Rivendell Rises

Chapter 3

Chapter 3! Yay! I, sadly, do not own Legolas or Elrond, but Elencú and Saranä are mine, so there :P I hope you do enjoy this chapter. Review when you get done, Pweeeese! Thanx, ~Kitsuné~

"Because I wish to dance with her ladyship." a handsome blonde wood-elf, wearing a silver tunic said, boldly, "Shall we be off, my lady?" "Yes, of course, my lord." Elencú answered, smiling. 'My daughter is smiling!' thought father. 'I believe she has met her match. For never before has she smiled in the presence of a male. I am joyful.' "Thank you, kind sir, for being so bold as to rescue me in that manner." Elencú said innocently to the wood-elf, "May I know the name of my brave woodland rescuer?" "Of course, how rude of me. My name is Legolas, son of Thranduil, of Mirkwood. You, my dear, are?" Legolas asked. "Oh yes, I almost forgot. I am Elencú, daughter of Elrond of Imladris." she said, airily. "Muina khíril, Elencú " (dear lady, Elencú) Legolas sighed into her hair. He, like many others, had fallen under the spell of her beauty. "what?" she asked, slightly confused. She had never heard this language. It sounded a bit less melodic than Quenya, and a bit more woodish. "It's my native tongue. I apologize for being so rude as to slip into the old language." he apologized profusely. "It's okay. Really. I do it all the time, too. I always seem to forget that not everyone knows Quenya, like at home." she said, bemused. "You really needed help, didn't you?" he asked, confused as to how the topic had changed "It looked like your father was trying to get you out of something." Just then they spun past Saranä; the

Edhelnaug was glowering at them. Legolas looked surprised at there being

an Edhelnaug in Imladris. "Why is there an Edhelnaug here?" Elencú

didn't answer. "Ndangwetha, muina mîr." (Answer, dear jewel) He demanded, gently. His expression softening as his gaze turned back towards her.

Elencú's happy expression had turned into a stormy one when the

conversation turned towards Saranä.

~ Now you are beginning to see the relationships forming, review with any ideas or that kinda stuff! THANX! ~Kitsuné~
