~Don't make me laugh! We dealt with him once, we can do it again. He's pathetic!~

Iellwen shook her head. ~No, my grandmother warned me of this. He is far from pathetic now.~

~Your grandmother was correct. It won't be as easy this time.~

~And just what makes him so dangerous? I am a ring bearer. I won't bow to a simple man.~

~He's not so simple anymore. Sauron has created his own ring.~

~Then we take it! I have two of the rings from the human kings.~

Iellwen tilted her head. "You think you can stop Sauron? I have seen him in my grandmother's mirror. Perhaps you should take a look. You wouldn't be so foolishly noble after that. But I will not step down or bow to him either."

~Who said anything about being noble? I never liked him. He had this way of... knowing... exactly where you were.~

"None of us will bow down to him. We must fight back and I must see your father.~

~Very well. You may pass.~ I say that loud enough for my archers to hear.

Iellwen watched the girl carefully. "I will take you to my father."

I studied Iellwen, ~Very well~

~I'm going as well. And I'll send runners to Galadriel and Elrond. This will involve both races.~

~Thank you. Let's go then shall we?~ I said jumping on my horse.

I whistle, and one of the army horses comes. ~I am Dravo.~ I incline my head, and mount. I tell the Elf archers to send the runners.
