* Arawan nods, and goes out looking for PrinceLegolas * Kementari pulls her legs close to her and rests her head on her knees as she still keeps watch for the other elves * Sphinx gets on King's Bane and rides hard for Rivendell. He arrives in three days * Sphinx rides through the streets, heading towards the palace * Arawan goes around yelling "Legolas? PrinceLegolas? Where are you? You have a message." * Mattheapar is in the armory, sharpening Narthail * Kementari thinks "If he yells any louder, he will lead her army right to us.." * Sphinx sees that no one is in the palace. He asks someone where the Lord of Rivendell is. He is disheartened to find that the answer if "Lord Mattheapar is in the armory" <Mattheapar> Evil's Bane....you smite evil once again.. <Mattheapar> shall* <Mattheapar> ()* <Sphinx> *thining*God that complicates matters. I am going to be begging the man who nearly executed me for help * Arawan continues looking for the prince <Sphinx> *thinking*Hmm, what is it with me and propriety wanting me dead. Oh well, no time to worry about that. * Sphinx ties up his horse and walks down to the armory * Mattheapar sheathes Narthail * Sphinx is not sure how to approach this matter <Mattheapar> I will ride to war with my people...one last time <Arawan> Err...where is that prince. * Sphinx stands outside the armory, preparing for whatever is about to happen * Mattheapar turns around to leave and sees Sphinx standing right outside the door <Sphinx> *Thinking*Whatever you do, don't grab your sword. Don't touch the hilt or nothing. <Sphinx> Hello again * Arawan finds the prince and two other elves he recognizing far from the main camp <Arawan> Ah, here you are. <Mattheapar> So..you escape from Rivendell only to come back <Arawan> Sphinx has a message for you. <Mattheapar> you really must want death * Kementari looks back at the elves. They were talking quietly with one another. She turns back and continues to keep watch <Arawan> He said it was urgent. <Sphinx> Actually, that's not why I'm here <PrinceLegolas> what does sphinx have to say <PrinceLegolas> speak <Arawan> He left for Rivendell. <Mattheapar> Why are you here, then? <PrinceLegolas> fool <Arawan> He did not tell me the matter...he just left. <Sphinx> Look, if you are going to execute me, that's your business. But all I ask is that you here me out. Mirkwood is taken. We need help <PrinceLegolas> is this all? <Arawan> Yes... <Arawan> He said he would be back soon... <Mattheapar> So...Mirkwood finally has the guts to ask for help...I was wondering when they would come crawling to us <PrinceLegolas> (dont push me matt) <Arawan> My prince..do you know the matter of this? Why he has gone off to Rivendell.

* Menel wakes after a few hours of sleep. Her limbs were stronger and her wounds were healing. Standing up, she slings her bag over her shoulder and begins to walk back to the army. Her legs were a bit stiff, but she walked it off. * PrinceLegolas slowly walks back into camp, wishing that he was still back at the stream * Menel calls the orc captain over to her. She sits down with him and talks to him, "I want you to take around 100 others and go to the northern borders. Take torches and fuel. Burn the northern half and return here. We'll let the rest burn slowly. Be quick about it. We don't know when or if the reinforcements will arrive." * eleryn walks back to the clearing. there are many elves now, but alot fewer than there were before the battle * Mattheapar is not afraid for himself, but for Rivendell...that is why he sent a scout to see if anything was wrong * Sphinx looks out of the clearing towards Dol Guldor. He can see the orc hoards are numerous and well fortified. They will attack again and finish off the remaining Mirkwood elves if we cannot launch a successful counterstrike. But he knows that there are not enough soldiers left * Mattheapar is relieved when the scout returns and says that everything is fine * Arawan rides over to Sphinx * Menel begins to wander from her army, hearing something approaching from the north. Her scouts were returning. <Arawan> What is our plan my Lord? We cannot withstand this great army. <Menel> Orc> The northern borders are burning. <Sphinx> I don't know, go speak to someone who is really in charge. Wait, could you do me a favor and take me to Legolas? * Arawan nods "Yes, sir. Sure thing. Follow me" * Sphinx follows Arawan * Arawan leads Sphinx over to wear PrinceLegolas is * Menel nods to the orc and sends them back to the camp <Arawan> Here, my Lord. <Sphinx> Stop calling me "Lord". I am a foot soldier just like you <Arawan> Do you not know, Sphinx? <Sphinx> Apparently I don't <Arawan> I am sorry for calling you Lord, but the men look up to you. You are a great warrior. <Arawan> Anyways, I'll let you to talk. I have matters to attend to. * Kementari climbs up onto a low branch on the tree she was leaning against and looks out into the dark forest. * Sphinx goes over to Prince Legolas * Mattheapar knows not where the enemy will strike next...if he only knew, he would go with his small army of 300 and help * Sphinx can't find Legolas(bad cover I know, but I'm desperate) <Sphinx> Great * Arawan looks at Sphinx <Arawan> He was here a minute ago. I believe he may have went out to spot better camping sites. <Sphinx> If he comes back, tell him that I have gone to Rivendell. I will be back as soon as possible <Arawan> Rivendell? What is going on there? * Sphinx whistles for his horse. King's Bane arrives a few minutes later <Sphinx> Well, hopefully you elves are faithful to one another. I am counting on Elladan's support * Menel returns to her army and takes a seat a ways from them. #My Lord, Mirkwood is taken. Its northern borders are burning.#

A bit jumpy to get to the forest though. * eleryn smiles, still looking at the water. <eleryn> i know. * Ardae nods <Ardae> Belthil, how do you feel about going to war? * Ardae sits down on the ground, crossing her legs in front of her, hands on her knees <Belthil> Well..Though I do not want to, I will fight 'til the death where I am needed. * Belthil dismounts and stands, still looking into the forest * Ardae sighs.. <Belthil> What is it? <PrinceLegolas> eleryn... <PrinceLegolas> i want you to know... <PrinceLegolas> whatever happens in the coming events........... <PrinceLegolas> i'll always be there for you <Ardae> I have seen to many battles.. to many die, *laughs softly* we are not ment to die, even if it is just to be brought to Mandos and reborn.. To see it is too much, death.. I will fight too, to the end of all if need be, I just wish I won't see those around me die * Ardae looks up, "I should not be so pestimistic, we haven't even fought yet.. I don't know what has gotten hold of me * eleryn smiles. "and i'll be there for you." <Ardae> (*Pessimistic) <Belthil> We don't know what awaits us yet in the near events. <PrinceLegolas> ........eleryn...every time we have a moment like this......... <PrinceLegolas> ....something bad has always happened afterward * Ardae nods, her light brown eyes taking on a pale gleam. <eleryn> then we had better get back to camp and be ready this time. * eleryn sighs * PrinceLegolas doesnt make any moves to leave, he just stares at his reflection in the water. he is a different person than he used to be * eleryn stares at the water, then painfully stands up. too bad there is a huge war everywhere else in middle earth, or this could be nice to just sit here. * Ardae stands and begins to unsaddle her horse. * PrinceLegolas stands, feeling like a part of him is staying here, and almost painfully begins to walk back to camp * eleryn follows him

<Nimloth> (*assalt) <PrinceLegolas> you are correct eleryn * PrinceLegolas slowly clambers to his feet, the aching in his legs returning * Menel looks down at her steed. He was still alive, but was suffering. He had broken his leg when he went down. She takes a few steps back and fits an arrow to her bow. She takes aim and turns her head away as she lets the arrow fly. * Nimloth grabs her sadle bag off of her horse with an unstedie hand and sinks down to the ground, back resting against a tree * eleryn sees more elves enter the clearing. it is beggining to get tight for space. * Menel sighs and puts her bow away. She goes and gathers wood and sets it around Sereg.

His favorite stream. He sits down on a rock, looking over the stream. Now that he has seen this place again, life no longer matters. He just sits there watching the stream * eleryn follows him, wondering where in middle earth he is going * Nimloth feels the throbbing in her leglessen as she reaches for her dagger at her side, bitting her teeth hard to gether, she forces her self to look as she cuts open her leg to pull out the arrow head inbeded in her thigh * Luinel helps her <Nimloth> *Imbedded * eleryn can see him, sitting there by a stream. she decides not to bother him, and just stands and watches the stream from where she is * Luinel bandages Nimloth's leg * Menel gathers the supplies and puts them into her bag * Nimloth looks up to Luinel <Nimloth> thank you * eleryn admires from a distance * Menel leaves the hall and walks a ways form her army, finally getting some time to herself and to rest <Nimloth> Luinel, how many where hurt? <Nimloth> from a guess? * PrinceLegolas just takes in the sights, the water flowing softly over the rocks. So peaceful * Luinel thinks * Nimloth looks down at the arrowhead that came out of her.. the side looks chiped.. but that is probably just mistakes made by an orc-smith.. nothing to worry about * Menel sits down against a large boulder. She pulls her cloak over and puts her bag behind her head. She thinks back on the recent events and know her Lord will be happy with her now that the forest is taken <Luinel> Uhh..about...1000 * Nimloth sighs <Nimloth> *grins abit* best not to think about it I guess.. <Luinel> yup * Ardae begins to make camp close to the shadows of Fangorn * PrinceLegolas feels himself start to slip away into a blissful state

Your help is extremely appreciated. * Luinel smiles * Kementari stands up and looks around. The other elves were busy healing one another.

They fight for us! < Draco> I can see that * Terrisen fights bitterly.. she doesn't even feel the arrow that dug its self in to her arm.. there is just the blade and herself, moving as one.. piercing orc necks and hearts as black as thier blood her blades thirst for more as she drives her way after Draco and Eoden * Kementari turns Serke and plows through a group of orcs as she spots them.

What is it? <Baranor> Get up! why aren't you fighting? * Draco begins to breath to quickly, gasping for air. As he his having his panic attack, he clutches at his chest and feels the Tear of Luthien around his neck.
