   Verena was ready in front of the gate to see Thranduil off.

Thranduil came to her "I won't be long"

"No need to rush, finish everything and come back when you're sure everything is done."

Thranduil nodded, he then kissed Verena's forehead "alright, I'm leaving" He mounted his horse, and Verena smiled at him.

Thranduil smiled back and he started to gallop on his horse, followed by Feren and Galion

   Verena was sitting in Thranduil's study room, reading some papers with a maid.

"Reina, can you call Meludir for me?" She asked the maid

"Yes, my lady" the maid then went out

   Verena felt dizzy, she massaged her head several times, but it still didn't do anything. She stood up from her seat, and suddenly everything swayed, and she felt sick. She went across the room to get some water, and drank it all, but there was no change

Meludir entered the room "Your Majesty the Queen wants to see me?" he asked

Verena turned too fast, her world spun, suddenly she fell and the last thing she saw was darkness

"VERENA! ELROS, REINA!!!" Meludir shouted Elros and Reina entered the room in panic

"What happened?" Elros said

"I have no idea!" Meludir cradled Verena in his arms "Reina, call the healer. And Elros quickly chase the king before he gets too far."

Both Reina and Elros ran out in panic. Elros ran on his horse and spurred as fast as he could

    Thranduil was galloping his horse slowly because he was not in a hurry

"How long will we be there, Feren?"

"Three to five days, my lord"

"MY LORD... MY LORD!!!" Elros' scream was heard, which was deafening

    Thranduil burst into his chamber with a frightened face

"What happened!?" He raised his voice

"Elvenking, you should calm down first. I have happy news to tell you."

Thranduil looked at Verena who was sitting on the bed with a pale face, but a smile on her face

"What news?" He asked, confused

"Your Majesty the queen, is with a child"

Thranduil was confused "child? What child?"

Verena laughed amusedly "I'm expecting. We are expecting"

Thranduil remained silent

"I bare your child dummy! Your seed is in my stomach!" Verena said plainly

Everyone in the room held back their laughter.

Thranduil smiled happily "is that true!" He yelled, he then jumped onto the bed and gently stroked Verena's stomach

"I hope that Her Majesty the Queen is not too stressed and tired. That could be dangerous for herself and the baby in her stomach."

And with that they all left the room, giving Thranduil and Verena some privacy

Thranduil smiled at Verena, his hand stroked Verena's stomach "it's here. Our child"

Verena nodded

Thranduil kissed Verena's forehead, he then kissed Verena's stomach and laughed

"Oh Verena, I never asked you for anything, but yet, you gave me everything."
