[ Okay, this takes place in--obviously-- the Sea of Rhûn. In case none of you know exactly where that is, it's about four-hundred miles South-east of Mirkwood, being about one-hundred-fifty miles in diameter. To the South there is a few mountains, and clustered around the North-east side of the sea there is a large forest. 'K, well. There you have it. I don't exactly have a plan for this rp, nor do I know the true history of Rhûn; so I thought we could just have fun and be random with it.  All are welcome to join, so there's no need in asking. Just post your bio if you'd like and post away! Also..if by chance you decide to join later on in this rp ( that being if anyone decides to join at all and we make progress, ) please read the whole rp before jumping in and acting like a fool. Also, I'd appreciate it if you took a look at my character Alassea's bio --> www.arwen-undomiel.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2519 ]
Alassea's pitch black hair drifted slowly upwards with the small gusts of wind, wrapping around her neck at times, then blowing in another direction. The sun was just beginning to rise over the open water, sending a pale yellow hue over the indigo waters. The sea seemed stagnant, with hardly any waves or current. The wind was calm and peaceful, it would seem to any luxury passenger the perfect weather. To a sailor it was awful. This meant it would take even longer for her to get there.
Alassea stood alone at the front of the small sailing ship. It was more of a boat than anything..but it served it's purposes well, and deserved even the scant respect of any elite captain. It was a black ship, with red sails. The only gift she had ever received from her father.
She sighed, looking down at her compass; then, snapping it shut, she cursed under her breath, tossing the small wooden object behind her.
" ..Brilliant."
[ By the way, I can't reply to anything tonight, but I'll be on later tomorrow afternoon--possibly sooner. ( That's pacific time.) ]

"How many are there?" thought Gandalf the yellow,brother of Gandalf the White.He had been trying to sail across the Sea Rhun in a boat when he was attacked by pirates.  "Time to finish these,"Gandalf thought.He lifted his staff in the air, charged a blast, and let it fly.  went both ships.

Alrighty, Annwyn. I think I'll try this out. Lol, hopefully I don't ruin this for you. Mmmk. Here is my character:
Full name: Lairiel Táralóm
Eye color: Dark blue
Hair: Straight and black. It goes down to her lower back.
Height: 5'8"
I'll update the history later, because I have to go now. I'll talk to you later. Ciao.

Enyalie sighed softly, drumming her fingers on a wooden chair she was crouched beside. This ship was rather small to begin with, and the belowdecks certainly weren't helping that image. Cramped and tired (the weather wasn't very good at all for sailing, and thus sleeping), she had been on this infernal boat for two days.
Another sigh. Sailing certainly wasn't much fun if the captain didn't know --Not that Enyalie would have wanted her to know-- a passenger was on the ship. She longed to feel the wind in her hair again, rain on her face.
Smiling to herself, she thought of the glory days spent in Rivendell...and then her face fell.
Won't Alassea be glad to see me...

Muttering incoherent profanities and curses under her breath, she skipped down the stairs and kicked a whicker-basket aside.
" 'What took you so long, Alassea? Why couldn't you get here on time like planned, sister dear? Hmm? Eh? What was it now?' I'll bloody tell you wot it was--"
She continued talking to herself for some time, though the rest was mumbled and sort of thrown together with an annoyed growl. She did not even notice the stowaway in the opposite corner of the small room, for she was too busy rummaging through boxes.
" Bloody he--llo there, ale." She smirked, snatching the bottle and running back on deck.

Enyalie froze just as soon as she heard movement on the deck, as the captain had been quite silent during these last couple days. Alassea had made her way down belowdecks, but apparently rather blind. Or very thirsty...Enyalie very nearly burst out laughing. However, once Alassea had made her way back above, she found that she too was thirsty. With a final glance at the stairway, she crawled over to the box and pulled out a canteen of water, deciding that ale was not what she needed. Sipping gratefully, she pulled herself back to the little corner.

Lairiel leaned her left shoulder against the cold wall, waiting impatiently for Alassea to arrive. What's taking so long? She wondered, glancing up at the Sea. Nothing. The thick fog that blanketed the water didn't ease her anxiety.
"It's probably just the weather..." She mused softly.
She shook her head, trying to think of something else. Worry twisted knots in the pit of her stomach. I shouldn't worry. She'll get here soon. She brushed the strands of black hair back and out of her eyes. Taking a deep breath, she straightened and walked briskly out of the room, leaving the Sea of Rhûn and all doubts behind her.

Alassea had just uncorked the bottle, arching a brow as the cork itself accidently flew overboard, and landed in the water, bobbing like a small speck of color, slowly fading. It was a hint of comic relief in her lonesome travel, and it flared a grin.
Shaking her head, she took a swig from the bottle, gazing foreward. Sighing, she took another, but just as she did so she nearly choked, for a soft patter reached her ears from below deck.
Piveting on her heel she slowly edged towards the descending wooden stairs, ears pricked. She could not see anything, however the sun only illuminated a block of light, which happened to rest only on the stairs. Bottle in one hand, sword drawn in the other, she took one step down, and skipped the rest, landing with a thud on the bottom floor.
Her eyes were narrowed--or squinting more like, as she struggled to see in the dark. Her sword was raised chest-high, and pin-pointed into the darkness.

Cursing her stupidity, Enyalie sat still as she could, but she knew that Alassea would soon see her, if she hadn't already. Deciding better for sooner than later, she stood up, stepping from the shadows into the light..
She tilted her head and smiled slightly before saying softly, "Hello, Alassea.."

Her face seemed to be drained of all color, as her eyes fixed widely on Enyalie. She sheathed her sword slowly, not taking her gaze off of her.
" What on earth are you doing here, Enyalie?" Her voice was low, but her expression seemed transfixed, as if she was staring into the eyes of a ghost; the shock seeming to blanket the anger that would soon surface.

Deawen turned back to the waters it seemed to be an endless blue world ahead and to the sides. but a new form appeared in the distance. Deawen peered at it for a long time it came closer and closer till she reliezed it was a boat.

Enyalie bit her lip. "Well...There was a good reason. That is to say I had one." She shrugged, and continued, "I'm afraid I may have dropped it in the sea somewhere along the way."
Realizing that Alassea was not going to see the humor on this side of the story, Enyalie sobered and sighed heavily. "Look. I didn't. have anywhere else to go..."

Her voice raised slightly as she spoke, " No? So you decided to risk everything, including your life and follow me? That's using the brain, dear."
She fell silent, sighing. Realizing she still held the bottle of ale in her other hand, she quickly chugged a few gulps, and shook her head, as if she was loosing her mind.
" You must be hungry. ..And thirsty I warrant." She was looking down at Enyalie's canteen. " Well come on, better get some fresh air for you." And with that she trudged back up the stairs, leaning against the mast.
