"alas! It seems we will never be able to get to the light!" Fimbren yelled over to use. "And why would that be?" I fired back at him. "because, the wave of orcs dont seem to ebb! And even if they did, you two would be too busy kissing to notice!" The elf lord roared back at us. I felt Luthien laugh behind me as we delved into the fray. I loved it when she laughed.

Indril Anarion · 09-19-2003, 08:44 PM

Luthien began to focus on the task at hand, beheaded countless orcs that passed with her elven blades. She had stowed away her bow for the time being.

The last sane person · 09-20-2003, 05:23 PM

OOC: As fun as all this slash'n'stab action is...When are we actually going to go out on the quest for the Light of Galadriel?

Kalile · 09-20-2003, 06:12 PM

Ooc: Good point. Okey dokey, fast forward through the battle, until after they pull back.

Ic: Kalile stood with the children, waiting with them until their hurts were tended.
She had pulled off her battered armour, (I know I didn't say anything about armour, but oh well) and had bandaged up her side and arm.
Seeing the others, she smiled tightly. "They tried to get into the city through a small gate built into the children's play area so that they can easily get outside. In all the hurry, the children were put in there with an elf to see that they didn't get into trouble; she is dead now."
Lothlorien hasn't seen war in so long that they overlook things. she projected silently, shaking her head.

Indril Anarion · 09-20-2003, 09:06 PM

OOC: What does the Light Of Galadriel look like? I mean, is it a solid object or something super-natural, or what? Is it something taht the orcs stole, or something that only returns when all evil is driven out of Lorien?

The last sane person · 09-20-2003, 10:55 PM

OOC: well, since i have taken this thread under my wing i say that it is a pendant taken by the orcs out of loth lorien andto a lair somewhere. I wont say where because then we will have to go through a lot of battles to find it and i think that is what we want.

Indril Anarion · 09-22-2003, 09:47 AM

Luthien sat on a stone, cleaning her weapons, pondering on their quest.

"The Light of Galadriel....where would it be? Where would the orcs take such a pure and beautiful thing?" she asked aloud.

The last sane person · 09-22-2003, 11:07 PM

OOC: wait a minute...your Luthien in this thing dearest.

"same place as they took Galadriel's daughter, Celebrian." I finished. Luthien looked at me oddly. "I suppose, yes...I suppose hey would. But if Elrohir and Elladan and the whole house of Elrond couldnt penetrate their den how can we?" Kalile pipped up.

"But they did penetrate it. They got their mother out, even though she still had to sail West. And how did Frodo get into Mordor, pass Sauron?" They winced at the name. "We must be sneaky!"

"Off to the orc dens then!" Fimbren finally decided to join the conversation. "No Mr. Eager Elf! We cant just traipse around in any old orc den! We have to be precise and consice!"Said Luthien. "We have to go in the right one and get the jewel on the first try!" Said i. Our years as assasins came out to full veiw.

Kalile · 09-22-2003, 11:17 PM

"Obviously this is going to be another stealth mission," Kalile smiled," I don't like those so much anymore; I haven't gone dungeon crawling in a while."

The last sane person · 09-22-2003, 11:19 PM

"so from your language i gather you are backing out on me?" I inquired blandly.

Kalile · 09-22-2003, 11:23 PM

"Of course not! I will fight for Lothlorien! I do miss my child, and I am a little rusty, but I'm not going back to Mirkwood until we have Earindil's star back in this forest."

Indril Anarion · 09-23-2003, 07:59 AM

OOC: sry about the Idril thing....I play her in another RPG....must have gotten mixed up...heehee

IC:

Luthien got up.

"Well, that's good to hear. However, before we can go anywhere, we need some sort of map that draws out the orc dungeons," said Luthien.

A cackling could be heard nearby.

"You'll never find it...Gorbag will make sure of that...."

It was a dying orc....not yet put out of it's misery.

The last sane person · 09-23-2003, 06:30 PM

"wait!" I shouted as Fimbren raised his sword. "what do you mean Maggot breath?" I went closer, but not too close. "it means, long shanks, that no elf or oversized man can dare find it!"

"where would that be?"

"I aint telling!" I could tell he was close to death, oh yes you ar you little wretch! i searched his filthy little mind and found it. I then nodded to fimbren and its head came from its shoulders.

"well here is the map!" I drew it out on a paice of parchment. It was indeed held in the same den that they tortured Celebrian only further in and heavily guarded. I drew it out to the best of my abilities and then took of in search of the Celebrant. "where you going?" Fimbren asked. "to bathe! I feel disgusting!" Indeed, i was well nigh covered in gore and after reading the orcs thoughts i felt really foul.

Indril Anarion · 09-23-2003, 06:51 PM

Luthien looked around and nodded, but then a thought came to her.

"Wait, Seth! As much as I too would like to get rid of the disgusting stench of orc, we musn't wash it off! Orcs are near blind in the dark...but their sense of smell is extremely keen. If we smell like orcs, we will probably have an easier time infiltrating their caves than if we smelled like man and elf, which would be very conspicuous," said Luthien.

Kalile · 09-23-2003, 11:43 PM

"Good thinking, Luthien," Kalile said, impressed. "I was trying to figure out how to deal with that. We really should go as soon as possible, before the smell wears off us all."

The last sane person · 09-24-2003, 12:16 AM

"the sooner the better...But tonight?" they nodded and i sighed and followed. Wishing that it would hurry up and be over so i could take a bath.

Indril Anarion · 09-24-2003, 09:30 AM

The company, consisted of Seth, Luthien, Kalile, Myanduri and Fimbren, swiftly and silently made their way through the Golden Wood, until they reached the borders, on the shores of the Anduin (ooc: I think...correct me if I'm wrong...my ME geography skills aren't that keen).

Here they took a short rest.

"Well, Seth, do we cross the river here? Or continue along the bank?" asked Luthien, sitting on a nearby stone.

Finrod Felagund · 09-24-2003, 12:05 PM

Fimbren looked at her " I say we cross here. The sooner we are across the better."

The last sane person · 09-26-2003, 01:02 AM

"I concure with Fimbren. One of us ought to go ahead and see what else is out there. At every crossing and point we come to we shoulf send ahead a scout. Who shall it be this time?" all was said in whispered tones as we decided who would go ahead.

Nariel · 09-26-2003, 04:07 PM

Myanduri hadn't said much in the discussion about the Light. She had seen it before, though, but not in this life. FInding it would not be easy. But she wondered what Fimbren was thinking as they crossed the river...
