Amorith's diary. page 9



I met the little group of elfs in Imladris outside the Homely house... I also saw a little party of elfs from my own house Vanimar. Lord Veryacano were present, and I tried to avoid him.. I didn't want him to see me, Lord Earinlin is never too far from his Tûr and I didn't want him to think I was present with the intention to see him..
My agenda was totally different.. I was joining the elfs from Loth-I-Lonnath on their journey home to Lindon. I wanted to join them as company.. I had to see Lithia Edelglow, I needed to speak to this Lady that often see angles of a situation that I don't see..

We rode up the road towards High-Moor. Warband of Imladris were amongst us to watch the road for us..I felt safe and comfortable. My horse Limroth walked proudly after the other horses in straight line and I believe she felt some kind of importance. The journey started quite idyllic and peaceful I was pleased when my friend Galvathalion joined us under way, I overcomed my shyness and we talked together..
The rain was very welcoming, it made the air chill and it was quite refreshing...I felt like it washed away my sorrows I left behind in Imladris...But at same time I couldn't help look back. I already missed the place and the further I left my friends in Imladris and Lord Earinlin, the more I felt this emptiness filled my heart.

The day started to bleed in the water and the blue evening approached. We rode down the green path to the mighty Ford of Bruinen.. Loth-I-Lonnath did a little ceremony...It was beautiful.. It was like they blessed the water.. Like they wanted the nature to keep an eye on us and hoped for a peaceful path in front of us.. And protect the road behind us...Warband of Imladris had to leave us.. We were on our own now...
Out of nowhere a young Lady approached us.. She was talking to Lord Telpecallo for a while and suddenly she was one of our company.. I suppose she wanted to join us as company a part of the road.. I am not sure if she were going to Lindon aswell...

Some of our companions were from the Grey Guards, and I got the impression that the Lady present from that house liked the trees just as I did.. I didn't ask her where she was from, but I suspected she was going home aswell as my friends in Loth-i-Lonnath.
The road was peaceful.. I forgot I was in Trollshaws and Bruinen Gorges. I have heard awful stories about this place.. about dreadful and foul beasts.. But it seemed we were blessed and nothing interrupted us..
It was not raining anymore either and the warm wind surrounded us, like it was protecting us.. The stars started to appear on the sky..


Lord Telpecallo announced to us it was time to camp for the night and he found a place with lots of Trees, a lovely place for the horses to camp.. The Tree-branches would protect them if it started to rain again.. Limroth seemed happy amongst her companions, and I gave all the horse's apples and some water..
A kind Lord from the Grey Guards, as I understood was called Eleinin, made a campfire, and Lord Aearandir started to prepare food.. The Ladies started to play soothing songs.. The echo from the tones made a magical atmosphere.. And suddenly I felt I was home again...

After a while some men approached us.. They didn't seem happy, theystarted to ask questions about reason we were there.. I didn't quite understand what happened.. But they didn't seem dangerous though, so I let the Lords handle the situation.. I needed to rest, so I walked back to my horse Limroth.. And found a place to rest...

When the dawn appeared and the flowers blossomed and the bird started to sing again.. I left my company for a little while. I needed to be alone for a little moment. So I took a walk very close to The Last bridge and looked at the lovely river Mitheithel shining like silver. I was pondering about recent incidents for many hours.. Suddenly someone approached me.. I turned.. it was a shock when I saw who it was...
