Tinsith's diary; Captured, part I



Dear journal,

It's the second day I'm stuck in this house. It's already getting clogged up in here. All the windows are closed and locked, just like the metal door. I just probaly start from the begining.

It was nightime, and I was looking at the stars. I was in front of the tree beside the lake south of Bree. I saw a traveler pass by on his horse. I didn't know yet that he would cause me trouble. I looked back up at the stars, thinking about my brother. I then heard hooves coming from beside me. The traveler had stopped his horse beside me and dismounted.

'Are you Tinsith?' He asked.

'Yes, how do you know who I am?' I replied.

'I heard you have had troubles with a man who called himself ''Hunter'' in the past.' He said.

'How do you know that? Who are you anyways?'

He ignored my questions. 'I need you to tell me what happened with him.' He ordered. That was something I didn't want to share.

'But he disappeared!' I exclaimed.

'No he didn't.' He said. That made no sence! Shouldn't I have noticed by now?

'What if I don't want to tell you about what happened?' I said.

'You have no choice.' He replied. That finished putting me on my guards. I pulled out my sword and dagger and got into a defencive position. I didn't dare to do the first move.

I forget what happened during the fight, being unconcious can do that to you. I do remember that he was good with his halberd and managed to punch me in the face a couple of times. At the end, I felt my strength leaving me. I noticed that his leg was hurt. I had a chance to escape. I ran to the first place that came to my mind. There was a camp to the east, well hidden from view. I turned and sprinted to my right. I didn't even turned to see if he was following me. I arrived at the camp, sat on a log near an unlit campfire and fainted.
