Middle Earth: Many Meetings

[Thengise Greenleaf of Mirkwood]

Thengise looked hard into Jecht's eyes. She broke their eye contact as she looked out at the stars, which were beginning to shine through the blanket of night sky. "I do not wish to board a ship at the Gray Havens nor to have eternal life, for it will not be in peace. I took this upon myself since the day we first kissed beneath the stars,when I told you I would stay with you until the end. I know it's not what you would like to hear of me, but either way I am doomed to die. For at your death my heart will be terribly pained. I met my doom since the day you came out from behind the shadows back at the pub.....but I am glad of it,"she said softly, yet there was a hint of sadness in her voice.
