ELROND to ARAGORN

~~~~~

A gift beyond all the ages of the world she has given.

Though at what cost has it been?

Would you hold her here, only to have her face the doom of men?

A doom that was never hers to begin with,

But she would face for you alone?

Let her go.

Let her take the ship to the undying lands.

Let her bear her love for you away,

To lands where it will be ever green.

And safe to rest forever with the rest of her kin.
