" Take care, Pele"
General's parting words echo through my mind as i feel myself being drawn back to Middle Earth.
What started as a tug begins to feel like i am being stretch impossibly thin, as if i have left part of me behind in shade and i am being stretched between the two worlds, beyond all possibility.. My mind and body are agony, my whole being a red haze of unending pain and i'm sure i must be dying.. just before blessed darkness overwhelms me, i feel a snap. Like a rubber band, the invisible bond had been severed , and i fall into the cool embrace of seeming death..
"welcome back, child" I hear the voice before i realize i haven't actually died. Hard, cold ground, sharp rocks stabbing into me, and the loamy scent of earth fill my senses and i realize i am laying face down in the dirt.. spitting out gravel i , i slowly raise my aching head and realize i am back where i started ....

The mountain peaks rise above me on all sides and it seems , by the long shadows of the late afternoon sun virtually no time has passed sinced i left Middle-Earth...
The elf seems amusedly entertained. Sitting on an outcropping of rock, silver eyes gleaming merrily, he watches me gather my bearings, occasionally drinking from a silver flask and stiring the embers of a dying fire.. This elf was different from the mage who sent me over, and he seems little more than a youth..
" I forget how weak you Mortals truly are, " he says with humor in his voice.. and as he gets up from his comfortable perch, heading towards me with the flask of some unknown content in his hand. I feel an uncontrollable Rage come over me...

Summoning the last of my strength....... i struggle to my feet and with all my unbridled anger contained in the motion , i CHARGE toward him like a furioius ball of energy........ and promptly throw up at his feet...
The comical look of surprise is almost worth the agony i am feeling. I lay in a ball, clutching my middle, my stomache on fire , my head still spinning wildy and note that on reflection, this probably wasn't my finest moment.. "How utterly charming," I hear him mutter sarcastically.
He had regained his composure and stood looking down at me. Eyes darkened a stormy grey, he had the haughty look of imperious disdain elves are known for down pat and he suddenly seemed decades older than i first assumed.. " Careful, Mortal girl," he said dangerously." Only our freindship with your Leader has kept you safe thus far." Relenting he pours a cupful of some dark liquid... "Drink this, it will refreshen you." he urges as he hands me the cup. Sitting up weakly, i take the mug and stare doubtfully at it's murky brown contents. I take a cautious sip and taste.... Sunshine on a warm spring day, cool spring water, and sweet honey nectar, as i feel the energy pouring back into me. "why was i dragged back so abruptly!" i demand angrily " I was't ready to leave, and why wasn't i warned the trip could kill me!" I suspect i am acting like a sulky child, but can't stop myself. He replies coldy." You WERE warned it would only be a short visit." "But!" i protest loudly.. He holds up a pale, skinny hand. "As for the other, you obviously are not dead." Saying so, he reaches into a leather pouch and pulls out an amulet hanging form a fine elvin chain. He hands me the necklace and I slip it over my neck, studying the design engraved in the hammered silver pendant. "This is infused with Magic, and with it you will not need our help crossing over, and it will make the journey easier." I thank him gratefully, sheepishly apologizing for my previous behavior and secretly wishing they had given me the dang thing in the first place. Seemingly back to his previous youthful self once more , he smiles and says, " I will teleport you back to BREE, clan of yours wait to hear news of General." and he steps back, uttering an incantation and i find the clearing vanishing before me.

BREE
I step out onto the empty road in front of the Inn.The town is asleep for the night, the shops all dark and silent. Lively music carried in the still night air comes from the pub down the street and i hear loud voices raised in drunken merriment. My eyes adjust to the darkness and drink in a dazzling display of a million stars ablaze in the clear night sky. Suddenly all my senses warn me of danger and i place my hand on the hilt of the dagger at my side and look around cautiously. Subtle movement in the darkened alley across from the Inn alerts me of a presence and i curse myself for the clothes i have on, which offer nothing in the way of armor.. I am contemplating going back for my sword when the stillness is explosively shattered by a bloodcurding shriek... From the alley a large grey mishaped figure bursts forth and launches itself toward me in a flury of motion.. I have just enough time to draw my dagger when a figure detaches itself from the shadows and runs towards me as well. They connect in a voilent clash of fury, steel and blood . Just as quickly as it had begun it was over, and the town, snug in their beds slept on blissfully unaware. I raced towards the now ended battle, casting Greater Healing on my unknown ally as i did so. He knelt over the dead body, his assassins gear making him all but indistinguishable in the darkness.. Standing at my approach, he removes his hood, and i see, with a start, one of my oldest friends in Middle Earth.. TAL! I rush forward and he swoops me around in a hug, gore and all.. "Hello, little one, i heard you were back , and, i see, up to trouble, as usual ." He laughes, gesturing to the corpse. The putrid stench makes my eyes water and i step back a few paces.. " Trolls, in the city? " I saw wonderingly , staring at the body of the dead fighter at my feet.. He sighs heavily, " They have gotten more daring of late, this is not the first one." He reaches down and wipes the blade of his sword off on his victim. "They are being spotted ever closer to the city. " I sit on the edge of the stone fountain behind me.. "The elves have told me as much". I muse..
I'm staring into the dark water, seeing a million stars reflected in its mirrorlike surface.... " They also tell of rampant bands of cutthroats and thieves who are growing stronger all the time, attacking travelers in broad daylight, here, and in hobb. of all places." Tal sits beside me, weariness etched in fine lines on his swarthy complexion. Blowing out a sight of frustration, he tiredly runs a hand through his black hair. saying.. " You have spent too many months in the mountains, searching for the way to shade.." he continues, "Yes, its true, the roads once thought safe are no longer, and i have spent much time saving foolhardy adventure seeking 'children' who are forever wandering into trouble..
A commotion at the end of the street draws our attention. The drunken merriment in the pub grows momentarily louder as two hulking warriors burst from the doorway, carrying a struggling, furious, red-faced bundle between them. Groaning, Tal raises his eyes heavenward as he says in an exasperated voice."Speaking of children.."

"NOOOO!!! NOT AGAIN! LET ME GO ! YOU UGLY SONS OF *&%*$ES ! YOU COWARDS! AHH! HELP! HELP!!"
The foul mouthed struggling youth being carried like a sack of flour was unmistakably our hot-headed little Pip, the youngest member of the clan. The fighters continue heading toward the huge fountain in the middle of the town square, where Tal and i are currently sitting. They reach their goal and with a mighty heave gleefully throw the still cursing Pip sailing with great velocity towards the fountain. We jump out of the way just as he hits with a tremendous spash, water spraying in all directions. As Pip splashes and flails around wildly the two men laugh uproariously and turn and head back toward the pub once again.
"The boy spends half his time being thrown in that fountain, " Tal remarks, "You would think he'd learn to control that smart mouth of his" We watch as sputtering, he tries to regain his footing, only to slip on the fountains slimy bottom and plunge into the water once again. Tal burst out laughing, eyes dark and merry.. "Why don't you go help the pup and i will meet you both inside once i dispose of this vermin?" He suggests with a kick at the dead troll.. Pip has managed to climb out of the fountain by now and stands shivering in the cool night air, water dripping off him in little pools around his feet. "Hey little brother, going swimming?" i call out to him teasingly.. "Pele! Your back! What was it like? Did you find G? What did he say? Can i borrow some gear? Got any extra weapons?" He says it in one breathless sentence and throwing himself at me like a soggy puppy, gets me soakes as well. Rolling my eyes i lead him towards the pub, saying "Lets go meet the others and i will tell everything..
