Forbidden Falls

Ch5

Thirty-two years had past, and
Elrond was summoned to the healing wing. When he arrived, his memory flashed to
Celebrian and he gasped at the state of the elleth before him. Approaching
slowly, he tried not to spook her �May I check you?�

The elleth nodded �Nai my lord�
Elrond kept his voice calm and soothing �Were you�harmed�you may tell me� The
elleth slowly shook her head �Nay my lord, though only by moments. Had not that
warrior shown to save me, I most certainly would have been�

Elrond sighed �Where were you
when this happened?� �I was close to Forbidden Falls, there is an herb that
grows there that I needed. I felt as though I were being watched, but did not
feel any unease. I then went back to the road and�and that adan attacked me�

Elrond tilted his head �And the
adan was the one watching you?� �Nay my lord, the watcher was the warrior�I did
not know that you posted anyone near Forbidden Falls� The elven lord shook his
head �I did not, but I will ask Glorfindel if he did, then what happened?�

The elleth sighed �The adan�he
tore my clothes and�he almost�he was�I could feel his flesh pr�press against
me. Then suddenly, he was rolled off of me and the warrior cut his throat�

Elrond checked her over and
sighed �Well, thank the Valar for his timing, did you get his name? He should
be rewarded� �Nay my lord, I did not get his name. He also spoke oddly�

Elrond furrowed his brow �How
do you mean� �Well, after he killed the adan, he returned to me, covered my
nakedness and said �Safe elleth, I kill bad�, he then moved closer and
whispered �I safe, not harm elleth�. He checked my injuries, and when he was
done, he picked me up and said �We away now� then brought me down to the
gardens, threw a small stone at the guard, then disappeared�

Elrond furrowed his brow �I do
not believe he is a member of my guards then, otherwise he would have taken you
to the healing wing, or at least waited for the guard he threw the rock at� The
elleth sighed �Regardless my lord, he saved my life�

~*~*~

A few hours later, Elrond sat
behind his desk and looked at Glorfindel, his sons and Erestor. Everyone waited
patiently as he collected his thoughts �I am going to say some things to you,
and I want you to tell me if you recognize this style of speech� Everyone
nodded, sat straight, and listened carefully.

Elrond cleared his throat �Safe
elleth, I kill bad. I safe, not harm elleth. We away now� Erestor sighed �It
sounds to me like Elder Tree�most annoying to read, though I have never heard
spoken�

Glorfindel looked over at the
twins and all three nodded. The seneschal leaned forward �It is Elder
Tree. I speak it fluently due to my first life. It was commonly spoken back
then by trees. Though I have not heard it for some time, until a short
encounter not to long ago with an ancient maple. What has happened�

Elrond sighed and explained about the elleth�s attack and
the elf that saved her �Those were the words spoken to her by this elf. When he
brought her to safety, he retreated before he was seen. Glorfindel, boys�where
did you last hear this speech?�

Elladan furrowed his brow
�Forbidden Falls� Elrond gasped �What?! Why were you there! The name itself is
a warning�you know what happened to that warrior!�

Elladan held up his hands �Adar
calm down, the three of us were there when we were searching for�uh�Roh, what
was his name? Prince�prince�� Elrond leaned forward �Legolas?� �Nai Adar,
that�s it�when we were searching for prince Legolas of Mirkwood�

Glorfindel sighed, �We spoke to
an old maple and inquired about the elfling. He spoke as this elf did� Elrond
furrowed his brow �Could an elfling truly have survived all alone in that
treacherous aria?�

Erestor arched his brow �Sounds
as though he was not alone. Perhaps the maple became his friend and
helped him. The prince is a wood-elf, trees would naturally feel safe
around him. Besides, he was young, if he did grow around that speech, he would
naturally adopt it. He was what twenty-four when he ran? It has been thirty-two
years since then, if that is the only speech he heard, and this elf is
the prince, then it would make sense that he would speak Elder Tree�

Elrohir furrowed his brow
�Valar Adar, that is a long time to be isolated� Elrond nodded �Nai it
is. He would be six years past his majority and without contact with others�we
must go up there and find this elf. We need to know if he is the prince, and if
he is not, he should be brought back regardless�being isolated for that long is
not good for an elf�

Glorfindel winced �I do not
feel it would be wise for all of us to go, it may spook him� Elrond
arched his brow �You are right�you shall go� The seneschal choked �Me?
But Elrond�I would not know what to say� Elrond sat back and smiled �You said
you are fluent in Elder Tree, so you are the logical choice�

~*~*~

The next morning, Elrond met
Glorfindel in the courtyard and noticed that Asfaloth was carrying quite a bit
�Are you leaving for good?� The seneschal rolled his eyes �Funny�nay, they are
supply�s for the penneth. Blankets, healing supply�s, food�just some things�
Elrond nodded �Fine idea Findel, be careful�

A few hours later, Glorfindel
dismounted and began to walk �Careful Asfaloth, the ground is unstable here,
walk behind me and follow my path� Asfaloth lurched his head, and then fell
into step behind his elf friend.

The seneschal sighed when he
found the maple and lightly bowed �Mea govannen� ��what want�� I would like to
speak with the young elf� The maple rustled his leaves ��no elf, away now��

Glorfindel crossed his arms �I
am not leaving until I speak with him�and the elleth he saved it doing well�
The golden warrior was suddenly knocked to the ground, and the young elf was
straddling his chest. Glorfindel could feel that a blade was pressed against
his throat and stilled.

�Healer?!�

The blade press more firmly
against his flesh and Glorfindel choked �Nay penneth� �What you then!� The
seneschal swallowed hard and stated as calmly and clearly as possible �I am
lord Glorfindel. I am caption of the forces of Imladris. I am here to bring you
supply�s. You saved that elleth�s life, lord Elrond wanted to make sure you
were alright�

Glorfindel noticed that the
young elf was getting nervous and confused and decided to try another approach
�I Glorfindel, I safe, not harm. Came help you, brought things� The prince
blinked and loosened a bit �Not healer?� �Nay� �What you?�

Glorfindel thought for a moment
�Warrior lord� The prince bit his lip and slowly removed himself from the
seneschal�s chest.
