I met my father on the way and told him everything. He has agreed to go with me to the rescue of The Champion. We then followed all the way to the place where her trail led us. My father was following me silently. I had that feeling that he trusted my leadership somehow. I took cower behind a large rock to spy on the towers' defences and soon only issue around were the two nearby guards. We stayed silent to spy on them as we weren't sure if the Champion was still there. "That woman is a devil, she realy bite me..see" - Said the first guard showing his bit hand to the others. "hell, did she rip flesh off?" - The other one then asked. I motioned to my father that we should sneak up to them and take them out. And so we moved towards them in silence as they continued to talk. "Yeah I see a hole" - The first guard then answered. He didn't had to wait for the answer for long though. "Don't worry boss man beats blood out of her. But heck she is good looking." - The second one then said and as they were deep in conversation we moved even closer. We could smell the alcohol from them which made things even easier. We took them out in sync and by doing so there was nothing more between us and the tower's entrance. Soon, we were inside and I then looked around. We passed many dead bodies on the way. The hallway was empty, but we have heard voices coming from the main hall. We have approached the corners and observed the main room. In the hall were sitting at least seven men and on the floor were some dead slaves, youngsters and women. Two of those men held a woman and her throat was cut. Soon she fell down dead with a scream. By smell we could tell that some of the bodies have been dead quite some time. Soon, we have heard another conversation or at least a fragment of it. "Stupid woman..told her do as I said.." - said the first man near the woman's corpse. "Yeah good servants are hard to get this times" - Answered the other one. I thought then for a while about how to get past this room and soon some haradrim clothes have caught my attention. "I think we should disguise to pass this room, there are too many for us to take." - I whispered to my father and then pointed out the armour location. Not long after we have disguised ourselves and moved towards the room again. After entering it we have spotted the Leader of the Haradrim and so we saluted him, trying to act like ones of them. "And who are you?" - He asked as we approached. I decided to take the lead. "We have been sent here from the outer outpost as soon as the news about your new captive reached us." - I then answered and watched as he threw the woman's body at the pile of the dead. "Indeed, we've heard she's been causing quite the ruckus here..." - My father then said continuing our tactics. We talked him out a bit more hoping that he will pass her to us soon. "Show papers of that..beside..Wait here." - He then told us before leaving to the cell rooms. Soon we have scribbled a black speech parchment as my father knew how to use it then as the captain returned we gave him the document. He didn't even read it but allowed to give The Champion to us. As we passed the room we have seen more shivering prisoners in bad shape but alive, girls, women, young males. Kidnapped from villages. I knew then that we will return to that place to retrieve and free the prisoners. We soon were off that place and it was the time to remove the disguise and we did so. We freed her from the chains and soon she spoke to us. "Wait? The Thanduils?" - She then asked with surprise. Soon, we were back in Belfalas and The Champion was laid to rest and recover. I stayed by her side even if she didn't seem to care about me like I did.
