CHAPTER TWENTY THREE
Thranduil tapped on his daughter’s bedchamber door, “Aze it’s almost time to eat, hurry child.”
There was no replied except for a muffled noise, worried he entered the room. To find his daughter sobbing in Lydia’s arms, the old woman looked at her King, “I am ashamed of my race” she told him.
Shock drenched Thranduil as he took in the state of Aze’s once beautiful auburn hair. It look like someone had been hacking at it with scissors, the glorious mane of was now short and ragged.
Then his eyes took in the blood which discoloured the left side of her face. To his horror he discovered that the point from her left ear had been cut clean off, “Who did this to you ?” Thranduil questioned softly.
Aze lifted her head and looked directly at her father and in-between shallow breaths replied, “Ladies from both Gondor and Rohan.”
Thranduil addressed Lydia. “Go and fetch Aranel” when she didn’t move fast enough he added, “hurry !”
When father and daughter were alone, Thranduil sat on the bed and pulled Aze into his arms rocking her like he had when she was an elfling.
“Do you trust me ?” Thranduil asked.
“Always” Aze confirmed.
Thranduil smiled, “Everything is going to be fine I promise you. Let Aranel cosset you when I leave, for you are still our little ray of sunlight, our joy.”
Aze snuggled in her father’s arms feeling safe and protected, “I love you Father.”
“Then all is right with my world” Thranduil kissed her forehead, “do feel up to giving me any details ?”
Quietly and with long pauses Aze told her father everything she could remember including any names she had heard. Shortly after she had finished her story Aranel burst into the room, Lydia right behind him.
Happy that Aze was being well cared for, Thranduil left the three and stamped off to Celeborn’s bed chamber. The anger he could not show his daughter surged up in him.
On trying to push the bedchamber’s door open he was confronted by a startled lady in waiting, “Your majesty, you cannot possibly come in here” she stuttered.
“Your Lady has nothing I haven’t seen before” he growled.
Laughter came from the room, “Let him in Elize after all he is quite right.” Galadriel’s voice was light and warm.
On appearing Thranduil said, “Thank you Lady, apologies for your disturbing you both.”
“I’m sure you have a good reason for this” Celeborn paused, “visit !”
The Lord and Lady listened without interrupting as Thranduil explained what had happened to Aze.
“The Ladies of Gondor and Rohan” Celeborn repeated when Thranduil had finished.
“Yes my daughter does not lie” Thranduil snapped then turned to Galadriel, “Lady my daughter is most distressed if you could bring her any comfort I would be most grateful.”
With a serene smile Galadriel told him, “I will go to her and do what I can” she continued, “May I take Arwen with me ?”
“Yes that would be fine and thank you” the King consented.
“And tomorrow Thranduil we will try to sort this mess out” the Lady commented.
“Tomorrow then, good evening to you both” Thranduil left their bedchamber.
