Sapphire Eyes

Ch 17

The next morning, the healer escorted the young adan down
the halls and to a large wood door. Once opened, the healer ushered him in.
Elrond stood and pulled out a chair �Come young traveler, sit, you should not
walk too much due to your stitches�. As the young man sat, his eyes darted from
elf to elf. Glorfindel grabbed a plate and began to load it with food �You eat
meat as well correct?� �Y�yes my lord�.

The seneschal continued to fill
the trey and finally placed it before the nervous man. As he looked at the
plate of obviously non-elven food, he then looked to the one who greeted him
�You need not have troubled yourselves over me I�� Elrond smiled and kept his
voice calm and soothing �No trouble at all young traveler�we have had edain
here before�I am Lord Elrond, this is my seneschal lord Glorfindel, and another
guest and friend king Thranduil of Mirkwood�

With every name mentioned, the
adans eyes got wider and his mouth gaped further �I�I am honored to meet you�I
have heard of all of you but�never imagined I would meet any of you, let alone
all at once. I have never met any firstborn before, I have only ever read
stories and seen drawings of elves�.

Thranduil leaned forward
�So�you are?� �I�m sorry my lord�my name is Faramir� �Were you traveling to
visit family?� �Nay my lord I�I have left home and was on my way to Rohan to
take up residents and begin a new trade� Elrond frowned �Your clothing
indicates you hail from Gondor, this is quite a round about way for you to travel
to Rohan, after all, you would have passed it on your way here� The adan
shrugged nervously �I�I wished to travel a bit first, take the long way round�
Thranduil raised a suspecting brow �Ai long way around indeed�

Elrond smiled �You will stay
here until you are healed to my satisfaction, be welcome here Faramir, relax
and enjoy your stay. I will have a room made� �Thank you my lord, you are most
generous and kind�may I inquire, the elf that saved me, did�did he survive?�
Thranduil smirked �Yes he did, I believe him to be to stubborn to die� �I saw
the arrow with the poison�I am glad to hear he is alright, I owe him a life
debt�

Glorfindel shook his head
�Young Faramir, a thank you will be enough, for a mortal to bind his serves to
an immortal is�well, it is unfair for the mortal. You would surely die of old
age before the debt could be repaid� �But my lord�it is my duty to do so�or�is
this elf kind? I�he dispatched those foul creatures quite quickly�his growling
was rather unnerving, but he was gentle with me and brought me to help�I��
Thranduil laughed �Worry not adan, he is quite kind, but I doubt he would allow
you to go forth with this life debt. He dislikes being called by the title he
already has, and prefers to be addressed by his name alone. I doubt he will
tolerate master either�he is quite stubborn� Elrond cleared his throat
�Ai stubborn like his father�.

Faramir sat straight �So you
all know this elf well, along with his father?� Thranduil smiled �Well yes, I
think I know myself well�very well I would think, what do you think
Glorfindel?� The seneschal smirked �Yes, unfortunately I know you quite well
and you are a pain�a royal pain I might add� Elrond shook his head �Oh
Findel�your humor is�urgh�I believe I am getting a headache�.

Faramir swallowed hard �King
Thr�Thranduil, it was your son that saved me?� �Yes, my only child Legolas� The
young man sighed and Elrond leaned forward �You are still recovering and all
this activity is not helping, I wish for you to return to the healing wing and
rest. Prince Legolas will be attending midday meal, you can meet him then�.
Elrond them motioned for one of the sentries �Escort our guest to the healing
halls�.

That afternoon, Faramir arrived
at the dining hall and walked in on lord Elrond and Glorfindel ending a kiss.
The lord of Imladris smiled �Hare are you faring?� �Much better my lord, thank
you again for inviting me to eat with you and yours� �I made sure there would
be a few dishes you may like, several meat selections have been added to the menu�
Faramir bowed the best he could �Thank you my lord, that was very thoughtful�
Elrond smiled and sat.

The young adan looked over
�Lord Glorfindel, will king Thranduil and prince Legolas sill be joining us?�
�Yes, Legolas and his fathers will be here soon� �Fathers?� �King Thranduil is
bound to his chief adviser�Genderel� �I see, thank you for telling me�I was
also wondering, do I look alright? The last time the price saw me I was covered
in blood� A very large smile crossed the seneschals face �You look appropriate,
however I highly doubt that how you look, will matter to the prince� Faramir
knitted his brow confused as the seneschal walked to the table chuckling.

�Good afternoon Faramir� The
young man jumped, then drew his hand to his side and winced �Good after noon
king Thranduil�and you must be chief adviser Genferpel?� The adviser raised his
brow, then realized it was an honest mistake �Mmm, it is Genderel, fair
afternoon to you as well� Elrond clapped his hand �Let us sit and eat�
Thranduil nodded �Yes, Legolas will be here shortly, a certain pair of brothers
I know rearranged his clothes and we needed to sort them out, he is redressing�
Elrond shook his head �I will speak to my sons Thran�.

Faramir looked up and dropped
his jaw, by his reaction, Thranduil turned �Ahh that looks much better son�
�Hannon le Adar�. Elrond cleared his throat �Prince Legolas, please speak
westron, we have a guest� Thranduil took his sons arm and led him around the
table. Faramir watched as Legolas traced his free and along the edge as he was
led �Faramir this is my son prince Legolas, Legolas? This is the adan you
helped, Faramir� �I am glad to finally meet you, you saved my life� Legolas
smiled �Think nothing of it, I just happened to be nearby, I am happy you are doing
well� �I um�I do not mean to sound rude but�did you get injured during the
fight?�

Legolas frowned �Adar?� �He
does not know son�. The prince turned back to the adan �Ahh, nay I was not. I
have been sightless since birth� �Truly? You were unbelievable when you fought,
you aim was dead on� �Well, I have elven hearing, and Orcs are anything but
quiet� �You are being modest, I know several sited men who would have not fared
as well as you did� Legolas blushed and smiled �Faramir, would you mind if I
learned your features?� �Not at all prince Legolas�. When he was done, Faramir
pulled out a chair and placed the princes hand on the back �Here you go prince
Legolas� �Thank you Faramir�.

Genderel gently elbowed the
king causing him to look at the two youths as they conversed. The four elders
began to chat but were drawn back to the two when the prince dropped his glass
and choked �Life debt! Oh Faramir nay, nay that is unnecessary truly!� �But I
am duty bound Master Legolas� �Eww, do not call me that! Adar do something!�
Thranduil smirked �Well, you did save his life now�and edain are very
particular about this subject� �But Adar! Eh�Faramir please� I unbind you from
your debt! I�this would be unfair to you�you are mortal and�and that�s it! End
of discussion!�

Legolas stood abruptly, made
his way to the balcony, sniffed and leapt into the tree nearby. Faramir turned
back to the others �That was interesting�what type of elf is the prince?�
Thranduil chuckled �Wood elf� �Ahh�that explains the tree leaping�I�ve read
about that�� Faramir let out a sigh ��well at least he did not beat me�yet I
think that could have gone better� Elrond smiled and shook his head �Faramir,
how determined are you in carrying out this life debt?� �My lord Elrond, I can
not enter the halls of my forefathers if I do not�
