Forest of the Last 🧝Elves

[Noldor_returned]

Well, it has come down to the final three days, and we are almost definetly in, as I saw King Elessar today. He was visiting King Eomer, and I asked him. He seemed surprised to see an elf, but he agreed, and he will be coming. More information later.

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

It goes well, and I forsee that it shall go well for a while, but for how long may men and elves work in peace, will there be conflict between us? or shall we work in harmony? Men are now the dominant race in Middle Earth, will they accept following us Elves in these missions? The Dark Lord may be Vanquished but not all of his servants are. Orcs still roam at night in parts of the world, and there are dark creatures, that are there that Sauron did not have a part in. We must be weary and prepare well.

 

[Majimaune]

well it is the day but i shall wait for as long as need be so that we can be well and trully ready for the search

Majimaune Leganimdok

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

We must prepare well, for the journey may become treacherous

 

[Noldor_returned]

I apologise for the lateness, but I have good reason. The Entmoot went well, but took all of yesterday, so I was forced to wait until today before announcing the news.
First of all, there will be three parties: One headed by Majimaune, who we must still decide where he is going; one by Erestor, who will lead an expedition into Mordor; the final party leadership will be shared by Fangorn, King Elessar and myself. With Majimaune's group shall go half an eored and he shall recieve a horse to ride on, as well as Quickbeam the Ent. With Erestor's group shall go many knights of Gondor, and they shall also recieve horses, although Erestor must come with me and King Telcontar to formally start, and the Ent Skinbark shall be travelling in that party. I shall be going with Elessar and Treebeard to the land of Harad and beyond. We shall be taking men of Gondor too. The reason the king himself is coming is that he wishes to discuss the peace agreements between Gondor/Rohan and the Haradrim.
Now it seems to me that there is still an area untouched. Majimaune, I ask you to search all lands on the other side of the Shire. If you are unsuccessful, can you try all lands to the Iron Hills and beyond. We leave tomorrow at daybreak.

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

when do we depart? and what is the plan for when our companies (mine and yours NR) separate and etc...

 

[Noldor_returned]

Well, Majimaune will leave whenever, and he will have to go by Meduseld and meet his Riders. As for you and me, we will leave at about 8:00 am tomorrow (Australian time) so we can reach Edoras in time to make a good start on the way to Gondor with King Elessar. Once we reach Gondor, we shall each go our separate ways. I will most likely have to stay a few days in order for him to sort out a few things, but you may not Erestor. Does this help?

 

[Majimaune]

i will search around the shire area and beyond for as far as possible
but just a question what shall we do if non of us find the entwives it shall be a sad place to live in this world knowing that there are no entwives whereas now we do not know wether there are any or not
will we search for the rest of our lives over the seas and onto other lands

Majimaune Leganimdok

 

[Noldor_returned]

Now is the time we must leave Erestor, and Fangorn said he would carry us to Edoras, making the journey a quicker one. Once we reach Edoras, the two Ents Fangorn and Skinbark will continue on their way to Gondor.*Climbs onto Treebeard and is carried off*

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

Then we depart, *climbs onto Skinbark, and begins to sing a song of a far off land as they depart*

 

[Majimaune]

i will leave at daybreak and go north west to the shire and start my search there as soon as i get there
I'll send a message to you as soon as possible

Majimaune Leganimdok

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

Be weary my friend, for even though you dwell among the elves, the laws of men still hold to you, and men are forbidden from entering the Shire.

 

[Noldor_returned]

Yes Majimaune. Go around the Shire, not through it.

 

[Majimaune]

i nver said i would go through it without leave althought that gave me an idea.
i will get back to you as soon as i put it in words

Majimaune Leganimdok

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

Watch out, those hobbits can be very hasty! After Saruman pulled his little stunt, they've been on the guard, even being weary to let Bree Hobbits in...

 

[Majimaune]

i had a meeting with the hobbits and they did not attack because meriadok and peregrin where there and they saw us and did not attack
we have started our search and i will report to you any findings of traces of entwives

Majimaune Leganimdok

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

well in the east, we have found nothing so far, but there are some traces of the entwives leaving the brown lands. there are tons of orc and troll tracks running around and there are tons of ashes and etc... we have found a few traces of large rooty looking tracks heading northeast from the brown lands, my company and I shall head in this direction and try to see if we can follow the tracks, though i doubt they will be able to be followed being as old as they are.

 

[Noldor_returned]

I have returned with Treebeard, and there was no sign of the Entwives. I have almost given up hope, except on Majimaune's part. Instead I have decided to hone my skills and track any orcs as a mercenary. There are still some bands of them, mainly in the Mountains.

 

[Majimaune]

nay i have found no tracks yet but there is still hope

tomorrow we go into the old forrest to look

 

[Erestor Arcamen]

We have found strange markings indeed, for they are not orc, are not elf(if elves leave tracks at all, which we dont), and are not of man. I believe they are of dwarf, and they are following the tracks of the entwives. we have followed these tracks for some days now, but they are growing fainter and fainter, as if there were less and less of them, and it seems they are running, not walking. Perhaps the dwarves were chasing the entwives. I have a theory, during the time the entwives disappeared, the dwarves had severed ties with the elves. Perhaps the dwarves chased and destroyed the entwives. The tracks head towards the iron hills, we will see what has happened.
