@oflorien gets a starter! ft. celeborn

Wounds were never truly recovered from, even when the scars were long since faded. Celeborn had been looking forward to welcoming his daughter to Lórien after much time away, but he could not blame her for returning home after her capture. Something he would never wish to share with his daughter is this, but it brings his own memories of being a hostage centuries ago.

He does not expect her to attempt the journey again, so he does instead. He is welcome in Rivendell; he pays his respects to Elrond, gives his grandsons his thanks for bringing their mother safely home, and finds Celebrian in one of the delicate gardens overlooking the waterfalls around the sanctuary of her home.

"They told me I would find you out here," he says to alert her to his presence. He walks over and presses a kiss to his daughter's temple. "How are you feeling? We've barely heard from you since your return."
