Earendil nodded. "Then perhaps we shall," he murmured, grinning impishly.
Just then, Tinuviel appeared in the doorway. She looked just as young as she had for the past several decades, her long black hair trailing to her feet, her thin face and dusky skin glowing radiantly. Her movements were as graceful as ever, but now that she was grown, even more so than they had used to be, and though her eyes retained their youthful sparkle, she was no longer as giggly.
"If I'm not mistaken," she said softly, her voice no longer filled with childish laughter, though it was still warm, "you are ... Yue ..."
She smiled at Yue. "It has been a very long time, indeed, since we have met ..."
She nodded a greeting to Lin, then turned to Yukito and Miyu.
"But I have not yet met these two," she said softly, smiling brightly at the two of them. "I am Princess Tinuviel. And who might you be?"

Yukito smiled bowing a bit, "I am Yukito, Yue's brother."
He paused realizing that was probably the case in the family, and she probably could have figured that one out for herself. Oh well, now she was certain that he was.
"Mi...." Miyu edged closer to her father.
Granted she was already quite close as it was, the only way she could become closer was if she melted into him. So many new people, she barely made it down the hallway with her father.
"This is my daughter Miyu," Yue explained putting a hand on her head, "She's just very shy."
And she was overwhelmed by this place as well, but he wasn't going to say that. She would get use to it eventually like all things.

If what Elnara told him about her time at the castle and her need to go find her mother true, then she probably wasn't here that long before she disappeared. He looked thoughtful at that that.
"Lots of time indeed...." Lore murmured, "Maybe we can take a look at the whole castle thing while we wait."
He chuckled at that thought, after all who knew what one could find in a castle.
"So... what sights would you like to see while we're here?"

Lin waved back at Tinuviel before looking up at Earendil with a slight grin on her face, "Just to let you know..." she told him softly, "If he hasn't met Gion yet, I want to see their first meeting."
Lin wasn't as bad as Donovan, but she was slowly developing his taste in humour. Not as much, but situtations like one that could happen she wasn't going to miss.

Elnara smiled and lowered her eyes thoughtfully.
"We have to see Grandmother and Grandfather," she murmured, "my mother's parents ... and we should also visit Aranhil, I'd like to personally invite him to our wedding ... other than that, though, I don't know of anyone or anywhere I need to visit."
She looked up at him anxiously. "Unless you know of someone?"

Tinuviel smiled at them all. "It is a great pleasure to meet you all," she said warmly. "I have been hearing stories about you from my brother and I have to admit, I have been looking forward to meeting you for quite a long time."
Earendil chuckled. "You make it sound like that's all I talk about."
Tinuviel giggled softly. "At times," she agreed. "But do not worry, we all know why that is."

Yukito grinned from ear to ear, Tinuviel reminded him a lot of Luthien. Though in a way he shouldn't have been so surprised by that.
"Thank you, I've heard from Lin that you both been wanting to meet more of the family."
"And a lot of the family that is..." Yue murmured thinking about who else was running around in the castle as they spoke, "Dinner is going to be an interesting affair."

Lore shook his head, he didn't even need to think about that. He didn't really know anyone outside of Elnara's family and her one friend. So there was no worries that they might accidently miss someone.
"No, there is no one I can think of.. and I didn't really socialize unless introduced the last time I was here," he admitted sheepishly.

"Another event I wouldn't miss," Lin murmured.
She looked forward to dinner, she was pretty sure nothing could go wrong. Well that was the hopeful side of her talking, but she was pretty sure nothing was going to go wrong.

Elnara smiled and slipped her hand back into Lore's. "Then why don't we just enjoy the afternoon in peace?" she murmured. "Nako has sent out all of the letters, we just have to wait for people to start arriving."
And she led him out further into the garden.

Tinuviel laughed softly, though her eyes were what really showed her amusement.
"Yes ... I've been running into a few of them at a time," she told Yue and Yukito softly. "There seem to be more of them at every twist and turn ... and I thought Aunt Elnara had a lot of children."
She laughed again, a little more heartily this time.

Yukito coughed a bit, but he couldn't hide the grin that was forming on his face. It was really hard to do so, since he too found this very amusing on so many levels.
"I believe there are roughly twenty children," he told her, "Not including the nephews and nieces."
He laughed a bit, knowing that some would find this... probably not so surprising at all.
"So... only about six more than the last time I was here."

"Only he says...." Lin rolled her eyes at that.
She repress the urge to giggle, because they all knew it was going to be more than twenty if given the chance. There were still bets going around, even though Lin didn't take part.

Tinuviel laughed, more at Lin's sarcasm than Yukito's answer.
"The more the merrier," she smiled warmly. "And I'm sure it will help Aunt Elnara feel more at home while she's here. I know my father won't be helping on that score."
Earendil nodded, his eyes half lidded. "Yes, Father's ... still a bit stubborn on that score," he agreed. "Still. It will help that everyone else is here. Oh, Lin, I understand Celebor's here as well?"

"Yes," Lin replied.
She paused before looking up at Earendil. Lin couldn't help but wonder if Celebor was going to tell people about his mate.
"Which reminds me, he brought his daughter Aras along as well, along with Naida and Jair that's three Surprises here. It's been a while since we've had small people about."
Small people as being her at one point.
