{Uil is getting around on three feet while her paw heels, but her spirit is as bright as ever. She licks Erestor's hand and leads the way to the music room. Eärendil smiles and gently tugs on Erestor's sleeve.

In the music room, there is a pie waiting with two dessert plates.}

Thank you for coming. I wanted to speak to you about my Uncles.

Your son is my lord, your highness - I am at your disposal, excepting when my Lady's needs are involved. [ He says mildly ]

Of course - what about?

I know. {He serves the pie and sits down, dusting off his hands.} Uncle Ecthelion and Uncle Glorfindel like you. I can tell you are important to them.

It feels...strange...to not know you too.

[ Oh. Well then.

Erestor crooks a wry smile at Earendil and accepts the plate with thanks, pouring them both the juice ]

I suppose that is true. I am very fond of them as well. I fear I am quite boring, however!

{Uil crawls onto a pillow and watches them, ears perked. Eärendil takes a bite of pie before answering.}

You can't be boring. They wouldn't like someone boring.

[ Erestor smiles a little wryly ]

Well, I suppose it would depend on who you asked and what their definition of boring is, no?

[ Oh no, no no, he shakes his head immediately ]

No, never. It was hardly your fault, little prince. That blame is not yours, and you should never think that.

I would ask them! And... I think Uncle Glorfindel thinks meetings are boring. Paperwork too. As for Uncle Ecthelion...

{Now that's tougher.}

Maybe a place with no music?

{He pales and peeks at Erestor.}

They told me that too, but if I had been able to fight, they might have escaped with us.

He rather does. [ SO VERY DRY ]

Which is why I am always impressed when he comes to join me and try and help with mine.

[ Erestor shakes his head firmly and reaches across to tap Earendil's arm until he can meet his eyes firmly ]

And do your uncles lie? If they do not blame you, then why do you blame yourself? One more blade would be of little use in a rout.
