**The Fellowship**


Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,

One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.


**Servants of the Dark Lord Sauron**

It's a quiet thing, to fall. But it is far more terrible to admit it.

The longsword shimmered in the hazy glow of the morning sun as Gitsy pulled it out of it's sheath. She held the cold metal against her cheek, comforted by it's presence. Effortlessly, she swung it in a high arc above her head, then back down seamlessly through the air, turning on her foot and swinging it once more. A smile graced her lips as she continued like this for half an hour, feeling the surge of passion through her veins.

on one of his frequent trips to rivendell, simon wandered through and spotted someone new, someone who he has never laid eyes on before. he snuck behind her and waited for her to turn with her blade, he took out his own and when she turned he stoppped her sword form coming down. "you have a talent with this blade" he started, "oh, forgive me, my name is simon, simon curran" he bowed to her respect fully, "and i might i ask whom you might be?"

Gitsy hesitated for a moment, but flashed him a quick smile before lowering her sword to her side. Her eyes surveyed him closely, for it was rare for a mortal to enter Rivendell, and more rare for one to approach her and talk to her. He seemed farely young to her keen eyes, but she bowed back all the same.
"Gitsy Silvertongue," came her graceful reply, and as she straightened up, she watched him curiously.
"If I may ask, are you a mortal? It's just that it is rare for one to enter an Elvish kindgdom, apart from Estel." She smiled gently, "And for one to gain permission from Lord Elrond must be thought highly of indeed."

"that i am, i know it is rare ofr a mortal to enter here, but lord elrond has heard of me and my skill, i think i am allowed here because of my parentgage, my mother was an elf, though i do not know her name, my father was a human of course, i inhereted her elven eyes and skill with a bow, but my father gave me the gift of mortality, elves live fora very long time and i didnt want that, i will go when it is my time to go." he smirked at her "no offence but you look extremly young for an elf"

Gitsy smiled wryly, eyes glinting.
"And you are extremly charming for a half-elf. Not many of your kind is left, the only other half-elves I know is Estel, so I must say you are unique." She chuckled, "Depending on whether or not that is a good thing is argumentative."

"well" he said as he removed his hood "i think it is, being half and half allows you to have two minds when thinking of something, kinda like two opinions" he smiled and winked at her. "so you been here long?, i havent seen you here before"

"I travel alot." Gitsy replied hesitantly, "I arrived just a few days ago."
She smiled breifly, "I haven't seen you either. You come here often?"

Gitsy thought for a moment, then smiled gracefully and sheathed her sword, the silver hilt shining lazily in the sun.
"A number of places, Minis Tirith, Edoras, Lothlorien. All beautiful." Sighing, she leant back against the wall, closing her eyes. "But none were once as they were decades ago. I truely fear for the future."

Gitsy couldn't help but blush, an almost shy smile on her lips.
"Umm, no I'm not. Maybe it's because of the Elvish blood..." She chewed her lip, the blush dissappearing slightly, but hints of it still remained.

She blushed and smiled, staring out at the gardens. Sure, the man was charming, but she was of elf-kin, him a mortal.
"Simon," She sighed heavily, "You know the differences between our races, I shall live forever, but you shall die."
Gitsi paused,
"Have you ever heard of Beren and Luthien?
The leaves were long, the grass was green,
The hemlock-umbels tall and fair,
And in the glade a light was seen
Of stars in shadow shimmering.
Tinúviel was dancing there
To music of a pipe unseen,
And light of stars was in her hair,
And in her raiment glimmering.

There Beren came from mountains cold,
And lost he wandered under leaves,
And where the Elven-river rolled
He walked alone and sorrowing.
He peered between the hemlock-leaves
And saw in wonder flowers of gold
Upon her mantle and her sleeves,
And her hair like shadow following.

Enchantment healed his weary feet
That over hills were doomed to roam;
And forth he hastened, strong and fleet,
And grasped at moonbeams glistening.
Through woven woods in Elvenhome
She lightly fled on dancing feet,
And left him lonely still to roam
In the silent forest listening.

He heard there oft the flying sound
Of feet as light as linden-leaves,
Or music welling underground,
In hidden hollows quavering.
Now withered lay the hemlock-sheaves,
And one by one with sighing sound
Whispering fell the beachen leaves
In the wintry woodland wavering.

He sought her ever, wandering far
Where leaves of years were thickly strewn,
By light of moon and ray of star
In frosty heavens shivering.
Her mantle glinted in the moon,
As on a hill-top high and far
She danced, and at her feet was strewn
A mist of silver quivering.

When winter passed, she came again,
And her song released the sudden spring,
Like rising lark, and falling rain,
And melting water bubbling.
He saw the elven-flowers spring
About her feet, and healed again
He longed by her to dance and sing
Upon the grass untroubling.

Again she fled, but swift he came.
Tinúviel! Tinúviel!
He called her by her elvish name;
And there she halted listening.
One moment stood she, and a spell
His voice laid on her: Beren came,
And doom fell on Tinúviel
That in his arms lay glistening.

As Beren looked into her eyes
Within the shadows of her hair,
The trembling starlight of the skies
He saw there mirrored shimmering.
Tinúviel the elven-fair,
Immortal maiden elven-wise,
About him cast her shadowy hair
And arms like silver glimmering.

Long was the way that fate them bore,
O'er stony mountains cold and grey,
Through halls of ireon and darkling door,
And woods of nightshade morrowless.
The Sundering Seas between them lay,
And yet at last they met once more,
And long ago they passed away
In the forest singing sorrowless."
She softly sang.
