Hwitnes opened her eyes slowly, as the first shafts of sunlight shone through the window.
Brinhelm was still beside her and breathed calmly in and out, a light smile was on his lips, while he slept.
Her thoughts wandered off and she tried to arrange all of the latest happenings in her mind..
"Please don't, stop it!" The weak voice of herself echoed in her head as she sees the faint smirk and the grabbing hands of all the men who took ad
vantage of her, again.
She had always been a pretty lass, in her youth, no doubt, but she wasn't strong enough to fight against those aroused men, who didn't care for what she said.
She felt the ache in her head again, when they slammed her to ground and saw her silent tears in the middle of the night, when no one was around her.
It had always been like that and she hated it. She hated her life, her body and her pretty face.

"This is not, how it has to be. Ya hate, and I want ya to use this hate. Take revenge and be the strong woman I see in ya!" The hooded man she met in the Prancing Pony seemed to have the answer to her problems. It was so easy to follow him and to become part of his group. No one liked her there and the only thing they offered was hate - and that's what she was able to return.
She became Hilda, a cute, innocent lass, who likes to drink ale and
who easily talk to others, for the day... and a piercing flame at night, covered by a mask and a dark cloak.
All who deserved it, got punished - they paid for what they've done.
Her time had come to reveal who she was.
It was an easy game to play.
She loved this new life - she
got what she wanted and took what she needed.
But time changed the circumstances.
It was another man, of course.
He was part of her group and she became his victim.
Several fights and at last a bite in her shoulder woke her up again - she would've to flee. She would've to stop what she was doing.
She would've to leave Bree behind her.
Brinhelm.
A light smile appeared on her lips as she looked down at him again, while he was still sleeping beside her.
Hasn't he always been honest to her?
And now, at the end of all this, he is still beside her.
She told him everything, the whole truth and he still said, that he likes her.
She'll thank him one day, for what he has done for her.
But for now she'll become a new person to the people of Bree -
A new day is dawning.
