I hope everyone has recovered from the weekend... whatever it was you spent it with. *g*

Here is the place to tell us about your daily success (or the lack of it)!
May the magic be with us all!

After my vaccination I didn't sleep well on Sunday night (partly my slightly sore arm, but mainly because of my husband's sore arm and tossing and turning — I thought to get mine in the arm I don't sleep on — it didn't occur to him), so there was not a lot of writing yesterday.

But today I have dome about 500 words. The elves have reached the new lands in Arda that have been kept for the wood elves eventually arriving;

As they descended into what was, truly, a forest the first trees had been like excited elflings when they first see a guest coming towards them – he could almost imagine their voices were saying “Look! Look! They are coming! Look – they are almost here!”

Then they began to travel through oak and beech; over streams edged in willow, ash, and alder; there were drifts of conifers and tall majestic trees that Legolas realised were the trees Tindómë had called redwoods. All around them were signs of life; reptiles and amphibians where there was water, insects and birds in the air, and signs of mammals both large and small as they followed meandering paths made not by elves, but by deer, badgers, wild boar…

Overshadowing everything though was the song of the forest. The song of the trees was overwhelming. As if each tree was trying harder than the next to greet the elves.

Beautiful images there! I love The song of the trees was overwhelming. As if each tree was trying harder than the next to greet the elves.

What a wonderful day to be an Elf in Arda.
