Elanor had confided in Beinion about Tauriel and Legolas' feelings for each other.Beinion couldn't help but feel a little jealous of Legolas.Tauriel was gorgeous.But Beinion had liked her as a friend,he was happy for his friends.He did not want to be the villain in their story.As Elanor told him all this,Beinion listened very closely.Elanor needed help.The only hindrance in their path was King Thranduil.They would have to change his opinion about Legolas and Tauriel being together.

A guard called Elanor,and she went to him.The guard told her that the king wanted to see her and Arwen.Going with Arwen to the throne room,Elanor had just one question on her mind. What could it be about?

"Enter",Thranduil said from inside
"Lord Thranduil,"the sisters said in turn and bowed to the king
Arwen couldn't help but notice the grave expression on Thranduil's face.
"My lord,something troubles you deeply,"Arwen said.
Thranduil nodded,"Yes,Arwen,it is a message from your grandfather in Lorien",he held up a scroll of parchment.Elanor took it and read it,her face colour turned pale instantly and her hands started trembling.Arwen rushed to her sister's side and read the message.
"No!",she yelled and clasped a hand over her mouth and fell on her knees crying.

The letter was from Celeborn,it said that their mother had been captured by orcs and taken to th Misty Mountains where she had been tortured badly,Elladan and Elrohir had succeeded in bringing her back to Lorien but she was hurt so bad,she had not regained consiousness at all.Their father Elrond was already in Imladris tending to her,but she was passing.They were to come instantly.

"We have to go!",Elanor said to Thranduil.Thranduil nodded
"A carriage is already been made ready for you.If you want Legolas will accompany you."Thranduil said.
"Tauriel,too please".Elanor said much to the king's surprise but he did not decline.

Elanor and Arwen rushed to the carriage and got in.Legolas was there and so was Tauriel,fear showed on her face and Elanor felt more sorry for her.

Reaching Lorien,Elanor was the fastest rushing up the stairs to Galadriel's chambers.
"MOTHER!",Elanor said with tears rushing down her face.
Celebrian was not moving.Elrond's face was pale and Elladan and Elrohir were standing in one corner of the room,quiet as ever.Arwen,Legolas and Tauriel came in a few seconds later.

Arwen collapsed beside her mother's bedside and cried her heart out.Elrond tried to comfort her and Elanor had no words to say anything.
Admist all of this,Tauriel and Legolas stood in the doorway of the room.Tauriel was worried about the lady Celebrian,she was so pale and there were so many wounds all over her body.

At long last,Celebrian's eyes opened weakly.
Elrond was on his knees instantly,"Celebrian?"
"Elrond..."Celebrian managed weakly,talking hurt her.
"shh..."Elrond put a finger on her lips
Celebrian looked around at her children and smiled weakly,her eyes fluttered back to Elrond and she fondly carressed his face. "So serious..."she said and her hand fell beside her body.Elanor let out a piercing yell and Arwen seemed as if she would faint.Elrond held Celebrian's hand,tears running down his face.He brought his face close to his wife's and kissed her tender lips,the chill of death had invaded them. 

Tauriel clasped her hand over her mouth.She remembered the day her mother had died,she  was so worried about Elanor and Arwen.

From behind,Aragorn rushed up with Haldir behind him and Lady Galdriel and Lord Celeborn were there behind them.Giving them way,Legolas moved Tauriel to a more 'out-of-the-way' position.
Elanor turned and seeing Haldir in the doorway,she ran to him and collapsed in his arms.
Legolas rushed to Haldir,Elanor was unconsious.

"Lord Elrond",he said
Elladan and Elrohir hurried to them and Elrond took her gently into his his own lap and layed her on the couch.Elronds face was grave.
"She loved her mother,more than any of our children",Elrond said.

Haldir sat beside Elanor,clasping her hand,whispering her name
"Wake up,wake up.",he said to her.
Tauriel sprinkled some water drops on her face,which worked in helping her open her eyes.
She smiled to see Haldir and her eyes went to Legolas and Tauriel standing beside the door.She signalled them to come to her.They moved towards her.and she whispered in a voice only for them to hear,
"You two will have to manage by yourself from this point."
She then looked at Haldir and said,"My heart is broken.Had I lived to marry someone,it would have been you."Tears ran down her face and Haldir wiped them,
"No!"he said but too late.Legolas had seen the light fade from Elanor's eyes.

She had died of grief on her mother's death.what happened in the room after that was chaos and no one liked to remember it afterwards.
Tauriel had hidden her face in Legolas' chest crying.Elladan and Elrohir had to run to support their father who had lost his balance and Arwen had rushed into her grandmother's arms,crying loudly with Celeborn comforting the two,though his own face was by then covered with tears.Admist all of that,Haldir still sat clasping Elanor's hand,tears streaming uncontrollably down his face.
