Warden of Annúminas ~ Chief of Brigands ~ Part 4



Halfling ran to the farms at bullroarer's sward , and tywerd followed him on his horse . He then stopped and tywerd got off his horse and started talking to the worried hobbit .

 

" What is the problem , my hobbit friend ? "
 

" It's those brigands ! They have burnt down our homes and ruint our farms in dwaling !  Now they are attacking us again , please help us . " halfling said whilst crying.
 

" Do not worry any longer friend . I will help them " Tywerd mounted and rode towards dwaling .

 

As he got there he saw the hobbit houses on fire , and a couple of hobbits being attacked by the brigands. He rode with his horse towards them and knocked one out . Tywerd got off his horse , gave an angry look at the 3 brigands that were trying to kill the hobbits .
 

Brigands started attacking tywerd , he deflected one of brigands attack and kicked him from his back , knocking him on the floor . Then the other attacked him , he counter attacked the brigand and showed his sword through his heart. The one on the floor got up and sweeped his sword at tywerd , where he dodged it and killed him with a quick stab . The last one tried to flee after he saw what happened to his brothers , But before he could get away , tywerd threw a dagger to his neck , missing the dagger , and causing the brigand to escape .

 

" Well , I shouldn't have smoked that weed . "  tywerd said . He then put his sword back on its sheath and walk towards the hobbits he just saved .
 

One of the hobbits said  " Oh thank you ! Thank you ! "  to tywerd.  " You must help us !  That chief and his man ruined our lives . They killed our wives and burned our Farms. Please , Will you help us ? "
 

Tywerd strached his beards and asked  " Where is this ..  Chief .. "

" He commands his brigands within  Pearlina Gamgee's Residence . "

" Okay , I will be back . Stay here and help your wounded . "
 

Tywerd ran to  Pearlina Gamgee's Residence which was not far away from their camp . He killed the brigands guarding the residence and knocked down the door . The brigands inside the house were surprised . They were killed before they knew what was going on . 
 

When tywerd made it to the last room in the residence he saw the chief .     " I take it that you are the famous chief . "

" I am . And I take it that you are the fool who slained my man ." Chief stopped for a brief moment then started talking again " Doesn't matter . Your life ends here ! " said the chief with an angry voice . Chief pulled his sword out , attacked tywerd . Tywerd countered his first attack , and his second attack which he made with his rusted old sword . Right when chief tried to put his sword through tywerd's skull he countered it and stabbed him with the dagger he hides under his left arm. Chief fell on to the floor . And tywerd sheathed his sword , ready to get out and give the good news to the hobbits . But before he does he sees the chief holding a note in his hands . He opens the note and it understands that it has informations about brigands in it . That moment he remembers about the brigands he faced in bree , and how the man needed information . He takes the note , leaves the residence and goes to the camp of hobbits .
 

One of the hobbits says as soon as they see him " You made it back ! Is he dead ? Is it over ?? "

" Yes , my friend . It is over , you are safe from now on ."

" I thank you very much for your help . But .. There is nothing much we can give you ."
 

Tywerd gives a small smile to the hobbit and says " You are alive . That is the best reward you could give me "

 

All the hobbits got their hopes , and their homes back . They watched tywerd as he left to Evendim , by the mountain sides ...
