((O/T-I've been reading a lot of reviews, not just for my fiction, but for others too. And I've been noticing that a lot of writers have been getting constructive criticism. Believe me, I am all for that, because I love to hear how I can better my writings so people enjoy them better. But some of you have gone a little far. Before you actually press the "submit review" button, think about how you would feel getting the review you just put. I'm not telling you that you HAVE to do this, but it would be nice maybe to word your criticism a little bit nicer. Then maybe the writer you're trying to help will actually take their time to listen to their input and better their stories. Thank You.))
Anyways....back to "The Aroma of Lavenders"
Chapter 3: "This isn't my past..."
"Where were you?" Norcomic roared as he paced back and forth.
Asreila looked back at him, trying to think of the right answer, "I was just in the meadow...."
"Don't lie to me! I sent my orc's looking for you!" he bellowed over her, "They found you no where near the meadow!"
"I'm sorry Lord Norcomic. I wandered further, beyond the meadows. I let my curiosity get the better of me. Please forgive me," Asreila begged.
"Were you with anybody? Did you speak to anyone?" Norcomic asked demandingly.
Asreila shook her head.
Norcomic looked over her then turned to the orc's, "Bring her to her room. I don't want her getting out tonight!"
The orc's grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the tunnel underneath the cottage.

Legolas rode quietly through the forest before finally reaching Rivendell. He dismounted Arod and brought him to a fresh patch of grass.
"What troubles you so cousin?" Arwen asked as she stood on a balcony above him.
He looked up at her, startled at first, "A girl.."
Arwen laughed, "Having girl troubles, are you?"
Legolas shook his head, "It's not that Arwen. I met her this afternoon in the Misty Mountains. She was wonderful; yet, something troubled her about getting back to her cottage when I took her for a ride with Arod. It worry's me."
"Oh Legolas, I'm sure she did not want to worry her family," Arwen assured.
"She said nothing of a family. I asked her of her living quarters, and she said that she lived with herself. That strikes somewhat as odd to me," Legolas pondered before Elrond approached him.
"Legolas! Dear nephew, will you be accompanying us for supper?" Elrond asked joyfully.
Legolas nodded with a plastered smile on his face.
"I shall recommend that you go and clean up. It shall be served in just a few," Elrond bowed his head as he turned to go back inside, "I hope to see you there as well Arwen?"
"Of course father," she smiled as she leaned over the balcony.
Legolas smiled at the two then ran off to the room he was staying in.
-*-*-*-*-*-
Asreila paced back and forth in her room as tears streamed down her face. She tried to remember anything leading to her past.
"What did you do to me?" she screamed as she fell to the floor.
She cried herself out before slowly getting up and looking around her room. This wasn't the place of her past, that much she was sure of. She made her way to the the bathtub and drew a warm bath, adding oils and lighting candles.
Though her mind kept wondering about her past and why she was here, her heart wandered off to another. . .
((A/N: I know this chapter was a little short, but my mind has been elsewhere. I'll try to get a better one up tomorrow! Please review!!))
