Year 2941
Ethíniel wandered around Bree on one of her shopping trips, a basket filled with good, some that she would not find in her temporary home, where no one would dare look for her, The Shire, she had taken the role of house maid of the hobbit Bilbo Baggins. She had just finished when she felt someone walk next to her, "Gandalf..." she sighed annoyed, she felt his magic reach her before she saw his grey beard and cloak, "Ethíniel, wonderful to see you my dear, we must speak." Gandalf said lowly knowing the Princess of Wyrmlong didn't wish prying eyes on her, "Whatever it is you wish to offer me, the answer as always is no." The blonde hobbit looking woman stated smiling as she paid for the flowers that had been offered to her.
"You have yet to hear my offer." Gandalf teased, "I care not Gandalf!" she snapped before taking a deep breath and whispering "I care not for adventure, I quite like this quiet life I live now, no one needing my opinion every 5 seconds." "Do you not still care for him?" Gandalf inquired as the duo made their way back to Ethíniel's pony, "He is beyond hope and reason, he deserted!" The princess told him as she mounted her sandy brown pony.
"Yet you were there when he attacked." the wizard told her calmly, "I had warned Thrór what would happen if he kept all that gold, he did not listen, no one ever does." she retorted, "Had you told him your name he would have." Gandalf exclaimed, "I told him I was there to help him he accused me of trying to rob him!" Ethíniel growled as she snapped her pale green eyes at the wizard, who shuddered under the queen's strong gaze.
Ethíniel was a force to be reckoned for she was headstrong and stubborn as the dwarves, "Thorin is not his grandfather." Gandalf merely stated, "Did he not offer you food and warm clothes to travel?" he added, "Aye but the same blood runs through him, the same weakness." she scoffed before pulling her cloak on, hiding her face from people who might believe the myths.
Just then a man walked past them, the hood of his cloak hiding his face though Gandalf seemed to know who he was, "I must leave." he said, "By all means, so must I." Ethíniel stated nodding her head to the wizard before trotting away in the rain.
