Chapter Three
When the company of elves returned with the four children that they found in the Bruinen River, everything had been prepared for their arrival. Once they were within the borders of Rivendell, the children were taken to one of the rooms of healing, so that the healers could see to them. As the children were laid onto separate beds, one of the healers noticed that the two boys were in better condition than the two girls were. One of the boys had a cut on his forehead, while the other boy had a sprain in his left wrist, with a few cuts on both his arms. Therefore, the healer placed some athelas on both of them, knowing that with those leaves they should heal up very good. As for the girls, they were in the worse shape out of the group. One had a minor concussion to her head; a few bruises, plus a few cuts on her arms and legs. The other girl also had some cuts that were on her legs and a few bruises, as well. However, with rest and time the four children would be on their way to recovery. Therefore, while the children rested in the healing ward, the other rooms were still being prepared for them. Although, Lord Elrond was still lost in thought over the present situation at hand, for it was apparent to him that these children were not from around these parts. He had taken a closer look at the clothes that they were wearing and never had he seen such outfits worn before in Middle Earth. With this revelation, he worried over the idea that it was possible that they could be spies. However, even he could not fathom that idea. Therefore, in complete silence he watched the children in their unconscious state and wondered when they would wake, for he was interested to know what the children would be able to tell him of they came to be in these parts. While he was lost in thought, Lord Elrond had suddenly snapped out of what he'd been thinking, when he believed that he had heard one of the children begin to mutter from their bed. For that reason, he walked over to where the sound was coming from and was not prepared for the shock that awaited him. The girl that he was looking at seemed quite familiar to him He noticed that she had long ebony hair and with pale skin. What stunned him more was that if had not known it himself; he would have sworn that he was seeing Arwen, his own daughter. For this girl could be an exact replica of her. Except for the slight difference that was obvious, like the shape of the young girl's ears that proved that she was not of elven kind. However, putting all of that aside, the fact was that this girl had an uncanny resemblance to his daughter and this mystified Elrond even more so now. As he continued to look at the young girl once again, he was sensing that she was having a disturbing dream. Therefore, to calm her down, he murmured some comforting words in the elvish tongue and with that he noticed that her breathing had relaxed once again as she slipped into a peaceful sleep. While still gazing at the young girl before him, Elrond took it upon himself to check her over to make sure that she was all right. When he placed his hand on her forehead to make sure, if she was not feverish in an instant he was drawn into a vision.
(Elrond's vision)
Arwen was sitting by the window holding a tiny bundle in white blankets in her arms. In her arms was the newest member of the Half-elven family and to one of the last surviving member of the Royal House of Gondor, it was a baby girl. His grandchild, the first out many that he hoped that would come.
(The vision changes)
He saw her reach for the keepsake box and knew what she was looking for, a star-shaped pendant that hung from a silver chain. It was time to bestow the ornament that had been made for his granddaughter when she was born. Just as her mother wore the jewel that was her namesake the Evenstar, her daughter would wear the star-shaped pendant, that she was named for Eleniel the Kallasilya elen, the bright silver shiny star. For when the sunlight or moonlight reflected off the jewel, it would give off a silvery light.
(The end of Elrond's vision)
As soon as the vision had begun, it had also ended. He did not know what to make of either one. For the first vision, he knew all too well. Yes, he once had a granddaughter. However, it had been many years since the child had been taken away from this family. He could not understand why he would have seen Arwen holding his missing granddaughter. It did not make much sense. Nor did the last vision, he saw either. For he did not understand the meaning of it, a star-shaped pendant that hung from a silver chain, and that Arwen was searching for it. Once more, he could not fathom what these visions represented and it was seldom that his visions would leave him in confusion. However, he knew that he would have to ponder over this very carefully. Perhaps, he would need to consult with someone else entirely on the matter, as well. For it seemed, that he would not be able to come to this conclusion himself. Putting those visions aside in his mind, Elrond's mind wondered to other important matters. Soon Gandalf and Aragorn would arrive along with the hobbit Frodo. For with him, he carried the One Ring of Power that Sauron desperately wishes to possess once more. Elrond knows that if the ring is not destroyed…all of Middle Earth and those who live in it will be doomed. He greatly hoped that in the council that will be held in a few days, a solution would be found. This was concern that involved all those who lived in Middle Earth. As for, the Elves their time was passing and soon all of them would leave these shores and head towards the Undying Lands. Then the Age of Men will take its turn to ruling Middle Earth, as it should be.
