Olwe turns to Comet. "I shall take my court and depart now, King Olwe of the Teleri," she says.
He looks deep into Comet's eyes. "Nor will he abandon Comet, " he murmurs. She nods in response. Olwe lifts her hands up to his lips and kisses each. "Thank you, " he whispers. He watches her become queen, not his Beloved Cousin, once more. She nods in response.
"Be well now, my Lord," she answers. "The world may be a dark place, but we shall be part of its light."
She smiles and answers, "Yes."
He holds her hands tight. "Be well, Sweet Beloved, who once tugged my hair, and then my heart."
Comet laughs. "Farewell," she says. Like that, she was out of his reach and gliding back up the ramp.
Dominique Darkwatch laughs softly. Powers Constantine smiles as he realizes the King is healed. Olwe gives the Lady Llyra a small look and smile. "Thank you , Lady Llyra."
"Farewell, Olwe of the Teleri. I did not let go." She smiles and follows her Queen.
Ivy Paderborn smiles to the King and bows her head as she prepares to follow Comet. Olwe inclines his head in answer and then turns a smile to Lady Ivy. Powers Constantine awaits the Queen to escort her home. Dominique Darkwatch smiles to Llyra and Ivy. Malakyte Thorne moves toward her queen and then stops also to await Llyra and Ivy.
"After you, Lady Malakyte," says Powers.
Olwe extends a hand up and waves farewell. Ivy Paderborn turns again and smiles wrmly to Dominique, whispering her gratitude. Dominique Darkwatch smiles at the king who now looks very healthy and whole again. He bows and takes her hand, squeezing. "My thanks to you, Sweet Cleric of Eru. "
Dominique Darkwatch squeezes in return and beams. "You are most welcome, my king."
"Alqualonde will ever be a place of welcome to you."
Dominique Darkwatch smiles. "And if ever you have need, I am only a swan ride away." She smiles and makes her way up the ramp.
Elwing smiles and gives her thanks to Dominique for her part in the restoring of her Uncle. Dominique Darkwatch looks out the door slightly concerned, hoping Lu has escaped the notice of the dragons. Olwe watches her for a moment. Then he smiles.
"She is fine," he says, noting her searching gaze out the doorway. "She is having a snack in the harbor. Lord Osse is feeding her leftover fish."
Dominque giggles.
Apakewne speaks, stepping out from a corner of the upper floor. "I'm glad those fish aren't going to waste."
Olwe blushes. "Good thing he is a Maia. His language is rather...colorful."
Elwing chuckles. Estelin moves forward and adds, "Yes, there were a lot of fish there. They will go well with the noodles."
Olwe looks up at the sound of Estelin's voice and gives a meaningful smile. Elwing looks around unaware of what noodles are and why they are of significance.
Apakenwe looks at the King and the cleric. "Surely you both want food and rest."

Dominique Darkwatch looks at the lady at the top of the stairs, waves at Elwing, and nods. "Indeed, while I do not think I can eat, I do feel the need for rest."
Estelin nods in agreement. "Let us assist you to the castle," he says, smiling. "No noodles? Suit yourself."
Olwe slowly walks up the ramp to Estelin's side."I would be honored," he said. He gives a small nod to Estelin's sister. And again, between two Valar, this time again in disguise, he walks between them. This time, he returns to his fabled palace in his beloved home of Alqualonde.
