Minas Tirith: Raefindan
"Where is Mellonin?" Ravion asked.
"She has gone to say goodbye to her mother and father. She'll be back soon."
Ravion gave him a blank look, which cleared. "She will be back soon," he translated. "You have an odd way of speaking."
Raefindan grinned. "I would say the same of you, except that I'm apparently the stranger."
Ravion shook his head. "A pair only? What pair is the stranger? Are we not all strangers to each other? I do not understand you."
Raefindan looked down. "I'm sorry. I meant to say that it seems that I am the stranger here, so it is my speech that is odd to you.
"What about my sister?" Aeron asked.
Ravion scowled and turned to Aeron. "When Mellonin returns, you will lead us to your sister. Then we go."
"My thanks, lord Ravion." Aeron made a flagrant bow. Raefindan snickered. Ravion frowned.
