Eduwiges

Eduwiges of Faldham sat on the edge of the great flet of Telain Melthin dangling her feet over the vast empty space of the enormous grove of mallorn trees, A gentle breeze blew the branches and shining leaves into a gentle dance of golden light. Like a child she kicked her bare feet back and forth. She had changed out of her customary travel armor and into a black Lorien tunic and leggings. The golden trim of the sleeves and collar twinkled in the twilight sun of the golden wood.

Eduwiges of Faldham huffed and puffed her way up the steep ramp deep inside the bowels of Moria. Sweat beaded on her forehead and she could feel it popping out from every pore in her body. Dust from the deep caverns coated her skin like a fine powder. The humidity of the ancient mine meant that her clothes were drenched and stayed drenched. She blew a lock of hair away from her eyes and adjusted her makeshift pack. She ceased staring at the ramp in front of her and looked up.
