The Birth of Lothorethiel.



Years ago, there was a small battle at the border of the Two regions of Eriador. There, a Fanhardil family kept fighting the enemies until they were forced to back up to Forochel and split. A young one, back then known as Aredwenn made her last stand near an ice boulder, awaiting the death that seemed to be the only possible ending of that situation. 
She fought bravely but at the end got thrown by the enemy and hit the boulder hardly, falling to the snows. It seemed that they will now just finish her off, but she remained alive with the assault ending in her victory. A victory that she couldn't remember. She laid there motionless, with snows slowly covering her then a man who approached her found her. he was thinking that he just found a body of another unfortunate traveller. It was a huge surprise when he found out that the woman was still alive. And the biggest one was still to come. 
He turned the woman to her back and looked at her closely, examining her and everything she had. "Unbelievable...." - Said Lothrandir, as that was the man's name. He continued to search through the woman's equipment then found a star emblem. He was shocked and then turned it. The name on it was no longer visible. "So... you are..." - He started to think about the girl and her fate. Lothrandir decided then to take her to the nearest camp and there, he took care of her. She woke up some days after that happenings. 
The man looked at her as she seemed scared a bit, of what happened and where she was. Then, he asked about her name and some basic things and she just shook her head, not knowing who she was. The ranger was troubled. They both stayed silent for a while, then he finally spoke. "In this case, I name you Lothorethiel and after the place you have been found in I name you The Fornenar, Northstar." - He said and then gave a star emblem back to the woman. She nodded and the Fornenar was born. 
Lothorethiel spent the next weeks on the training before she moved with two other ones of her kind, called Strider and Amdir to free the prisoners of the enemy's camp.
