Three days went by and Olen thought of Arwen every second. Finally he sent
word he'd like to meet with her again, this time, outside of Lothlorien
where she was staying. When they met near the singing river outside the
forest walls she looked deep into his eyes. A tear ran down her face.
"What is the matter?" he questioned softly.
"I love you so much," she replied, "Why did you send word to meet
me?"
He looked into her eyes. They had such deep beauty and they were full of
love. Those beautiful blue eyes, so passionate. 'God, I love her. I'd die
without her love. I'd simply die without her in my life.'
"I sent for you cause I could not stand a day without you. And it
has been to long since I last saw you," he answered.
Another tear came down her cheek. She tried to smile but it was too hard.
She held back a sob and then finally the words came out, ".I have to leave
you. My father sent word. I am to meet him near Rivendell. I will be
staying with him for just a week. He hasn't seen me in years. It has been
102 years since he last saw me. That was when I was 19. He wishes to talk
to me now. I will only to stay that long then I will head back here. But
you may have to live without me for a week. I am sorry. I love you and I
shall return as soon as possible."
"Well, now you can tell him of our love and the wedding. But I shall
miss you dearly. When do you leave?" he said holding back a tear and he
caressed her hair.
"In the morning. first thing. I was going to say goodbye to you when
I could, but I wasn't able to send word. before now. I am so sorry.
Forgive me," she said quietly. So quiet it was hardly a whisper.
"Of course I forgive you. I love you. Good-bye. I will see you
soon, hopefully. It will take some days to travel there and back. So I
shall see you within the months end," he then kissed her lips once again
and tears came down her cheeks.
The next morning she was off and ready to leave. The horse she rode went right by his living area and she searched for him in the trees. But no sign was to be seen. She felt awful and terrible at the thought of leaving.
The ride was long and the travel even longer. But soon enough she reached the outskirts of Rivendell. Her father met her there at the spot he had said he'd be at. And then they traveled together into the city of Rivendell. "Dear Daughter, you're beauty has become radiant and you're even more of a young elf than ever. But why does the look on your face seem sorrowful and troubled?" Elrond asked. "I miss someone," she said. "You miss someone? You're mother? Who may it be?" he then asked curiously. "I have fallen in love with a half Elvin. He's a mortal though. His mother never let him have his immortality. I love him so. And I miss him. We wish to marry on the first day of fall. But I told him I had to tell you first. That is whom I miss so much. Olen," she said softly with a tear in her voice. "My dear, do not give your immortality up to anyone!" He said. "We agreed I'd stay immortal, at least for awhile," she answered. "I do not know what to say," he then said. "I am sorry," she said. Days later she was return home. She was partly excited but when she returned to her homeland she had awful news to hear. Her grandmother told her. "Arwen, Olen has been sent away. He had to leave. It's a war. I sent a protection promise with him. But I do not know how long magic will last. I am terribly sorry," said her grandmother. Arwen stayed silent and said nothing. Not a word. She was troubled and felt sorrow within her soul.
