Chapter 5 The Hunt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day Legolas, Faer, and about ten other elves left to find the elf killer. Legolas didn't want Faer to come, but she insisted. They traveled for a few days following the trail that Galinon left. Later that day they came into a clearing and found some dead wargs. This troubled the company for nothing not even orcs would have killed the wargs in this manner. The wargs were sliced open and only their heads had been left unhindered.
"Who could have done this?" asked Ellon who come for the hunt.
"You mean what," said Legolas.
Faer had been quiet through out the whole trip. Her ring that must have been given to her by her parents had told her all she needed to know about what they were about to face. The ring had also told her that it was called 'Silver wind,' it told her another thing that Legolas had doubts about her.
Three days later the whole group stood before the thing they had been searching for. It had called itself Nash. Nash had been worst than everyone but Faer had expected. Soon all the company was backing down. Still there stood Faer she had not moved though she watched as Nash struck fear into the elves about even Legolas. Finally she spoke, " You kill with pleasure yet that will stop for I am wielder of the lost ring of the Silver Wind and you will fall before it."
For the first time Legolas noticed the ring. He had heard many a legend about the ring but all said it had been lost forever. Yet only one could wield it and it would never let the wielder lie to the good but the evil where a different story. With the ring fear fled from the hearts of the elves.
When they got back to the Elven City everyone was curious to know what she had said so she told them. Galadil finally excepted her as who she really was and never called her Renon again. Legolas had cast all doubts he had had about her.
"Faer I doubted you I'm sorry. Will you forgive me?" asked Legolas.
"Of course. For I love you like no other and to hold a grudge would be stupid." She answered him. Legolas couldn't believe what he had heard.
