Mithdirith-i-Lonnath

Our pleasant stay here in Rivendell draws slowly to a close, in a few days' time we shall be on the road again divested of most enjoyable safety the Vale provides to all who come without ill intent. I think I have grown much accustomed to this fact in past weeks, perhaps too much to my liking. I have also noticed many of us becoming softer, irresistible to all that pampering Imladris offers. On the other hand it is definitely a well-earned rest everyone deserved after all we had been through past seasons.

The sea is wild today, roaring waringly at high tide, indomitable, immense and beautiful… oh, how I missed it… there were times especially during long watches on our recent journey to the east when I found myself dreaming of Belegaer, contemplating its beauty and greatness unsurpassable… now I feel more like being caught up in a dream but my mind reminds me gently that I can come tomorrow again to take delight in its magnificence… it is good to be home again.
