CHAPTER FORTY FIVE

For three days Legolas had managed to keep clear of Glorfindel, much to the other elf’s annoyance. He was always busy helping Aragorn or walking with Gandalf. Anything rather than speak to Glorfindel and now that his sister was due to arrive later that day he would have even more excuses.

Glorfindel’s patience had come to an end; he hammered on the prince’s bed chamber door. With no thought of how early in the morning it was or who else he might wake. His temper snapped and he burst into the room only to find it empty.

The bird had flown again he searched the room to see if there was any clues as to where Legolas might have gone. After finding nothing of interest he went in search of Aragorn. The King of Gondor was enjoying a breakfast of bacon, eggs and sausage when Glorfindel found him.

“You don’t happen to know where Legolas might be this fine morning.” Glorfindel asked as calmly as he could.

“I believe he is ridiing out to greet his sister” Aragorn sympathized with Glorfindel; Legolas was being nothing short of a pain concerning his pregnancy and discussing it.

“Elrond will string me up if anything happens to his beloved” Glorfindel muttered slumping into a chair.

“Maybe his sister will have more luck convincing him that it is folly to take such risks” Aragorn sipped some wine.

“We can hope I suppose” Glorfindel helped himself to a goblet of wine “Mirkwood elves have a wild streak in there make up and it shows up at the most inconvenient times.”

Early afternoon Aze, Legolas and a small honour guard arrived, shortly followed by legions of warrior elves that began setting up camp outside of Minas Tirith. There was no opportunity for Glorfindel to talk to Legolas as first the Queen of Mirkwood had to be welcomed properly and then there was the banquet.

So it was rather late in the evening when Glorfindel went in search of Legolas again and he was a little worse for wear. He checked the bed chamber, the stables and then entered the encampment. The Queens pavilion was hard to miss and he headed straight for it.

Legolas turned as Glorfindel entered the tent, “It’s a little late for visiting don’t you think?”

“I must take my chances as I can” Glorfindel replied sharply.

Twenty minutes went by as an increasingly annoyed Glorfindel got nowhere with Legolas.

Aze came into the tent as Glorfindel snapped, “Think of Elrond even if you will not consider your child.”

Noting the distinctly stubborn look on her brother’s face Aze thundered at the Rivendell elf, “You are speaking to a Prince of Mirkwood not a common tavern whore.”

“You have grown into your role your majesty” Glorfindel then added “your pardon.”

Aze’s eyes flicked from Glorfindel to her brother, “If you wish to fight by my side it is your right to do so. I will not stop you but remember we are all responsible for the consequences of our actions.”

“I will not disgrace you or Mirkwood” Legolas vowed.

“Your majesty I must protest” Glorfindel burst out.

“Protest all you want I have spoken, Legolas is not the first elf to ride to battle while carrying. He will not be the last either” Aze claimed calmly.

“But Elrond” Glorfindel pleaded.

“Had a pretty good idea what he was getting in a Mirkwood elf. We are passionate unlike the frigid elves of Rivendell” Aze replied coldly.

In the heat of the moment Glorfindel told her “If you were not bonded to my Lord’s daughter I would teach you something about passion.”

“If you are expecting me to say don’t let that stop you, you’re out of luck” Aze’s eyes were flashing with anger.

“You will apologize to my sister Glorfindel” Legolas demanded his anger making him rigid.

One look at the two of them made Glorfindel pause to consider who he had just insulted without thought to the consequences.

He dropped to his knees, “Forgive my foolish words they were unworthy to be spoken.”

Aze looked at her brother and back at the kneeling elf, “Get up you idiot, your mouth will one day get you into big trouble but not with me. If you are truly concerned for my brothers safety why not ride by his side, I can always use another good elf.”

Back on his feet Glorfindel replied, “You are very tolerant and I accept your offer.”

“I have grown up Glory and you are my friend but Legolas is my brother. It is very late I promise we will talk tomorrow” Aze held out her hand and Glorfindel kissed her fingers before leaving.

Once alone Aze smiled at her brother “The things I do for you.”
