What Once Was Lost {Hobbit Fanfic} Book 1

Yn Caillagh (The Witch)

"Physically, I am here.
Mentally, I am far,
far away."

Recap-

Five hours or so into the day, Luck was on our side as we came upon a grey dressed figure that looked very familiar. I slowed Lasair down. "Gandalf!"

"Well if it isn't Arietta Oakenshield. Where are your parents, my dear?"

... Silence.

"A dragon attacked Erebor a few weeks ago, Adad ordered Amad and I to leave, and she.. Died saving me."

"Gandalf?"

"Yes, my dear?"

"Are Orcs normally seen in those woods?" I asked, gesturing to them behind me.

"No... Arietta, no they're not. Why do you ask?"

"Because one attacked me while I was riding through."

"Hm..."

"And where are you headed off to?"

"Amad said to look for you, actually."

"Hm. How about this, I will escort you to Rivendell, and when you grow into your powers if you wish it I will teach you how to control them."

I looked at him, stunned. Gandalf was like a grandfather to me.

"You would really do that?"

He looked offended.

"Of course I would! And don't you want to learn about your powers?"

"To Rivendell!" I pointed and yelled.

Gandalf chuckled.

"To Rivendell, indeed."

*Apostrophe ' in italics 'are thoughts'
*  Yah know what to do with this, right? -> *Song - (Song name) - by (artist name)*
* And last but not least, -*means a memory*- But, I'll announce when it's happening at the time.. So, eh. Just a heads-up.
* Lastly, You'll see some foreign language (Elvish - in this chap.) Then the translation in Bold - "nara man hîn equë" *Telling you what they said.* 

Sorry for all the things to remember! ._.

---- Fifty Eight Years Later ----

I've taken to Rivendell quite well, but it was hard at first. I was seen as Different, Strange and Unique I still am.. Since I'm part Dwarf and Witch. I'm an outcast, here. It's painfully obvious.
