Chapter 16: Lunch with the humans.
Glorfindel was even more amazed when the small Edain girl ran up and hugged his leg. "Big nice pretty people." She said happily hugging his leg and smiling up at him. Glorfindel not knowing what to do reached down and patted the young girl's head gently. She smiled and hugged his leg tighter.
The other Edain children, now curious of the two adult elves present walked over and began to stare at Taraqwen and Glorfindel. One girl even got to bold as to touch Glorfindle's long blonde hair. Eventually the Edain children got the elf lord and the elven maid to sit down and join the fest the twins had provided them.
Elladan asked many questions about the wars and trouble the humans where facing living so close to the borders of Mordor. They children had little to say, they had never fought any wars and all battling of orcs near their villages the adult men took care of.
Elrohir asked them about their journey. To this he got many answers.
"It rained a lot!"
"My sister got sick in the wagon."
SMACK!
"I did not Bael."
"Did too Kara."
SMACK!
"We didn't meet any orcs, but we did meet quiet a lot of squirrels."
"My parents were afraid to cross some river, imagine that as shallow as it was they were afraid to cross it. And it was just outside the city."
Glorfindel chuckled at this remembering his arrival here.
The second to oldest Edain girl present began to run her fingers through Glorfindel's long hair. It didn't bother him, it seemed this child was very curious about elves because she stood and did the same thing to Taraqwen and the twins.
She then looked right at Glorfindel and said in a serious manor." Why are there no male elves in this city?"
Glorfindel looked at her oddly," What?"
"I have yet to see a male elf in this city. All I keep seeing are pretty women, who wear pants." Then she looked at Taraqwen confused," Why are you wearing a dress?"
Taraqwen burst out laughing at Glorfindel's sour look, once she stopped laughing she smile at the confused Edain children." This is Glorfindel and he is male. So are Masters Elrohir and Elladan."
All the children whipped their heads around in disbelief to look at the future rulers of Imladris. "You jest. They look like girls!" cried one of the boys.
Elladan and Elrohir's faces turned bright red." WE ARE NOT!"
"ARE TOO!" All the children cried at once.
"ARE NOT!"
"ARE TOO!"
"ARE NOT!"
"Seems some things are universal." Glorfindel laughed as he stepped inbetween the twins and the Edain children.
"Elven men are different from Edain men."
"Edain?" The small girl who had been hugging his leg asked.
"Human."
"Oh."
"Edain men, their voices are much gruffer than their women. Their faces are harder and covered in facial hair while an elven males isn't. They are broader in muscle while an elven male is more lean. It is merely a difference in race that is all."
All the children, elven and edain, blinked for a minute before....
"ARE TOO!"
"AM NOT!"
"ARE TOO!"
"AM NOT!"
Glorfindel sighed, then looked at Taraqwen." Was I speaking to thin air?"
Taraqwen turned her attention away from the children." I'm sorry hir nin did you say something?"
Glorfindel just sighed and sat back down.
