"So this is the kind of King he is," said Elladan.

Erestor nodded.

"He is wise," Elladan continued, noticing Erestor's sour expression. "He will be more than King of Gondor; he's the King. This is just as I would advise."

"Yes, of course," said Erestor shortly. Elladan decided to let the matter drop.

"Strange though...we were there so recently, and I had not thought to return. There's so little left to settle between us. Erestor, do you think that Arwen--"

"I think, Master Elladan, that this talk is more worthy of the road. There are plans to be made now."

Elladan sighed. He seemed to be the only one in Rivendell that wondered about the rule of the king to come, and the only one that would talk about Arwen. Perhaps the others were wiser, to accept the loss of Arwen and disentangle themselves from the fate of the world.

Then again, Erestor in a better mood would have been the perfect person to discuss his solitude with. Certainly they would have to speak when he returned.

"Plans, yes.. They have seen to the supplies already, I think? Then we only need to plan our route."
