Before LotR
She knew she'd find him here. She didn't know why, just that she would. "Glauron?" she said, coming up to him and lightly placing her hand on his shoulder.

Glauron turned and took her in his arms. "Oh," he whispered. "I missed you... Elrond said you went with that human... but nothing more..."

She jerked at his touch, but endured it. "Elrond? He knows we went?" she asked, startled.

He blinked and dropped his hands. "Elrond know everything, Ithy," he whispered and looked at her, and moved hair from her face. "Are you alright?"

Her eyes went wide. "Don't!" she cried, then realized how loud her voice was and dropped it to a whisper. "Don't call me Ithilwen! Not until later! They can't know my name! They will use it against us!" She shook her head, eye gleaming with madness. "Not until we're out of the Tower." She was still whispering. In Westernesse.

"Ithy," he said again. "We're home... safe in our own garden." He took her hand and gently turned her. "Look, yonder," he nodded towards Nimmir who was sitting on a blanket, nursing Naru and looking after Cali and Lar. "Our family is here, safe and happy.

She shook her head sadly. "Then they have been taken, too," she murmured. Suddenly, she jerked up, and turned to Glauron. "We can't let them take her, too!" she whispered urgently, hysterically. "She's not pregnant anymore!"

"She's already lived through it..." he whispered, and rubbed her arms. "And they haven't been taken anywhere..." He took her hand and led her to them, and sat down. "Ithy, we're home..." He pointed at the house. "There is our home... no tower... you're save in Rivendell."

She looked at Glauron, surprised, then immensely sad. "Oh, Glauron, you too?" she asked. Then her eyes narrowed in suspicion. "If you're really Glauron!" she all but cried.

"Ask me anything, moonlight," he whispered to her, and Nimmir stared up in amazment, and cooed over the babies, singing softly.
"Glad you're back, Ithilwen," she whispered. "Eramrath's not..." she smirked hoping to make her laugh.

She ignored Nimmir. "How will that prove anything?" she asked. "You could have just gotten the information from the real Glauron!" She jerked out of his arms. "No, you'll not take me, not again!" She rushed down, to scoop up her children.

Nimmir looked up and gently, ever so gently grabbed her arm. "Ithy," she whispered, and looked up. "Please..." Laur fussed and reached out for her father, and Cali soon began to scream. This wasn't his mother, she wasn't acting right.

Ithilwen spun around, eyes wide with terror and insanity. She didn't recognize her sister-in-law. "No, don't touch me!" she yelled out, pulling out one of her knives with her free hand and waving it in Nimmir and Glauron's general direction.

Nimmir stopped and held Naru close, near tears. "Ithilwen!" she cried, tears streaming down her cheeks. "Please... " Naru began to cry with him mother, mostly because he was hungry.

Ithilwen watched mother and son, not responding. Instead, she turned to her husband. She, too, was crying. "What have they done to you?" she asked. In other words, how had they gotten him to go along with this.
"What's going on here?" a voice said. All turned to see Elrond.
