Elnarsil Name: Elnarsil son of Aurëthil and Dînairë Age: 4500 Born: II 1909 Place: Grey Havens Race: Telerin/Sindarin Elf I am the eldest son of Aurëthil and Dînairë , a noble couple of Sindar and Teleri blood. I was born fifteen minutes before my sister Arele, who is also my twin. With my father being a close friend of Círdan the Shipwright I grew up in his palace and from him and his mariners I learned to love the sea and sail it as well. Though I spent a great part of my childhood among Círdan's folk, I spent my summers with my mother's kin in Mirkwood where I learned my wood and archery skills. My entire family moved to Mirkwood in order to help Thranduil organize the Mirkwood army and keep him in touch with Círdan. When the host in Mirkwood was assembled the army went to Rivendell in order to meet King Gil-Galad there. We spent three years at Rivendell and I greatly enjoyed my time there, learning a lot from Elrond. Then followed the bloodiest campaign of my life - the war in front of the gates of Mordor. The hosts of Sauron were overthrown and he was besieged in Barad-dûr, but at that battle my father perished along with many other fellow Elves and Men. After the seven years of siege Gil-Galad, Sauron and Elendil had been destroyed and I followed master Elrond to Rivendell, while my mother went to help restore Mirkwood to its former beauty. In Rivendell I gained even more battle experience while fighting the hosts of Angmar along with Círdan's forces, and when Laebeth organized the new Elven army I became the leader of the sea-forces along with my sister Arele. Most of my brothers also joined the sea-forces - Anglachel, Lyceus and Belegfuin, but Advalons prefered another troop. As an officer of the army I participated in many battles against Mordor and quests, including the expediton to Mirkwood and Lothlorien led by Mom and Grandma. After these quests I, along with Arele, led the sea-forces and the rest of the army to the Undying Lands in order to get Mithril for the army. During the quest we defeated the horrible Corsairs of Umbar, but the hardest thing was to leave the Undying Lands, hoping to return some day.After the quest I was promoted to Third General of the army and now help my Mom and grandma to lead it. It was in Rivendell that I met my beloved wife, Niniel. She is the daughter of Gil-Galad (honestly, she is Gil-Galad's daughter) and a sister of Aredhel Feanoro. She is also a leader of one of the army troops (Rivendell Defence). Though our permament house is in Rivendell (by the river and our house is called Blue Havens), we often go visit the Heavens and Mirkwood. Back to the top Return to the front page of the book
