Timeless Star Flower
Part 18: Prologue: Unwanted Detour
After watching the Fellowship leave on their secret mission and resting for a short time in Imladris, Elanorien decided to visit a friend of hers in Lórien and take a longer, well-earned rest. After saying goodbye to Elrond, she headed south to Eregion and decided to take the Redhorn Pass to avoid Moria, but found it was blocked by snow and storms, causing her to turn and head back.
She bumped into a group of dwarves that planned to head into Moria and reclaim it, and was briefly pulled into that struggle, where a creature in the water took Bróin, son of Brogur, and she was able to take a weapon of the Elder Days and challenge said creature, pushing it back into the stagnant water outside the Doors of Durin, before the dwarves made it into Moria. It seemed now she had no choice but to travel through the city that was long taken by the Enemy, one she had not visited in many a year since it was once held by the dwarves.
