Of Peace, Entery Two



Entrey two, dated 3rd of August, Third Age of Middle Earth

It seems my family are doomed to sorrow and heart break It was the morning. I was just getting up, about to do my morning drills, when I heard a bang and a cry at my door. I took Courage and Honour and walked towards the door. When I opened it, my heart sank. It was Bellewing, my niece...She was covered in dirt and blood and crying her soul out. I took her in within a heart beat and locked the doors and windows. I put her on the bed and got a bowl of water and started to calm her and asked what happened. My heart sank deeper. Bellewing and her lover, I will keep his name with me, were camping out in Chetwood. They took turns on watch out to make sure no bears or anything came up on them. When Bellewing opened her eyes, her lover was helded with a knife across his throat. She begged for the man not to kill him, pleaed him not to do it. "I'm sorry" her lover whispered, and the man opened his neck and threw him at her.... *The last words seemed to be in harder ink, as if the writier was pressing down on the quill*

The man was none other then my brother...I will keep his name forever to himself, he is no longer my brother! I let Bellewing rest for the day, and then we went for a walk around Bree. I took her to Oldstone Ruins and told her about the Kindom of Arnor that the Elves taugh me. I retold the tale to her, and then she asked me if I think she would become a great Captain. I set her on the path to inspire men to great acts. She has a talent that no other Ventris has ever had. She thinks much more then the rest of us. I hope in my letter entreys, I will be talking about how proud I am of her.
