Laeriel shivered as the sun began to set, the temperature was dropping slowly. Her clothing came to her mind once again. The nearly sheer fabric of her dress was not sutible inside cold, stone walls. She looked around at her surroundings. She had been lost in the castle for almost and hour and a half and she was beginning to get very tired and hungry. She felt her stomach grumble, and her limbs ached as she walked. People were staring at her in a queer way and she had no idea where she was going; all in all, she was having a bad day. Still, though, her heart pounded with excitement everytime she saw something new. About twenty minutes before, she had seen her first human child. He couldn't have been more than five, with big soft brown eyes and black hair. She smiled at him, and his mother gave her a dirty look. She tried very hard not to let it bother her though, the mother had no idea who, or what Laeriel was, after all.
So, Laeriel walked on, tying to remeber where she was earlirer that day. She was too timid to ask anyone for directions, simply because they seemed to want nothing to do with her. She was about to give up when she recognized a tapastry on the wall. She must be going in the right direction. As she walked, she thought of home. Of her father, and her sister and brothers. She missed them so terribly. Right about now, they would be eating evening meal together. The would sit on a table low to the floor with many pillows around it. Her father, Cellius at the head of the table, her brother's, Derrion and Arracus at her father's right and left hand, and her sister Sahrien on the left, next to Arracus. They would probably have a place set for Laeriel, next to Derrion. Oh, how she missed her family. She hoped she would see them again soon.
Laeriel rounded a corner and found herself almost face to face with Legolas. He was standing outside the door to Elessar's room, he did not seem very happy. She timidly walked towards him, this was quite obviously not he time to bother him, but she needed a place to stay. Laeriel took a deep breath, "Master Legolas," she said in a meek voice. He turned to look at her, she saw no hint of emotion in his face. She swallowed, "I was wondering, well, I-" he looked at her expectantly, "I was wondering where am I to stay for the night?" she said.
