Ede walked out of the Pony. Alcohol does nothing but make you liable to violence, I should know I was abused for 22 years, she thought angrily. She had tried to help Furley with his problems, but she wasn't sure what she could do anymore. She wasn't sure how to help....he blurted out things, he let his anger get the better of him....it scared her...it's going to kill him one of these days.
She headed to Goosberry; she needed to cool off so she didn't say something she would regret. She was going to blow off some steam, then come back and be the supportive wife, and help Furley with his problems face on! She rode past farms and the cemetery. She said under her breath, "Rest in peace Mama." She rode until she neared an orc camp she knew well. She looked at it with hard eyes, maybe she could get out some frustration for good and dispose of some orcs. She dismounted Gooseberry under a tree, then ventured into the camp quietly. But as she wandered in she couldn't stop thinking of how angry Furley looked and how bad she felt about the whole thing. She looked at her wedding ring and felt a tear cloud her eyes..... Then she heard something, it was undeniably black speech and then she felt pain, then everything went black.... Her last thought was.. Oh Furley, forgive me.
