Chapter 37
"He must live" Elrond thought to himself. I can not bear life without him. He pulled Estel closer to him silently whispering his love for him. He turned to see if Elladan was truly alright. He knew Elladan had lied that morning for the sake of his brother. Elladan seemed to be holding up for now, but he knew his body was tired and the pain of it all showed clearly on his face no matter how he tried to hide it.
Thranduil shifted his weight so he could grasp Legolas better. Inside he raged everytime he looked at the scars marring his son's body. All he wanted was to be able to comfort his son, to ease his mind. Yet he was glad that at least Legolas could find some comfort in Estel. He did not readily trust humans, but Estel was exceptional even for one so young. The silence of the ride was interrupted as Estel began to cough.
Estel's throat seemed to be closing. Everytime he tried to breathe in nothing came. Elrond noticing his son's distress halted his horse.
"Estel just take deep breaths. Try to breathe in Estel!" he said panic rising in his voice as Estel seemed to be fighting for air.
In seconds he was off the horse and laying Estel on the ground. He loosened Estel's tunic hoping to free him up to breathe more easily. Nothing seemed to be working as Estel gasped and choked clutching his throat as his lips turned blue. Elrond pounded his back all the while yelling for Estel to breathe. He called for Thranduil to assist him, but Thranduil looked on in horror. Legolas was in the same predicament and Thranduil was at a loss for what to do.
"Elrond help me I do not know what to do!" he yelled but Elrond could not get to him. Thranduil jumped from his steed snatching Legolas as he went and raced to Elrond's side. Elrohir quickly went to help his father and soon both Estel and Legolas were breathing once again. They were however shallow breaths.
Each one carefully mounted back up again and moved on for Lorien was not much further and they wished to arrive soon.
"I can not take this much longer. I can not watch him die as I did his mother." Thranduil's body heaved with sobs as he buried his face in Legolas' tresses.
