Chapter Twenty-three: Arwen

Arwen was leaving Middle-earth. She had decided that despite how much she wanted to stay in Middle-earth that she shouldn't. She wanted to stay with her father and Aragorn had told her that if she loved him, that she would leave the shores of Middle-earth and sail for the Grey Havens. She had an escort that was taking her to the ship. She was saddened because she would never get a chance to say good-bye to Aragorn. And she would also never get a chance to see her daughter if her daughter even lived long enough to make it to Middle-earth.

Suddenly, she saw someone in the woods. It was a young woman with short, curly ratty, brown hair and striking gray-blue eyes. She was dressed in Ranger clothes and carried a sword and dagger hooked onto her belt. She ran to a man who looked just like her, only different. The man smiled at her and the Evenstar shone brightly in the light. The two quickly mounted their horses and rode away and Arwen's vision faded away into nothing.

Arwen knew that she had seen her daughter. She also knew that Aragorn had found her and that she was safe. And Arwen knew that she had to stay in Middle-earth. She had to see her daughter. She just had to get to know her. So she turned her horse around rode back to Rivendell to speak with her father.

Elrond was surprised to see his daughter ride up and greet him with a slightly cold air. She stormed up the steps and spoke to him.

"How long have you known without telling me? How long?"

"Since what, my daughter?"

"Since you saw. You have the gift of foresight and know you have seen her. When did you see her? Tell me ada!"

"I saw her a while ago."

"And yet you said nothing!"

"That future is almost gone, no matter what."

"If I leave now, I will regret it deeply. I can not leave now knowing that she is here and Aragorn too. I can not."

"Yet you would have before?"

"I didn't have the same responsibilities before."

"You should leave Middle-earth. There is nothing for you here, only death!"

"There is also life! And love! I can not leave them here! I could not do that to them, not without seeing them."

"Aragorn will not survive and neither will the girl."

"How do you that is a fact?"

"I don't. I just want you out of Middle-earth because I am a greedy dress-wearer!"

"So you do wear dresses!"

"No I don't!"

"You just said so, ada!"

"No I did not!"

"Did too!"

"Okay, you caught me."

"And I'm not leaving. And that's final. By the way, now is the time to re-forge the sword. And you must give it to him. He will need it before the end, whether or not he wishes to have it."

"If I must," sighed Elrond.

"You must, or I'll hate you forever!"

"No!"

"Then do as I asked!"

Elrond then stalked off and Arwen laid down and closed her eyes, dreaming about seeing Aragorn and her daughter once more.
