if you asked who beat up Erestor, I would think it would have been obvious...
CHAPTER 11
Elladan's eyes were filled with anger.
" Who did this to him?"
Glorfindel shrugged.
" I am unsure. All I know is that he was like this when I went to his rooms to ask him if he would attending evening meal with us. Your Ada is not available unfortunately. He is already at the dining hall with the visitors of Lothlorien and Mirkwood."
Elladan took Erestor from Glorfindel and laid him on the couch. He gently stroked Erestor blood caked hair. He felt Erestor stir. The next thing he knew, Erestor was looking up at him.
" Meleth nin?"
Elladan nodded.
" Yes I am here."
Erestor ached from head to toe.
" What happened?"
Elladan looked at his beloved in confusion.
" You mean you do not know?"
Erestor thought for a moment.
" I remember reading a book, but then I heard a noise. I went to see what it was and then all I remember is darkness."
Elladan shook his head.
" Do you think it was Hadereth?"
Erestor nodded.
" He would be the only one I know of that would do this."
Elrohir raised an eyebrow.
" Lord Hadereth?"
Elladan scoffed.
" He is no Lord. He is a horrible elf."
Erestor squeezed Elladan's arm. Elladan knew he had said too much when Glorfindel sat beside him.
" What did Hadereth do?"
Elladan looked at Erestor.
" Forgive me?"
Erestor nodded and turned his head away from Glorfindel as Elladan told Glorfindel and Elrohir what Hadereth had done, exactly what he was. Elrohir swallowed hard suddenly.
" Against his will?"
Elladan nodded. Elrohir shook his head.
" His eye is no longer on Erestor."
Elladan raised an eyebrow.
" What do you mean?"
Elrohir looked down.
" He is in love with Ada."
