My orders came through about two weeks ago to prepare myself to join the war. I have to wait for another letter to tell me where the hell I'm going but the wait is killing me. I'm proud to have a brother like Quiz, I hope I survive this all so I can return and be with him. My love Lyndiel, is a smart and beautiful woman but I have yet to tell her of what is going on. I fear how she may react to the news, we've only just declared our love for each other and now this happens.
I went to Rivendell to see it's beauty I spoke to two elves that are siblings the brother Elloen told me that if I survived the war I could stay in Rivendell. I'd like that a lot the place is very peaceful and the sister Elvealin taught me how to play the harp. It is a wonderful instrument very calming. Perhaps Mirkwood next? Although from what I've heard the elves there aren't very welcoming but that might be a dwarven rumour, who knows?
Hmm, perhaps a spot of hunting will take my mind off things...
