Luthien watched in bewilderment. What was she doing? Luthien then realized that Myanduri was chanting something, something that seemed to better Seth's health state. Her bewilderment soon turned into amazement as she saw that Seth was somehow responding to whatever Myanduri was doing to him.

Once I passed out I lost measure of time. It seemed like years before flashes of memories began, slowly at first, streaming thru the black space that I was held fast in. Some were brief snatches of soft and happeir days and of light; of things I wanted to hold on to, yet as I reached out my hand the spectral images sifted thru my fingers.

The stream of memories turned into a flash flood, full of the evil of wars and strife. The things I was striving to burry jumped all arould me, sucking me deeper into the black abyss. I could no longer register the frail light that I was extending out my hand to, it began to dim and grow farther and farther away.

I knew I was going to die.

Yet, at the last particle of time, the very edge of the abyss, I saw it.

This was back at the clearing, the western border and the fight with the Warg. I caught a flash of light. The light was fighting with the orcs, when that beast came chargeing in.

Samira! My thought blarred thu out the blackness, bringing me back further away from the edge.

But wait, Samira died elsewere. Who is this? I drew closer to the edge again. My mind raced, yet i was familiar to that face.

Who is this?!

Then it came to me.

Luthien.

I took a giant leap away from the edge of blackness, and the light grew somewhat brighter.

Kalile!

I rememered her too. And with that, a flood of faces and people came around me and took me away from the edge. At fist, the only sound i heard was of my own thoughts. The memories were mute. But i was dimmly aware of something going on, some beautiful sound coming from that light.

At first i heard the beautiful tongue of the East. But then even that changed into the mellow chanting of Quenya.

Elves!

With that, the light became brighter and all darkness was washed away. I all of a sudden felt alive and opened my eyes only to find more light.

"I am back."

Indril Anarion · 09-04-2003, 09:42 PM

Luthien was startled at the sound of Seth's voice. She had been standing alongside Myanduri when he awakened. A large smile appeared across her face. Seth was alive. Myanduri had saved him.

"Thank you," she said to Myanduri in a soft voice that not many had heard her use.

She turned to Seth, who had slowly pushed himself up to a sitting position. Overwhelmed with emotion, she didn't know what to say. She gently hugged him, as a tear of hapiness rolled down her cheek.

"I'm glad you're alright," Luthien said finally. "You had me so worried."

The last sane person · 09-06-2003, 01:19 PM

Well, that battle is over. For now. I thought as I slowly raised myself to sitting position. Although my soul was firmly imbedded in my body, my body had taken quite a beating. Hmm, this is odd. I don’t remember being brought here. How did I get here? I thought. As I raised myself I saw the people in the room and gave a small smile.

Then I saw her, Luthien, standing next to Myaduri, her eyes glittered with a certain, er, something. I couldn’t tell what it was as my eyes were still having a bit of trouble getting the finer details of things. But I soon found out what it was as she came over and hugged me. I felt a hot tear from her cheek fall and run down mine.

“I am so glad you’re alright. You had me so worried.” She sighed and hugged me a tad tighter. I chuckled and gave her a lopsided hug of my own. My arms were tired and it was like wielding a barrow’s worth of bricks, but I managed to return her hug.

“Hell, I was getting worried myself!” I chuckled again and she withdrew from our clumsy (or at least on my part) embrace. No surprise, she smirked. “You know, as pretty as you are, you are a lot more beautiful when you smile.” Then she kinda blushed but beat the red down. I laughed.

It felt so good to laugh after that whole ordeal. To tell truth, I had not laughed for what seemed like ages and boy did it feel good! “Hey, where’s Kalile?” My favorite midget was missing from the scene!

Legoles · 09-06-2003, 04:55 PM

I rode home, talking to myslef "I can't belive it? I got there and ther were dead orcs everywhere! arrgh, I never get to fight...."

Better Seth?

The last sane person · 09-06-2003, 07:09 PM

OOC: yes. Now remember to keep on doing that!

Indril Anarion · 09-07-2003, 11:26 AM

Luthien looked at Seth. She hadn't seen Kalile in a while.

"To tell you the truth, I'm not sure," said Luthien. "But I'm sure she'll appear soon. News of your injury has traveled fast."

The last sane person · 09-08-2003, 10:17 PM

"Oh." I was rather down without her there partly because it was her face that helped save me. As well as Luthiens. I was shocked at why Luthien had suddenly become important to me. I was puzzleing over this when she broke the silence.

Nariel · 09-08-2003, 10:23 PM

Myanduri collapsed when he awoke. she fell into a nearby sofa, completely worn out. The two had their touching reunion, one which made Myanduri almost cry. Suddenly she understood what Seth had told her about her past and her future. She understood why he knew about her. And mmoreover, she knew what she had to do. She got up, revived by purpose, found a horse, and rode off to find Fimbren.

Finrod Felagund · 09-09-2003, 11:28 AM

OOC: I know I haven't been posting but I'm now back at school (so I can post pretty much evry day.)

However, I haven't the foggiest what's happening, everything is confusing. Where are we? What's Going on?

The last sane person · 09-09-2003, 11:36 PM

OOC: Read the darn thing you lazy arse! well, we have reached Lorien, and it has basicly been one-two posting between Luthien and Seth. Seth invites her for a walk and they start to reminise and get to know one another and be friendly then there was this big ole battle in which Seth saved Luthien but at the expense of his own life. But on the brink of death he is brought back by the images of Luthien and co and Myanduri's chanting. And Mya is currently on a horse looking for you (Fimbren).

Indril Anarion · 09-10-2003, 09:46 AM

Luthien's attention was swayed momentarily as Myanduri sped from the room.

"I wonder where she's running off to," she said to herself.

Luthien turned back to Seth and smiled softly.

"I'm so glad you're alive," she said. "Is there anything I can get or do for you?"

Finrod Felagund · 09-10-2003, 12:18 PM

Fimbren met Mya near the mound of Cerin Amroth. Gazing at the mound where Amroth had once built Nimrodel's home.

"Mya" he queried, "What is it, you look exhausted?"

The last sane person · 09-10-2003, 03:41 PM

I returned Luthiens smile, although i knew where Mya was going i did not share it. "no, i am fine as would be allowed. Thank you."

"you sure?" She looked at me and i sighed. "well, i would like to get up and move around...."

"I am sorry, but that cannot be allowed." Galadriel glided into the room, with a smile. "i too am glad you survived."

"wow, i am more popular than i thought!" I chuckled and tried to win my freedom from my bed.

"no, you must rest. even though Mya healed you well enough you are still damaged. I dont think any of us could stand it if we lost you." She made a meaningfull glance at Luthien who blushed.

Indril Anarion · 09-11-2003, 06:51 PM

Luthien recomposed herself.

"The Lady is right, of course," she said.

Galadriel looked at Seth.

"You must be hungry. Please excuse me while I send for some proper nourishment for you," said the Lady. "I will return shortly."

With that, Galadriel glided out of the room. Luthien watched her go and then turned to Seth.

"I wanted to thank you, for sacrificing your life for mine," sad Luthien, sincerity in her voice. "And I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but what I don't understand is, why?"

Nariel · 09-11-2003, 07:48 PM

Myanduri caught her breath for a moment then spoke. "Fimbren, I have long wondered what my past was, and when I met you, I felt somehow that you held the answer. And I was right. But I must tell you my past, which until just a few moments ago (or perhaps to was hours, I did not notice) I did not know. But it was revealed to me in a manner which I have not yet encountered.
"My father was an Elf. In fact, he was Angathalion, your far-removed cousin. My mother was (or is, if she is still on this earth) Marilye the Blue, an Istari. Why they left me as a child in the streets of Minas Tirith, I am not entirely sure, other than that I know that they were taken and separated from each other. However, that is of this life. In my former life, I was (and perhaps still am) Angaelin." She inhaled and waited for his response.

The last sane person · 09-11-2003, 07:55 PM

OOC: whoa there Nariel! You have to explain just how I (seth) new that. Its kinda far fetched.

I controlled my urge to squirm when she asked me that. I really didnt want to reveal Samira or my past that extensivley.

"erm...Well, you reminded me of someone i...loved....long ago who was taken away from me. When i saw you, i had flashbacks and saw them instead. I didnt think i'd....." I couldnt finish. yet to my surprise she didnt sayanything and the look in her eyeswas something i couldnt place...It was familiar, yet i hadnt seen it in a long while.

"well, finish. I want to know the whole story. Not just bits and pieces." She inquired gently.

"eh, its a long story...." I gave a weak defense.

"well, your not going anywhere, and neither am i. Not till i here the rest." She said with a beautiful smile. I near choked on a stifled gasp. She looked so much like Samira when she smiled!

OOC: I finish my bio later.

Nariel · 09-12-2003, 03:29 PM

ooc: seth, you started it...

The last sane person · 09-12-2003, 05:53 PM

OOC: Yes, but when i started it i ment to finish it in a believable manner!

"who do i remind you of exactly?" her eyes held mine and didnt let go. Oddly enough, i didnt want them too.

I sighed and spilled my guts.

"My wife."

She was agape. At first there was shock then there was curiosity. "you have a wife?"

"I had a wife." I didnt want to finish.

"what happened? Did you have kids to?"

ARG! Damn, did she know what she was trying to get at?! At first i didnt want to speak, then i had a change of heart and decided to spill it and have it all out before she could say another word.

" yes...My wife was killed....defending the kids from the Witch king In the war of the rings.... She died in my arms......I was taken......two children died when the city we sent them to fell......Girl and a boy....I was forced into the dark lords army along with other Easterlings that were left alive......I came to helms deep and right before the attack i regained my senses and came back to the light.......I defected to the West to escape the evil....I fought all during the war fro the west......once that was done i took to wandering around and going on adventures.....I miss them dearly and i am being haunted by their ghosts...."

I waited with bated breath for her reaction.

Indril Anarion · 09-12-2003, 06:32 PM

Luthien was surprised that Seth had confided in her all this personal information. She knew what it was like to have family killed by the forces of evil. Seth' story made her feel something she had not felt in a long while: sadness.

Luthien looked at Seth. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words formed. Luthien embraced Seth, deciding that actions spoke louder than words.

"I'm sorry," she said softly. "I know what it is like to have your family taken from you by the dark forces."

Luthien slowly broke from the embrace and looked Seth in the eye.

"And today I almost discovered what it was like to lose someone that I deeply care about."

Why they left me as a child in the streets of Minas Tirith, I am not entirely sure, other than that I know that they were taken and separated from each other. However, that is of this life. In my former life, I was (and perhaps still am) Angaelin." She inhaled and waited for his response. __________________ I'M NOT A PIRATE! I'M A REDISTRIBUTION ECONOMIST!

I controlled my urge to squirm when she asked me that. I really didnt want to reveal Samira or my past that extensivley. "erm...Well, you reminded me of someone i...loved....long ago who was taken away from me. When i saw you, i had flashbacks and saw them instead. I didnt think i'd....." I couldnt finish. yet to my surprise she didnt sayanything and the look in her eyeswas something i couldnt place...It was familiar, yet i hadnt seen it in a long while. "well, finish. I want to know the whole story. Not just bits and pieces." She inquired gently. "eh, its a long story...." I gave a weak defense. "well, your not going anywhere, and neither am i. Not till i here the rest." She said with a beautiful smile. I near choked on a stifled gasp. She looked so much like Samira when she smiled!

The last sane person The Black Númenórean Join Date: Feb 2003 Posts: 6,773	OOC: Yes, but when i started it i ment to finish it in a believable manner! "who do i remind you of exactly?" her eyes held mine and didnt let go. Oddly enough, i didnt want them too. I sighed and spilled my guts. "My wife." She was agape. At first there was shock then there was curiosity. "you have a wife?" "I had a wife." I didnt want to finish. "what happened? Did you have kids to?" ARG! Damn, did she know what she was trying to get at?! At first i didnt want to speak, then i had a change of heart and decided to spill it and have it all out before she could say another word. " yes...My wife was killed....defending the kids from the Witch king In the war of the rings.... She died in my arms......I was taken......two children died when the city we sent them to fell......Girl and a boy....I was forced into the dark lords army along with other Easterlings that were left alive......I came to helms deep and right before the attack i regained my senses and came back to the light.......I defected to the West to escape the evil....I fought all during the war fro the west......once that was done i took to wandering around and going on adventures.....I miss them dearly and i am being haunted by their ghosts...." I waited with bated breath for her reaction. __________________ Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

She knew what it was like to have family killed by the forces of evil. Seth' story made her feel something she had not felt in a long while: sadness. Luthien looked at Seth. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words formed. Luthien embraced Seth, deciding that actions spoke louder than words. "I'm sorry," she said softly. "I know what it is like to have your family taken from you by the dark forces." Luthien slowly broke from the embrace and looked Seth in the eye. "And today I almost discovered what it was like to lose someone that I deeply care about." __________________ I'm a Jesus Freak and proud of it... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "So do all who live to see such times.
