' That was not the reason I returned , lady, ' he said, ' but having seen it now... there should be some at least who try to bring back the glory, the beauty, of what was, before it passes forever, and the world is mens alone. ' His eyes flashed with a fierce internal light. ' But the Eldar were also born here, like Men, on the shore of Cuivienen, long ago, it is our world too, not mens alone, although they multiply like maggots on rotten meat, - and that is only the truth, there are great realms of men, there should be great realms of the Eldar, not simply hidden valleys like this, places like Lothlorien.. Mirkwood, but like Gondolin, Nargothrond... places of such glory and wonder that they could make one weep, I am disturbed... saddened indeed, but what it is now like, ' He shrugged, ' I know it was all in the Music of the Ainur, that the Eldar would fade and men usurp our place, yet... ' his white smile flashed, ' I have always like to wink at fate, '

She hear silently and then fixed what she had gotten wrong of his words and then said "I beg your pardon my Lord, it is indeed the heart's desire to see beauty again, in fact I know of this Queen of Lothlórien who has been trying to bring beauty back to Ithilien, though I do not know, for I left soon, and could not see the results, it is always a light that warmths our hearts that of hope, Lady Arwen would always tell me 'There is always hope' and indeed, there is much we could do. I sometimes wonder where to start, but in the end that is not what matters but to do so, decide what to do with the time that is given to us, good in this world is worth fighting for." She smiled looking at the flames getting stronger as pasison itself as she felt cold no more at the Inn.

' I fear there are too few of us now, but when did that ever stop us? ' he murmured, the wine in the goblet glowing like his own blood. ' Ithilien? ' he wrestled with a mental map, this was a strange, new land, after all. ' Ah, I believe that lies east and north of Gondor, in the very shadow of the Ephel Duath. the Mountains of Shadow, on the borders of Mordor? '

She nodded "Few we are indeed, but that won't stop us, we must still fight for beauty to grow back into this world. Hope must never fade away." She then looked up a him and then turned to Glorfindel as she spoke "Ayie, that is where that lands lingers, between darkness and threat, still it flourishes among the hidden remains of the old ancient woods which still assemble those days when ancient elves walkend among them. Lord Faramir rules as I know or at least he did for I did not say for too long. It has endured many battles agianst Mordor, ans still lingers intact from any domination, though the threat of evil left footprint of it's corruption in those lands." She took another sip of her glass, she enjoyed it after such long journey though her sight could reveal the anger of knowing such evil and cold beings as orcs had corrupted many beautiful valleys and woods, still a light gealm of hope lingered in her blue eyes.

Ecthelion entered the inn and ordered wine, - although, in the high mountains, it was winter, still, the hidden valley was showing spring, in the mists of blossom on the trees, the rush of the waterfalls, the scents in the air as the first flowers unfolded, the piquant air had flushed his cheeks, and he laid his cloak over a couch-back as he sat down with the goblet of wine, looking over the balcony which showed a stuning view over Imladris.

Athora walked into the inn she went straight the the bar to order a drink before slecting a table near a window. Pushing off her hood her golden hair was a bit messy, she smoothed it as est she could and left it again as bits feel about her face. As she sat drinking a black raven flew past the window circled and came back to land on the wondow ledge. Putting her arm out the bird sat on it as Athora handed it complemtrey bread fromthe table.
