The daughter of a Grey Elf was a rare sight to see outside of the elven lands. The Daughter of a Grey Elf and Warg Elf, or werewolf as they were sometimes called, was an even rarer sight. The daughter of these two creatures, hanging out with Dwarves, well, that was all but unheard of! Yet, there she was, in the company of a Dwarf.
Though she was an elven hybrid, the large Dwarf was still a tad taller than she was, and as far as she knew, he always would be. With the dwarf warrior standing at a "towering" 5'2'' tall, she only stood a mere 4'9''. She often blamed this short stature on her mother's side of her blood line.
Aside from being shorter than the dwarf, Zarriel showed no signs of being a dwarf herself. She was stocky, but her shoulders were not squared like that of a dwarf. Her skin was a creamy color, while her eyes were a deep brown-green in color. Her hair was long and deep brown with streaks of chestnut, but braids and dwarven beads streaked the natural cloak. She wore worn brown and grey clothing with a slightly furry jacket, and a fuzzy hat that covered her elven ears. A sword was strapped to her waist, as were a few daggers in her boots and gauntlets, and a spiked hammer like weapon was strapped to her back.
"Master Dwalin, do you really think this Halfling will help?" She asked as she looked up at the dwarf that had become her mentor and teacher.
The dwarf was stocky with thick arms, thick chest and well... everything about him was like the rocks of the mountains he was born in. He was mostly bald, with a ring of hair around his head, that eventually connected with his thick greying beard on each side of his face. Tattoos covered his bald head, arms and hands, and even his chest. His clothing was similar to Zarriel's, just thicker and more like that of a senior warrior than an apprentice. Hammers were strapped to his back, with a few small blades hidden in his clothing. His eyes were dark and strong, yet a softness was hidden deep within them.
"Ah, I doubt it, Lass." Dwalin replied as they followed the trails through the small hills of the land called "The Shire". It was getting late, and the sun had already set far behind the hills.
"He better have the food that Gandalf said he would," Dwalin huffed as his stomach made a deep growling sound. Zar snorted and shook her head slightly as she looked at the sprawling trails behind them. From different paths, she could see figures of other dwarves coming towards the same location. That must be the rest of the company.
It had been almost a year since she had see the rest of the company. It was just months before that she had met the other elf-hybrid, and they fooled the dwarves into taking them in. Of course, had the dwarves known they had elven blood, well, they would have probably been killed. So, what they didn't know didn't hurt them. Besides...
Zarriel looked around again, admireing what she had gotten since becoming a "dwarf" so to say. She got an amazing Mentor. She had become friends with Nori and Bofur and Bifur, before they were seperated again that is. Not to mention with Andri. It was sad that she had to leave her elven companion to follow her mentor, but it was well worth it. She was becoming the warrior that Dwalin once was!
Finally, they came up to a circular door at the top of a hill, and Dwalin pounded a heavy fist on it. He turned to look at the figures at the bottom of the valley below the hills.
"That must be them," He muttered, more to himself. Zarriel nodded, then turned, in unison with Dwalin, when the Hobbit door open.
"Dwalin, At your service," Dwalin bowed low, and Zarriel followed suit.
The Hobbit, whom was short with a mop of sandy brown hair and blue-green eyes, tied his robe up, flustered.
"Bilbo...baggins... at your service..."
Dwalin pushed inside the door.
"Uhh.. Do I know you?" The hobbit asked. Dwalin growled a No, then started to remove his jacket and ask where the food was.
Of course, all the dwarf had to do was follow his nose. With Zarriel on his heels, she followed him into the kitchen where he got into, what appeared to be, the Hobbit's dinner of fresh Lake Bluegill fish with some home grown veggies.
"A-and who are you?" Bilbo asked as he looked up, ever so slightly, at Zarriel. Zar looked at Dwalin, who nodded in approval of her to speak.
"Zarriel, apprentice of Dwalin, at your service," She said as she bowed quite low, almost to the point that her almost-comical-fuzzy hat almost fell off.
Bilbo blinked, but was soon distracted by Dwalin again, then the doorbell.
