Subject: Lómódë Author: Faeirex [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 22:12:17 03/27/02 Wed When the bow was lowered, Faeirex relaxed slightly. Instead, the elf wrapped his hand firmly round her wrist. She felt a flutter of amusement, now that there was no arrow to cope with, there was no way he could stop her if she chose to leave. She was confident that her battle skills would be sufficient to overcome him if necessary. Unfortunately, that wasn't really an option. Now that he had seen her, running would only result in more people being sent after her. Killing him might work, but if he went missing a search would almost certainly be mounted, with the same results. Subterfuge appeared to be the only choice. He wanted to know her name. A name, a name... "Lómódë," she lied quickly. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Lómódë Author: Legolas [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 22:24:07 03/28/02 Thu Lómódë. Summoning up memories of high elvish learnt in his long ago youth, Legolas translated the name. Faithful one. Her name was perhaps significant, perhaps not. The time for speculation could come later. "What are you doing here?"

She hesitated, then realised that hesitating simply made her look more suspicious. A lie would not work this time. There was no time to make up something that sounded plausible. "I'm sorry, but I can't tell you. I made an oath, please don't ask me to break it. I can't go against my word." There. She hadn't actually said what the promise was, or who she had made it to. Knowing perfectly well that it wasn't actually the case, she tried to reassure herself that it wasn't really a lie.
