At that moment Kenric, the Chief of the Dunedain and Elyon's father rose to his feet and said, "I too have witnessed the evil pouring out of Angmar Fortress with my own eyes...As my daughter said, great beasts coming from the darkness, Wargs, Wolves who walk like men, cloaks that seem to float on their own like specters or someother equally evil beast...And great winged creatures with long necks and long tails, a pair of legs and two gigantic leathery wings flying in the sky. My people have been advised to not travel that far north..."
Radagast looked at him and said, "Those creatures are known as Fell Drakes...They were once the steeds of the Nazgul, whose lord once dwelled in Angmar...If Fell Drakes have been seen than this threat may be bigger than we know."
Kenric then said, "These tidings pose a threat to all who dwell in Middle-Earth...Something must be done..."
Norolith stood up and said, "I will go...I will lead an army to Moria and Angmar, and gain the help of the Rohirrim."
Radagast looked at him and said, "No young Prince...This cannot be solved by strength of arms...I propose the formation of a party, to lead an expedition deep into the frozen lands of the north, to the great fortress of Angmar...They will find out what is happening, and then begin their journey south finally ending up in Minas Tirith to give the information...I will be the guide of this party..."
Norolith then looked at Radagast and said, "Then old friend...You will have the strength of Aduril at your side...I shall accompany you..." He knelt down on his sword and said, "You have my sword..."

Elyon rose, placing a gentle, pale hand on that her father's shoulder, reminding him that this mission, this time to prove herself, would have, without a doubt, come. She released a single sigh, placed her free hand upon her hilt, and quite calmly begun, "Now and forever, you have my Izayura and Golgodria under your services." Smiling lightly, rather nervously, at the task that was to unfold.
However, this youg girl kept quite calm, in appearence, that is, as she stood next to her father who seemed rather uneased.

Kieron's eyes were fixated on the women but his ears focused on the problems at hand. It seemed like the world was under attack. His mouth was kept shut for he knew he could not speak. Kieron had been a prisoner who served the king. His purpose was to help conquer and keep the Arnor alive. His skills within daggers and such made sure that Kieron remained alive. "So...what shall we do? These reports and such must be taken care off. As many might know...my allegiance lies with the ones that own me...Arnor."

Alya had sat quiet during this whole conversation. Her bright blue eyes gliding from one person to the next as they spoke and told of what dark things were occuring. She then sat up from the back of her chair when her brother volenteered his army to go forth into a battle to stop the dark happenings. Radagast then suggested otherwise and requested an aliance. Her brother, Norolith, then knelt before him, he then swore he would be at his side. Alya then stood in her elegance and grace, moved beside her brother and gentely knelt before Radagast as well, "And you have my bow."
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Rose then stood as well. She knew she was half the size of everyone else, it was obvious, but she had the confidence in herself. She pulled Sting from her side and knelt beside Alya, "And I give you Sting." She glanced over at Norolith after she said this then back to Radagast.

Radagast merely smiled at the results and looked over at Kenric to say, "I believe my friend...That this party deserves a title..."
Kenric looked at the mall and said, "Yes...So be it...I, Kenric, Chieftan of the Dunedain Rangers of the North...Lord of Rivendell...Hereby announce, the reformation, of The Fellowship."
Norolith stood up and said, "Good, so when do we leave?"
Radagast looked at him and said, "As soon as possible young Prince...Come everyone, let us prepare for the journey north."
With that, Radagast, and the other deligates ((The Dwarves and such)) left the meeting hall off to prepare for their own journeys home. Norolith motioned to his sister and Kieron to follow hi mto get ready to leave. But Kenric stayed. He walked up to his daughter and said, "Is this...Truely what you wish to do Elyon?" There was a hint of sadness in his voice, he was protective of his only child, and knew the risks of this journey, he didn't want to lose her.

Elyon stood silent, her gaze fixed upon the blossoming, golden-leafed trees. As everyone bustled away, all worried with the battle they were to fight, she heard the gentle sound of steps approaching from behind. She released a small sigh, as she knew those steps oh-so-well, and turning to look at her father's worried brow, she calmly replied a 'Yes'.
"Father," she abruptly started, averting her gaze from the man, "there is a great battle, one that will decide the fate of this world and I-I want to do something, father, something worthwhile. I don't want to hide away and wait for this all to end. If needed be, I want to die an honorable death, like our ancestors did." She smiled softly at the thought, dreading those words she said, but yet, she knew well-enough that she spoke only of the truth.

Kenric looked upon her with sad eyes and said, "Your no longer a child...You haven't been for many, many years...And I have no right to stop you or to hold you back if this is what you wish to do...I doubt I could stop you if I wanted to...Please...Just promise this old man that you will return home safe..." Thats all he wished really. He was older now, and thus was no longer in direct combat often, he would go out on scouting missions when need be, but usually he wore his royal robes and stayed within the city, he was wise indeed, but...Like many fathers...He was sometimes foolish when it came to making decisions about his child. He didn't wish to be foolish on this decision.

Alya stood. Norolith asked her to come with him so she fixed her robes and followed him putting her bow back over her shoulder.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Rose stood as well, but instead of parting like everyone else she watched everyone. She watched Norolith and Alya walk away. She hadn't seen Norolith as often as she use to they have both been busy as of lately. She then slowly turned to go get ready as well. Radagast caught her eye as well. Memories of when she was a small child and him telling her of the outside world. She smiled remembering how she was in complete disbelief with his stories. Who would have known she would come to know and see thier truths? She then walked off and got ready.

Kieron shook his head and placed a hand over his mouth. At first he was nothing but a peasant looking for a bite to eat. His skills against the Royal Guard gave him a reputation. His skills made the man qualified to fight against that of goblins and evil creatures of the such. Kieron kept his eyes upon Norolith. Norolith's decision showed the path that Kieron had to take. He was a slave of the kingdom.

Looking back at her father, she gave a small, sad smile, as she placed a hand upon his cheek. "My father, I swear to you not only by word, but also by blood, that I will return to you and fullfil the duties which were upon me bestowed." She smiled in reassurance, as she took away her hand and releasing a weary sigh muttered, "My, I am really going to miss this place."

Meanwhile, Norolith was standing at the gates of Rivendell, they would leave that night, under the cover of darkness. He was putting his equipment on the back of a proud, strong looking brown horse with a single patch of white on its forehead. This was his steed, Maerintion, which means 'Decendent of The Maernas' which were said to be the lords of all horses. Norolith finally strapped the last pack to the back of the horse and was simply waiting for the other members of the party to do the same.
Radagast walked up next to him, his wise old raven sitting proudly on his shoulder as he said, "Its a 4 day journey to Angmar fortress...We will face things there which you have never seen in Arnor..."
Norolith nodded and said, "I'm aware of that...But I am not afraid...I do not fear death..."
Radagast walked off to prepare his own horse as he said, "Death...Is not the only thing to fear in the cold north..."

As the last words were given, the last hugs exchanged, Elyon strode out of the garden where the meeting had taken place. Her strides were lithe and quick, calculating, nonetheless, as the half-elven being moved to pack the last few equipment which she might, at one point in this trip, need.

Norolith trodded over to Elyon, they had been friends for many years now. It was she and her noble father who had truely taught him the ways of the sword. It was here in Rivendell even where much of his formal teaching had been done, since there was no acadamy which his noble father saw fit for his son in Minas Tirith. He had spent much of his earlier years wandering the paths, forests and valleys of the domain of the Dunedain tribes as well as the Shire. In a way, everything he knew was taught him in this place, it was almost like his home. He called out, "Elyon! I'm glad you'll be accompanying us, we will need your knowladge of these lands...Besides, it will make the journey more, tolerable to have someone whom I can talk to about the dealings of the world, other than my sister or Radagast."

As the final items were packed and Izayura and Golgoldria secured, Elyon released a heavy sigh as she slightly picked up her head. "This will be a long journey," she softly muttered, before she lowered her gaze as the gentle sound of footsteps reached her ears. "How do you, Norolith?" she retorted quite calmly as she gave a small smile, recognizing her old friend.
She restrained a chuckle as she shrugged her shoulders and said, "It was my duty to present my weapons for such a mission."

He remained quiet when mounting a black horse. The face seemed stern and serious but his mind wandered off. At this moment, he could care less about what the rest had to talk about. Kieron would fight when he must and do what he was told. But now, nothing made Kieron act so now Kieron would enjoy his slight freedom by fantasizing. Placing hands on each side, fingers felt upon the daggers that kept the boy alive for so long. They were treasured more than those around him would know. "Shall we be going?" Kieron finally let his lips open. The voice was coarse and unwelcoming.
