I have wandered Eriador but I have not seen every corner, every shadow in it's wake. I have yet to study it's sorrow and it's joy in depth. But it seems my own sorrow and anxiety has returned ot haunt me. I received a letter from home this day, the first one in years. While I am aware that Father has sent men to collect me before and bring forth my return. I do not know what his motivations at this moment are. His actions were never in love, so I cannot assume he has missed my presence. I am but a symbol an object to allow him to bask further in his title and authority. I cannot imagine that my departure bode well for his name. He claimed in the letter that without my presence; our neighboring Lord that I was sworn to wed. Would be forced to look for a match within the league of House Landgrave. Politics at it's finest. Countrymen they are but such a house has long been our rival. I wish to remain in Bree at this time. While it cannot compare to the beauty of Imladris or the stalwart justice of my homeland. It has become a home away from home. I have seen few old faces. Save Kristophor he still deems me a friend after all this time. Even after I had went my own way, if only Caliko had been at his side as well. I must admit.. I am afraid. I feel as if there is a sudden shift in the wind.
