| I write as the days grow warmer, asthe new life springs into existence; and beside the Anduin. My life has turned to calm, now I am home. Naught sends ill to my mind, and only my family are my concern. Nemben is growing tall, as I mentioned in a previous entry. Malliel is...troubled, I have noted. I fear the memory of her capture haunts her mind. But I can only offer guesswork, and the thoughts of my beloved are her own. Mithon is notably absent. I wonder if he had returned to Eriador to be with his wife. Perhaps he has done so, or perhaps he intents to make haste here soon? I cannot say. Regarding myself; I sit often in the glades and meditate. Since I last returned, alone, it was my custom; and offered my peace and solace in mind and body. I relish each moment, like a moment spent with my kin. |
