Chapter 2
Legolas moved with elven speed to catch the woman as she fell. He caught her about the waist and lifted her limp form into his arms.
"Tathar, you and Lalven scout a suitable place to camp. We will not travel any further today. We shan't leave the lady until we know if she requires assistance and we must wait until she wakes."
"Yes, ernil-nin," Tathar obeyed promptly, urging his horse into a canter, and motioning Lalven to follow, headed in the direction of a large copse of trees.
As the two guards headed off, Legolas glanced at the woman in his arms. She was resting comfortably, some colour coming back into her cheeks. She was very fair, with a dusting of freckles across her nose and cheeks. Her long red hair was tied back somehow, though some locks had come free and were hanging in her face. Legolas wondered where she had come from. By her reaction he doubted she was from Middle Earth. At that moment Lalven reined in his horse near where Legolas stood.
"Ernil-nin, over in the trees is an excellent place to rest this night. There is dry brush for a fire and a stream runs very near," He informed him.
"That is well, Lalven. If you will take my horse, I shall walk over," Legolas replied, beginning the relatively short walk to the chosen site. Lalven complied and taking hold of the horse's reins, followed Legolas to the camp, leading the prince's horse.
When they reached the intended camp site, Legolas called to Tathar. "Please set out a blanket for the lady, then we shall make camp." Tathar quickly did as he was asked and Legolas gently laid the woman down on the blanket and placed her pack on the ground next to her. As he set her on the blanket a small sigh escaped her lips, telling she was no long unconscious, now merely asleep. Legolas noticed tell-tale dark smudges under her eyes and decided to let her rest as long as possible.

When Eilish finally woke, the sun was setting behind the Misty Mountains. Realizing she was lying on a blanket she looked around, seeing the five elves at their tasks, preparing a meal, checking bows and arrows. The events prior came back in a flood. She was in Middle Earth, of all places, with no idea how she'd come to be there and no idea how to get home.
Obviously hearing her moving, the tall blonde guy she'd spoken with before walked over and knelt next to her.
"Mae govannen, hiril-nin," He said. "Are you well?"
"I think so," Eilish replied softly. "Tell me your name again?"
"I am Legolas Thranduilion, Prince of Mirkwood," Legolas answered. "May I ask your name, hiril-nin?"
"Eilish Bell," She said, hesitantly holding out her hand. Legolas clasped it gently.
"Eilish," He repeated, "A name I've not heard before."
"No doubt," Eilish said wearily, rubbing sleep from her eyes. "It's not very common where I'm from, either."
"And where do you hail from, Lady Eilish?" Legolas asked, unable to withstand his curiousity any longer.
"Just Eilish is fine," She saidth ath a small smile, "You can leave off the 'lady'."
Legolas smiled. "As you wish."
"So, where am I from? Well, actually it's right on my shirt," She said, motioning to her somewhat-the-worse-for-wear white t-shirt. "I'm from Canada."
"Canada?" Legolas echoed, frowning slightly. "I don't believe I've heard of such a place."
"I think I'd be more surprised if you had," Eilish said wryly. "I don't know how I got here, but this isn't where I belong. I'm from another world, another reality, maybe."
"I do not know what to say. I know nothing of such happenings," Legolas said frankly. "We are travelling to Imladris, perhaps Lord Elrond could be of some aid."
"Imladris?"
"The edain call it Rivendell," He clarified.
"Oh," Eilish thought about it for a moment. "I suppose I should. I have no idea where I am, so I don't think there's any other reasonable choice."
"That is well. I am afraid I would worry for your safety should you not accompany us."
"Thanks," Eilish couldn't help but smile. The elf (she knew he had to be an elf) was helping her more than she could say. She had relaxed considerably while speaking with him.
"Are you hungry, Eilish?" Legolas' melodic voice broke into her thoughts.
"Oh man, I'm starving," She admitted. "I haven't had anything to eat since my break at the hospital and that was," She glanced at her watch, "sixteen hours ago."
"Then come," Legolas stood and offered Eilish a hand up. "Your pack is there, should you need it." He gestured to her backpack, which she hadn't noticed. She took his hand and got to her feet. Legolas was much taller than she; he towered over her 5'4" frame. They slowly made their way over to the fire where the other four elves were seated.
"You said you had not eaten since your break at the hospital? What is a hospital?" He asked curiously.
"Uh, it's where people go to be healed when they are injured or ill," Eilish explained, trying to use terms Legolas would understand.
"A house of healing?" He asked.
"Yes, you could call it that. I'm a nurse."
"A nurse?"
"Um, in my world we have doctors, who do most of the healing, fixing broken bones and such, and also nurses, who care for patients when doctors are not there. Keeping them comfortable. I help women who are in labour. Er, preparing to give birth."
"You are a midwife?"
"Not exactly. I'm learning to be a midwife. I'm not certified yet, which means I'm not yet allowed to deliver babies myself. I can only help," Eilish explained.
"Ah, I see," Legolas nodded as they reached the fire and sat down. "Eilish, I would introduce you to my guards, Tathar, Lalven, Lalorn and Thala. Mellyn, this is Eilish Bell."
The four guards greeted her politely and the group ate in pleasant quiet. After the meal, behind some bushes, Eilish changed into her scrubs to sleep, stashing her jeans, t-shirt and bra in her backpack. Legolas set up his bedroll next to hers.
"I am sure you are tired, Eilish," He said with a warm smile. "I should like to know more about you, but it shall keep until the morrow. It is three or four days ride to Imladris from here. We shall have much time to talk."
"Okay, good night, Legolas," She said, settling down to sleep.
"Maer du, meldis," Legolas as he got ready to take the first watch.
