Marawendi

Out of the Frying Pan ....

Story

My heart was lightened when Estarfin pushed open the double doors to the outside world. The exit from Moria had been on my mind. I could remember the entry password, a simple utterance of the word ‘friend’, but I could not recall one for departing.

With Barahirn awake, and seemingly much better save his inability to walk, Estarfin and Danel ask after information on the attackers, anything unusual about them or their horses? 

Curumaito informs Parnard that his brother is now Captain in Celondim, while Marawendi looks on, mystified.

“If it is true that a Valarauko yet haunts this place, if we come across it, there will be no escape,” he said.

Departing Felegoth. 2/2

We continued, Estarfin doubtlessly thinking of what could await us in the Halls of Moria…as indeed was I. Parnard was likely thinking of dark tales he had heard of Moria, without any clear idea of what it was really like, and Marawendi unable to differentiate one danger from another. But at least we were leaving Mirkwood.

Departing Felgoth 1/2

I watched Parnard with a sad expression. This journey had brought him nothing he had hoped for. Far from it. It had confirmed his worst fears. We were about to depart Felegoth - what need was there for us to remain?- but only with a new apprentice for me, that being Marawendi. None of us had seen or spoken with Parnard’s hoped for betrothed. That door was closed to him.

A Short Rest

And after miles of almost emptiness, they finally come across a Goblin camp. Estarfin, Danel and Parnard do not hesitate to clear the way, but reluctantly leave the far less experienced Marawendi some distance from them. And after the immediate path is cleared, they all take a short rest in what appears to be an old library. Parnard takes the first watch.

The Halls of Moria

The group continue in their slow and difficult traversing of the old Dwarven realm. Narrow bridges, steep stairs, and always an oppressive darkness over what was once a most beautiful place. But the Dwarven ideal of beauty has more to do with caves and mines than the elven ideal. 

Marawendi does well for one so young and inexperienced, but she is obviously scared. At least the situation seems to have diverted Parnard's thought from Brasseniel for the moment.

Entering Moria

With the Hithaeglir more dangerous to cross on their return journey due to the thaw, and likelyhood of a larger number of goblins above ground, the group decide to travel through Moria. Maybe a wise decision, maybe not?

They have heard the rumours of a Balrog in the depths. but wonder at the accuracy of the tale. It is sure to be a home to goblins and orcs, but at least it shouldnt be slippery? 

Danel has traveled through a few areas in her days as a Mirdan, but that was many yeni past, and there may have been cave-ins or rockfalls.

Danel returns from checking the horses with Estarfin, to find Parnard on the floor, unable to get up. The Wood-Elf is totally inebriated. No matter how she tries, even threatening a purge with a salt and egg 'cocktail, Danel cannot stir her friend. Then Marawendi arrives, thinking of introducing herself to the Nolde she hopes will train her, only to be brought into the 'getting Parnard to stop drowning his sorrows' endeavor.
