*****Rivendell*****
After the others had left, Meneciriel still sat at the table, running fingers over the map of Middle Earth. It seemed like only a few inches from Rivendell to the White City, but she knew that it would be a very, very long time before she would return.
Also, she worried about what would happen to her home while she was gone. Elrond grew every day less and less interested in taking care of his house, and Meneciriel and her husband Erestor had been doing much. But, even though in her heart she knew everything would be fine, her fears did not abate.
Pushing worry aside, she began to work on an inventory list for the journey. After all, there will be much that we will need.she thought to herself.
