Gimli went on muttering about the mad witch of the forest, while no one listened. Chewbacca and Lowie were beyond happy to finally see large trees, and with joyful howls, they set about climbing the mighty mallorns. Aragorn watched them with a confused look, and gave Han a cocked eyebrow in question.
"Oh, on their home planet, Kashyyyk, the trees are so large that the planet cities are built on them. Chewie and Lowie haven't seen tall trees such as these for ages." Han grinned up at his friend and Lowbacca as they clambered amongst the mallorn leaves. Aragorn nodded, peering around to make sure he still had everyone.
Frodo was still confused at the voice he had heard in his head; maybe he was just going mad? Nearby, Jacen looked upset, peering into the sky and the trees as if looking for something. Suddenly, a black shape hurdled from the treetops and came to rest on Jacen's shoulder.
"Talon! I knew you'd find us!" The crebain twittered happily, rubbing his beak on the Jedi's cheek. Tenel Ka grinned behind Jacen's back and patted the bird as well.
Gimli started talking louder, casting his gaze about the forest floor and brandishing his axes. "Well, here's one dwarf she won't ensnare so easily! I have the eyes of a hawk, and the ears of a fox!" Anakin gave the dwarf an amused look, then suddenly looked panicked. "Aragorn there's a-" His words were cut off by an arrow to the throat. A good twenty elves stepped from the trees, all pointing longbows and steeltipped elven arrows directly at the group. Tenel Ka growled and went for her saber, as did the other Jedi. The wookiees dropped form the trees with a howl, but Aragorn waved them all back as he came forward to talk to the elves.
The leading elf, a disgruntled looking blonde, sneered. "The dwarf breathes so loud, we could have shot him in the dark. And your hairy companions have climbed the sacred mallorns. What other problems do you bring to our forest?" Aragorn bowed to the elves.
" Haldir o Lórien. Henion aníron, boe ammen i dulu lîn. Boe ammen veriad lîn." Only Legolas and Frodo did not look confused at this. Haldir looked huffy, then beckoned to everyone, and turned.
"You have entered the realm of the Lady of the Wood. You cannot go back. Come, she is waiting!" The fellowship followed behind, Aragorn leading. Talon stayed perched on Jacen's shoulder as they were led onwards into unknown forest.
((Ps: the elvish translates to this :"Haldir of Lórien, we come here for help. We need your protection"))
