Chapter 4 Forbidden or not!
Legolas followed Faer and Ellon. When they reached Faer's room Ellon wouldn't let Legolas enter and directed him to his own room. Ellon then stood guard outside of Faer's room. The next few days Faer was stuck in her room. No one in, no one out. One night Legolas slipped in. "How are you doing? You want to get out?"
"Of coarse I want to get out and I'm fine." Faer answered quietly.
"Then come with me. Galadil isn't going to let you out." He stated.
Legolas went to the lowest window and Faer followed. He then pried it open and jumped through. Faer followed him. Legolas then led her towards the stable. They both got on their horses and were of. Legolas led her in the direction of Mirkwood. When they reached Mirkwood Legolas said to dismount. He then led them into Mirkwood.
They had been walking for an hour when Legolas turned from the path. After a couple minutes he led them to a clearing. There was Legolas's old home and his father's realm. Long has it been lost to elves and men. They stayed there for a few days.
After about a week they went back. Galadil had been furious when he found out that Faer had disappeared and it didn't help when he found out Legolas was no where to be found. Later that day Galadil found out that Faer and Legolas were coming from the direction of Mirkwood. Galadil meet them. When they saw him they stopped laughing. They looked like little kids waiting for their punishment. "Where have you been." He asked addressing Legolas.
"We just came back from my father's realm," he answered.
This infuriated Galadil even more for Legolas was the only remaining elf currently in Middle Earth who knew were the lost realm was and he was showing it to an outsider. Even if Faer was an elf he still didn't trust her. "Renon why did you leave your room?" Galadil questioned.
"I hate being locked up somewhere." She answered not wanting Legolas to get into any more trouble and partly because it was true.
"Well then your going to hate what I'm going to do."
"Faer is to do as she likes," said Legolas swiftly.
"She has put you under her spell as I feared but you may do as you like Renon." Galadil was astonished that Legolas would stand up for someone he just met. Yet he didn't know that Legolas had brought her to the lake known as Truth Lake. It showed Faer wasn't lying about the note or herself and that was all he needed to know.
Galadil left right after that. Legolas then turned to Faer who was staring at him. Something went through his mind, ' Was she using him,' but he quickly pushed it back. That is a stupid question the lake showed she wasn't lying.
"Thanks," she said.
"For what?"
"For standing up for me."
Legolas was just about to say something when an elf came stumbling into the yard.
"Galinon what has happened." Asked Legolas. Galinon had a large jagged scar on his face and his side was cut.
He said nothing for then Galinon dropped dead. A million questions went through Legolas's mind. While he was standing there Faer went and got five elves to take the elve's body away. Galadil then came. He didn't believe Faer had anything to do with it for she had been in Mirkwood not Green Vale and Legolas would not let her out of his sight even if he was asleep. Elves sleep with their eyes open and hands crossed on their chest.
