Ellaryn Bracegirdle ~ Oromë's Oasis

Ellaryn followed the others, she watched as Ofnir pointed out the tree archway, she squinted her eyes almost closed trying to see the leaves movement. There was something there, or was it just the breeze? Swallowing the last of the berries she looked about for something else to eat.

Walnuts and plenty about, windfall and easy to get too. Eagerly she reached and gathered and good handful. Then she heard it, a subtle sigh or a breath of tune. It seemed timeless, enchanting and mesmerizing. All at the same time, how had she missed such a beautiful sound?

She also spotted the smooth stone part hidden by the grass, only for her it was a tool. Walnuts at the ready she hummed quietly as she went to draw her short sword and cracked open each shell with it's hilt. The sound and her own chewing soon lost the eerie song in the glade, but the memory was there and she did her best to hum along.

The delicious walnuts and her own chomping teeth, soon ended her attempts and she almost sad that her own noises drowned out the subtle song about them. She turned to Aelin and asked "What would...hmmm, tasty...happen if you...<crunch> just another piece...sang the same song?"

Ellaryn didn't really wait for a reply as she already went to gather more walnuts and crack them open.

they were too far too tasty. Ellaryn chewed the sweet and succulent berries as she approached Aelin and Ofnir. She absentmindedly reached out and helped herself too even more, before she knew it she stood beneath the towering form of Lyanna. She looked up at her impressive stance, the sword held ready in her hand, and held up her own small hand offering some of the sweet berries.

"Mpppfft, mmm hur velly gud." she swallowed her mouthful and spoke to Aelin "Sorry, I still don't hear anything."

Ellaryn spotted spotted more fruit close by and quickly picked more berries, filling her mouth with the delicious bounty of the oasis.

"Perhaps dessert would reassure you even further?” he asked the hobbit. Ellaryn's hands stopped halfway to her mouth, she hadn't even realised she had already helped herself to the fruit baring bushes and trees around. She took a small portion of the remaining berries in her hand, offering them to Ofnir, the rest she stuffed into her already juice stained mouth.

Ellaryn nodded to the wizard's words, she chewed thoughtly while watching Lyanna. Maybe she had more in commen with herself than she first thought, she was after all here to make ends meet and was so far away from home. She gave a small shudder as she also realised that all the company had travelled alone to be here.

"Quiet! The rest of you as well!"

"What?" thought Ellaryn, as she stopped in mid-chew to listen. Cocking her head to one side, she couldn't hear anything. Ofnir seemed to pick up on something and then Aelin was off, moving to the west side of the lake. Just when they were all about to relax as well.

"No snacks then" Ellaryn knew better than to speak aloud, quiet was ordered and Ofnir had very sharp ears. It didn't mean that the bounty of the oasis had to wasted though. Ellaryn got her gear together as she followed Aelin, she picked apples and nuts for future meals. More berries as she passed them went straight to her mouth, it had to do as her meal.

The fruit,and the cake from the previous night, being the most food she had had on two consecutive days, if this kept up she might get her old plump figure back from years ago.

Ellaryn Bracegirdle ~ Oromë's Oasis

Ellaryn rode on in silence. Her thoughts were both troubled and calm as she followed along with the company of adventures. What else could she call the group? Impressive was the warrior newcomer and she often looked behind at Lyanna, she had some nagging thought at the back of her mind but couldn't quite place it.

The oasis came into view, the steam already obscuring part of the woods. It was so peaceful and as the took a break, Ellaryn found herself at the waters edge in rapture. She sat at the edge enjoying the pleasant warmth that came from the small lake and gently let one hand drift in its waters. It was as she watched her hand that her doubts suddeningly reared and she quickly left to search for Ofnir.

"Ofnir?" Ellaryn walked up looking about to if Lyanna was close to them, she rubbed her hand dry as the cold seemed to seep into it after leaving the waters edge. She held her hand up to Ofnir, the silver ring was still covered by her makeshift leather ring. "Will you be staying with Lyanna? Or perhaps you have one more of these? if the dangers are as to be feared, how can tell if she.....if what happened back....."

Her thoughts turned dark as her memories bought up the innkeper, his daughter and the hunter. She thurst her hand into a pocket to get a little warmth but found that could not continue with her frame of thought. She looked at Ofnir and turned to Lyanna.
