The Way Back Home: Epilogue



What to do know?

There are a lot of things left untold in my story. Like what did I do after this all, and what happened to the Silverguard. In this story I will give you answers to a few of these mysteries.

After my journey to the Iron Hills I got to know my family really well. I also learned (I did not know this before) that we had a tradition of weaponsmiths, and that the talent of the craft "was in my veins", or so they told me. My family asked if I would also join the Silverguard and serve the family. I chose not to, for I was never meant to lead men into battle. And above all I had already found my place. A kinship called Durin's Folk I serve. I got to know these fine dwarrows in Ered Luin, Thorin's Hall, before I left. I am the zokhoso of craftsmanship there.

I stayed with my family for a long while, getting to know them, at last. I also bought a house there. I don't visit it often but I do when I can. A few months later I travelled back to my kinship in Ered Luin. They said I made them proud, with my skill in the craft and just for being there. My family understood why I was leaving again, that they had brought this upon them selves. I left this time I got an escort and an escort with the finest ore and weaponry. The journey back was uneventful and long but I'm back again now. 

This​ was the epilogue of my story.
