The Fire Dance

The Fire Dance

Ch112


Glorduin slowly closed his eyes and tried to control his breathing as
Torfindel began to read..........

To My Friend Cirdan,
I heard my Adar and Nana talking last night, Adar had his arms around
Nana's waist and she was pushing on his chest...Adar kept saying
"Saes" and Nana finally growled "Fine! Make it quick!". Then they went
into their bedroom. I have seen other family's by the hot pools and
they are very nice to one another, the Adar's and Nana's kiss and hug
and play with their elflings and laugh and...Cirdan why do my parents
not love each other? And if they do not love each other, do they truly
love me?
~Glorfindel

Torfindel put the letter down, then looked over at his grandfather.
Realizing that his grandson wanted answers, Glorduin took a deep
breath "My wife and I were bound because of your Ada...I had only been
intimate with her about three or four times during our entire
marriage. There was no love between us"

Gwee grabbed another letter and began to read......

To My Friend Cirdan,
Adar caught me coloring in one of his books today. I know I should not
have done it, but it was a book that was covered with dust older them
Me! I thought perhaps he may not have liked it because the pictures
had no color so I made them bright and...he tied me to my bed for four
days. He yelled that if he had been my Daeradar, I would have received
a beating. Personally, I think it would not be so bad, at lease he
would be touching me. I made a friend, his name is Ecthelion...he
hugged me...it felt really good.
~Glorfindel

Torfindel put the letter down, then narrowed his eyes and looked over
"Explain!"

Glorduin again, took a deep breath "I tied him to the bed as
punishment, my Adar would have beaten me until I was bleeding for
doing such a thing. I could not beat Glorfindel like that, so I tied
him up"

"Daeradar!"

"I know Gwee, my actions were horrid, I am Not that elf any
longer...have I Ever been cruel to you?"

Torfindel looked down at the quilt they were sitting on and absently
plucked at it "Nay, you have only shown me love. Your...your Ada would
have beaten you?"

Glorduin cringed, then as simply and gently as possible, told Gwee
about how his father treated him and his Naneth, and about the
servants he harmed "Everyone thinks that my Adar died honorably in
battle, but the truth is...and I have never even told this to your
Ada...the truth is, the poison that my Nana was slowly feeding him
finally took its toll and he grew weak, That is why he failed on the
battlefield"

Torfindel blinked in shock "Your...your Nana poisoned him?"

"Aye, the servants were not the only ones he forced. Nana told me that
my Adar had begun to enter my room at night and just stare at me as I
slept. She feared that he would begin to harm Me like he did her and
the servants. So she took action. Adar did not allow my Nana to hug
me, or show me any kindly care, he would beat her when she did. I did
not know what love was, what affection was...until I met Aglar"

Gwee quickly lunged forward and wrapped his arms around him "I...I
love you Daeradar! I will give you affection!"

Glorduin tried to control himself, but finally burst into tears as he
wrapped his arms around his grandson and held him tight "I am a very
lucky elf Gwee, to be allowed to return to life and...and finally find
love. To finally get to know my ion and...and to have You in my life!"

~*~*~

Glorfindel smirked as he was held down by the shoulders "Oooo...are
you going to have at me like a Rabbit my Rabbit?"

*Snort* "Nay, I am going to have at you like a turtle...slow, and with
much determination"

"Mmmm..."

Erestor narrowed his eyes as he slowly licked and kissed his way down
Glorfindel's torso, then nuzzled and licked at his groin. Glancing
over at the night table, Erestor paused, then broke out into a chuckle
"Blessed..."

"What"

The dark adviser shook his head amused and just pointed

Looking over, Glorfindel burst into laughter when he noticed the
extremely large bottle of oil "Somehow I get the feeling that Mandos
thought we would need a great deal of it! Can you even Lift it?"

Erestor reached over and gave an exaggerated grunt as he picked it up
"I will admit, it Is rather heavy"

After opening it, the dark adviser proceeded in preparing his love,
then slowly entered.....

"Mmmm...my dark and shy rabbit"

"Turtle"

*Snort* "Alright then...mmm...my dark and shy Turtle Rabbit"

Moving as slowly as possible, Erestor sloooowly pulled back, then
sloooowly pushed forward.....

After only a short time of this excruciatingly torturous action,
Glorfindel growled loudly "Argh! You wicked quill licker!"

Erestor lightly chuckled, then picked up the pace....

~*~*~

Back in the Avari territory..........

Taurath was just about to fall into reverie when the small enclosed
flet filled with light....

"Adar?"

"Good evening ion, how do you fair?"

Taurath shuddered, but kept silent and did not move

***The young warrior is awake, though he is trying to hide this fact***

*Adar you...*

Mandos looked over at the warrior, then gave his son a wink "So tell
me ion...how are these Avarien elves treating you?"

Aglar narrowed his eyes, fully aware that his father was obviously
speaking aloud so that Taurath could listen in "Well lets see, one of
them shot me in the neck with an arrow"

"Mmmm...was it this one laying beside you?"

*Sigh* "Nay Adar, twas another. And it was an accident"

"How do you accidentally shoot someone in the neck ion"

"Adar..."

"Very well, I will let it go. Tell me now...you are bound to Glorduin
but here I find you laying with another?"

"T'is not like that Adar"

"Oh? And what is it like then ion?"

*Growl* "The leader of the Avari gifted him to me. He wants me to be
happy so that You do not come and smite them into dust" *Adar cease
this playing, you are frightening him*

***Alright ion. I can sense that he is far more frightened then I
thought he would be, I will go. Comfort him ion, I...goodness I think
he actually wet himself...I will go***

*Of course you made him wet himself Adar! These elves are not like the
ones in Imladris, they have Glorfindel and know about your
compassion...these elves only see you as death...they refused the
summons of the Valar remember? They fear us*

Mandos looked over at the young warrior and Aglar sighed when he saw
true sympathy in his fathers eyes ***Being feared is...Aglar, try to
impress upon him that he needs not fear us***

*I am trying Adar, I am not treating him like a servant...I am trying
to befriend him*

***Good***

*Oh and Adar, would you be so kind as to remove the block you placed
upon me? I wish to speak with Glorduin*

***Aye ion, t'is done***

When Mandos left, Aglar reached over and uncovered the warrior
"Shh...do not cry Taurath, he has gone"

The young warrior slowly looked him in the eyes and choked "Am
I...sl...slated for his Halls?"

Pulling him close, Aglar held him tight "Nay my friend, he was only
visiting me"

"The one who...who put the arrow in your neck. He did not mean to
Aglar, he was frightened...saes, do not punish him, he has only just
started a family and..."

*Sigh* "Shh...calm down my friend, I am not angry with him. I know it
was an accident and besides, t'is not like it hurt at all
and...and...Taurath, cease touching me there, that place on my body is
not yours to touch"

Quickly pulling his hand away, Taurath buried his face in Aglar's neck
"Sor...sorry I..."

Aglar slowly put him on his back "T'is alright. You sleep now", then
waved his hand over his face and Taurath instantly fell into reverie.

Sitting back against the wall, Aglar closed his eyes *Glorduin my love?*

The ancient lord stilled, then sighed *Aglar!*

*Aye my love, how are you fairing? Adar placed a block on me and I
have been unable to feel you...he thought it would be a good thing for
me to feel what true separation was like*

Glorduin rolled his eyes, then shook his head *I am alright my love, I
just placed Gwee to bed*

Aglar listened as Glorduin told him about what had been happening,
then sighed *Are you sure you are alright? Those emotions have been
buried for a Long time*

*I am alright, truly. Once Gwee was asleep, I was going to read the
remaining letters alone...but enough of me, I can tell something is
bothering you*

*Are you sitting down?*

*Aye*

*Take a deep breath my love, because I have something to tell you*

After receiving the news about the Avari warrior, Glorduin swallowed
hard *And you have not, uh...*

*Of course not Glorduin, I am yours and yours alone. I am however
going to bring him back with me. I think he would be a fine addition
to the elves that reside there. Will you welcome him?*

*Aye Aglar I will help you help him...I will welcome him*

*He may need to stay with us for a short time, I will need to convince
him that he is Not truly mine and free*

Glorduin smiled *And this coming from the one who used to work in
the Hall of Retribution*

*Sigh* *T'is not fair that he was forced into this situation my love,
he is young...I believe he is only in his early hundreds*

The ancient lord blinked in shock *Aiyah the poor thing...worry not
Aglar, I will help you with this warrior*
