Your Words are Cruel

Estarfin looked down from the stars, watching the dark waves instead.  'You speak cruelly, though I do not believe there is malice behind your words.' he said. 

Danel turned to him, confused and wounded by his accusation. Never would she willingly speak or act cruelly to him. 

"How so?" she uttered.

'You spoke of slaying babes in arms, the most innocent of us all....'


'Aye...' she said softly.


Estarfin's voice trailed away...

It is his Choice to Make.

'I do not think Parnard understands our warnings," Estarfin said as he looked out over the bay.


I nodded my head. I thought the same. "I do not know how the sea longing affects the Nandor or Avari, only that many of the Noldor and Sindar feel the call. It is a dangerous choice for him to make. But if he does decide to come here, I will not stand in his way."

Estarfin turned his head slightly, to watch a ship in the distance. 


"No, it is his choice to make." he added.

And so it was.

Returning to Ered Luin, Danel and Parnard pass by the camp at some distance. Tolbold seemed to think there were about fifty Men still there, though he was more precise about stolen food. The Elves can see movement, but also that the ruins go across the hilltop for some distance.

Talking with Tobold

Danel wants to reassure the Hobbit villagers they have nothing to fear from her and her friends. Parnard escorts her, and fortunately is on fine form with his persuasive words when they encounter Assistant Shirriff, Tolbold Tatersfield. The Hobbit claims he has several armed Bounders hidden nearby, with their arrows trained on the elves. They are looking for the blood covered Dark Rider who left a pile of bodies for them to tidy up. But Tolbold also tells them the Brigands steal their food and laundry. Any help on that front will be appreciated.

“Are you recovered from our hunt?” Danel asked Parnard as she watched him sharpen a long knife.

“Recovered? Of course. Swan-hoof is being well-looked after in the stables; we have plenty of meat to last throughout this season; and friend Estarfin seems to be his old self again. All is well!"

Danel made a tight, strained smile. “You are right that Estarfin is much like his old self again. I do think this place is doing him good."

For me, the problem with Men is straightforward.

Estarfin hates them!

"This filth cannot be allowed to roam where they will," declared Estarfin, his bright eyes scanning the surrounding hills searching for more enemies. Wordlessly, Parnard held out his wineskin, an offering designed to distract and placate. 

"No, we shall need clear heads to clear this nest of vermin out," said Estarfin.

(This story continues from  Return to Cuivienan )

 

We sat under the stars awhile, drinking in the light of their memories. After some time Estarfin moved seemingly absent mindedly to tighten the straps on his pauldron. Our converse on Cuivienan finished for the moment, my thoughts had moved on to another matter.

They had planned to hunt for boar or deer that day. There would be a need for food that would last until midsummer at the least. A boar hunt? That was before they came across a small surprise on the edge of the Halfling's lands.

Danel watched as Parnard dived under the water and came again to the surface in the middle of the Huntsman's belt. It was too much for her. She too would swim in the stars reflected in the lake.
