going through the Moria

Today I entered the Mines of Moria for the first time. To be honest, it is as bad as my brother Tor says. The mines are quite dark, and they stink most of the time.
I actually have no idea how I will get through that place, while my mind wanders off to the Vales and the Wells.

But while I miss my family, I have told myself that I will see them again soon. Soon that is...
Meanwhile I close my eyes, and oh dear, I even miss those moments that family members actually mocked me for being young and naieve. 

In a dark cave deep within the Moria, an elf was sitting on a thin cot against a wall, a bag and lyre laying next to her on the floor.

She had long dark hair, pale blue eyes that, in the dim light of the cave looked almost colorless, and was wearing a well worn traveling outfit.
