Arwen took the blanket that he handed her. "Thank you. Your plan sounds good." She threw the blanket about her and went back to kindling the fire. She frowned. "I have been building up fires for decades and decades and yet, on a freezing night, when we need it most, I cannot kindle a spark." She sighed and shook her head.

Turwaithion smiled and rearranges the kindling so that it was psaced farther in a cone shape, he set a clump of moss on the frame, and set flint to tinder. The entire structure flickered to life "Your kindling didn't have enough air, that's all." he said

Arwen sat back from the flickering flames. She smiled. "Nicely done," she commented.

"Thank you" he said, leaning against a tree "So you've lived away from Thingol's court your whole life?"

Arwen nodded. "Yes. Court life didn't suit me. I'm an elf of the forest, my life is in all that is good and green. I grew up there." She smiled, thinking of it. "When I was old enough, I knew it was my job, my duty, to protect the forest I loved, as well as the rhealm beyond."

"I had similiar priorities, when I was your age. I wanted to defend this realm with my life. But, as I matured, I realized that I could fight until I was bearded, but if Morgoth was not defeated, the orcs would always be there. So, I started going abroad, fighting orcs where fighters were needed. I even fought for the Sons of Feanor, about half a decade ago. Then, plans were laid for this comapny by Maedhros and Fingolfin. I was there when the ideal was finalized, and made leader of the mission. Trust me, your quest to defend these lands will broaden, as will mine. We are to see Nargothrond, East Beleriand. You will be in unfamiliar with the terrain, fighting style, and tactics. Even our allies may be our greatest foes. If we succeed, after Thingol's rule, return to Doriath. You will be sorely needed. Take this" he said, handing over a horn "We will hear it. We will come. This fellowship will not end after it's purpose it completed, I promise you." he said, gazing into the flames

Arwen recieved the horn, examining it's delicate carvings, and smiled up at Turwaithion. "Thank you," she said, bowing her head. "I am only a simple being, Turwaithion. I have not fought in many great wars, I have not dwelt beside kings and queens in great halls." She shook her head. "I'm a forest guard," she added, "and I know I can't save Middle Earth. I only want to help."

"That's just it, Arwen. The efforts of one cannot save this place. But together, we can make a stand, and show Morgoth what we are capable of."

he picked up a twig, and snapped it, than he picked up several, and found he was unable to break them "That proves my point. Divided we fall, together we stand. One helps another, until we all stand together. Your help, Arwen, is all that is needed" he said, purring a reassuring hand on her shoulder

Arwen nodded, silent. She looked into the flames of the fire and placed the horn Turwaithion had given her down beside her on the earth. She looked tired, but determined as always.

( Whoa guys you post alot! I still have school to worry about and please don't godmod my charry please!)
Deawen went with Arwen to collect firewood, it was uneventful much to her dismay. Her shoulder relentlessly stung and ached. She took up the watch in the nearest tree outside the ring of firelight. Deawen was young but was no fool, inside the firelight she was blind to the world outside though enemies can see you inside the light. She sat in the tree one leg dangling and swinging softly to a unheard tempo. After awhile of conversation below her Deawen allowed her thoughts to drift and wander. She was day dreaming about her childhood when something moved in the forest. It sounded close by and large about deer size. Deawen became alert and stock still.

Deawen listened for something that might betray what was nearby but nothing came close and nothing moved. Deawen relaxed slightly and readjusted her daggers.

Turwaithion strung his bow and fitted an arrow to the string "What is it?" he asked

Anira remained silent through the conversation, silently agreeing with the soundness of the plan. All the while she remained vigilant of their surroundings, listening for the slightest crackle of leaves under foot.

AWESOME set by the AMAZING Lembas!!!

Turwaithion's ears pricked at the growl, and he felt the werewolf tackle him and slash his face before he saw the creature. His sword was knocked from his grip, and he was hard pressed to keep the creature's snapping jaws from his face
