"What shall we sing?" Estelarion asked Menelduliniel as they packed.
Menelduliniel snorted from where she was.
"What?" Estelarion said defensively, thinking that she was still upset with him.
"No, no, my friend," she said, quickly correcting the error he made, "I am still not upset. That anger has passed."
She smiled.
"What do you suppose a harp could play?" Menelduliniel asked.
"Practically anything, probably. Although it is a hard instrument, it is also quite versatile."
"What do you say we try Nallal maybe? What do you say?"
"We shall see when we get out on the road. How does that go again?"
"Nain gelir, gladhin an annan
Dan le cenin erdû..." Menelduliniel sang quietly, "Do you remember?"
"A, yes, I remember now," Estelarion said, smiling, "That is probably my favorite song."
"I do not do Celonaudien justice," Menelduliniel sighed, somewhat enviously, "Her voice is perfect."
"You sing it well," Estelarion assured her.
"Well, we shall see what we will sing when we get out on the road," Menelduliniel smiled, finishing her packing, "Are you ready?"
"Just about," Estelarion said, finishing up.
"Let us wait for the others, then," Estelarion said.
They quickly grabbed food, as they had missed breakfast, and awaited their departure...
