"Make way for Theodén !" yelled Gamling as the king approached.
People moved away and I saw Eówin, looking sadly at us, trying to find one certain person.
" So few of you has returned. So few." she sighed and continued looking for Aragorn.
I looked at her, our eyes met and hers filled with tears.
" Did he..."
" He fell. " I said and she sobbed into my shoulder.
" But there is still hope. We can't stop hoping." I said and wiped a tear from her cheek.
She smiled at me weakly and walked away.
I followed her.

" We must take the children and women to the caves of Helm's deep. They will be safe there while men will fight." she said annoyed.
" You want to fight too, don't you ?"
" I am no lady of princesses in this land. I am the lady of warriors in this land. My sword is prepared to be used whenever they ask me to do so."
I didn't say anything I just placed a comforting hand on her shoulder.
" I want to fight !" she cried.
" You will." I said and walked away.

After a few steps I stopped.
My head started aching. I saw flashes of light and coulours pulsing strongly. Then I heard voices and everything stopped.
I saw my father telling Arwen that only death is waiting for her in this world.
Then the vision flew away. I saw Arwen looking at father sadly. She sat on her horse and followed the other elves. Father just stood on his balcony with a serious face.
Vision turned black.
I saw a man covered in blood lying on the ground, a horse was licking his face.

"Aragorn!" I cried in happiness but no one heard me.
" Ceven dhaer, anno vellas lín enin raw he." I started to heal him, my hand placed on his chest. I could feel him. But how ?
" Arwen's gone. My life has no meaning now." said Aragorn gasping for air.
" What about Gandalf? Frodo? What about Boromir ? You promised you will fight for your people. And Legolas ? I thought you are friends. And me. You have to come back. Im boe le, mellon. Le estel nìn" I said taking his bloody hand.

Then everything disappeared. I was again in the caves, surprisingly in Eowyn's arms.
" What happened ?" she asked looking at me worriedly.
" He is alive." I said and ran to the gate.
I saw two figures talking at the gate.
" Le abdollen. You look terrible." One of them was my love. Legolas. And the other...
" Aragorn !!!" I cried happily, running towards him.
" Harthenach" he smiled
" Harthenon" I nodded, looking into his tired green eyes."

" There are many of them in Isengard." said Aragorn when we came to Theoden.
" How many ?" asked Thedoen worriedly.
" At least ten thousand. It is an army bred only for one purpose."
Aragorn started and Theoden's eyes widened.
" Destroy the world of men. They will be here by nightfall."
" Let them come ! I want every strong man and boy to be prepared for battle till nightfall." said Theoden. Gamling nodded and walked away to the armoury. I followed him.

I was prepared ti wear some old, man's armour but what I absolutely didn't expect was to find  an elven armour. It was made from light copper,  painted with forest green and decorated with wonderful ornaments and shapes.

" Try this one." said Theoden smiling, gently placing a beautiful golden dagger decorated with ornaments and gems on my hand.

" It's beautiful." I gasped.
" And dangerous. It's the dagger of Helm after whom this place is named."
" I can not accept it."
" Please. Take it. I know it will be in right hands."
" My king... " I said and bowed.
" Theóden." he smiled and walked away.
I happily examined the dagger, putting it behind my belt.

I turned on my heel prepared to walk away but a voice stopped me.
" You can't fight." it said. I turned and saw Legolas starring at me strictly.
" Why ? " I asked sadly. " You think I'm weak ?" Disappoimtment filled my heart.
" No I..."
" I thought you love me. That you trust in me."
" I do but I..."
" What's wrong , meleth nín?"
" Nathìniel I can't loose you!" he cried.
I placed my hands on his waist and softly pressed my lips on his.
" You won't." I whispered and walked away, prepared for battle.

The noise of a loud horn interrupted us.
" That is no orc horn." said Legolas running to the gate.
" Open the gate !!!! " yelled soldiers and others opened it.
There stood elves. Thousand of them and in the front of everyone stood my friend. Haldir.
"  How is this possible ? " asked Theoden, clearly surprised.
" There was an alliance between elves and men once. We fought and died together. And now we came to honor the alliance. " said Haldir, then looked at me smiling brightly.

" It's lovely to see you." he said and hugged me strongly.
" I missed you." I whispered, tighting my grip.
" Sy telir !" yelled Aragorn.
" Tangado i chui !!!" shouted Haldir. The elves grabbed their bows and ran to the citadel.
" Nan barad! Gurth enin goth !!!" they screamed.
" We will stay together, right ?" asked Legolas sadly looking at me.
" Forever." I said and gave him one last kiss on his cheek.
" C'mon lads, I need some hug before I die too." teased Gimli.

" What's happening there ?" asked Gimli jumping.
" Shall I describe it to you, or would you like me to find you a box ?" teased Legolas.
Gimli grinned and continued jumping.
Suddenly I saw and arrow flying in the air. It stabbed into one of the orcs who let out a terryfying cry.
" So it beggins." said Theoden raising his sword.
" Tangado halad!" shouted Aragorn. I notched my arrow and aimed.
" Hado i phillin !!!" he cried and thousands of arrows immediately flew in the air. Mine hitted a head of one of the orcs.
