Chapter 3:

Even after my death.

"I said stop! Do you not listen to me anymore?" Lord Melkor asked Nividia as he looked back at her. Nividia had changed to her Elf form and looked at her wound that was across her chest. She did not answer. "I don't want you to kill everything here!" Nividia laughed.

"You taught me to kill everyone who attacks me, and so I did," she said. Nividia looked at the Balrog that she had just killed. "He could have killed me."

"No, he would not because I said him not to! Unlike someone else I think I know," Lord Melkor said and turned to the Balrog to get him alive again.

"I´ve never liked that Balrog anyway," she said and turned on her heels to leave. As she got outside she met on Ancalagon, the mighty black dragon. "It still surprises me that you fit in this halls."

"Yet it still surprise me how Lord Melkor made you," he said. Nividia looked at him with a question mark. "You are going up against him."

"No, I am not!" She said fast. "I serve him and him only, I don´t serve anyone else. He is my lord, my master." They walked in silence through the dark halls. "What are you doing here?" She asked.

"I am here for you," he said and bowed down his head to her level and breath free air on her and the wounds on her chest healed. "You can heal yourself you know that right?" He asked.

"Yes… I know," she whispered. "Lord Melkor told me not to heal myself when I am training with the Balrogs."

"Ah," Ancalagon said. "Because of the "accident." Now, Nividia. We all now, it was not," he said. Nividia chuckled when she thought back at it.

"I don´t regret it," she said and the dragon laughed. She then turned to tiger. "Can you take me out again?" She asked inside his head.

"You know I cannot, not anymore," he thought to her. "He might know. I don´t want anything to happen to you."

"He cannot kill me, you know."

"No… Maybe not. But he can separate you from me." Nividia looked up on him. "I love you, Nividia. I always have and always will, even after my death."

"You are troubled, I see," Lord Elrond said who came up behind her. Nividia was resting on the fence, looking out in Imladris; she stood up when she heard Lord Elrond come. "I hear you still have your nightmares."

"Yes," Nividia said unwillingly. "It is memories that I am trying to forget." She turned to him and looked at him. He looked tired. "I am sorry about your wife, I am sorry she to leave so soon over the seas." He smiled to her.

"Do not be sorry, she told you not to. She will be happy there, after the attack she would not be happy staying in Arda knowing they are out there," he said. "You saved her and my sons. I am forever grateful." Nividia smiled to him making him smile to her again, but this time he meant.

"You, Mellon-nin." –My friend- "Need to rest." He looked at her wondering. "When was the last time you slept?" She asked.

"I have been sleeping, but not good since she left," he answered and she took him with inside. "Why did you come back?" He asked. "It has been years since you left. Lady Galadriel told me you went to Mordor, why?" Nividia stopped when he mentioned that dark land.

"I needed to seek for information. This is not my home, Lord Elrond. I don´t know what my home is, I do not belong here. But I came back because I needed to speak to you," she said and took a break as they both walked towards the halls in the House of Elrond.

"The dark feelings inside me grow every day that goes. It feels I am turning back again."

"And you will not," Lord Elrond said.

"I know. You, Gandalf and Lady Galadriel have discovered that Sauron is back, but Lady Galadriel also said he is weak." Lord Elrond nodded as she spoke. "But that is not true." Lord Elrond stopped her and turned to her. "I had to see him for myself and I saw him. Sauron. Lady Galadriel mentioned he couldn't be a physical form without a certain ring." Lord Elrond nodded again. "I saw him in his human form, Lord Elrond." Nividia saw his eyes widened for a second. "He then turned to the form he was when his body died for three thousand years ago."

"That is not possible, Nividia, not without the Ring," he said.

"I know," she thought for a second, for something she hid from him and decided to keep a secret, something that happened in Mordor. "But he is back and more powerful than ever and he is coming for the Ring, Lord Elrond."

"You know where it is, do you not?" He asked and she nodded. "Will you bring it here?" She nodded again.

"I promised that Hobbit to come back for him if the Ring turned to be dangerous," she said.

"It is Bilbo Baggins?" He asked. "How long you´ve known?"

"Since Thorin and his company came out from being prisoners in the mountains. Where Bilbo first found the Ring in Gollum´s cage." She saw he did not like it that she did not tell him. "I did not tell anyone because of his safety. It had to be kept hidden and no one could talk about. But it has been sixty years and now I hear it call for its master, even from here." Lord Elrond nodded.

"Bring him here with the Ring and we will discuss it."

"We?" She asked.

"Sauron will go to war to get what he wants and this war will go over us all." Nividia could not agree more. "I will call a meeting of every race, but now I must sleep yes." Nividia let him go to his room on his own.

"I need to check on him later if he is actually sleeping," she said to herself. But now she had to find a special Ranger.
