Amir woke to the sound of an old man. The man seemed nice but was frightening at same time. He looked like a great man of power and wisdom. Was this the Mithrandir that the elves had spoken of? If so, he did not look or seem anything like Myrddin. Myrddin was old but he looked like a 30 year-old man. Unless you knew who he was, Myrddin could pass as an ordinary human and not a powerful adviser. But would Mithrandir be like Myrddin in wisdom, counsel, and wit?
"Hello little one. I trust you had a night of rest."
"Yes sir. It was the best sleep that I've had in two years. Imladris is quiet and nice. Everything that Camelot used to be." Amir said.
"That is good to hear. I hope that you don't mind speaking to an old man. I should introduce myself, I am Mithrandir. Though most humans call me Gandalf."
"Then you are mistaken about me. I am part fairy as well. You would not call Elrond human even though he is half. He is referred to as an elf. I am simply Amir."
"So you have a sense of pride about your heritage. That is a good quality to find in a person. It would help if you would tell me more about the fairies." Mithrandir laughed.
"I am more than happy to do so. The fairies live with the elfs in Avalon. The elfin folk keep to themselves mainly. They enjoy making crafts and most of there handiwork is passed on to humans. It was an elfin smith who created my papa's sword. The fairies are quite social. They enjoy being in the company of humans and many marry them. That was the case of Constantine and Gwendol. Until I came here, I had never seen an elf. They don't leave Avalon. Papa was able to see one when he went to Avalon the first time. The fairies aren't afraid of being loud. They are magical creatures with a lot of power. Fairies are well known for playing jokes on people. Papa was the brunt of many. I was spared somehow. It was probably the doing of Myrddin and his threats. You don't want to mess with him."
"Your fairies seem like delightful folk. What is the normal lifespan of a fairy and an elf in your world?"
"Both races are immortal. They can only be killed by fatal wounds. Elfs don't marry humans. They stay by themselves. A half-fairy half-human can become ill but they always recover. Only a mortal wound can kill them. I fit into that category."
"So I have and immortal human because of his fairy lineage. This will prove interesting at the counsel." Mithrandir stated.
"Counsel?" Amir asked confused.
"Yes. Elrond sent riders out last night to summon elves from Lothlorien and King Thranduil from Mirkwood. I believe they will all want to speak with you."
"Oh, Myrddin. What have I gotten myself into?" Amir choked.
"Tell me more of Myrddin. He fits the description of an Istari."
"He's very old but looks relatively young. Myrddin is passive and laid back. Often times he is very melancholic. I would say that he is more of an emotional up and down kind of man. Like when he gets a really big vision about something good, he goes crazy with excitement. He lets fire loose everywhere in the sky, starts gibbering in Greek, feasts appear out of nowhere, and he dances on the tables while people are eating. And so you know, Greek is a dead language from the past and thankfully he's never stepped in anyone's food."
"He no longer seems to be an Istari. Though the table dancing reminds me of the hobbits."
"Hobbits?" Amir asked.
"They are child sized creatures. They like to eat a lot and live in holes in the ground. But their holes are very sophisticated. And yes, hobbits are very social among there own kind but outsiders aren't very welcome."
"Sounds like Gnomes."
"Whatever you wish to call them Amir. I tell you that Elrond and I will do everything in our power to help you. You are a prince and the son of a great king. I no longer doubt anything about you."
"Why is that?"
"The Valar gave me a dream last night. It showed me everything you have told Elrond and much more. Myrddin was right to send you. I will obey the Valar and will make sure that Myrddin sees you again. They did not show me how. But we will find a way. Be sure of that Amir."
"I will Mithrandir."
"Rest now. You will need it for the counsel. No doubt that our fellow elves will question you harshly and for great lengths at a time. I will see you later." Mithrandir advised.
