Bíld son of Bóurr to Bóurr son of Bíld of Erebor, greeting and all filial love.

Restless, the Elf looks up from her carving and towards the west, to the fading sunlight in a sky of vibrant pinks and oranges.  After a long moment, the bow stave, unfinished, is placed aside with a sigh as she turns away from it and towards a table, on which rests an untouched glass of wine, a candle, and a little, long-neglected notebook, bound in leather and fastened with a cord.  After a long, thoughtful sip and a glance over the mountains in the distance, Nínimil picks up both the boo

Bíld son of Bóurr to Bóurr son of Bíld of Erebor greeting, and apology (as ever) for the lateness of this letter.
