padsfoot girl: "This is good write more soon"........OK!!!!!! :^)
Question: Does anyone know if the elvish words in "May It Be" by Enya are in Quenya or Sindarin? I sometime use some of the lyrics' words in my story.
Author's Note: Ok my Internet is annoying! It makes it so that I can't use certain sites for an extended amount of time....who knows why-perhaps just to make me have a heart attack. But right now fanfiction.net isn't working right so I can't read stories or review them. I can hardly update my own story. So this chapter will take long to post. I'm going to write a few more chapters while it's not working so my story will be updated faster.....when it starts working again! Please, be patient, I am trying to fix this problem with my Internet service, but they don't know what's going on either (doesn't that just make me feel confident in them?). But I AM EXTREMELY ANGRY WITH MY INTERNET!!!!!! IT'S CRAP!!!!!!!!!!
Now that my anger is out....:-D here's the list that was at the end of last chapter:
Nimarwen: Well...can't tell you who she is yet, but her name means "Royal white maiden"
Linduial: Legolas's eldest brother. "Twilight singing".
Armirendur: wife of Linduial. "Noble Jewel of Devotion".
Elenedhil: Legolas's second brother. "Star Elf".
Galenhil: Legolas's third brother. "Green Lord".
Celebanna: Legolas's older sister. "Silver Gift".
Chapter Seven
~Legolas...~
The words were barely legible in his mind. Everything seemed to have a mist surrounding it. He couldn't think clearly; couldn't feel.
~Legolas, come to the light.~
The voice was becoming familiar. His eyes opened, and the edges of his vision were clouded from his healing sleep. A concerned face look back at him and at first he was not sure who she was. As his memory returned, things became clearer and he recognized her.
~Celebanna...~
~Yes, brother, I am here.~
~Where am I?~
~Home. Our healers worked strenuously to mend you. You've been unconscious for nearly three days.~
Legolas tried to sit up, his shoulder still burning and his head heavy. Celebanna supported him and lifted him up, propping up pillows behind him for comfort.
~Are you still tired, brother? I believe your friends were quite worried.~
~Even the dwarf?~
~He even more than the man.~
Legolas was surprised by this, but decided to change the subject.
~How is Armirendur?~
~Still very pregnant. Due any day now. Linduial cannot sit still. He wants a boy.~
{Of course.....typical of Linduial.} Legolas thought, laughing to himself. {To pass on the throne is a more consequential issue to him than life itself.}
~May I speak to my friends?~
~Of course. Galenhil has also requested to see you when you wake. Do you feel up to his presence?~
~Surely. I always feel up to Galenhil.~ Legolas said humourously. Galenhil had an uncanny ability to make the worst situations seem joyous. He was sure that he would make the best of this one as well.
When Celebanna left, Legolas found it especially hard to remain awake. His eyes almost clouded over a few times. Once more, he felt his head slump back into his pillow. He was interrupted by a sound at his ear.
~Legolas......wake up. Your brother is here.~
Legolas smiled and turned his head, looking into Galenhil's blue eyes.
"Welcome back." Galenhil said, switching to the Common Tongue. "For a moment, I wondered if you were pondering all the Elvish women you could grab hold of!" He grinned derisively.
"I'm not the one who stole a female's dress at a pond so she was reduced to running home stark."
Galenhil burst out laughing. Legolas couldn't help but chuckle likewise, even though it pained him so.
"I've seen elves do worse."
Legolas and Galenhil turned to see Gimli at the door, holding back a smile at seeing his friend awake. Aragorn was following suit, holding a small bottle of a certain powder and a glass. {Probably one of his potions.}
"Does this story involve Elladan?" Legolas felt he would finally understand Elladan's foreshadowing. Gimli was surprised by this statement and raised an inquizitive eyebrow.
"Have you heard this before?"
"Nay......Elladan said you would tell me. He likes to test my patience."
Gimli held back a laugh, and decided to continue with the story.
"Elladan and Elrohir were traveling with me to the Glittering Caves. I had visited Rivendell recently and told them of its magnificent beauty. They were obviously astonished by the explanations I gave. So when we got there, we were greeted by a wonderful array of dwarves. There were so many, in fact, that they could not remember any of their names. This led to much confusion, due to the fact that most dwarves appear alike. Elladan made the fatal mistake of calling a foreman, Fregan, a disliked miner's name, Hadar. Fregan did not settle well with being called a mere miner, especially one who was known to smell of garlic." Gimli paused to laugh before continuing. "Elladan gave his apologies, but Hadar overheard that his scent was scorned, and he did not take it well. I told Elladan to keep his mouth shut but he did not listen. Pandemonium broke out and Elladan earned himself a bloody nose. I, to this day, ridicule his judgment to battle with a Dwarf."
Laughter rang out and it was many minutes before they could begin conversation again.
"I can't believe Elladan would do something so foolish!" Galenhil said.
"Speak for yourself! I've stories of you that would make Nazgul's hair curl!" Legolas pointed out.
"I believe that Legolas is far too tired to tell all of these tales, am I correct?" Aragorn interrupted.
"Well....I'm not so tired....actually I'm..."
"Drink this." Aragorn handed him a cup with liquid that he had been mixing during their story. Legolas hesitated, noting the spark in Aragorn's eye. "It will make you feel better."
Legolas consumed the fluid.
"Ach! This is horrid!"
"But it will make you feel better." Aragorn added, with intelligence in his eyes.
"Legolas, father wishes to see you, when you wake." Galenhil said.
"When I wake? I have no intention of...."
But he could not finish, for the potion had worked, and put him fast asleep.
