Northwood Inn

Ok. So if I wanted to run around into all the walls, I could?

((Yeah, sounds fun. Let's do it!))
Leawyn for some dumb reason, starts running around in circles and running into all the furniture and walls in the process.

Because he is going mental with teachers that can't teach their subject, NR decides to join Elvess, however gets too excited and knocks self unconcious. He is woken up.
"Whoops!" NR said. "That was a bad idea. Why don't we try to be mature?" *laughs* "Nah, that takes all the fun out of things. Actually, let's play pin the tail on the donkey, or sing something? What type of music do you like? Heavy metal, and most rock for me."

Dito with the music! I love rock, Christian rock. I would love to play pin the tail on the donkey, but instead lets play hit the warg in the side with an arrow!!!

 

[Noldor_returned]

Yeah, that's not bad some of it, that Christian rock stuff. And do we have a warg, or even a warg picture?

 

[Elvess_Leawyn]

I do! *pulls a picture of a warg out of traveling pack* I killed this guy last Tuesday. His name was Monty!

 

[Noldor_returned]

Speaking of Monty, do you know of Monty Python? If yes, do you like them? If yes again, I agree, because they are so cool and funny and hilarious. So good to quote as well. Ni! What is the air speed velocity of an unladen swallow? I'm invincible! *continues with his Python rant*

Heard of them, never seen them, but when you say invincible it makes me think on inconcevible, which makes me think of Vizzini, therefor makes me think of Princess Bride, which I just watched! And, NR, I'f you can't tell I like rambling!

 

[Noldor_returned]

Anyway, if you ever do see them, you'll learn a lot about me.
Anywho, not much is happening here, except the acts of craziness by us, so tell me about yourself, or something miraculous that you once saw/did/heard of. None come to mind for me right now, but I'm sure there's something. There must be.

 

[Elvess_Leawyn]

I though we were gonna play hit the warg in the side with an arrow!

 

[Noldor_returned]

Nah, that was just to get conversation going. But what do you do, apart from roam the land? I have my own haven for elves, and it will always be guarded. I think you'd like it there. It's called Forest of the Last Elves, and can be found somewhere from Erebor to Eldamar (http://thetolkien.forum/showthread.php?t=18221). It may also be soon found when you go for a stroll through the green hill country. But anywho, what else do you do?

 

[Elvess_Leawyn]

Being random, acting crazy, and reading!!! I'm reading the best book ever right now!

 

[Noldor_returned]

That is good. But I am interested in your travels. Tell me of your journeys across Middle-Earth. For I have never met you before, and would like to discuss your whereabouts for the last 100 or so years.
My name is Neorie Rougre, and I have been travelling most of the time, although I did stay in Lindor for several years. How about you?

I'm from Mirkwood, but I have been roaming about for a couple of months, seeing new places I have never seen before. My father died in battle many years ago and my mother died shortly after. I have a brother, Eligon, but he dissapeared a few years ago. There is not much left here for me, but I will not leave Middle Earth, it's too beautiful and it's my home, all of my memories are here. It's my duty to stay here. What about you?

 

[Noldor_returned]

I have been to Valinor and back. It is a beauty beyond thought, yet I prefer Middle-Earth. It seems more lifeful to me, if you know what I mean.

I do in a sence.

 

[Noldor_returned]

Yes, now I have a tale, which I just remembered of. It involves me and a wonderful female from ages past. If you buy me a drink, I will tell you some details, such as how I almost died for her.

 

[Elvess_Leawyn]

"A drink? Fine. Here take this money and buy yourself a drink." handing NR some money.

 

[Noldor_returned]

*Takes the money and walks across to the bar* I'll have a pint of your best ale, good sir. *Takes drink back to table*Takes a sip* Well, I did promise to tell you a story. Let's see...

I suppose you have heard of Gondolin? That was a mighty city, which Turgon built in those dark times. Yes, no-one knew where it was or how to get there, save for the Eagles and those who dwelt there. It was possibly the safest place, except for Aman, which was difficult to get to, and you could perish on the journey. There were seven gates that guarded the haven, made of wood, stone, iron, bronze, silver, gold and a final one which was the strongest of all. Long Morgoth Belchiot sought for the Hidden City, yet he never found it until he released Hurin and tricked him. While Gondolin stood, with Turgon its lord as High King of the Noldor, Morgoth could not rest, as he wished to destroy all Noldor, especially those who were mighty among us.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, I was not one of those, yet I am a Noldo, and I have seen much in my life. I fought in the guard of Turgon in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad, and that was a hard battle, in which we lost more than we gained. Many mighty Eldarin and Edain lords were slain in that battle, and Hurin was captured. He was eventually released, yet the Dark Lord kept a close eye on him. For Hurin son of Galdor had once dwelt in Gondolin, though he knew not the paths that would bring him hither. He did, however, guess which region it was in, and thus gave away part of our safety.

Yet it was not only the treachery of Hurin that helped Morgoth the Black. An elf named Maeglin, played a major part, which is sad because he was of close kin to Turgon himself. Maeglin, desiring Turgon's daughter Idril, wished to wed her and thus become Turgon's heir. This was not allowed because they were too close a blood-line. Then something happened to spoil Maeglin's plans.

Tuor, son of Huor, was sent by Ulmo lord of the Waters to warn Turgon. He arrived, and fell in love with Idril Celebrindal, who loved him in return. Maeglin despised Tuor, although Tuor rose high in the King's favour. At this time, they were wedded, and Idril began preparing a secret path out of the city. Maeglin gave way to his heart and sold out the location of Gondolin, believing the lies of Morgoth thinking he would have Idril as his prize.

Morgoth Belchiot attacked the Hidden City with Balrogs, Dragons and orcs. It was horrible, and had it not been for Idril's planning, none would have escaped. I was one of the lucky few that did, along with my wife Rewian. Amongst us was Tuor, Idril and myself, and we had a long distance to traverse before we were in the safety of our allies. Turgon was killed in the onslaught, which meant Idril and Tuor were our leaders.

We had mountains to cross, and that was the hardest part of the journey, in which my wife died. We came to Cirdan, who gave us refuge.

They were sad times, and I wished to cross over the sea to Valinor from whence I came, yet Cirdan asked me to remain, and I did. There are many other events which I have seen and wished I could forget, but cannot.

What did you think of it, young elf? Do you believe me?

 

[Elvess_Leawyn]

What did you think of it, young elf? Do you believe me?

"Such a sad tale you tell. This must have been a very hard time, I can only imagine. And why should I not trust you. You have done nothing to break my trust."

 

[Noldor_returned]

Thankyou. And what about you? Do you have any travels you wish to share? Any adventures you will discuss?
