[Novnarwen]

Tanroth stood outside his cabin, which would no longer be his after this day. The sun was rising as Tanroth gazed towards the sparkling sunbeams, pressing up and over the hills. The leaves in the trees of Lothlorien murmured in the wind, which swiftly came by and by. As he stood there, watching the beautiful scenery of a wood that had been his home for ever, he realised how much he would miss sitting in the grass a summer day after a hard day at work. He had often dreamed of getting away from Lothlórien, just a day or two. However, now, when he really was leaving, he felt sad by this thought, but thought of his lost family and how merry they're meeting would be.

"Ah, Rostion, Firiel!" he cried out, when getting the first glimpse of the Elves, journeying with him.

The couple approached, looking happy and eager. They, as Tanroth bore their weapons, which Tanroth thought would come in hand. After all, Sauron's forces were gathering, and therefore he knew as perhaps the others that they had much to fear on this journey.

He gave a sigh as he shook Rostion's hand, while taking Firiel's hand, kissing it gently. "I am really glad to have you two by my side on this ....." he didn't get to finish his sentence before Arilewen, Dunaire and Solondil came springing towards them, obviously very happy to be there. Minutes later, as the sun had raised for real, the others made it to Tanroth's cabin as well.

They gathered around Tanroth, waiting for him to speak. The wind made one final swish before Tanroth at last spoke.

"Dear friends," he said taking a very deep breath in the cold air. "We must all say our farewells to the fair woods of Lórien, because after today we will never see our homes again." He paused, feeling his heart beat like never before.

"Now, let us part, the ship is waiting for us. We will take our leave by going west, to the outskirts of Lorien before we will make our way over the Redhorn Pass in the Hithaeglir (Misty Mountains.) "

With these words, the Elves started walking. Having a last look, cast towards his home, Tanroth went in the lead, having Firiel and Rostion on his side.
