I can remember sitting on the hills with him. A nice gentle elf named Legolas. He was from the Woodland Realm. We talked about my father. I still wonder. It has been getting to me lately. I do not know why. Legolas kissed my cheek and we kissed each other...

She kissed him back with delight and put her arms around his neck. Soft skin, soft lips, thought Legolas, and beautiful long hair. They parted for air and hugged one another.

Eowyn walked through the gate to find her daughter. "Emilia! Emilia!" called Eowyn. She looked beyond the landscape and found the hills with beautiful flowers on them. She found Emilia and Legolas laughing and picking flowers and sticking them in each other's hair. "Emilia. Please come in it is time for supper," said Eowyn. "Coming in just a second mother," said Emilia. She got up and brushed off the grass. She helped Legolas up. "I guess I will see you at dinner," said Emilia. "Of course my fair lady," said Legolas kissing Emilia's hand. She walked away and left Legolas standing on the hill. ************************************************************************ Emilia brushed her long hair and sung an elvish song her uncle, Eomer, taught her when she was little. Eowyn came in. "Are you almost ready?" asked her mother. "Just about," said Emilia. She slipped on her dress and Eowyn did it up. While she was doing up the dress, Emilia asked her mother a question. "Mother? Do you know whom my father is?" asked Emilia. Eowyn looked up. "Why do you want to know?" asked Eowyn. "I do not know why. But it has been getting to me lately. I have been wondering," said Emilia. Eowyn finished off tying up the dress and sat Emilia down. It was time for a talk. "Your father has arrived today. I was going to wait til after dinner to tell you this. But Aragorn is you father," said Eowyn. "You mean, the ranger with the long hair and kept you from helping Great- Uncle Theoden, today?" asked Emilia. Eowyn nodded her head. Emilia stared at her mother. "How did this happen?" asked Emilia, tearfully. "We met one night just as he met a lady elf. We had fun and then I ended up pregnant with you," said Eowyn. It cannot be possible, thought Emilia. "Come now. We will discuss it with your father after dinner," said Eowyn. She escorted her daughter to the dinner table.

A young boy and girl were eating their dinner with the others. Gimli, the dwarf, was eating very rudely and loudly. Aragorn ate and talked at the same time. Legolas stood behind Aragorn and did not eat. Emilia sat next to the young boy and began to eat her dinner. Legolas looked over at his princess. He was taken aback. The beautiful hair frames her face, he thought, her brown eyes look so beautiful. He could not believe his eyes. Discussing about war came up at dinner. King Theoden sat on his throne with Gandalf by his side. "They had no idea. They were unarmed," said Eowyn, talking to the King. "This is the taste of terror and Saruman has unleashed," said Gandalf. Emilia looked up from her dinner. War? When was Rohan under threat? She suddenly realised that she was not hungry anymore. Legolas read her mind and walked over to her. "I am here. I will make sure you do not get hurt. We will win this fight," said Legolas. It wanted to make Emilia cry. But she did not want to. Not in front of Legolas. He was her one true love. What would he think if he saw her cry? She got up from the table. The talk had been too much to talk about. "Please excuse me," said Emilia. "Finished already, my dear?" asked Theoden. "Yes. I am full," said Emilia and went to her room.

She sat and brushed out her hair. She decided to get ready for bed. Her gown has long and white. A knock came from the door. "Come in," said Emilia. The door opened and in came Legolas. "I am sorry if I scared you just a while ago," said Legolas. "You did not scare me at all. It's just. my mother told me something before dinner," said Emilia. "Well. What is it?" asked Legolas. "She told me who my father was," said Emilia. Legolas could not take it any longer. He really wanted to know who it was. "Come on Emilia. Tell me who he is," said Legolas "It is Aragorn. He is my father," said Emilia. I knew it, thought Legolas, but did not say anything. "Wow! That is a surprise," said Legolas. "That is what I thought when my mother told me," said Emilia, "And this war. I am quite scared about it." "Do not worry about it," said Legolas, locking Emilia's bedroom door. "What are doing?" asked Emilia. Legolas walked over to her seat. He kissed her cheek. He picked her up and put her down on the bed. He blew out her candle. Darkness fell in the room and the moon shone through Emilia's curtains. The elf, the human kissed and it went from there. ************************************************************************ "Aragorn. Do you think that there is something going on between Emilia and Legolas?" asked Eowyn. "They are just friends," said Aragorn, "What are you worried about?" "I have looked everywhere for Emilia. I have asked her friends in the village if they have seen her and they have not. She is no where in the kingdom," said Eowyn, "I am worried." "Have you checked her room? Come to think of it. I have not seen Legolas since dinnertime. Maybe he is with her," said Aragorn....... ************************************************************************ To be continued...
