In my last story, Airesiwe's Tale, A female elf goes with the Fellowship to help Frodo destroy the ring. Airesiwe is an eternally young elf, no more than four and a half to five feet tall. She was found as a baby in a elven basket, and was raised in Rivendell. She is a skilled warrior, and at one time, she too had the ring. She has a horse named Firnephel, whom she also took to accompany her on the quest. She has also been blessed with ten magical powers. Seven, she used foolishly as a child. When she had but three left, she used one of them to save Frodo during his rescue at the Ford breaking the boundary of Rivendell and the woods. After she was chosen to go with the Fellowship, she had become quite fond of Frodo, and Frodo had become quite fond of her. Since she had used all of her powers, she started to faint more, causing many embarrassing delays. She also seemed to get hurt more often as well. At the gates of Moria, she battled a large creature that rested in the waters nearby. When the Fellowship ran inside Moria, the walls collapsed. The wizard Gandalf guided them through Moria during the four day journey inside. In one of the rooms, they are attacked by two cave trolls and many orcs. In much pain from being stepped on and crushed by a troll, Airesiwe manages to survive. In the meantime, Frodo gets cornered by one of the trolls and gets stabbed. After it seemed like there was no hope, Frodo surprised the Fellowship and Airesiwe when he got up and started walking. The company learned that it was actually Mithril that saved him. After running from orcs to the bridge, Airesiwe sees a Balrog chasing them. She falls behind the Fellowship, but not for very long. For they have been waiting for her at the start of the bridge of Kaza- dum. They run over the small and narrow bridge, all except Gandalf. He challenges the Balrog and defeats it. But alas, the whip of the Balrog snaps and wraps around Gandalf's ankle. He falls into the shadow and is never seen again. With much grief, the Fellowship mourns the loss of Gandalf outside of Moria. Aragorn, a man that was sent from Bree to join the Fellowship, leads the Fellowship on to Lothlorien. Airesiwe runs to the top of a cliff overlooking the green mass of tall trees, and sees a never ending vision. She feels dizzy and falls off, rolling down the side of the cliff. When she comes to, the Fellowship has surrounded her, and they make their way inside Lorien. Not long after they enter, they are confronted by many Lothlorien elves. Legolas, a Mirkwood elf that joined the Fellowship, and Airesiwe are taking captive in the middle level in the trees of Lothlorien. Airesiwe manages to escape from her room though, and climbs towards the high levels of the trees. There, she get caught and is told to go to the Lady Galadriel. When she arrives in the bright room, she talks with her for awhile. After much discussion, Airesiwe figures out that Galadriel is her mother, and that she was from Lothlorien, not Rivendell. After talking with her, she leaves and attempts to climb down the trees. She slips and falls quite a ways down, breaking her arm. She decides not to go with the Fellowship, but stay in Lothlorien, but soon changes her mind when confronted with Galadriel. She goes with the Fellowship in boats and paddles down the Great River, near Gondor. When paddling one night, Airesiwe notices something swimming behind her boat. It is a small creature, that makes a hissing sound, though she can not figure out what it is. Ignoring it, she paddles on. Finally, the Fellowship stops to rest on some shores. Airesiwe decides to wander around, and while doing so, confronts Frodo. She talks with him for awhile, but then sees large orcs coming towards them, she tells Frodo to leave after pushing him and he vanishes. She battles many orcs, running out of arrows, when she is surrounded. She uses on of her arrows to disable a couple, then runs out of the circle. While running away, she runs into Aragorn who tells her to find Frodo. Instead, she goes back to the boats in hope that she can still return home. When she reaches the shores, she finds Frodo halfway across the river. Airesiwe swims underwater and reaches the boat. She attempts to pull herself into the boat, but a forceful blow to her broken arms causes her to fall back in. After she manages to keep herself from drowning, she pulls her head out of the water. Frodo and Sam realize what they had done and pull her up. They paddle towards the opposite shore, and get out, continuing their journey to Mordor.

Now, Airesiwe, Frodo, and Sam are making their way slowly towards Mordor, away from the Fellowship, and unaware of what surprises and dangers are up ahead.
