Amaranth placed a hand on Legalos' arm. Legalos nodded yes to Narond, -'I cannot refuse to help. Saron's forces are becoming more powerful.'
Aldaron stood up and handed him the horse -'His name is Arid, he will take you swiftly to Aregnor, Eomir gave him to me.'
Gondalf read the writing on the cloth and told Legalos that Aregnor is riding Asufel towards you leaving Teoden's castle.
Then, Glomli arrived walking down the top of a hill, with Grayheir at his side. 'This fierce beast almost knocked me over trying to make me follow 'im because he knew you had called for him and he wanted to bring me with 'im' the angry dwarf spoke to Gondalf.
-'I knew you would come, such a loyal companion' said Gondalf, referring to the horse but Glomli none the less replied 'Don't mention it.'
Legalos leaped on Arid and helped Glomli. 'I don't like this at-oll' the dwarf grumbled.
Legalos turned and told Amaranth '-There is unfortunately no time to talk or say farewell.'
-'I know you must go. Carry me in your heart on this dangerous journey' said Amaranth as tears welled but she blinked them back.
-'I will have time with you when I return' he whispered to her ear.
-'I will keep it as your word and wait impatiently for your return' she said with a sad smile. He bent down and kissed her.
He said to Amaranth to tell Undowen that he will find Aregnor and tell him to come to her. -'Go to Rivendell with Narond' Legalos finally said.
Amaranth held his hand until his fingers slid out of her grasp and he galloped off with Gondalf towards the castle. Narond took Amaranth on his horse and galloped off to Rivendell as promised to Legalos. Aldaron went to find Undowen. He was uneasy when in her presence. She glowed like a star and he was but a mere half-hobbet, half-elf. She turned when she felt his presence.
-'Have thou come to take me against my will?' she asked. -'Never would I do such a thing.'
He wore an elven cloak and the hood almost hid his young manly jaw with fair Hobbet-like skin. She pulled his hood off his head and saw that his face carried traits of a lifetime of wisdom and under his curly blond Hobbet hair he had leaf-green eyes. He was much taller than her but he seemed kind and gentle.
