Luthien strode softly into the inn, cloaked and hooded in a long green robe, wearing a bow and quiver upon her back, and having a sword in it's hilt on her belt.
Two soft grey eyes shone from beneath the hood, and she smiled as she sat at a small table in the back. She sharpened her knife as she gazed around at the conversing beings around her, she spoke no words, and silently gazed out into the bar.
Shortly after her flew in a red-tailed hawk, with dazzling blue eyes, which screeched and landed on the shoulder of her robe. She reached up and stroked it with one long fingered hand.
On her palm there was an elvish rune of some sort, in grey faded color. The hawk rustled it's futher impatiently and warbled. She gave it some fresh red meat from a small pouch on her belt and chuckled softly, whispering soft words in elvish to the bird.
A long strand of black hair fell visible on the front of her green cloak, and she pushed it back with a handstroke, sighing and leaning back against the wall behind her.
"I guess father was right about this place..." she said softly, stroking her bird fondly, "then again he was one of the wisest elves i have ever known, and one of the quickest with a sword...but not quick enough..." she sighed, stroking the hawk as it twittered and glared at everyone around them.
Luthien smiled, "Don't worry my love, we will go back to Mirkwood, Eryn Lasgalen, soon enough...after all, we cannot keep Lumenenth and Nerili waiting for long ,can we?"
She sighed and gazed out the window. Her chestnut mare Estel stood grazing on a hill. The hawk let out a low twitter. She always enjoyed flying alongside Estel as she galloped, seeing who won in a race.

To the Sea! To the Sea! The white gulls are calling. The wind is blowing and the white foam flying....Grey Ship,Grey Ship do you hear them calling, the voices of my people who have gone before me. I will leave, I will leave the woods that bore me.In Eressea in Elven home which no man can discover, Where the leaves fall not, land of my people forever..
