"Elvish"

Aragorn ran up onto a rock as his eyes gazed out at the grassy field. He took off in a sprint, the Fellowship following closely behind him. They halted under the leaves of the tall trees.

He heard Adara speaking to the Hobbits and encouraging them to drink and rest while they could. He glanced back at her and their eyes met briefly before she turned away from him. Aragorn was stunned by the lack of warmth in them and it seemed even the others had noticed as he saw the looks of concern on all of their faces even Boromir. He turned away and called for everyone to start moving again.

"Stay close, young Hobbits! They say that a great sorceress lives in these woods, an Elf-witch, of terrible power. All who look upon her, fall under her spell...and are never seen again." Adara listened with a faint amount of amusement. She had decided that if the Lady Galadriel wanted to take a peek into her mind then she could at her own risk. Although she also felt that maybe she should speak to the Elf for a little just to see what she thought about her decision.

Adara watched as she saw Frodo startle before looking around their surroundings. She knew who it was that was speaking to him. Adara waited to hear her voice in her own mind but nothing came. A small frown appeared on her lips. She really thought that the Lady Galadriel would have wanted to speak to her.

"Well, here is one Dwarf she won't ensnare so easily. I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox!" Arrows appeared out of nowhere, each pointed at a member of the Fellowship. Legolas also had his bow out, an arrow at ready. Everyone looked around alarmed except Adara who merely glared at the Elf with an arrow at her head.

A tall, golden haired Elf appeared from within the group of guards.

Haldir.

"The dwarf breathes so loud, we could have shot him in the dark." Gimli growled in reply.

They were led to a platform in the rustling foliage to rest while Haldir greeted Legolas. "Mae govannen, Legolas Thranduilion." (Welcome Legolas, son of Thranduil).

Legolas nodded at the Captain before he replied, "Govannas vîn gwennen le, Haldir o Lórien." (Our Fellowship stands in your debt, Haldir of Lórien). Adara watched with eager eyes as they spoke to one another. Turning to the rest of the group, she translated for them so they could understand what was going on. The Hobbits and Gimli smiled gratefully while Boromir merely nodded in acknowledgement.

"So much for the legendary courtesy of the Elves! Speak words we can also understand!" Gimli grumbled under his breath to the group but Adara knew that the Elves heard what he had said.

She could understand where he was coming from. It definitely was rude of them to speak another language when not all those present in the group could actually speak the language but she thought she could placate the group by translating for them. Guess she was wrong.

Haldir glared at Gimli, "We have not had dealings with the Dwarves since the Dark Days."

"And you know what this Dwarf says to that? Ishkhaqwi ai durugnul!" (I spit upon your grave!) Gimli replied. Adara slapped him on the arm in retaliation before shaking her head at the Dwarf and mouthing for him to shut up.
