Legolas of the Woodland Realm

Falling

I watched as Aragorn and Arwyn came toward me with baby Artmes looking at each other and him with glowing pride as he tugged on Lady Arwyn's hair.
"Legolas how are you my old friend?" Aragorn looked at me his eyes full of worry.
" I am fine. The family is beautiful." I responded not looking him in the eye because if I did he would see the pain and the loneliness that comes with being alone for so long.
" Thank you! Now can you show us to our room Arwyn would like to rest it was a long journey." He said kindly his voice softening as he said her name. I felt the usual surge of jealousy and happiness at his good fortune.
" Of course! Sama please take the lord and lady to their chambers." I said to my maid. She curtsied and motioned for them to follow and scuttled off.
" Come Eva," Arwyn said turning to the younger elf girl behind her and I watched them leave my eyes lingering on Eva. I excused myself and went for a walk when I saw Eva sitting in a quiet spot writing in what looked like a journal.
