Gareth put on his boots and tightened his cloak. Finally the news that he had been waiting for for the past forty seven excruciating hours had finally come. Finwe watched his brother frantically shove his belongings into his satchel and then when he was done, he took out a beautiful gold ring with an aquamarine gemstone and gently placed it in his pocket.
"Brother?" Finwe spoke with a stutter. He didn't pay attention to the ring the first time Gareth had proposed to Melissa but now that he could see it clearly he was stunned. "Where did you get that ring?"
Gareth looked up at Finwe in shock, "wasn't it you who placed it in my chambers the day I wanted to propose to Mel?"
"Me?" Finwe responded surprised, are you sure of this.
Gareth dug into his other pocket and handed a piece of parchment to Finwe. "That was the note that was with the ring when I found it."
