*has had something on her mind for a while but has been reluctant to do anything about it, considering*

*decides now would be a good time, as she's unlikely to be missed or followed in the dark*

*gathers up some spare blankets and candles and puts on a wonderfuly furative hooded cloak*

*heads quickly down to the prisons to visit Beren*

Current Mood: calm

*is sitting on his cot, leaning against the wall*

*hears footsteps but sees no light*

Daeron, if that's you come to rub in the fact that we've been plunged into night, I'd just like to recommend that you develop a fear of the dark, OK?

*remains silent, but amused*

*finds the keys to his cell in the guards' room*

*lets herself in and closes the door behind her*

*lays the bundle of blankets at the foot of his cot and places a few of the lit candles nearby*

*almost falls off his cot*

*in a whisper* Lady Melian?

*smiles at him* Hello, Beren. I would say it's nice to see you but I'm afraid the circumstances don't call for it. Now lie still. Let's see how badly you're hurt.

*begins to clean his more severe wounds*
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:03:56  

*tries to stay still* *is pretty speechless for a while*

*eventually* You know who I am.
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:06:09  

*cleans the wounds but does not dress them so it will not be obvious she was there*

*mixes a concoction of herbs* Drink this, it will help with the pain.

*looks at him closely* Of course I do. Did you think I would be so quick to forget?
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:07:37  

*drinks the concoction, grimacing slightly*

No, of course you would not. Thingol remembers me and so does Daeron. *pauses* Tinúviel doesn't, though, and I thought that she'd be the first to know me.

*takes the cup from him*

Some when first arriving here do not remember their previous lives. They usually remember in time. This will account for most of the people you find who do not know you.

*as gently as possible* Lúthien remembers her first life rather well.
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:13:35  

*grimly* I remembered everything rather quickly.

*sucks in a breath* Yet she doesn't remember me. I do not think I am wrong in thinking that I was a rather large part of her life, yet she doesn't remember me.
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:16:23  

*avoids looking at him* It is something I cannot explain myself. She remembers everything up until she met you and then there is nothing. I have my theories on the matter but I dare not speak them without validation.
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:19:16  

*covers his eyes with a hand* Will she remember me, do you think? Or is this some visitation for the wrongs of my past life, for ever entangling her life with mine?
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:22:39  

*smiles softly* She remembers you already. She may not be able to remember the events, but there is no doubt she knows precisely who you are. She just does not understand it herself yet.
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:35:20  

I'm not sure how much comfort I can take from that, my lady. It is rather difficult to be optimistic from the inside of a prison cell.
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:37:52  

I do not think you will be here much longer. *mysteriously* Often instinct overpowers reason.

You understand I cannot let you out myself?
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:43:05  

*sighs* I understand although I had hoped that you might find your way to dropping the keys.

*smiles wryly* Thank you for your time and consideration, Lady Melian.
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:46:10  

*laughs softly* It is not my place to make things too easy for you, Beren. The things in life worth having are those worth earning. But you know that already.

*bows her head gracefully* It was my pleasure. Stay strong, Beren. This will not endure for long.
From: [info]berencamlost Date: 01/27/2007 13:49:49  

*laughs softly* And she is worth earning, time and again.

My thanks, my Lady. I appreciate everything you've done for me.
From: [info]queenmelly Date: 01/27/2007 13:53:55  

I will send something more nourishing than whatever if anything they have been feeding you as soon as I can. Until then, rest.

*lays a hand on his head and sends Majikal Maia soothing thoughts of peace and comfort* I hope to see you soon, Son.

*lets herself out of the cell and leaves*
