Glorfindel dismissed the servant that had been sent to tell him it was time for dinner. He reorganized his papers and set his quill down, making sure the ink did not drip on the papers. He pushed his chair in and left his study with a yawn. The amount of workload, due to the war, had increased threefold and it was taking its toll on him. Perhaps he would finish his work out in the gardens or in his room where he could hear the stars' song. He smiled. Yes, that would indeed be relaxing.
He entered the noisy hall and took his seat between Elrond and Erestor. The smells of chicken, duck and various vegetables that were in heavy abundance met his nose and his stomach grumbled. He took a hearty serving of each and began eating, engaging Erestor in conversation.
"Yes, the trade agreements with the human merchants have been tiring." Erestor commented.
"Ai, I am exhausted. They are stubborn." Glorfindel nodded, taking a bite of chicken and lettuce. He took a sip of his wine, washing it all down.
"They sometimes remind me of Estel when he was younger."
Both elves let out small sighs at this memory.
But then the hall went silent, and the nostalgia was wiped away.
The hall seemed to become brighter and every spirit present was lifted.
Elrond closed his eyes and a smile appeared on his lips as his foresight, at last, saw a blessed sight.
"It is finished." He whispered, and the elves broke out into cheers and laughter.
Yes, it was indeed finished. Sauron had been defeated, and Frodo Baggins survived, with the ever-faithful Sam by his side. Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, Merry and Pippin led the offense at Helm's Deep and fought gallantly. Eowyn's icy winter was ended and she walked into the light with her beloved, Faramir, by her side. Gondor was pressed, but not crushed. It was a blessed day.
It was over.
The darkness had been defeated.
It was finished.
