Chapter 3 Elves and Love
The next day she was invited to come to a meeting of sorts. Apparently Galadil believed her. The meeting was like a party. There were at least forty elves or more. They were singing and telling long lost stories of the ages. Ellon came and seated her next to Legolas. He seemed to be in perfect health. They didn't talk at first. Faer was listening to a story about Sauron and the War of the Ring.
"Want to go for a walk," Legolas asked.
"Well, sure." Faer didn't really know what to say. She was enjoying the meeting, but she wanted to find out more about this Legolas.
They left and they thought no one noticed, but Galadil had. When Galadil saw Legolas leading Faer out he didn't like it. Galadil sent Ellon to follow.
Legolas took Faer over to a small lake. It was a clear, peaceful lake. After that he asked, "Do you want to go for a ride."
"Sure but where?" she asked.
"You'll see," he answered.
They went down to the stable. Legolas picked a small gray horse. Faer went to the back of the stable and got Celebgil. They both sprang to there horse's backs and were off. Ellon then lost them. Ellon went back and tolled Galadil he could follow them no farther.
Legolas lead Faer and her horse through amaze of paths. Finally she asked, "How did you get here. Aren't you supposed to be in Valar?"
"No. I was allowed to come to Middle Earth to see how it was fairing," he answered.
"Oh!"
"How did you now that?"
"There are books by Bilbo Baggins about your adventures with the ring and all."
"Really I didn't know they still existed."
They rode in silence for a while. Faer noticed the farther they went the darker it got. Finally they stopped.
"This is the beginning of Mirkwood," stated Legolas.
He asked her what had been going on in the world. After a few hours of talk they started back. Faer felt respect for the elf, but more than that she felt love and she knew it. Legolas felt the same way. Since both had learned how to cover up their feeling neither knew what the other felt.
Galadil meet them when they returned. "Where have you been Legolas and why take her?" Apparently he still didn't trust Faer despite his earlier actions.
"We went out for a ride that's all," Legolas stated with anger growing within him.
"I haven't done any harm have I. No ones hurt," said Faer hotly.
"That still remains to be seen. Ellon take Renon to her quarters," and with that Galadil left. Apparently he considered her a human not an elf and for a long while he called her Renon.
