Luénna - The Daughter of Sauron in English

Chapter 11

"So here you are!" I heard Gandalf's voice and quickly broke me out of Legolas embrace. "Pippin told me what he saw." What if it came out who I was? I had just been happy for a short time and could finally forget all the worries and problems in Legola's arms, but what did I do when Pippin had seen something that betrayed me. "He saw the white tree of Gondor burning, but he saw something else that worries me more. He saw an Elbin and he thinks you're this Elbin Luénna. Can you explain that to me?" I was looking for a credible excuse. Now it mattered what I would answer, maybe even my life depended on it. What would they do to me if they found out that I was Sauron's daughter. I felt Legolas questioning look on me. 'I can't explain why Pippin saw me. What do I have to do with Sauron?" I played the clueless. Gandalf looked at me critically, but Legolas seemed to believe me. After all, that was a start. "We'll find out why he saw you. Don't worry, it won't be a bad thing," Legolas promised me. I just nodded, but hoped he would never find out. If he knew the truth, he would probably hate me. Gandalf looked at me again suspiciously, but then went to the others. Me and Legolas followed him with some distance. When we arrived at the others, I received curious but also suspicious glances. Gandalf just lifted Pippin to himself on Schattenfell's back. I wondered why he left us. "Run shadow fur and show us what haste means!" Gandalf spurred on his horse. I looked after them as they got smaller and smaller in the distance. I knew I was on thin ice, but I couldn't just cut off. I finally followed the others back into the great hall. Eowyn looked at me suspiciously, almost angry and the others were silent. Theoden began to make plans with his captains and I listened attentively. It had become a habit, because I didn't really want it, but on the other hand I had to help my father. I had already caused enough devastation in his ranks but I also had to watch that I would not be caught. I sat down on a bench standing at a table and put my head on my arms lying on the table. Several hours passed and nothing happened. By now I had given up listening, as they repeatedly rejected plans and created new ones. In addition, my eyes became heavy and after another few hours I fell asleep.

The next morning I was awakened by the loud cries of the Rohirrim. I quickly got up to see what was going on. Surprisingly, the beacons burned, which meant that Gondor called for help.

After a few hours, everyone was sitting ready for their horses. As always, I was sitting behind Legolas, slowly I started to get used to it. While riding, I kept thinking about my father and that Pippin had seen me in the Palantir. After a felt eternity, the horses of the Rohirrim finally slowed down. Everyone got down, but somehow I didn't come down from this horse. "Should I help you?" Legolas asked me with a smile on my face. I hesitated, but it was the only option, so I nodded. He carefully covered my hips and me off the horse. I turned red, but was also kind of grateful. "Thank you," I said, and quickly went back to the others. The Rohingya had already begun to set up the tents for the night. It began to dawn and gradually more and more raw irrime disappeared into the tents. We would probably stay here a little longer to wait for more riders. So I wasn't hoping to get on a horse anymore. When Aragorn and Legolas lay down to sleep, I did the same to them. I quickly fell into a deep sleep and was awakened the next morning by Gimlis and Legola's voices. "Where do you want to go?" I asked them, as they were ready to leave with all their belongings at the entrance of the tent. "Aragorn is gone and we will follow him," Legolas told me. "Wait, I'll come with me," I clarified and jumped up. I quickly grabbed my weapons and went to see them. "It's out of the question, it could be dangerous," Legolas told me. "I'm coming along and we should hurry up!" I clarified, running past the two of them outside. Gimli and Legolas followed me, and we saw Aragorn standing with his horse standing in front of an entrance into a ravine.
