
Note: Thank you to those who reviewed: Nerys: I apologize for my misspelling of Boromir and Rivendell and I have corrected those mistakes for the previous chapter and will avoid making them in the future. Also my characters Stag is special and.gigantic, A little larger then a regular sized horse. Arayuldawen: You like the twist at the end? Thanks. Madkornfan: I'll keep writing as much as I can! Thanks. Christina: Boromir is not a jerk in this fic unless you deem him so. Sadly enough I have only read the first book, but I am not intending to make fun of them. I am attempting to put my own little twists on what happens but this fic will not concentrate on the journey much just so you know.
The stranger was silent for a while before turning to Elrond. Elrond nodded to her and gestured passively as if saying 'It can't be helped'. She turned back to the others and slowly lowered her white hood.
Her skin was very fair but her other features would be what caught the attention of those who looked upon her. Her eyes and hair were both silver-blue. Her hair shimmered and swayed as it tumbled down her back when she freed it from her cloak. Her eyes seemed innocent and wise and full of life, which sparkled within them brightly. Her ears were slightly pointed making her at least SEEM elven.
Boromir stood there a moment his jaw slightly open before regaining his senses quickly as the others still gawked slightly at her appearance. "Eh.tell me.what is an elven woman doing at such a council as this? I mean no offense but.what should a woman know of such matters?"
"Elrond asked me to be here.ask him if you wish" She replied calmly. "No.No I trust Lord Elrond's judgment, if he sent for you then he had a good reason. I believe I speak for many of us here when I inquire of your name?" said Boromir accompanied by a few soft whispers of agreement.
She nodded slightly before speaking "I am Athan, Keeper of the Ethereal Forest". There were a few excited murmurs from the elves and dwarves and one the elves whispered a bit louder then he meant to "Ethereal Athan." and she turned to look at him "Yes Legolas of Mirkwood.I am known at Ethereal Athan to some but my name is only Athan if you please."
Legolas seemed a bit startled and nodded faintly blushing though only Athan noticed. The Gimli spoke up a bit "I have heard of such a maiden, and of such a forest. The forest is said to be enchanted and the maiden within is said to be able to speak to animals"
She turned now to look at Gimli "Well, I can speak to some, if I know their languages, I know many languages not only those of the animals"
There were some more questions and comments thrown out but all went silent as Elrond spoke "We are not here to talk of Lady Athan," he bowed his head to her in respect and she sat down bowing hers in return as he continued "we are here to speak of what to do about the One ring."
And so they spoke of the ring and came to a decision, "The ring must be destroyed!" Legolas broke out and then the many groups of races were standing and feuding with one another.all except Frodo and Athan who sat there shaking her head calmly before her eyes were drawn to the ring and the hobbit sitting there looking at it with intense emotion.
She watched as the small being jumped up and shouted, "I will take it!" She watched as he shouted it again and all went quiet. She watched as he announced that he did not know the way to Mordor. She watched as Gandalf announced that he would help Frodo. She watched as Aragorn swore his allegiance to the little halfling, and Legolas, Gimli, and Boromir did the same. She watched as three other hobbits ran out saying they couldn't be stopped from helping Frodo.
She slowly rose and took a step closer to Frodo and knelt in front of him looking into his eyes, "You are such a brave little halfling, you know many troubles await you, I can see it in your eyes but you willingly face them. I will join you Frodo Baggins, I swear to protect you with all the power I posses and all the skills I have that may be helpful on your long journey"
And so Athan, keeper of the Ethereal Forest joined the Fellowship of the Ring.
I apologize for any misspelled word or grammar problems I may have made in this chapter, and I hope you enjoyed it. Please review for constructive criticism or comments on how much you liked or disliked the chapter. Please understand that this is my own version of the story of LOTR and not really supposed to be much like the original. Thank you.
