After the unexpected encounter with Melian I didnt saw her again.At least from that close distance.

We stayed two weeks at doriath as Aegnor wanted more time to discuss with the Kind several topics.

I was really curious to see Luthien but the princess of Doriath didn't show up at all. Einar said me that she did not like being inside the Caves and preferred the clear air of the Forest. I couldn't go search her this time but definitely one day i would meet her.

About the Teleri food i found it quite simple but at the same time really delicious. I was bored eating all the time lembas so a change in the menu was one of the things I waited when i arrived in the Forest.

The last remaining day in Doriath

I desided to take a walk outside in the forest of Neldorerh for a last time.

I wanted to see the place one more time before leaving.

Maybe one day I could return there.

With Sanya.

Maybe if the future changed the forest had not to be adandoned.. but even the most powerful empires one day fall and crumble uder the feet of their enemies.

the only think that changes is if they fell with honor or with disgrace of the betrayal of their own blood...

if somehow i could change their tragic fate i would be relieved..

I walked by the river hearing its song amd humming a tine of a old song i remembered.

~~Long has been my journey

That led me to these halls

But now I kneel before thee

As grief my spirit calls~~

"My lady!" I heard a voice calling me. It was Tristan.

"Are you going alone for a walk?"

" yes!Is there a problem? May you need help to pack the stuff?"

"No it's alright we're almost done..I was taking a break nerby so..Can i join you?"

"Oh of course!"

"Thank you.."

Silence fell for a minute..

"Soyou have any plans on your mind?"he askedas we were walking.

"Such as?"

"Generally talking..are you gonna continue be the representative of house Feanor after we return?"

"I wasn't planning continue this carrier path to be honest... after all im not even blod related to the family. I was lucky the let me come this time.When i return I'll continue living in the camp i guess..."

"Just that?"

"Well i hope one day I'll be a healer like Sanya to help you even a little.."

"Must be hard.."

"What do you mean with this.?.."

"Being with people not from your kind.. you've really survived all this time when you could just think only about yourself as you're weaker than everybody else"

"Well I'm weak in physical strength but have you seen me using a pan? You dont wanna have such an encounter with me when I wield my Allmighty pan for sure"

I joked

"Do other humans use pans as weapons as well?"he asked with a completely innocent face.

"Ahmm.. no but im an exeption..You have to be carefull!"

"Pardon me if i ask something weird..We had not a proper talk alone ever before and im kinda curious..Lord Maedhros doesn't want others to talk about you.."

"Did he really order that?"I asked with wide eyes. Why Maedhros would do something like this?!

"Not exactly but isn't fond when we discuss about humans. Not many elves new your existance before Lord Fingon returned...The houses heads didn't talk a lot about you"

"Its not that im a national secreat .. i guess they were questioning themselves about this matter too.."

"My brother died protecting you so you must be an important person.Tou just said yourself how dangerous you can be wirh a pan!"

"Oh..your brother..I think he would have sacrificed himself whoever he had to protect. He was a good soldier. Am still mad with myself about that.. i wasn't able to get help sooner"

"Its not your fault.."

"How this conversation turned this way?!..Lets change the topic! Which is your favourite kind of flower?"

"Alex!" A voice said and a head popped between us.

"Emyr !"

"Where's the other one?" Tristan asked looking at him clearly disturbed.

"Did anybody call for me?" Idwar said and appeared beside him with a smirk.

"Did you finish already your work?!" Tristan asked them and raised a brow.

"We're taking a small break! We'll finish it later!" Emyr responded.

"You better finish it because if i find anything missing I'll drag you from your ears back home!"Tristan threatened them.

"Can we join you?" Idwar asked.

"Did we interrupted you?" Emyr added.

"Yes you did ! " Tristan responded and turned towards me.

"You want them to stay?"

"As long as you don't have a problem too"

Tristan left a sigh

"Okay then! We can go a walk altogether"

"But!" Tristan added looking at them in the eyes.

"Dont forget the job you have to get done later"

"We'll not!" Emyr and Idwar assured him.

"Soo.. when you desided to interrupt me I was asking Tristan something. You didn't tell me what's your favourite flower!" I said and smiled.

"Eh..I.." Tristan mumbled.

"I really like roses"

A small elven Timeskip ~~~

"Now its time for me to leave you. I have to pack the supplies for our journey" Tristan said and bowed.

Emyr and Idwar copied him.

"I really enjoyed spending time with you guys! Well speak tomorrow!"I said and waved as they were leaving.

I had to pack my stuff too but i had enough time left to spend before returning in my room.

I could take another stroll besides the river.

I wasn't really paying attention to what was going on around me and accidentally bumped up on someone.

"Oh im really sorry! I wasn't paying attention at all!" I appologised as I raised my head to look who I bump up to.

It was an elf.An elf with white hair.

"Uhm..hello!" I said smiling akwardly.

He bowed "don't you remember me?"

"Ehm.. actually.. I do- wait..are you?"

I definitely had seen before his face but i couldn't understand when and where.

"Im Seregon. You saved me from the wolves back then"

I made the suprised Pikachu face and stared at him for a while. He was looking alright and healthy. Only a few weeks had passed from the accident and he was already fine?! Maedhros was a whole year in the bed with onky one hand chopped off.

"Oh! Youve recovered already? ! I may sound rude but I'm quite suprised from your presence here!"

"Im not fully healed yet but i can walk around..I left the Healer dorms to take a stroll outside for a few minutes..I didn't expect either to meet you here"he said.

"Oh.."

" Im glad i did find you "

"Well you're lucky.. We're supposed to leave tomorrow"

"Tomorrow? Oh.."

"Yes..We have yo go back to the north.."

"Then i guess i have no time "he said and kneeled.

"W-wait! You have not recover yet! You said it yourself! I dont think its good for your health move around like this!" I started stuttering.

He was a weird elf for real .The way he spoke ,the way his eyes shine. It was like a shadow was over him. And his hair was really weird. It wasn't the silver hair Teleri have like Thingol it was white like the snow. i didn't knew elves can have this kind of hair colour.

Maybe it was because Morgoths shadow had not left him yet. Maedhros had hard time to get over it too.

He acted like he didn't hear me , took my hand and kissed it.

"Im really greatful for saving me"

"Oh..its..not ..i really didn't fo anything than calling for help..you have to thank the healers for talking care of you!"

"Yes but you were the one who gave a helping hand first.. Shouldn't I thank my savior?"

"Well it was just a coincidence everyone else in my place would help you!"

"Im sure it wasn't coincidence but destiny!" He said as he stood up

"Destiny is taking strange turns sometimes dont you think?!" He added with a smirk.

"Can i ask you something?"

"Of course"

"You're a Teleri right? Do other elves have this unique hair colour as you do?"I asked.

"Oh this.." he muttered while touching a strand of his long hair.

"It was brown back then..."he said looking me straight in the eyes.

His gaze was sad and deep.

"Oh..before.. I'm sorry I brought that up.. I thought it was natural colour..." I tried to apologize

His hair must have turned white from the things he experienced while being out there.

In the book another elf had similar fate a Noldo who accidentally met Turin.

"It's okay its not your fault"

I mechanically pulled a strand of my hair behind my ear trying to think something to break the akward silence.

I had already asked him a serious topic i shouldn't have to.

"I'm..really glad you're doing fine..and I want to speak again with you..but i have no time left..You know i have to pack up my belongings.."

He looked me in the eyes again and smiled.

"I understand..We'll meet again one day my lady!"

He added.

"I hope too !"

"Be sure of it. We'll meet again" he repeated and waved at me as i was leaving.

Seregon was really strange. And i had the feeling that I would meet him again not far in the future.
