The dark man slipped through the trees of the forest, looking around the empty landscape. Soon, Sharkey would have control of this place. Bree land. A servant of Mordor, as opposed to Isengard however, this man had a different mission than securing Sharkey's miniscule throne.
He had been assigned to scout out the realm of Bree, looking for any internal key figures that could pose a threat. His mission was to find individuals who could rise as forces against Sauron and kill them before they could rise. Not only would this make Sharkey's goals easier, but it would allow the forces of Angmar as well to swoop in with less resistance. Yes, those pesky Rangers would always pose a threat. But the Rangers were not his mission. His mission was the locals, the natives, and the various people to Enemy knew fled here from other lands. The man left the trees of Chetwood and stood atop a hill, looking down to nearby Archet, recently burned by bandits. Bree was weak, and Bree would soon belong to the Great Eye.
Kalabnalu, a Black Numenorean spy, took to the wilderness again. Once he found Greenway, he would stick close to it. His plan was to find a less populated, less popular, place to stay and set up shop.
