<Half orc?> He shuddered, but then realized that that was the wrong thing to say. <Oh! Nevermind. I mean, I'm really sorry. . . >

Ithilwen laughed. <Yes. Half orc, half human. Rohirrim, I believe,> she said. <And don't worry about it -- I've gotten over it.>

<If you say so. Although it's a little hard to believe. Getting over it I mean.> Tired frowned. <But really, you do look so familiar. . . I wish I could place your face. . .>

Ithilwen shrugged. <Don't feel bad about it,> she said. <I can't place you!> She tried to hide her crutch behind her.

<Ah well, I'm sure it'll come to me.> Tired shrugged. <And what's that?> he asked, pointing to something partly concealed behind her.

<Oh, just a stick!> she said, pushing it back farther. He might recognize her if he knew her leg was broken. Between that and the eye, she was rather ... conspicuous.

<Well why would you be carrying a stick?> Tired asked, then shook his head, and walked around Ithilwen. <A crutch? You're hiding that because. . . ? I'd assume that you'd need it.. . >

Ithilwen nodded. <Yes, I do,> she said. She suddenly found the flowers interesting.

<Aren't you that Vanya lass from Mirkwood that was trying to sneak into Legolas' bedroom that had to be restrained by four of his guards? Heh, that was hilarious,> Tired looked at her hopefully.

At first, Ithilwen looked at him, amazed. She was debating whether she should claim that she was or not. <Ummmm ... > she said, then decided for truth. <I'm married?> She held up her right hand, to show the gold wedding band on her index finger. <And a Noldo.>

<. . . just kidding!> Tired could feel his cheeks turning pink. <Yeah. Eheh. Sorry.> He tried again, to place her face.

Ithilwen was still laughing about that. <Four guards?> she said. <Since when are four guards needed to restrain one Vanya female?>

<Well, see, two of them were really scrawny. I reckon they were just good friends with the Prince. One of them got all confused and started running the wrong way, and then the other was just HUGE. But of course they eventually got her. She had a knife and what she claimed was a love potion. Oh, and she had sharp nails. And pointy shoes. . . > Tired was getting lost in the story. He was just kind of rampling now.
