 Elros, the first king of Nùmenor had his throne in the capital city Armenelos who dwelled close to Meneltarma and the haven of Rómenna. If there is any problems or anything you want to talk with the king about, you can find him here and he will help you. Elros sits often on his throne but sometimes he is also on travels, when he isent there he often give controll to his wife or the steward. |

"Papa?" Tindómiel came in and bowed, sitting by his throne. "I'm eighteen now. Can I not learn to fight like Vardamir>" She asked once again, her arms on the trone, looking up to Elros hopefully.

Elros was sitting on his throne when he suddenly saw his daughter came in and spoke. She wanted to learn and fight, but she was a lady and was not supose to learn about fighting skills. He looked apon her with a sighed and spoke load so she could hear him." But you are a lady of Nùmenor, you are not supose to fight. Even how old you are I will not let you learn and fight, war brings only sadness and fear to everyone." He rose up from his throne and looked at her with an interesting look." I know you wish to learn but, I can not let you do so. I am sorry." He stroke her cheek as he spoke and waited on her reply.

"But Papa! I do not do well in all the homebody things of a lady. Surely you can not expect me to grow up with three brothers and not want to join them. I can never go on adventures or travels all because I'm a girl, and it's not fair Papa!" Tindómiel argued, she really wanted to be able to join her brothers. Since she was sixteen, it had been all about properness, courtsies, sewing, danging and preparing to take care of ones husband. She did not even wish to marry, despite her many suitors. She was thankful that her father had not yet forced her to marry, even if he did make notion of it on occasion.

"Thats the way of a woman, of course you want to join your brothers but you are a princess and your job is to stay home and take care of others. If you have problems dealing with things at home then I can asure you our servents will help you to become great in such things. Remember, you are a lady and your place is here." He took her hand in his as he looked at her with a calm look. Elros knew she wanted to be as her brothers but he could not allow that since she was a lady and a lady`s job was to stay home and take care of everybody else.

"No Papa! Why does a lady's place have to be at home? Why can we not go out free. I feel like a bird Papa, caged in this place, all I want is to be free, to soar above the clouds. Why will you not grant me that? If I started a trend, of women having their own mind, then maybe a lady's way will become the will to be free. Everything is about cooking, and sewing, cleaning and being able to tend to one's family. But if that was what a woman did all day, would it not be a bore? Why would any man wish for their wife to be that way? It makes no sense Papa!" She said, desperate;y trying to get him to allow her to fight, to join her family.

"Hm...I know it is hard for you but you have learn it somehow. A womans way is not the easiest path and so isent the mens either, you are lucky who dont need to fight. The men are the people who risks their life for your sake, the lady`s and children is the future and as lady you have to do as you been told to do." He held her hands tight in his as he spoke and looked at her."Now, do as your father tells you and do not think more about this matter. Your place is at home and your family."

"But Papa..." Tindómiel desperately wished to argue but what could she say? Her father akways gave her that look, it said he was done arguing and yet, it was like a calm sensitive face, and she could not fight it. She did not wish to stay at home, and she did not want to marry. "Papa, my teacher says that at my age, most girls father's marry them off. You aren't going to send me away to be some man's wife are you?" She asked worriedly.

Elros looked at her and sat back down onto his throne as he listened her speak, she was worrid about her life and he could understand that. A womans life was difficult but everyone had to learn to handle it. He looked at her with a little smile because he loved her daughter and the things she said made him think."Its true that the parents marry their daughters at this age yes, but your time will come when it is ready."

"So you will not make me leave?!" She asked, a smiling appearing on her lips. Her heart began thumping once more since it did not seem quite so stale anymore, relived he was not sending her away with one of the many suitors that would come.

"Not yet, but I am probably sure that it wont be long before lords will come and ask for you to marry." He said calm and rubbed his cheek while he looked at her with a gently look, if any people came and was perfect for their daughter then they would marry her away but he would like her to love the man back. Elros wasnt as cruel as any other lord would done, he loved his daughter and family and wanted the best for them.

Tindómiel looked down and sighed. "I think I shall be out in the gardens Papa." She said then left, letting her hair down so as to hide her expression of worry.

Elros looked at his daughter and nodded politly." Yes...alright, take to you later my child." He smiled a little and watched her leave. He hoped she would learn about being a woman later in times, cause her place was with her friends and family at home.

Hatsumomo has managed to get her way inside of the palace she had been outside of the throne room for a while now, listening to the arguement between Father and Daughter it seemed....Hatsumomo agreed with most the king said and had hidden when the daughter left...her bare feet brushed gently as she moved across the tiles...

Elros sat on his throne as he saw a elven woman entered his throne room, he smiled and spoke load." Greetings there elf, what is your bisniss here?" He asked couriously as he watched her with a gently look. The guards stood at the side of Elros as he sat there on this throne, watching the elven woman.
