The Elf and the Human get to Imladris, and are welcomed by the guards, and by a Ranger with three other small children. Arwen stops her horse as Helena gets off. The man goes over and extends his hand to help her down.
"Thank you." The man replies,
"You are welcome, and not out of curtusy, but, who are you, Milady," the man questions.
"My name is Helena Celebrent, I am from a distant land. I do not know how I managed to get here, but somehow, I did. Please, I would like your hospitality, if you do not mind?"
The Man looked at the Elf as he helped her down, and spoke to her in a language she knew was elvish, and she understood his question.
"Do you believe that a human with no whereabouts should be left in Imladris?"
"Aragorn, she is a nice young woman, and I know that she means no harm, please, I will give her a small shelter, for as long as she needs it, besides, do you not believe her, I have never seen that type of clothing on a woman, more or less, on any elf or man. She shall stay here."
"Whatever your wishes are, I shall respect them. How long do you think that this maiden shall have to stay here, in Imladris?"
"As long as she needs to, Aragorn."
"You speak in the language of the elves, Milord. How is it that you know it so well?" Helena asked
Aragorn answered, "Milady, I was raised by the elves for a time, and I learned to speak the language. 'Tis not difficult to learn such a beautiful language. Perhaps Lord Elrond shall teach you."
At the mentioning of Lord Elrond, she was suddenly reminded that Frodo of the Shire would be here, with the Halflings.
"Milord, where are the halflings?"
"Aragorn, please. The halflings should be resting. But alas, where have you taken Frodo, Arwen?"
"He is with my father in the healing talin."
"Very well. Helena was it?"
"Yes?"
"Make yourself at home. This place is very well guarded. Do not worry."
"Hannon Le, Aragorn."
The days went by with nothing to do, but to be with the halflings that Helena had gotten used to being around. They pulled a few pranks on her, but without Frodo and Sam being around, it became somewhat, lonely. The only hobbits that kept her company were Merry and Pippin. Frankly, both were taking a liking to her, but Pippin was taking it a little more than Merry.
"So, Lady Helena, where are you from?" Questioned Pippin.
"I come from a land where you are all just a myth, and mortals exist."
"Like Strider?" Asked Merry.
"Yes, like him, but enough with the questions, what are we going to do today?"
"Well…" Pippin began.
"Gandalf is here!" Helena said.
The three friends ran to where Gandalf was, but Gandalf only recognized Merry and Pippin, and did not recognize the young woman.
"Meriadoc, and Peregrin, I hope you have been helpful along the trip?"
"Yes Gandalf. Look at what Lady Arwen found." said Pippin.
"What is your name child," Gandalf questioned?
"My name is Helena Celebrent, I come from a different world, that the one that is here."
"Well, I trust everyone has been fairly decent with you, but if you will pardon me, I must go and speak to Lord Elrond, and the whereabouts on Frodo."
With that Gandalf left to go and see Frodo.
"He looks tense because of that ring. The poor wizard must be exhausted." said Helena
On the day of October 25, Frodo awoke. He was somewhat tired, but happy that he was alright. As the day progressed, Helena was left alone. She was in one of the many gardens, when she heard horse hoofs, She left the garden and saw who she must have guessed was Boromir of Gondor, but the next rider was the one that captured her complete attention. A beautiful elf, who gracefully climbed off his stead and surveyed the area. Helena was enchanted by the Prince of Mirkwood. Legolas and his group of advisors all stepped inside the kingdom. She could not take her eyes off of him. She was entranced.
