He sat behind the falls, just looking up at the sky. The entire falls took on a differnt color, and even feel. Fog surrounded it, and it was a liht blueish color that made it beautiful to the eye of the beholder. Within his grasp he held a vial. Why he held it, he didnt know, but all he could do was think. It had been a close call at the city, and seeing Cirdan hurt angered him. The boy was practically like a younger brother, if not son, to him. And then the other news that hit him shortly after that. He had sensed the life of many Elves the night they had been killed. But when Ireth made her official announcement to the village of the Elves who had passed on, and of their funerals (which shehad been organizing with the best honors for the past few days) he felt sadness. He knew a good number of them, and they were all good people, they did not deserve such a fate. He gave slight sigh, and extended his hand to touch the water and smiled. The water slipped through his fingers and for an instant he forgot his worries.

She moved along a strange path, following the aura of Arioch. It had been a few days since he had been seen and she was beginning to worry. She was beginning to beleive the story that IYarizel had told her, and it it was true she wanted to make sure her father was alright. She had been close to Ceresa so her death had effected her, not because she was suppose to be her mother but because her and Ceresa had been friends. As she moved along she felt a deep sadness with in this part of the forest. She heard a Waterfall up the path and made her way towards it, hoping to jsut relax a bit mroe before she continued her search.

He let his fingers stay in the falls for a few minutes. His smile fading as they pulled away. He shut his eyes, as his ears could hear the songs of their people. They were singing the songs of lament, and to a long trip to the Valar through the heavens. Though it was a sad time for the people of Anduune their voices were still as beautiful as ever, and he found himself singing the words to the song, with passion and vigor. His voice growing louder with every note he sung.

The sadness grew as she moved deeper into the forest. She thought she could hear the voices of many singing. As she drew closer to the waterfall a solitary voice stood out. She moved closer and smiled when she saw Eärnursëáto by the Falls. IT was his voice she was hearing and it was quite soothing. She could not only hear but feel the sadness in his song, and it seemed to mingle with her own. She took a seat on a rock not to far awya and listened to him, not wanting to disturb him or his song.

The song lasted for almost ten minutes. When he had finished he bowed his head in respects. They would be singing another song soon, but the one that always affected him was the songs that dealt with lament. Thoughts of his wife and son always ran through his head. He shook his head trying to will it away." He looked down from the ledge he sat at and jumped down, not even making a sound. He moved from the otherside of the falls only to see Farinele there. He was quite surprised, but of course, his sister had removed the barrier so other creatures coul venture forth now. "Elen síla lumenn' omentielvo."

She listened, thinking that the song suit the mood of the woods. She closed her eyes during the song, then opened them when the song ended. She saw him move, and was marveled by his grace. He moved unheard and it fascinated her more. She stood and smiled slightly, she did not understand what he had said, but she felt it was a greeting. She bowed slightly, thinking it was all that seemed fit to do in his presence. "Hello, Eärnursëáto. I'm sorry if I intruded upon your solitude, but that song was so, beautiful."

He watched her and groaned inwardly, he hated when people bowed to him. He came towards her. "No need to bow, M'lady." He looked around, glad that the waterfalls were almost deserted. "Nay, you did not intrude upon my solitude. I was to leave when the song ended." He smiled slightly. "Beautiful, yes. To give honors to those who have left us."

She looked at him appologetically, "I only bowed because i feel it is what I felt was right." She studied him a moment then bowed her head in sadness, "People seem to be dying alot lately. IT is a terrible thing when a life is lost."

"For future meetings I ask that you refrain from doing that. I feel uncomfortable." He laughed briefly and nodded. "Aye, it is, but it is far crueler when someone took their lives without rhyme or reason." He looked up at what shimmered in the sky. "Especially when the person who takes their lives is a creature who was but a guest in our lands. Yet, people wonder why my kind stay to themselves."

She looked at him curiousley, "If we meet in the future I will remember that." She thought for a moment then something entered her mind, "I am sorry to hear about the lives lost umong your people. Nothing saddens me more then untimely deaths. But do you know who the culprit is that took the lives of your people?"

"I appreciate it, M'Lady." He smiled warmly at her. "Not quite sure, but I suspect the creature is within the palace." His expression changed for an instant, from the calm and collected man to one of anger. "I sensed him very briefly, and I suspect it is a Fallen."

She looked at him and stepped back slightly when his expression changed. Then his words hit her and she shook her head, she knew the moment that Ceresa had died he would not take it well. She could even sense that his Aura had darkened immensely and she did not like it one bit. She looked up at him sadly, "Arioch Marvolo...That is his name..."

His eyes widened with her words. "You know him?" His gaze was much harsher than it had been a few moments ago. He clenched his teeth, wondering if his sister had any idea of this creature, because though he would not speak it to any, he had sensed the Fallen in her room.

She stepped back again, afraid of what she saw in his eyes. She nodded she had never been afraid of anyone in her life, and now she could feel herself cowering in front of him. "Yes, I know him. An old friend, once one of the most respected Angels. I fear I know what has caused him to become such a sinister being as well..." She looked down, unable to look at him, "He has just recently lost someone dear to him. Someone who he has held a forbidden love for, for many a milenia. They fell together...."

"And that is fair enough excuse for taking the lives of my people. And I can be certain of others as well." His eyes glazed over with anger. "That is no reason, or excuse. My people have lost those they love many MANY millenia ago and they do not go off killing innocent bystanders. I lost my wife and my son in childbirth more than 12,000 years ago, and I did not go off killing others." He looked to her, then turned his back to her. "Curse you, Ireth. Curse you for bringing that beast within the walls of the palace." He was obviously furious. "If she will not take care of him, then I shall." His eyes turned a quick black color and he walked from her.
