> Alone at the edge of the town, she closes her eyes and begins to sing ... hoping Elean will hear:

> In the Fair Glade where soft breezes blow
> One of our Kin, brave soul he is weeping,
> For lost to this life, a love he did know
> The Wheel turns, a new life she is seeking,
> Fair pendant that once on her neck did show
> Placed into his hands for safekeeping

> Oak Mother, Earth Mother,
> Watch over your son
> In this world and then in the Other

> Great Healer, fair Elf and Sorceress was she
> Her village, her Kin and her lover,
> No hurt was too small, so plain to be seen
> That all Elves, Men and Dwarves called her brother,
> In all time and worlds not once has there been
> An Elf such as Elean’s fair mother

> Sky Mother, Sea Mother,
> Watch over your son
> Until we walk with you some Summer.

> And then she lays a small silver amulet under an old oak tree in the hope that Elean will find it. On it is written the song she sang in Tengwar.

*blinks a tear away* truly a beautiful song...*places a golden coin next to the silver one* this is for the ferry, so that she can pay the ferryman, who will bring her to paradise.
