One day in the __th Age of the Sun

Thus Elentari the Lady of the Heavens, Queen of the Stars whispered to his ear, “should I bequeath upon you one day, in this age of the Sun, to go forth, beyond Belegaer the Western Sea, to the east, to the shores of the Mortal Lands, how should you spend it?”

So he, whose eyes kindled with light from the Stars, and whose walk is illuminated like the glow of the Moon, answered, “I, of a race whose happiness is greatest and sorrow is deepest have fled to the Undying Lands bearing a wound I thought could heal under the light of the Valar, but in vain.

Thus the ship of Cirdan I shall embark, and seek in the Mortal Lands, one from the line of the great Kings of the North, one whose brow the Yellow Face shines ever upon, for the hands of those spawned from Kings of old are the hands of a healer.”

There is no thousand-year ache a day couldn’t heal.

hehe.this one is self-composed, but the facts come from tolkien, like who's elentari, cirdan the shipwright, the hands of a king is the hands of a healer, belagaer the western sea etc.

if you were given a day to spend with after you die, who would you choose?
