Chapter 1
With my vaults mostly emptied and my heirlooms/ladyships claimed. I was basically a Duchess of 27 Houses. I bid my farewells and left to my true home... Middle-Earth.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rose POV~
When I stepped through the portal towards my true home I noticed many things changed. I was slightly taller, and *ahem* bigger. I arrived in a rather large manor. I also noticed that the house-elves that are bound to me from all of the manors and castles changed. They were no longer the short, skinny, grey-colored skin beings. Now they were their beautiful human-ish form.
While exploring the manor, I noticed that we occupied a rather large village... well more like a kingdom. I also noticed that everything was prepared for us beforehand. The manor was actually a beautiful castle that was elegantly made within the gigantic golden-wood tree at the heart of the kingdom.
_______________________________________________________________________
When I left the other world, I had about 2,000 adult elves. It has now been over 200 years since I came here. I have never been freer than I have since I lived here. The population has sky-rocketed since then. We have been trading with other races for about 6-7 years now, so we have slightly established our kingdom. I have met with my fellow estari. Rabaghast the brown has his own little cottage here because of the creatures I brought with me. Gandalf the gray is always welcomed, same with the blue twins, Alatar and Pallando. Saruman, or as I like to call him Sour-man, Is not allowed in these woods, or my kingdom.
The kingdom is magically more advance than most, in not all kingdoms in middle earth. For emergencies, pregnant women, old, injured, and for easy transport, we have magic elevators that are like the floo network in magical Britain, but without nausea and tugging feeling. We have hunters, soldiers/warriors, shield maidens, medics/healers, Scouts, guards, musicians, blacksmiths, farmers, seamstresses, mages, Barriers, ward makers, and potion/Elixer makers. We have school systems and an economy.
We have not been in touch with our brethren since we came here. Though there are rumors about us, well mainly about me. See, there was an addition to the estari. I am known as Rosalind the green, or just rose the green for my eyes. Gandalf comes with questions or his thirst for knowledge, almost always you can find him in the royal library or with me in the potions room. As I have all the information about both worlds magic, languages, and history, which I have learned all within my time here and before.
I was cut out of my musings by a very frantic dobby almost sprinting towards me.
"Your majesty! *Gasp* L-lord Elrond, and his company are coming this way.*Gasp* T-the scouts say they should be here in about 3 and a half hours!" He panics.
"Prepare for company, tell the dining hall and rooms for them," I say while walking out of my office. I head toward my chambers to make myself presentable. After bathing, brushing my long hair, and putting make-up on, I get dressed into my formal wear. I soon place on my jewelry as a knock on the door was heard.
"My queen? They have arrived." One of the maids said. I soon walk out with a guard on either side of me. With my head held high, each step filled with as much elegance, grace, and authority I make my way to the throne room. I sit upon my golden throne with my staff in hand on my left. Back straight, head high, and eyes staring at the door as I hear murmuring.
Elrond POV~ (Finally right, lol)
After hearing the stories of the hidden elven kingdom of the green elven estari from Mithlandril, I had to see for myself. With Mithlandril as our guide and the visions I have been receiving, we made plans for the hidden kingdom.
A week after our departure, we entered a beautiful forest with no evil or plight. We soon see or take notice of the eyes watching us. soon we are halted by a group of elleths with weapons drawn.
" State your name, and purpose of entering our kingdom! Speak the truth or turn back now!" One stated as a group of ellions appeared. Soon they notice Mithlandril's presence and lower their weapons.
"It is nice to see you again Mithlandril. I see you have a company with you this time. Next time send a raven beforehand. Who have you brought with you this day?" said an ellion with long black hair.
"It is nice to see you again Nolen, I have brought with me Lord Elrond of Rivendell, as well as visiting the library again," Mithlandril said to the now named ellion. Nolen turned to me and my company before turning towards another and murmuring something into his ear. He ran off with a few of both groups.
"You know the way old friend, we must get back to scouting. The queen is waiting." He stated before he left with the rest of the groups. Soon enough we continue until we see the magnificent kingdom in all its glory. Mithlandril chuckles as we reach the bridge. The guards nod as we pass by. I can't help but notice that everyone here, besides me and my company are high elves. The magic and trees sing in harmony as we get closer to the largest tree in the kingdom.
along the way, many elleths and elflings throw flowers crowns, and white roses as we arrive. A few manage to land on our heads before we get off our steads. We are lead through multiple hallways before we stand before two large doors. The ellion disappears through the doors before we are allowed entry.
As I enter the throne room to meet the queen of the hidden kingdom, I can understand the rumors better than ever before. Sitting on the throne of wood, was the newest estari, Rosalind the green. On both sides are her guards.
Rose POV~
I watched as Lord Elrond and Gandalf enter the room. I smile gently upon them as I see his guard's eyes widen. I softly giggle at the sight before speaking.
"Welcome to the hidden kingdom, Lord Elrond. Greetings to you Gandalf. You may leave to the library if you wish, but you must be on time for the welcoming feast and celebration of Samhain."
"Many greetings Your Majesty. I thank you for the reminder, I will be on my way then." He spoke before leaving once more. I turn my gaze towards the door as two others enter. Dobby comes and tells me who they are in High-elven.
: "You Majesty, Lady Galadriel of Lothlorien, and King Thranduil with his son Prince Legolas of Mirkwood have also come." : He spoke before standing aside. I look ahead at the new arrivals as they stand near Elrond. I smile once more before speaking.
" Welcome to the Hidden Kingdom Lady Galadriel of Lothlorien, King Thranduil, and Prince Legolas of Mirkwood. I am Queen Rosalind the green, though I prefer Rosalind or rose. I am very glad to meet you all, though I would have preferred a letter or a warning beforehand." I look at Thranduil with stern eyes towards the end.
"Greetings Rosalind the green, I am grateful for the invitation you sent to me, I got so excited about the meeting that I forgot to send a reply." Lady Galadriel said as we lightly giggled. We had met before on multiple occasions in the past, to the point I could be unladylike and we laugh about it later.
"It is alright, I was mainly speaking to the men in the room. You all may rest before the welcoming feast, Dobby shall show you to your chambers for the duration of your stay. If you have anything you wish to discuss with me in private, He shall show you to my office. With that said, I bid you a dew." I said as I stand and leave the throne room. I walk towards my chambers to change before I head to my office. No doubt three of them are already there. I lightly chuckle at the thought.
