Silmaril

Menelya pretended not to have been straining to see and hear anything that had passed between Arthain and Anwenelme. Arthain passed Menelya and proceeded to go searching among the people that were behind her. Menelya looked behind herself and saw Arthain go to Dorlas.

Menelya took that opportunity to move up towards Anwenelme. She opened her mouth to speak to her daughter, but then saw the look Anwenelme was giving her, and stopped her horse in surprise. The look contained such hatred than Menelya had never seen. Menelya fell behind a bit before starting her horse up again.

The company rode in near silence all that morning and afternoon. It seemed that the shock of what had happened even had the twittering ladies quieted a bit. They did not seem to have the courage to complain about the rigorous riding schedule or meager lunch they were dealt during their lunch rest.

Soon, the sun began to make its way from overhead to its setting location in the West. The women slowly became more intrusive in their queries for a rest spot for the night. Menelya rode a little way apart from all of the women and other members of the company. She hoped they would stop soon. She was getting sore from the saddle and she just wanted to sleep.

It began to grow dark as evening approached the stunned company.
