Escape
The mission went bad...very bad. We were ambushed...by men, I think. They dragged us around for what felt like months; bound and blinded. I have no idea how much time has passed.
I was able to loosen my bonds gradually, over many days until I had loosened them enough to slip them off.
Once I heard the guard change, I was able to finally get free of my bonds and also remove Kirseth's.
We ran as far and as fast as we were able. We have no weapons to fight.
I am writing this in the middle of nowhere as we make camp. My hope is that this journal may be found if the worst is to happen.
We are starving and exhausted from marching across Middle-Earth on little to no sleep and scraps of food.
Kirseth has spotted lights in the distance, we will make our way to them, through these marshlands.
The only things I have left are my uniform, this journal and the brooch that I have managed to keep secret.
