Unnatural wind ruffled the air around the companions. Birds, normal birds that looked out of place here, opened their mouths to sing and nothing came out. Off to the side, Imhuriel thought she saw an elven woman playing a large harp soundlessly; sorrow was great upon her face, and then she vanished into the white mist. Kallil felt the sorrow of her people like a Nazgul's knife deep within her soul. She dismounted and walked slowly, head bowed, no longer caring much about anything, remembering long ago times.

<You need to watch out for him, you know,> Warrl finally broke through Kallil's depression, <He doesn't care whether he lives or dies.>

Without a word Kallil remounted and followed the familiar paths.

As Kalile rode nearer to the racing Seth, she saw where he was going. He was headed in a straight line to a temple of Manwe, whose joy was poetry and music. To Kalile's eyes, Seth glowed slightly as he raced through the mist, and it parted before him.

What in Middle Earth...?

That would probaby work, but I was just using you, since you were dashing off ahead, to get the story moving.

Good idea, though!

OOC: used as a plot device......


I had lost even myself in the haze. I was just livid, I hated the fog with a vengance. It was killing off what my friend held dear, what i held dear. I was also being suffocated in the mist. I had enough. I unbarred a part of me that i rarely ever used and spoke in the ancienty magik of my clan. Of the East. It was time for the gap between the two nations to be bridged. I realized that i was glowing and the mist was parting. I heard Kaliles cry behind me but i rushed on to a temple that i had some how knew was there.

I didnt even stop shabaq but lept off his back and ran into the temple. Kalile right behind me.

Ooc: Well, you're the one that went dashing off like that!

Ic: Kalile entered the temple at a run, and stopped dead. It was different than she remembered, and more grand. Though all outside had decayed, this had merely dimmed.

There were some few elves inside, sitting silently as all else in this land. One of them looked up as the two companions entered, and he uttered the first sounds that they had heard from anything on this island.

"Kalile!"

OOC: I take it that my glowing presence gave them back their tongues?

I had glowed my way into the main hall of the temple and found a few elves sitting there rather lack-lusterly. I went up to each of them and laid a hand on them and spoke in my ancient tongue. They regained their speech and i moved on. The mist had vanished from the temple and the dimmness had been replased with light. The out side of the temple had also been restored, as fresh as the day it was made.

I had made my way into the core of the temple and had found a great horn lying on a table. I picked it up and blew four great notes of ascending purity. Light blasted from the horns mouth and went alll through out the Isle, dispelling the mist and scattering it. The Valley was plagued by mist no more. The valley had been restored.

I collapsed with the horn still in my hand.

Ooc: Sure, why not?

Ic: All of the elves rushed over to Seth, talking again.

Murmers of,"The prophecy!" were heard almost more than,"Is he all right?"

The remaining members of the group finally made it into the temple, and stood silently as usual.

OOC: Fine I am alright then. Oh btb, I am copying this and saving it in word so once this is finished i can send us all a copy.

I groaned after all my efforts. I felt like a potato that had been recently mashed.

"Not that i feel like moving much just now, but dont we have some fairly urgent bussiness with the valley...?Something about clearing a bunch of mist....?

"there is no more mist. you seemed to have pulled it down around the dark elves ears. I think that you would be some sort of prophet." Kalile said simply.

"that's blasphemous. you might be hung." i was still flat on my back.

"by who? the Galadhirm or those of the Valley?" she inquired blandly. "can you walk?"

"i am gathering the courage to find out."

"Shall we carry you?" one of the elves respectfully asked.

"no, no thank you. I dont even think a score of you could. What about the horn?"

"It was Manwe's. Now it is yours. Keep it. " the head elf of the temple came up behind me as i struggled to get up.

"ME?"

"yes you. As you are the one who has been able to weild it." He added with a smile at my disbelife.

The showed me to the window to see what i had done.

"Whoa....That a bit of....something. wasnt it?" On the horizon the sun burned brightly it the sunrise. A beautiful azul and red color.

Ooc: Oh, that's why when I went to "Who's Online" you were viewing the printable version! I wondered. That's really cool!

And now for a really cool description:

Ic: Outside, the island was waking. Birds sang joyfully, having found their voices at last, and animals could be seen coming out of hiding. Everywhere was an abundance of green, in the form of trees and bushes, and ivy climbing over every building. Flowers of every color and kind grew and bloomed in the cool morning air. The elven city was revealed in its wonder, built of marble and sandstone and rose quartz among the trees. Tall slender towers rose to meet the sky, and mosaics decorated many houses and paved many streets. Fountains and streams, springs and waterfalls flowed freely anywhere they pleased. In fact, it seemed that nothing was disturbed in the building of this city, but worked only beside it, adding to its beauty. Even among the cliffs there were dwellings, marked by flowering terraces on the rock face. To complete this wonder was the music. Music of every kind drifted through the air, both gay and sad, intermingling with the water and the wind and the animal voices.

"Welcome to Bard's Island, Seth,"Kalile said, smiling.

"It is my pleasure!"

The eves came back with a belt to hang the horn on. An amazing belt that the likes of which had not been seen on earth for quite a while. Vines with leaves of Mithril was inlaid with along the edges of the belt. It boadered a beautiful wood, with green, orange, red and blue clear stones that made up the trees. It looked for all the world that you were looking out a window into some enchanted wood that was here ere the world was new. Tough, long lasting and beautiful. In the middle of the Wood stood the Two Trees in all their ancient glory. The clasp too was of Mithril, also in the shape of the immortal vines.

I took it and with Kalile set it about my waist. The horn was set on my left hip. I strode with her out to the city that stood before us to find our companions and finish what we had set out for. I sounded the horn once we had reached the gate.

"We have but one more task to do till we retire ere. Let us finish it with all good haste and then do as we choose! Onwards!"

OOC: How was that?

Ooc: Neat! You know, I was thinking that if we got permission from everyone involved, cut the Ooc parts, and made everything a little smoother, we could send it to a publisher. It would be really great if we could pull it off! (Of course, even if it was published, royalties would amount to practically nothing, but still!)

Ic: As the newly appointed heroes stepped out of the temple, there rose a great cheer from all of those gathered outside.

As it quieted, Kalile spoke loudly and clearly to them. "Now we go to find the magical Spring of Healing that will heal the King of the Galadhrim, and will be a token of our everlasting peace! But dark elves are even now taking over Lorien, and it is they who started the war! We must stop them, and I must ask for your help, the one who you banished from your land so long ago!"

The elves answered with another resounding cheer, and quickly began preparing to go to Lorien. Those who stood near to Kalile could see tears in her eyes at being back in the land that she loved.
"Perhaps it was a blessing that I was exiled," Kalile murmered to Seth,"for that was how I escaped the Mist that rose; it came to be because of the elves warring with one another."

OOC: I just downloaded the Matrix and Matrix Reloaded for my laptop! Sweet! Even got both their soundtracks! I am listening to them now! Actually, Celeborn is called the Lord of the Galadhrim.


"Every thing happens for a reason, I am just slightly confused why I was chosen?" I leaned over to whisper in Kaliles ear, we smiled and went forward arm in arm. Still uncertain about the occured events. We found our old companions and a host of brightly armored elves behind them. They were coming with us back to Lothlorien. All we had to do was find the stream and go back. Our ship had been brought around to the city portside. We were almost through.

I recognized Figwit smiling at us amoung the elves that were to be in our retinue.

OOC2: Can we go out to sea with these new guys and have a huge battle with the "lord Shendu" from page 6?

Ooc: Yeah, him. I'll fix it! I've never seen the Matrix or Matrix reloaded- are they good?


Yes! Sea battle!

Ic: "I will stay here while you find the water in the mountains," Figwit said,"I'll get everyone together and ready to set sail."

OOC: Yay! A Sea battle with a guy whose name sounds like Scooby doo! Kalile did you have a horse?

"Come then Kalile! Time to get Celeborns medicine!" My horse Shabaq was lead to me and nuzzled me. Kalile mounted up behind me and the Fellowship {of which 90% of them are missing} rode off in search of the Water.

Now that their quest was over, the rest of the Fellowship took their gifts from the elves and decided to go back home.

Ooc: There. Now we can stop writing for them.

No, I stole someone else's horse.

The mountains were still warm, but much less abundant and inhabited. There were caves here and there, and slightly larger animals.
