Chapter 12

When Aunt Sevein came into Katalia's room that morning, her face paled and she screamed. She ran over to Katalia and knelt down. Blood was forming a dark red puddle by Katalia's head. Telperion came running into the room at the sound of her mother's scream and her hand flew up to her mouth. "Telperion, get a wet cloth quick!' Telperion ran from the room. "Oh no! Please not her too!"

Telperion came back with it. Aunt Sevein washed the dry blood away. It was a large cut, but as with every injury to the head, it looked worse than it really is. It started to bleed a little again. Aunt Sevein pressed it for a while. The it stopped.

"Will she be all right?" asked Telperion anxiously.

"I don't know. She's lost a lot of blood in the past few days." Aunt Sevein felt her forehead her eyes grew wide. "She has a fever! Help me get her into the bed." Once Katalia was in the bed, Aunt Sevein said, "Now go get a Healer Telperion, quickly." Telperion went but suddenly two figures appeared at the door, King Elessar and Nienor.

" King Elessar." she bowed.

"I have come to heal Baragon. Where is he?"

Telperion's face brightened. "I'll show you. But Katalia is sick too! She got up from her bed and Aunt Sevein found her she was on the floor. She hit her head on the side and is bleeding badly."

"I will tend both of them."

Telperion brought the King to Baragon's room. The King looked at his wound. He crushed up an herb called Athelas and added water. then he put it on Baragon's wound. It did its work quickly. Baragon soon started breathing better.

---------------------------------------------------------

Katalia was tossing and turning. She was having a dream. Baragon was dead and she was weeping. Baragon is dead! No! He can't be! then her dream turned and she was in Mordor again and she was getting beaten. She was crying out in excruciating pain. Then it stopped. She fell into a peaceful sleep as she could have at that moment. All this was because ofAragorn. The athelas' heavenly scent had done that much at least. He put the athelas on her head wound.

"Will she live?" asked Telperion quietly.

Elessar hesitated, looking first at Katalia and then at Telperion. "I do not know."
