A week had passed since Eldarion and Leowyn's last meet. News had reached
Gondor that a wa was raging near Rohan, and they needed aid soon. Eldarion,
Aragorn, and 3,000 soldiers were planning to leave to the northern valley
of the White Mountains to meet with King Baldor and his group of soldiers
to fight against the invading Easterlings.
"We will leave tomorrow at dawn. I want you to take charge of the second group of soldiers, Eldarion." Aragorn said to his son.
"Yes sir." Eldarion said with a bow and left to prepare the leave. As the sun rose the next day, everyone was awake and mounting their horses for the journey to the valley in the White Mountains.
In the valley of the White Mountains, King Baldor, Solrithe, and his men had already setted up camp. Leowyn had gone with her father as well. She begged her father to let her fight with him.
"Father, please let me fight with you. You know I can. I've fought before." Leowyn begged.
"I just don't want you to fight in this battle." Solrithe said strongly to his daughter.
"Why? Father I have fought in hard battles before. Why this battle?" she asked, "Easterlings aren't any worse as the uru-khai."
"I've seen you get hurt before. The Easterlings use a strong poison in their weapons. You're not strong enough to fight it off yet." he said.
"But how would you know I'm not strong enough yet? My injuries were only small cuts." Leowyn said. Solrithe gave a deep sigh and thought deep about this for a while.
"Alright, I'll let you go. Just try to stay clear of their arrows. It's usually the one with the strongest poison." Solrithe said at last. Leowyn was overjoyed of his answer.
"Thank you so much father. I will do my best to stay away from their arrows." Leowyn said. The next day, Leowyn had woken from her tent first. She stepped outside to breathe in the cool breeze passing by. She stood there for a while thinking about the war.
"I won't disappoint him....." Leowyn said to herself in a whisper. She walked off by herself to go see her beautiful mare, Ambar. She was already wide awake as well. ears pricked up and alert.
"Mae govannem, Ambar." Leowyn said in a soft voice. She brushed her hand through the mare's gleaming white mane. "You have always been my friend haven't you?" Leowyn said as the mare nuzzled through her hair. "I'll come by to see you later girl, I have to go now." she said, with that, she left.
Later on through the day, the soldiers from Gondor had arrived. Eldarion walked through the camp after unsaddling his horse, some of the men from both lands were looking nervous about the war ahead of them. Eldarion had not known that Leowyn was also in camp, he had not seen her through the day as well. Night had fallen, Eldarion was heading into his tent, but he found a figure cloaked and hooded sitting on a chair inside.
"Who are you?" he said warningly with his hand on his sword. The figure had not said a word but gotten up and walked towards him.
"Who are you!" Eldarion said again with a stronger voice. He took a step back and unsheathed his sword. The figure stopped and pulled off the hood. Eldarion was preparing for the worst. The figure had turned out to be a maiden of long dark brown hair.
"Leowyn....." Eldarion said under his breath. He quickly sheathed his sword. Leowyn stood there smiling at him.
"Once my father informed me that the soldiers of Gondor had arrived, I knew you would be here." she said. They had talked for a while. Leowyn explained that she would also be fighting in the battle. At first Eldarion was shocked about it. He didn't want her to fight, more like it, he didn't want to see her hurt. In the end Eldarion allowed Leowyn to be in the battle. Hours had passed and they talked and talked.
"It's getting very late, I better go now." Leowyn said, she was already and the entrance of the tent when Eldarion spoke up.
"Wait, before you go....." Eldarion said, he walked over to her and gave her a good night kiss on her forehead. "Good night."
