The Summoning....

[Aragorn]

"Thank you for your men, Legolas but those Goblins and dragon might have been sent from Sauron's son. It would not be uncommon that he would dispatch small armies around since no one thinks this will be another Battle for MiddleEarth. Most would just think it as some kind of raid, or small war. As for The Grey Hevans, I'm too sure if they would help our cause. You can try and ask for aid, but I do not know if they would help or not." Elrond explained, and waited once more.

[Legolas]

"Indeed the Grey Havens are removed from here, but we have to try... We have no other choice... Have you been able to send word to Rohan yet?" Legolas said.

"I rule at the Mines of Moria, if you recall, my cousin was the leader there. We are doing well, I will see if I can bring in an army of dwarves to aid us, but I too can't spare much dwarf-power. Gandalf, remember the Balrog you fought? There have been many others like it and they frequently attack. I was looking into the matter, for the orcs and the denizens of Moria have reawakened as well. We are at constant battle and our numbers are dwindling as Dwarves flee. I think that this too, may be the work of Sauron's son." Gimli said.

[Aragorn]

"Indeed, it might be." Gandolf agreed. Elrond nodded his head in thanks and agreement to Gimli, as well.

"Legolas," Aragorn started. "Rohan has known for some time, but we have not called for their aide as of yet. Gondor has been able to hold the armies at bay, for now. Rohan is supplying us, really with food and water. Some men to come but they are not usually put into combat, except some few. But, Rohan does know, and if Gondor is ever in danger we do have our fire-lighting signal that we can send out, and they will come to our aide within the moment of seeing the fires."

Elrond began again. "Although forces are scattered, neutral, or turning sides, our stand against Sauron's son is quite formidable. We will need more help, of course-" Elrond was cut short as an elf - obviously of high heirachy - came bowing in and towards Lord Elrond, who summoned him forward.

The elf whispered into Elrond's ear, and Elrond gave a smile, thanked the elf - in elfish, of course - and sent him back on his way.

"Well, we have some more good news, the trolls from many mountains have turned against their former leader, and allies, of Sauron's son and have decided to either go neutral, or join us!" Elrond said with happiness. "This is indeed a great victory, seeing as how the trolls have become grand in number and having them either with us or with no one is the best thing that could happen in a long time.
"Urakai still roam freely though and our most formidable opponent," Elrond reminded. "They have many numbers, as well and vastly organized with forces all over the place. We have word of them even being to the north, and west of the villages near and around where the little hobbits live. It seems as if we are surrounded, but we really aren't in most cases. Most of the forces are being driven back, destroyed, or captured. Some even give up and leave for good. Some join our cause, at times; but those are just men, not orcs and such. And, most of these advancing forces are surrounded by our troops." Elrond ended hoping this knowledge was of some good use, and he once again awaited more questions, and such.

[Legolas]

Legolas looked at Elrond curiously.

"Uruk-hai surrendering? That is not like them, they never surrender. They are the most intelligent and deadly of Sauron's forces, aside from Balrog's and Trolls. Something doesn't feel right, even the winds don't like this. Trolls as well? This seems very coincedential. I can't but doubt their motives Lord Elrond." Legolas said, "Which armies do you know to be neutral currently?" He added.

[Aragorn]

"Mostly armies that are furthest away from Gondor, and Mordor. Like The Shire Folk, for example. But, yes I too questioned the motives of those uruk-hai surrending, and many of the others surrending, but its not like they're trying to inside our allies' lines, sicne they already are, pretty much. Like I said, everyone is surrounded on all fronts, by all possible enemies, and friends. No one really has the advantage right now...." Elrond trailed off.

[Legolas]

"I feel treachery on the winds Lord Elrond. Sauron's forces never surrendered. I am sure that you recall the War of the Ring. Perhaps this is a ruse to make us
let our guard down. I don't trust it, we should investigate this matter and try to find deciet within Sauron's ranks." Legolas said.

"Aye, Uruk-hai do not know how to surrender Elrond." Gimli said, sharpening his axes.

[Aragorn]

"Well, unless you have no more questions you may be off and do your own bidings for this war. Gain allies, raise moral, defeat enemies, being an end to Sauron's son, and do whatever else you can too." Elrond said, thinking everything was answered and said. He stood up, but did not leave just in case of questions....

[Legolas]

"I can not seem to think of any more questions, Lord Elrond. We will do what we can." Legolas said, "But we need to find an angle to attack from, Sauron's forces usually greatly outnumber our own." Legolas said.

"Aye, but I have a question Elrond. Do you have a name for Sauron's son?" Gimli said.

[Aragorn]

"Oh, dear me, I had forgotten to mention his name the whole time?" Elrond said in disbelief, as he looked at the others around him. Some nodded, but most looked on awaiting the answer. "They call him, Antigo Senhor Quem Traga Morte, or for short, or common name to those who do not serve under him, he is called, Antigo Régua."

[Legolas]

"I see, so we need to work on a plan of attack. I will begin to orchestrate a new Fellowship. Our goal is to bring back the ones who have gone to the Grey Havens. We are going to need their help to defeat Antigo." Legolas said, standing up.

[Aragorn]

"What do you suggest, than, Legolas?" Aragorn said, also standing up, and speaking for the first time in a long time, as he was listening and taking in every word that Lord Elrond spoke of.

Lord Elrond began to walk off, down the steps, with some of his colleagues, as they felt their job was best done, now.

[Legolas]

"We must form a new Fellowship and journey to the Grey Havens, where some of our old allies still remain." Legolas said.
"Do you have a couple of trustworthy soldiers of Gondor that will follow you? It would be good to form a Fellowship similar to the original...Yet I want to make sure no one will betray us." Legolas said.

[Aragorn]

"I do not think anyone in Gondor would betray their king. I will travel there and bring five of my finest warriors, sound good? They will journey with us to these Grey Havens, and you shall get some of your elven brotheren to help, as well?" Aragorn asked, as he began to walk off, as he knew there wasn't much time to spare....

[Legolas]

"Yes, Aragorn, that is a very good plan. Let's depart for Mirkwood, since it is closer to here than Gondor is..." Legolas said, looking for confirmation from his old ally....

[Aragorn]

"Than, off we go than." Aragorn agreed, and he went to the stables where his horse was kept, found him well rested, and nurished. He noticed Legolas getting atop his own horse, and the two set off to....
