Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "You should get some rest, for it will be a long day tomorrow and we must move fast.Remember to cover you horse before you go to sleep, as it will be a chilly night" he said and touched her other cheek with his hand softly. He smiled and looked into her eyes quietly for a while before he stood up and offered his hand to help her up. "And if the other campfire surroundings are occupied, you are welcomed to stay by my fire, milady" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Emara thanked him for his hand and accepted his help to stand. She nodded that she would cover her horse and smiled at how he called her 'milady'. It was not a title she was used to hearing. "Thank you," she said quietly. Then, she slipped over to her horse, covered it, and came back. "My brother may throw a fit when he finds me still here in the morning." What she left unsaid was that she didn't care.

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 Ilenal smiled and layed down, placing his saddlebags as a hard pillow. He took a blanket and covered himself, looking at Emara before he feel asleep, he smiled. --Whoopanothertimejumpwhoop-- Early in the morning, the campfire of Ilenal's was once again lit up but the elf was nowhere to be seen. He sat next to the cave entrance, moking his pipe quietly as he atched the sun rise from above the tall, dark mountains and cast the shadow upon the high pass. It was still moist and the chilly wind was there also. Ilenal had taken his cloak and now it was wrapped around the noldo body tightly, but the hood was still down. He was like amde of stone, just sitting there and thinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokemaster Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Caer had awakened before Ilenal, but lay still. He didn't want to disturb the others, and he didn't want Tanos asking questions again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Tanos awoke and saw Ilenal seated at the mouth of the cave. He got up and approached the Elf. Though he had so much he wanted to tell Ilenal, none of it would leave his mouth. With a sigh, he sat next to Ilenal, lit his pipe, and watched the sunrise.

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 The elf glanced at the man and took his pipe from his mouth, making a couple of smoke rings. "Cat got your tongue?" he asked and looked at the mountainside on the other side of the pass with a smile, placing the pipe again onto his lips. He felt that Tanos wanted to say something, because the athmosphere of the moment changed immediatly when he came and lit up his pipe. He could see the human with the corner of his eye and chcuckled a bit. "You can tell me, for I am a very calm man most of the time and if you can keep your temper under control" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "Well, then I'm disappointed. I you would go around messing with my sister, I would have some well selected words to give you" he said and kept looking forwards, blowing smoke from the side of his mouth as he smoked the pipe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "I would've thought that you had more guts than that" he said and stood up, closing th hatch on the pipe nd placed it on the bag on his belt. He left towards the back of the cave again, ot giving the man another look. He unwrapped his cloak from around him and looked at Emara silently. He sat down nex to the fire and smiled, just staring at the woman quietly as she slept. He kept the pipe in the bag and did not start to smoke this time. He started a quiet song about Rohan and kept it as merely a whisper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Tanos turned and watched as Ilenal went back to Emara and the fire. He shook his head slowly and turned back toward the sunrise. Normally, he'd do more. He would have actually warned Ilenal not to speak with Emara, but something held him back. It irritated him, but as he wasn't sure what it was, there wasn't much he could do about it. Emara was dreaming of Rohan. At first, it was the peaceful Rohan she'd grown up in. But then things changed and she watched as an army marched through, trampling everything... and she woke up, startled. She saw Ilenal before anything else. "Rohan," she murmured. Then, "Good morning." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "Morning" he said and looked at her with a smile. A couple of arcers had started making breakfast as soon as they had otten up and Ilenal looked at them. "Breakfast is almost ready, and your brother is outside" he said in the tongue that was spoken in Rohan and nodded towards the cave entrance. The elven head turned back to look at Emara after that and he smile warmly. "Do not be afraid of Rohan. It is the home of the horse lords and the dwelling place of Rohirrim. They will fight to the last man if it comes to it. Rohan is quite safe" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 "Even the Horse Lords will need help if what I have dreamed is what is to come," Emara told him. "A great army, ten thousand at least. Destroying everything I've known and loved." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jokemaster Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Caer silently stood up and walked to the archers' camps to wait for breakfast, carefully avoiding Tanos, Ilenal, and Emera. The archers were silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Ever awoke not long after Caer went to wait for breakfast. He saw Tanos, but knew from the look on Tanos' face that it would not be good to disturb him. He saw Ilenal and Emara, but they looked like they were having a serious discussion... something he was not terribly fond of. With a sigh, he went over to see how breakfast was coming... and found himself standing by Caer. "Did you sleep restfully?" he asked the man, trying to spark some conversation.

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "But you do not know when this army is to be. It might be another thousand years until the army marches on the lands of Rohan" he said as his smile faded slowly. "Rohirrim is strong and even if Gondor's and Rohan's ties are chilly, they need each others to be intact. Gondor will come to aid in case of that kind of an army" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Knight of Keno Posted November 24, 2005 Author Share Posted November 24, 2005 "You're welcome" he said and nodded. He took out the map again and looked at it. "We still have many days to travel. I would say a week to Lorien and a couple of days to Edoras from there" he said and looked at Emara. "We leave after breakfast" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Writer Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Emara nodded that she understood and went to see Tanos. "You're quiet," she observed. "You love an Elf," he answered. "Of course, I'm quiet." "Tanos," she started, but he cut her off. "Emara, he's going to leave Middle Earth someday," he said. "I don't want you hurt because the sea called him away before you were ready." "The call of the sea is strong," Emara agreed. "But what of love?" "He loves his sister too," Tanos answered. "If he stays, he'll be forever torn between his love for you and his desire to leave." "Then perhaps I can go with him," Emara said. Tanos stared at her in open astonishment. "Even if you could, you would be turned away at the ship's destination," he said. "No, Emara that wouldn't work. Couldn't work. You'll end up with a broken heart if you stay with him now." "Perhaps this love is enough that I don't care," Emara told him. After staring at her for a few more seconds, Tanos sighed. "Then there is nothing more for me to say," he said. --------------------------- "Do you travel that much?" Ever wondered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
