[Everdawn]

Énien had slept very late, so late it was almost noon. Quietly she crept down stairs in her short blue dress which had survived the trip with her from Imaldris. Ultimatly the elf had hoped to slip into the lounge room unnoticed, but without luck. Everyone was sitting on the sofas and Rangar was standing talking.

"Goodmorning sunshine!" he said as she stumbled into the room. "We thought you would never wake up! we thought someone had drugged you in the night!" laughed Rave making room in between herself and Tareth. "I- I must have drunk to much, though i think that is highly impossible. Maybe i was drugged?" Énien yauned.

"As i was saying" Rangar continued. "Wren and Turthôl have left to sercure a ship"
The elf frowned. "A ship? to where?"

"Harad" Bregand said from across the room. "oh, were taking a ship?"
"Yes"
The elf listened for a while when a question played on her mind. "What about the horses?" Énien spoke up. Rave waved her hand "ive been wondering that myself" she replied.

"Well we will cross that bridge when we come to it. Now get ready we leave in half and hour." came Rangar's orders. Énien frowned. "There is no way that i am leaving Melliant in Gondor... no way..."


Soon enough they arrived in Harlond, and the elf had been in a bad mood all the way, and she supposed it showed, especially when the rest of the company were roped into friendly conversation with the locals, Énien had just looked very darkly and stayed quiet, speaking only to Calimir in elvish the whole time.

There was an inn where they were supposed to be waiting, Énien had gone to settle Melliant into the stables, coming back into the Inn she passed another elf who was heading out the door. "Mae govannen" she said to Énien on her way out. Wide eyed Énien went over to the table where Turthôl and Wren had now joined them. "That was an elf, a mirkwood elf" Énien said glancing at Calimir, "in Gondor!"

"That was Ani Dao, a Mirkwwod elf, you are right, Wren's friend." Calimir said laughing at her. Énien slid into the table. She looke around at everyone, something was different. She saw Turthôl. and began to laugh. "Turthôl, you scrub up very well for a ranger!" she put her hand to her mouth to keep from laughing harder. "Never in a million years... how did you get him to do it Wren!" she had to stop becuase a new wave of laughter had overcome her. "im sorry, but you do have to understand that is the strangest thing ive seen in months!"
