Authors note: they are at Edoras right now. Yep.

~~~~~~Week Later~~~~~~

Eradrin dully stared at the setting sun. A tear slowly moved down her face, snaking along to the ground. Hands in her lap, statue-like, and sorrowful, she closed her eyes, trying to block out the memories of her Alluean's death. Suddenly there was a thunk beside her, but she kept her eyes shut. An arm wrapped around her. Legolas, Eradrin thought. "We leave soon for Minas Tirith. You should get ready." He whispered. Eradrin opened her eyes, sighed, then reluctantly stood up. Legolas looked at her with concern. "Are you alright?" He anxiously asked. Eradrin numbly stared at him. Legolas glanced around, then quietly whispered, "Is it Alluean?" Eradrin nodded, fresh tears falling. She studied the ground, shying away from Legolas's warm gaze.

Suddenly a shout echoed from the gates to Edoras. Eomer was riding out of the gate, holding a flag. King Theoden was riding beside him. A large group of people rode behind them. Aragorn was on his, leading two riderless horses along on a rope. He directed one to Eradrin and the other to Legolas. Eradrin's bow, quiver, swords, and traveling pack were secured on the horse's saddle. Legolas swung up onto the horse, Eradrin doing the same. The riders quickly galloped off into the distance, fading into the sunset.

Yeah, it's a short chapter, sorry 'bout that, but my mind was going blank. Anyways, I really appreciate reviews, and would like it if the people who haven't reviewed yet would. Thanks!
