That after noon all of Rivendell gathered around the chestnut colored casket to pay their respects to the prince of Mirkwood. Aragorn felt an arm go around his back and a voice whisper his name.
" Arwen!"
He whispered in surprise.
" Galadriel, Gandalf and the hobbits are here too. As well as Eomer, Eowyn and Faramir."
Gimli's face lit up in surprise as well as Galadriel glided over and hugged them both.
" My lady, it is good of you to have come. All of you."
Galadriel just gave a small smile then turned back to watch what was happening and the others did too. Other elves who had joined them started singing a sweet song about the prince of Mirkwood. Thranduil sobbed into Elrohir's shoulder as Elrond gave a speech and Elladan read a poem. Then the other elves started another song. Glorfindel rubbed the King of Mirkwood's back.
" I am so sorry this happened, sir."
Thranduil nodded and strighted wipeing his eyes.
" Hanna le, Mellon nin."
Aragorn gasped as he heard the familar words coming from his friend's father. Legolas had used to say the same thing to him. He felt as the dwarf closed his hand around his.
" Laddie?"
Aragorn shook his head unwilling to let himself cry, He had cried too much already not only that he had lost his voice at that moment. Gimli saw the feelings rushing through his friend's eyes, but he knew the man was tired of crying. Mora stood up and said a few things about the prince of Mirkwood and Gimli's eyes overflowed. Aragorn kneeled down drawling the dwarf to him and Gimli hide his face on the man's chest as he rubbed the dwarf's back.
