Arda? Was I really walking on Arda once again? I took a step and sure enough ground was there to receive it. I knew my purpose, but that could wait. I knew of some unfinished business. Maeglin. That traitor of a son. Would he come back home with me where he belonged and away from those hideous Noldorian elves? No. It was him who killed Aredhel, he let her get in the way. Aredhel. She was dead. I sounded a low hiss as this realization hit me. She was dead. But why? That dart of death was meant of Maeglin, not her. She should live to be mine, as should all elven marriages. But she was dead. I would not accept that. She must be alive, somewhere. And I will find her. My feet broke out into a run. I will find her.
A/N: This is Eol's point of view of what it is like when he is returned. (The reason as to why he's returned is in the next chapter.) The location is very near the buried remains of Gondolin, where he died originally.
