Some weeks passed since the group arrived in Rivendell as the Hobbits were resting while the other companions were training or are planning their journey onto the last detail.
"We know our plan, now we only have to wait for our allies to arrive," says Gandalf seeing the map full of marks from all the planning.
"Some people have arrived we are only waiting for the Children of Gondor to send us their messengers," says Elrond informing Nesiara and Gandalf.
John was playing with the children since he wouldn't be with them for a long time. Elrond and Gandalf were seeing them fighting when Elrond asks, "Is that playing in your family?"
"In my part of the family. My husband adapted to it quite fast because of our relationship as a couple began while fighting," says Nesiara as she looked at Elrond.
"Are the Elves marching as commanded?" asks Nesiara as Elrond nods.
"They are on their way. We will move once they arrived. The troops behind the Misty Mountains are awaiting you there," says Elrond as Nesiara seemed happy.
"You know what to do when they arrive," says Nesiara as Elrond nods.
"Then give me a briefing of who will be a possible companion on our journey," says Nesiara as Elrond opened his mouth.
"Legolas, former prince of the Woodland Realm. He is a master of the bow and can fight excellently with two swords," says Elrond as Nesiara looked confused at him.
"Former?" asks Nesiara as both nod towards her.
"Since you became Queen of all Elves every other Elf had to give up their Royal position of Kings or Queens. His father is now Duke Thranduil instead of King Thranduil. Legolas isn't a person to hold grudges so we won't have to worry about him," says Elrond as Nesiara smiles.
"Too bad, my daughter is into women," says Nesiara as both looked at her confused about her remark when someone coughs revealing that someone was around.
"Mother, do you really resent me for being that way?" asks Nora as Nesiara looked at her.
"I would lie if I said 'I didn't.', but your father is the one supporting your decision and he is right everyone should love freely," says Nesiara as she turned around to look at her daughter, "The only thing I hate is that I won't have grandchildren from you."
"That can be changed rapidly," says Nora as she believed in what her father told her.
"You believe in that machine that your father was talking about," says Nesiara as she never saw how artificial insemination worked not like John.
"*sighs* Anyway, you should be with the others. What happened?" says Nesiara as Nora looked indifferent like always.
"A Hobbit by the name of Bilbo Baggins arrived at Rivendell looking for his nephew Frodo Baggins. He is waiting outside," says Nora as Elrond looked angry when Bilbo's name fell while Gandalf was relieved to hear that his friend was still alive.
"I will keep an eye on Bilbo. You continue the preving or whatever you called it," says Gandalf as he left following Nora out.
"It's briefing!" shouts Nesiara to the fleeing Wizard as she then turned to Elrond.
"Who is the next?" asks Nesiara holding her head.
"That would be the Dwarf Gimli. He is an excellent warrior that will be quite useful on your journey. It was his father Glóin that recommended him. Both are staying in Rivendell right now for the Council," says Elrond as Nesiara was quite interested to meet a Dwarf since her father always told her stories about them.
"Aragorn will be representing the Arnor Men. And we still don't know who will be coming from Gondor," says Elrond when John entered the with the children.
"They should arrive in some days. If they don't we will have to move before they arrive," says John as he was carrying the twins.
"So we are still playing the waiting game in the end," says Nesiara as John looked at his wife while signalizing to Elrond to leave them.
"You shouldn't blame Nora for what she is. How many times have I told?" says John as Nesiara didn't look his way.
"I know but every time I think about it something in me hurts because I won't hold her children," says Nesiara as it was the same old discussion they were having.
"You need to let go of it forever or it will only make a cliff between you and our daughter and one day you won't be able to jump to the other side," says John as he puts the children on two chairs as they were sleeping because they were exhausted.
"I know that but it is hard," says Nesiara as John hugged her from behind.
"I know but you need to let go and forget it. She will have children and even grandchildren you just have to accept that she will be with a woman instead of a man," says John as he kissed her forehead.
"Did you see it?" asks Nesiara knowing that John could see a bit into the future lately because of the Force.
"Yes, two beautiful boys. One had black hair while the other had platinum blond hair. But they aren't born in this world but the next one," says John making Nesiara feel better after hearing that.
"Maybe I can let go now that you told me that," says Nesiara as she looked at John.
"I hope so because Nora also gets hurt by you questioning her sexuality. You should talk with her and apologize since she hasn't done anything wrong," says John as Nesiara nods.
"I will do so," says Nesiara as she walks towards the twins and says, "But first let me bring the two to bed."
John sees how Nesiara carried the twins away while he sighs and begins to meditate. It doesn't take much for him to have some vision of the future and some of them are quite bad.
Seeing his son Bran becoming a monster that slaughtered through the lines of the enemy. He was wearing an armor with a lion's head on the torso and a mane surrounding his neck while the helmet was a growling lion head. The color of the armor was black.
Celine was punishing the enemy with the strength of the sun burning her enemies to the ground. Her armor was golden with a bit of royal purple with a sun crown as a helmet.
They seemed to be adults and not children making John wonder if he really should take them into the Time Chamber to train again.
"You shouldn't believe everything you see. What you are seeing is a possible future like the future your two future-selves where from remember," says Jack as he appeared behind John.
They were back to back when Jack continues, "Every future is different and can change like this. *snap* And the future changed to another one but could return back by eating or drinking something. It's because the future isn't written yet."
"But why are the dreams so vivid?" asks John as Jack lifts his shoulder.
"If I knew that," says Jack with a smile before saying, "Everyone has his burden to carry. Even I and Logan."
"You need to find your own way as we did," says Jack as he vanished again.
John looks into the sky thinking about what to do when he turns around and walks towards the room of the twins where Nesiara was looking over them.
"Why are you here?" asks Nesiara confused when John looked at her seriously.
"I want to train them for 3 more days in the chamber. I want you there too," says John in a firm voice.
"You are sure that they will need it," says Nesiara as John nods.
"In the last battle, we will be surrounded by enemies on all sides. We would lose them but in another vision, they were adults and slaughtered their way through the enemy," says John as Nesiara was holding her chin.
"Do we take Nyx and Koltox with us?" asks Nesiara as John nods.
"Yes, they still need training like their partners," says John as Nesiara sighs.
"I will inform Nora and Elrond before apologizing to Nora for what I said today," says Nesiara as she leaves the room while John gave the twins a good night kiss on their forehead leaving them to sleep.
Nesiara found Elrond first and explained to him that they would return in four days when she began to search for Nora.
Nora was looking at the sky from the roof of the main building when Nesiara appeared and Nora asks, "Are you here to drag me further down?"
"No," says Nesiara as she walked towards Nora.
Nora took her sword in hand thinking that they would fight to converge their feelings to each other like normally when Nesiara didn't have her spear or staff in hand.
"No fighting today we do it the old fashioned way as your father would," says Nesiara as stood in front of Nora.
She looked into her daughter's eyes before hugging her and saying, "I'm sorry for always hating and criticizing you."
Nesiara began to cry as she said those words as the facade that Nora had build-up seemed to crumble a bit. Tears began to fall down her cheeks as she returned the hug.
"You know that I love you even if I say those things to you, right," says Nesiara as she didn't stop hugging her daughter.
"It hurt every time you do that," says Nora as she hugged her mother tighter than before.
"I won't do it again," says Nesiara as they stayed like that for a while before Nesiara says, "I and your father are going to enter the chamber again. He had a vision in which the twins died and one in which they were strong enough to survive against what is coming."
"Do I go as well?" asks Nora as Nesiara looked at her and smiles.
"Only if you want to," says Nesiara as Nora nods.
"We should go to bed tomorrow will be a long day," says Nesiara as they leave the roof.
The next morning all five entered the time chamber for the next three days with Nyx and Koltox.
