CHAPTER 9
"Adar?" Arwen cautiously approached her father where he was sitting in the garden. The sun was brilliantly hot and she was already beginning to feel its effects on her composure.
Elrond was absorbed in thought. He didn't acknowledge his daughter until she sat by him on the bench. "Undomiel," he almost whispered, not looking at her, still lost in his own mind.
She took his hand and held it with both of hers. "Adar, what's wrong?"
He blinked and observed his beautiful me'elle. She was so innocent looking that he couldn't bring himself to be angry with her for her outburst the night before. She still believed that it had all been a joke - Estel was Estel, the orphaned son of a ranger from the North.
"Arwen, I need to tell you something-"
"Look, Ada, I'm sorry about last night." She looked away over the beauty of her home. "I know it was rude of me to laugh and walk out like that."
"It's ok," Elrond sighed. "I forgive you, you weren't to know."
"Weren't to know what?" She flicked her eyes back to his. "What, Adar?"
"My little princess, you weren't to know-" he swallowed, "You weren't to know that very word I spoke last night was the truth." He looked away and muttered, "though I would have thought you'd be able to trust your own Adar's words!"
"You- what?" Arwen stood up suddenly. "It- it was all true? Impossible! Estel is not a King, nor will he ever be. He is not any of those things you said he was! I- I would know, surely, if he was......" She trailed off. Maybe she didn't know everything about her beloved Estel. Maybe his name was Aragorn, and he really was one of the Dunedain. It just seemed so.....outrageous! How come her father, the wise and noble Lord Elrond, had kept a secret as big as this from his foster son for so long? She was about to voice her opinion when a sudden thought struck her.
Estel. Her Estel. Where was he? She had not seen him this morning at breakfast, and it seemed no one had seen him since the night before. If all this was true, how must he be feeling? She tried to imagine how she would react if suddenly she was not Arwen Undomiel but some queen of a foreign land, relied upon to bring all of her race together once more and oppose the coming evil. The thought was simply incomprehendable. She realised she had been so wrapped up in her own world - high on love she supposed - that she had not given a second thought to his feelings. Suddenly she felt terrible.
Soon she was in tears on her father's shoulder. "Oh Adar, what have I done?" She sobbed, tasting the salt on her lips and wishing Estel was there to kiss it all away. "I-I've hurt him, Adar, haven't I? He-He'll hate me forever! I can't believe I was s-so s-selfish!" She cried for at least half an hour, and for a few moments during that time, Elrond joined her in her sorrow, though he was too proud to let it show.
NOTE
