An unexpected meeting between two old friends



It was a day just like any other and Aeruthuil tiredly sat just outside of camp tiredly watching the sun rise. He sighs, trying to keep his eyes open not wanting to bother his men right now; They had been going through a lot lately.
He shifts at the sound of what seemed to be a hawk, raising an eyebrow as he tried to find where the bird had landed. He narrows his eyes, finally locating the bird being sat on one of the tent with a small note attached to it's leg.

Aeruthuil grunts and slowly gets up, making his way over towards the hawk and detaches the note to right away read it.

 

''I have need to speak with you.
Meet me within Bree-town. I shall be around for three days. It is very urgent.

- Atharan''

 

His eyes widened at the handwriting, then he frowned and not long after he raised an eyebrow. If anything he didn't expect to hear of Sigfread, after all they had not seen each other in a very long time.
The news seemed dire indeed for the old Ranger needing to meet with him in Bree-Town of all places imaginable.
 

Aeruthuil sighs as he walks over towards the campfire, letting the note fall in to the flames before he watches the hawk fly off again. He rubs his eyes, pacing around wondering if he should wake any of the others but shakes his head. They needed their rest, and it would not be the greatest of ideas to have a massive family-like trip over to Town.
He slowly gathers his bag, puts on his jacket and hood before he starts to walk over towards Bree, questions as to what could possibly be this urgent for Sigfread to pretty much show up out of nowhere going through his head.

 

Within an hour the man arrived in Bree, looking around in the early morning hours. It was quiet, that was good at least. He walks over towards the old ruins, if anywhere it would be there where he was supposed to meet Atharan he thought to himself. Indeed, the moment Aeruthuil set foot in the ruins there was his old friend.
He chuckled to himself, shaking his head, ''The man had not aged a day..'' he thought to himself as he grinned over to the Ranger.
