Nimmir looked up and wiped her eyes. She spotted Saerwen. "Where's Ithilwen," she whispered and moved her red hair from her eyes.

For this, the twins would say nothing. They bowed their heads, and allowed Glauron to tell his sister. It was his right.

Nimmirs eyes welled up with tears and she covered her face. "We'll see her again," she whispered with a nod. To Saewen she nodded and hugged her gently. "Welcome to Rivendell."

Saerwen accepted the woman's embrace, startled. "Thank you, M'lady," she said. The twins only nodded, eyes tearing up. They would, indeed, see their mother again, but when?
Just then, Elrond came running. "I just heard the news!" he said. Maerwen had gone to him, next. "Thank the Valar that you have returned to us!" He turned from Glauron to the twins, literally crying from joy.

Glauron loked up and bowed lowly. "My Lord," he whispered and looked up. Elrond looked around and grabbed his shoulder.
"Welcome back to Rivendell, Master Glauron... I'm sorry for your loss... all of your loss..."
Nimmir was still hugging the children and kissed their foreheads.

Elrond kissed the twins, then looked at Saerwen. "Welcome to Rivendell!" he said. He then looked around. "But, where is Ithilwen? Surely she is with you?"

Glauron shook his head. "She's west," he whispered and looked down with a sigh. "They killed her."

Elrond's eyes got big with surprise, then narrowed. "I am sorry for you," he said. "She will be there when you sail West, waiting for you." He shook his head. "Perhaps it's even for the best!"

"With a child," he whispered and looked down. "And prehaps they'll both be there." He took a deep breath.
"Nimmir," he whispered. "Get up... Laur needs to speak with you later..." He tutted at his younger sister and touched her face before holding her like the good older brother he was. "Don't cry... we're all here."

Elrond looked at Glauron, surprised. "With child ... ?" he said. Then saw Saerwen. "Forgive my manners!" he said. "I have forgotten! I am Elrond. May I ask your name?"
Saerwen shrugged. "It's quite alright," she said. "You've been busy. And as for my name ... I honestly don't know what it is."

"It wasn't mine," he whispered and held Nimmir close. Nimmir looked up.
"Like Naru?" she whispered. Glauron nodded and let her go to Laur as tears welled in her eyes.
"Well," Elrond said. "What do you do by?"

Saerwen shook her head. "I went by Saerwen," she said. "But I do not wish to anymore. It is ... well, it's a translation of my slave name. I translated it and started using it as a show of defiance, but in time I forgot my real name."

Elrond nodded and sighed. "Then what do you wish to be called?" he asked.

She smiled. "Perhaps Galwen?" she asked.
OOC: lucky

"And indeed you are," he whisepred. "You shall be Galwen." He kissed her forehead. "Will you be staying with Glauron? Or would you like a room in the palace?"
