I think in that situation it would definitely be feasible, I had Nerade ruling over Gondor in the previous iteration of this rp xD]]

Iszak Orgilion | 25 | Male | Human | Neutral Good?
Iszak stands a little taller than most men at 6'1", with a large stature, broad shoulders and pale skin with a hint of dusty olive tone to it. His hair is a dirty blonde/gingerish colour, and is kept short although can get into his eyes, and he does keep some facial hair grown out but overall stays well-groomed (at least when he has the luxury to do so). A tall oblong-shaped face with rounded cheekbones, a wide jaw, narrow monolided eyes almost give him an always-content and kind look that if it weren't for the facial hair and tall stature he might be mistaken for much younger than he is. Normally he wears very simple and functional clothing, but he really likes wear a brown furred coat that possibly the nicest piece of clothing he owns. | Iszak is a loyal friend and has a reputation for being a good person but he's distant, duplicitous, and doesn't seem to have any strict moral code. He comes across as friendly, kind, and selfless, but he's also secretive and easily capable of lies, deception, or any manner of shady things if it serves either his whims or to help anyone he considers a friend, he just makes sure not to be caught doing it. He picks his battles very carefully so these cases tend to be few and far between. Social and rarely on his own but again not very open with other people, though extremely reliable and resourceful he's often the quiet tag-along friend to a group. He's keenly observant, makes decisions carefully, and persuasive. | Archery, skilled with bows but often carries a crossbow instead, also skilled in hunting and navigation. | Born and raised in Gondor but has some Easterling ancestry. | Other ** | Morior

Iszak bought some supplies from merchants as he was leaving Minas Tirith, mainly food and rations for his long trip, which he put into a bag he carried over one shoulder. As he walked down the wide street skirting the outer wall of the city, keeping off to the one side and headed for the gate, he was silently not looking forward to the long trek over wide open fields spanning beyond Minas Tirith without a horse, as it would be many miles before he reached the treeline. With a crossbow tied to his belt and enough bolts to spare, it was obvious to any on-looker he was setting out for a long hunt.

I've returned!]]
I feel xD I'll probably be on that late as well lol]]
Teonvan had just arrived at the gate to the city, shield slung over one arm and sword at his side. A few other knights were standing nearby, suited up in the same manner as him. He slung a saddle over his horse and fit the bridle on before going around to check on the others in the group. He had been left as the one looking after the White City while the royal siblings were in the North, and he was going to make sure the city stayed safe. His idea of doing this: extra patrols, like the one which he was currently getting ready for. "Remember to keep extra eyes on the borders while we are out. Especially in the East, we've heard rumors of the peoples stirring in that direction," he told the others.

Iszak moved off to the side as more people came in through the gates. He nodded to a couple of the guards posted there, at least one of them he recognized. He cast a glance back at the group of knights preparing for... something... he didn't really know what knights did most of the time. He overheard the orders and words of caution shouted out by one of the knights and made a mental note not to stray too far East. Sounded like they were leaving for patrol, he looked back at them again and slowed his pace, wanting to see which direction the patrol would go in, so that he could avoid them as he hunted. A patrol of heavily armoured knights would scare all the game out of an area.

They areee xD She even rolls around in her sleep xD]] Earwen nodded thoughtfully. "I never got quite as close to them as you did, I think.... However, if Melia hasn't changed since we last saw her, I figure she'll show up in front of us at the most unexpected of times. She seemed to like doing that," she said with a chuckle. "We could try visiting Mordor..." Do you wanna skip ahead to Minas Tirith or nah?]] I love me a good skip)) Minsy stared at the nearing city. Her eyes twinkled with awe and nostalgia as she had old memories wash over her. She thought back to what Earwen had said on their way here. "We should go south to Mordor afterwards." |

Eldacar smiled at the King, "I'm sure you'll find Arnor up to standards." He looked around the hall, "The people of the North have worked hard to rebuild their ancestors homes." He looked at him more serious as he spoke of the East, "Have you spoken to Dale at all?" He asked.

Meant to have this up sooner, sorry guys >_< Hooray internet problems  ]] Minas Tirith"There it is... the White City. It's been so long since I've seen it," Earwen breathed as the pair got closer. It looked better than ever to her eyes in the afternoon sunlight, and she could already hear the muffled murmur of the castle town up ahead. She turned to Minsy. "What would you like to do first? Search for our friends?" she asked. Teonvan kicked off the ground and mounted his horse, and the others in his patrol followed suit. He glanced around the trickle of people coming in and out of the gates and happened to catch sight of Iszak. Judging by the supplies the man was carrying and how he was armed, Teonvan guessed he wasn't just heading out for a pleasant nature walk. He brought his horse up alongside the man and called down to him. "If you are heading out on a journey of some sort, I would advise against heading too far east," he said. "There is a good chance the area will be getting progressively dangerous." He paused. "Also, if you are without a horse, we can offer you one. The barracks have plenty to spare." ~~~ ArnorNerade had wandered a few steps from the two men, taking her time in looking around the hall. She couldn't help but smile a bit more, it was all quite impressive to her. Daerion gave a slight nod. "Yes, I sent out a messenger to Dale the day before Nerade and I left to travel here," he answered. "I expect to hear the full report as soon as we return. If there is anything new in the report, I will be sure to send a messenger to Arnor as well." |

lol you're good)) Ooooh I found out Toyotas are making Corolla Hatchbacks I just found my next car  )) Minsy's eyes sparkled as she gazed at the city. "Do you think Nerade would be here today?" Her heart seemed to soar. Oh how nice it would be to reconnect with everyone after so long... A soft smile touched her lips |

Nice xD]]
"I hope so," Earwen replied.
"No, I am afraid she is not in town today," a voice said from behind the pair of elves. "She won't be for several days."
Earwen spun on her heel and her eyes widened. The long black hair, the eyes, the staff... "Melia! You're in Minas Tirith?!" she exclaimed.
"Well, considering this is where I am standing, I would have to say yes to that," Melia replied. "The royal siblings are on a business trip up North, and I have been called to help look after things."

if only I had 23k to drop on a brand new car )) MELIA! and the plot thickens)) A huge grin overtook Minsy's face, brightening it. "My word, it's been a while. How are you?" Minsy felt like a child that had been put in to a bakery and allowed to buy anything she wanted...pretty much a very happy, giddy feeling that made her want to dance around |

"Hopefully it is nothing more then rumors blown out of proportion." He said looking at the King, "You'll find the North has been doing rather well. Orc raids from the Misty Mountains have been few lately. Seem to have scared most of them away for the time being."

Rip xD]]
Hehehe~ I've been waiting for a good place to drop her in xD]]
Melia tilted her head to one side questioningly and placed a hand on her hip. "Has it really?" she asked, looking at them a moment before laughing. "I am doing quite well, thank you for asking. Middle Earth still manages to keep me entertained, despite the many years I have walked these lands." She brushed away a long strand of black hair. "And what of you both? How is the Forest doing these days?"
"It is very green, and very peaceful," Earwen said simply.
~~~
"I do hope so as well," Daerion replied. He frowned slightly after hearing about the orc raids, but it faded as Eldacar went on. "That is good to hear." He let out a sigh. "Hopefully there will be a day soon when the raids will cease completely."
Nerade suddenly looked over at the two. Eldacar had said the magic words. "Ooh, orc raids? That sounds like fun," she said, joining the two again.

"The forest and surrounding lands are quiet. There is no stirring from Mordor, no rumble in the wind. The birds speak of nothing but plenty of food and happiness." Minsy closed her eyes briefly. "Can't say I remember a time of such peace."

"That is good to hear, we can only hope that it lasts," Melia said with a small nod. "You know, even though I have seen it with my own eyes it is quite strange to see Mordor become so peaceful. Mind you, there is still a giant fiery mountain there, but everything else is just dust... Quite the stark contrast from Minas Tirith."
Earwen raised an eyebrow, as she could almost detect a wistfulness in the Maiar's tone - and not to mention her last phrase about Eryn Lasgalen. However, she let it go as she could not help but agree with her.

"It's almost boring." Minsy suddenly began to laugh. "We had all this action, excitement, struggle, commandry! Now all I do is stroll the woods and listen to forest gossip. There is never any urgency or something new. It's all the same bland stuff. Is it terrible for me to think like that though? I don't want to go back to the battles and the fear but I want something more." She sighed

Sorry for poofing so long >_<]]
"The feeling is not foreign to me," Melia admitted. She looked between the two elves and gave a knowing smile. "I assume this is why the two of you are in Minas Tirith right now? Because a certain someone got bored?"
Earwen nodded, and pointed to Minsy with a laugh. "It's her fault."
Melia chuckled. "Well, you're not wishing doom and destruction upon anything so I would say no, it is not terrible. Why do you think I'm here instead of Mordor? Believe you me, there is even less over there than up in Eryn Lasgalen now."
Melia you have no room to talk]]

I've been pretty sick these past couple days anyway so I've been doing nothing but sleeping DX)) Minsy snickered. "Yes, I kinda dragged Earwen out here with me, I admit." Minsy sighed. "So have you been in contact with anyone recently, other than Nerade?" Excitement bubbled in Minsy's bones as she thought about seeing all of her old friends once again |

Oh no! :c Hope you feel better soon!!]]
Melia tapped lightly at her chin, humming softly as she reached back through her memories. "Well, Teonvan is still here, in fact we just passed him on his way out for a patrol," she said with a chuckle, pointing over at the group of mounted knights. "Other than the group here, and a few others I doubt you know, I have not seen anyone else, no," she answered.

I've been on antibiotics for the past few days but I also have a weak immune system so it's hard for my body to fight stuff DX but on a plus side I woke up this morning not feeling too bad so I'm taking that as a good sign ^.^))
Minsy nodded slowly. "Then I guess we are just gonna have to hunt everyone down." Minsy elbowed Earwen playfully, but in truth she was only half kidding. After all, what else did she have to do with her life other than sitting around in trees in the woods?

That's good to hear ^^]]
Melia glanced at the two of them and let out a chuckle. "You'd best be leaving now if you want to catch Nerade before she leaves the North," she said.
Earwen leaned forward a little. "Or we could stay here until she and the King return," she chimed in with a laugh as well. She then glanced over her shoulder at the patrol on their way out the gates. She'd have to remember to find Teonvan once he returned later.

Minsy nodded vigorously. "Oh yes! How I would love to walk the streets of Minas Tirith, with nothing better to do than wander aimlessly through the town." Her eyes sparkled and she bounced eagerly on the balls of her feet. It felt like centuries had past since she last saw the city with her own two eyes. Her heart yearned to be there again as waves of memories engulfed her with all that had happened

Melia let out a soft laugh and gestured out to the path leading up to the city on the mountain. "Then I welcome you to Minas Tirith, my esteemed guests~" she announced.
Earwen smiled and gave a small curtsy. "Why thank you, Oh Great Melia, for your most generous welcome," she replied.
Melia glanced at Earwen then to Minsy before placing a hand on the latter's shoulder. "I do not remember Earwen being capable of sarcasm before," she whispered to Minsy, a teasing smirk on her face.
