Okay, let's go with "Enca shall now update this thread either Friday or Saturday of every week, depending on what her schedule allows." And this week, it happens to be Saturday.
Quote:
Ngîl cennin eriel vi
Menel aduial,
Glingant sui vîr
Síliel mae.
Ngîl cennin firiel vi
Menel aduial,
Dúr, dúr i fuin
Naenol mae.
I saw a star rise high in the
Evening sky,
It hung like a jewel,
Softly shining.
I saw a star fade in the
Evening sky,
The dark was too deep and so light died,
Softly pining.

So this is the part with Arwen and her vision. It's a nice scene, with lovely music, but the best part is, of course, Elrond in his little corsety robe.
We can tell she is returning to Rivendell by the arpeggios of the Rivendell theme in the string section. A small oboe solo connects this section with a darker rendition of the same theme as the reforging of the sword is discussed. We then hear this:
Quote:
An i ú nathant
An i naun ului
A chuil, anann cuiannen
A meleth, perónen
For what might have been,
For what never was.
For a life, long lived
For a love half given

The soloist soars high as it is made clear that Arwen's decision is made.
So: do you like? Not like? Let's talk -- I want responses, especially seeing as you all were so distraught when I didn't update for a while.
