Chapter 1: Freedom
Princess Arwen stared somberly from the balcony of her room. She yearned for her love Aragorn, great son of Arathorn. He journeyed far on a perilous mission, and the destiny of all depended on it but where did that leave her?
*I long to see my beloved Aragorn again, my heart follows him to the furthest reaches of this earth, and I long for an adventure…but 'tis not my time nor my destiny, so I must watch the world go by without me, and sit alone worrying, such is life!*
Lady Arwen rose from her seat. She needed some fresh air, she never thought she would think it but the houses of Rivendell were...stuffy, almost constricting. She missed Aragorn dearly, and did not bear to think what would befall her if he was slain. Such a dangerous quest but someone had to undertake it, and Aragorn was the most valiant there was.
She passed through the corridors of the house and out into the fresh morning light of the gardens. Laughter of others tinkled in the breeze but she could share none of their merriment even for such a fine day. Arwen caught a glimpse of her father out on the sunlight terrace, conversing with a visitor she did not recognize, She knew in her heart what she had to do, and that she must see Aragorn no matter what.
She slunk past the guards and made her way down the darker passages of the house and into the armory. She slipped a gleaming sword from its sheath and examined it. It seemed satisfactory for her use, and she attached it to her belt, she selected a lithe bow and quiver of arrows from a row on the far wall and some daggers from a shelf. She slipped out to the stables at the other side of the house, and released the swiftest horse (Crystalstream). She required no saddle or reins for elves prefer to ride bareback. She led Crystalstream to a dark wall near the gates, and felt for a switch on the base of a tree.
The wall swung open silently to reveal a dark passage, lit only with the flame of torches along the walls. This was a secret passage used to escape when the city was under attack. Through it one could pass safely and quickly, unbeknownst to all to a safe distance from the city walls. She mounted her steed and thundered forward, her heart leading all else.
*I will be with you soon my love…nothing could keep me from you!*
