There are many paths that can be taken. It is up to you to decide which one to walk upon. Which one to choose, which one to avoid and warn off others.

To decide with haste is to court danger. I bid you to tread carefully.

Of course. And for that, I worry. There are so many things that could be done, places you could be sent, that I'd never wish for you to endure.

Do not fear. Wherever I may go, I shall find friends and those known to us. It... sounds as you have had poor experiences, even far from home.

I know but I would still worry for you. As I would for anyone that I love.

[She does smile though, a little.] I have been sent to a game where we are to fight a future war but I've friends and family there to keep my spirit from waning.

As I worry for you. [A mother always worried about her children.]

[Her answering smile remains warm, though only slightly larger than Celebrian's.] Who has joined you to aid you so?

[Hugging her mother, trying to relieve her worry.]

Elrond is there and yourself. As well as a dwarf, Thorin Oakenshield is his name. Estel and Arwen were there but have since returned home.

[She held her daughter close. How long it had been...]

Life, death, distance, and the passage of time have no hold here... Or there. [Wonder. Yet joyous wonder.]

Perhaps they may return, or others will arrive.

I don't believe they have hold in any place that we might go from here.

[Not going to pull away anytime soon, hope you don't mind.]

Perhaps but I'd not wish Arwen to return. So much as I love her, war is no place for her.

[Funny. That's exactly what Elladan told Celebrian whe he'd heard where she was.]

[Not in the slightest. But Galadriel does pull back enough to regard her daughter, one hand briefly moving to stroke the backs of fingers down a cheek.]

As I would not wish you there for that reason, were it within my power.

[Leaning her check lightly against Galadriel's hand.]

Would that I can help it but I am of use here as a healer.

[She allowed her hand to linger there.]

Then that is why your path was sent there.

[Smiling.]

I hope that is the reason.

What of you though? What options have been placed before you?

[ooc: I... have a confession. XD My Elrond journal is

rivendell_lord. Hi!]

[Ah, but she's missed her daughter dearly.]

None so specific as one or two paths have been made clear as of yet.

[ooc: Eeeee! <3333]

[And there's never a time that she doesn't miss her mother.]

What paths might those be?

[OOC: ^w^ <33333]

One has recently been placed in more detail. [Her gaze turns a little distant.]

It is beyond the current abilities of Men and those of Middle Earth and the seas beyond. A large city surrounded by metal that... travels through the stars.

[Skepticism. Lots of it.]

Traveling the stars? How can such a thing even be possible? I thought that only Eärendil could achieve such a feat and only through the Valars blessing.

[Precisely her point. Her eyes flick back to her daughter.]

This city does not have the Valars blessing. It is crafted through what Men call science.

Is it even safe to go on such a voyage? To trust this "science" of Men?

[Mom, she's worried. Don't get hurt. :c]

[Hurt? Ha! An affectionate smile settles onto her lips and she strokes her daughter's cheek again.]

I shall be well. There are trees there that I shall watch over, should my path take me there.

[Just let her worry, okay?]

So long as you are kept safe and well. I'll try not to worry overmuch.

[Fond amusement lights her eyes. Oh, she knows Celebrian will worry regardless. Just as she will.]

As I will do the same for you.
