A/N: Italics are Wilwarin's thoughts, she's also the narrator.
As I walked back to my room I started to think. Why was I here? How can I be a part of this? Why wasn't I in the books? All these questions were running through my head. Would my presence change the outcome of the book, or was it me that gave it that outcome. I decided I would have to talk to Gandalf about it, but not today, it was late and I was tiered.
The next morning Elrond came over to me at breakfast and told me those who were to come along. He also told me how persistent merry and pippin had been to come along. I laughed at this. Just the way it's supposed to be.
For the next few days before we were supposed to set out I stayed fairly quiet. The rest of the Fellowship didn't know that I was coming along; Elrond still didn't think they would be very happy about it, especially the Dwarf.
On the day we were supposed to leave, Elrond came up to the Fellowship and said that someone else would be accompanying them.
'This is Wilwarin Niwarana; she will be the 10th member of the Fellowship." He told them very firmly.
'A she-elf? On a quest like this! This is madness!" Gimli shouted loudly, "Why in Eru's name would we need her to come along! She probably can't even carry a sword."
This made me angry. I moved to take out my sword but Elrond stopped me. "There's no need for that." He said to me in the elven tongue. (A/N: I'm not even going to try to use real elven, my quenyan grammar is terrible. I'll just underline when they're speaking elven)
I took my hand off my sword and walked over to the pony. I started to pet it, trying to forget my annoyance of the Dwarf. He's even worse in real life, I thought.
A/N: Long time no see. Sorry bout how long it's been. I've had school and I spent a month away from home, plus I've been sick. So I haven't gotten the chance to write. Hopefully I'll be able to update more. I'll get longer chapters, I promise. ;)
Thanks to anyone who has stuck with this story. I won't let you down. :)
