Ah, today was fun, just if any of you cared to know. I won't doubt that if I go and look at the chapter name that it ends up being something completely random. More than likely Mercy Peak... but don't ask. Hopefully none of you will be subjugated to such randomness completely irrelevant to the story. *gives GollumRox a Look* Anyways, yeah. Reviewssssss!!

Saijin*Princess*Arien: Hello! *waves madly* Glad the story is good, I'll do my best to keep it that way!!

Carmen: Wow, your review was kinda creepy. I don't even want to know about you guys impeding on each other's mental space or something...

Azrael: Weeee!!! Spiffy, I feel loved. And Sauron's feeling loved for like the first time in his life but he wouldn't get it.

GollumRox: The chapter title was so not true, but we've gone over it and worked out stuff, didn't we darling? And yeah, maybe you should, you know, update once and a while. Hehe. And please be nice to Juana, she's the only wifey you'll ever get, you pearl obsessed freak!! Anyways... lots of random comments, some things I don't want to probe into... oh. MERCY PEAAAK!!! muahahahaha.

Pherhyandoiel: Normally I only have red fusion in the summer when I go to Iowa, because then they have it in the bottles. And that's spiffy.

Mystic Catface: Spazzing is like having your muscles flex unintentionally. I think that would be the proper way to say it. Like, somebody who has a tick or something, you know. Sometimes when you hear something or see something you don't want to, you spaz. Or more properly you have a spasm. But whatever, it's all good. Actually, Sauron isn't completely to his normal evil self, he's just to his annoying jerk self, but I'll get him up to evil sometime. Yeah, and they have an odd relationship... and I'm not even sure what I'm going to do with it. Blegh.

Ewan McGorgeous: I do like being bowed to. And now I can just command her to bow to me cause I bought her soul for a sour apple laffy taffy! MUAHAHA- oh wait, I didn't buy her soul. I made her swear fealty to me forever. Well... it's still close enough and she still has to bow. But we already got the chapter title thing squared away.

XNemesis: At first I didn't think I'd have like anything about Eonwe, but I think I'll have more of him than I thought at first. I dunno yet though, I'll just have to see what happens. Yes, we'll have to work something out with the world. Could cause some chaos and crap like that. But that's still out there a bit so we can worry about it later! Actually I was thinking that Haldir wouldn't know Quenya. Because he was a silvan elf more than likely, and the only elf who might speak Quenya would be Galadriel. However, I doubt that she would speak it cause she wouldn't have anybody to speak it with, because Celeborn wouldn't know it because he was from Doriath and Thingol had put a ban on anybody speaking Quenya, and pretty much all of the elves of Lorien wouldn't either. So I bet that Haldir would only know like Sindarin. And therefore it was my thought that the elves in Valinor were speaking Quenya, and that was why Haldir couldn't figure it out.

Kit Cloudkicker: Yeah, maybe that is Sauron's problem. Just too many voices. Hehehe... I know it bothers me

Lobo Diablo Lone Wolf: Sauron isn't that bad? o_O Hmm... did you miss like the list of bad things he did? I mean... he's evil!! He's a total meany pushy snooty power-obsessed jerk! Of course, it amuses my diabolical side, but he's still bad. Bad bad bad!

Black Thunder44: I feel so powerful, inspiring feelings of pity for a person so naughty! Kudos to me! Hahaha, yeah, he is really unlucky. And weird enough I talk about that in another chapter too. Wow!!

Demonica: Elves like stars. Ta-da, now you get it. Weeee.... and I'm never explaining anything to you because you just ignore me! *bursts into tears* But whatever. Hehe.... anyways. And so you know they didn't walk onto an airplane smart one, it said boat. Derr. Pay attention! Muah... so wow, you had a ton of catching up to do. Wow. And shucks, that was some nice things to say. Tht is what you should do, lay on the compliments. I wish I could just be a writer... I'd love that. But sadly that is a very hit-or-miss job. Rumil is Haldir's... brother, yes. And I'm glad you could vent.

Darth T-Rex: *smiles stupidly* I'm glad that I'm able to pull off Sauron well. It was a bit hard at the start, but I'd like to think that I've gotten the formular for it now!

Elderberry: Well, I told you that I was going to quote you! It was a snazzy quote! *snaps fingers* Aww... come on? You don't want Sauron to start spouting love songs and getting stuff for the benefits of other people besides himself? No romantic moonlight strolls along the beach? ... Okay I'm going to stop now cause I'm just about making myself gag. No worries, Sauron wouldn't be able to figure out love if it slapped him across the face. So no matter what something looks like, don't worry.

Weeeeeeeeell then, here's the chappie! A bit short yes, but as this is a long weekend, I'll hopefully have another posted before next monday.

Elhith led the way, turning down streets that became less crowded and narrower as they went, allowing the lanes of grass to become wider. Everything was pleasant and peaceful. Haldir could tell that he would like it there.

The road was finally only a few feet wide when Elhith turned into an alley and walked nearly all the way to the end. "The buildings each have two homes, one in the front half and one in the back," he explained as they went. "It was figured that having the back would be better, a bit more secluded from everybody else."

"That was probably a good idea."

"Yes, it probably was."

Elhith opened the door, and then stood back so that Haldir could go in. Slowly, he took a step inside, but did not get much farther than a few feet.

Unlike his previous home, which had been very modestly furnished, he could already tell that this one was full of luxuries that he would never have even dreamed about. Of course, living in a building was a bit different from living in a flet in a tree, so that might have had a bit to do with it. There was only so much you could put up in those.

Elhith came in, shutting the door behind him. "It isn't very much all told, but it should be large enough that if you need to get some space, you should be able to find it without having to go out into the city. However, there is a lawn down the alley a bit farther, so you could go there if you really wanted to."

Haldir nodded, and then looked around the house a bit, very slowly, almost leery of it because of its size.

"The bedrooms are upstairs, if you cared to know."

Haldir quickly turned around and frowned. "Upstairs?"

"Yes, on the second story."

"There is another level?" Haldir asked, blinking a couple times.

"Well, the rooms wouldn't be up there if there wasn't."

This needed a moment of consideration. Yes, Haldir had realized that the buildings were quite large and that it was likely that they would have more than one floor, however he had not really anticipated that he would be living somewhere like that. Very rarely had anybody had homes which had more than one level. Haldir figured that only the most noble of their people had homes like that, such as Galadriel. But the thought that he would now live somewhere with two stories, well, that was a bit much.

He summed it up to compensation. He'd need all the room he could get after all.

For a while after that he looked around, opening drawers and peaking in closets, just to see what was in them. Everything was pretty set and taken care of, and Haldir could not think of anything pressing that he would need to get.

Presently he came back to what seemed to be the main room where he found Elhith reading a book. He sat down on one of the couches and looked out a window for a bit before speaking. "Well, what do we do now?" he asked.

Elhith did not turn his attention away from his book when he replied. "We wait."

Wow, yeah, that was short. The review thing was almost longer! But hopefully another one. Just gotta wait a day or two!
