KHIANAT IN HELMSDEUB (Helmsdeubs kwiters ab V.Mayeur : http://www.mayvin.be/helmsdeep.

php ) Saul surviverin siens expedition, ia Pwolelf dyohrc un konak in id dalg, bet collapsit pre nakus id ! Rilwen gohr samt un khaketha. Ia lyohg sub wulnen blanquets ed ep uno smulk strahmatrass. Ays crovat wohs ep un genis capchenmur quod oistrohc inter ia pilars ed ia uder murs uns dreun kielken. Un blonda menscin sess claus id trem ios crovat. Quer som io ? Quer sont mien vesters ? sprohg Rilwen. Reman sakwn, westgwena ! ieyit ia blond. Es in salvtat her in Muidwe Germengild, bei folk im Beornings. En nov vesters, tien ghi prevers eent dohrn. Te skehpto dalger pro id snidan.

Menxu ia Beorning abgwahsit, Rilwen vis ta povestis. Ia stahsit ub ed klied ia. Tathariels mengusch ed eys kaykrica hieb naiwo likwn iam. Ta vesters eent un ghiton ex urand lieter (lizdt med sabalpell, samt armels tiel id runc), chausses kathalika ex urand lieter, ed bauts ex teug lieter. Rilwen visit samt satisfaction od ays lietern dorak ed ays elfisk mantel eent dar ter.

Dind, ia joinit iam blondu nieb uno meja quer id snidan eet parat. Un wir, isschi blond, sess her ja. Is znieyc ay pwolelf eme place : Sellgumt, som Bersefa, poti tos koim. Lehg mi tien storia; kad ghehdsiem te hehlpe. Sammel mejend uno snidan ex khlaybs, butter, mielt, dedhen smantan ed medu, Rilwen ei narrit sien aventures ed, way, id nehc sienen sokwis. Ia declarit od, taiper, ia volit gwahe Thranduils Halls, in Deusklays, kay redahe id mengusch ia vohs idsi legitim suter. Bersafa ay explicit Muidwe Germengild wohs euster quem Maethelburg ana id Anduin, nieb id strad quod duxit ibs Halls, ed kalt ob to id Elfen Paund. Tod Rd

Annon in in elfisk bahsa, lit pri id awo citad Caras Amarth tiel Aradhrynd, id Palat ios Elfisk Roy. Rilwen spens id reste ios dien pro ia safergarwis, tem quem pro visite id konak. Amalsuntha, ia blond gwena qua hieb wakht uper Rilwen, ay gjuchienit kam eet organiset un Beorning hem. I Beornings (wa Beijabars) kiel ta doms Laenganhuida. Eent swohd-ye oinkyal structures makhen ex suatohxt madeir. Nekam ia binas altern Nordmenscen, ta hems uperkihr id grundo med galgon. Ia hieb hog tavans. Bersafa provis un pony ad Rilwen, ed klied el med spieja, pro plur hevs sei ia esiet iktissadic : nuces, melv, sgillt poders os oschaf, pots ex rudh ghomo mathmounend mielt, biscuits os longo conservation, ex qua uno smulko quantitat ay permittient un long itner. Id makhen tom biscuits eet oin eysen secrets; bet eet mielt eni, kam in eys pleist aliments, ed id gust eet ay amat, quayque ay dahr teurst. Wed, sieyg Bersafa ad Rilwen, ne eet necessar ep tod gon ios forest, ar eent spruts ed surces engwn id paund. Bet vies itner unte Deusklays est sombre, dangereus ed difficil, is iey. Ne est aisic trehve ter jlampohn, ne meis quem pieut. In ta forests, jects sont stragna, kyehrsen ed wild. Vos providsiem outers kay transporte wed. Bet dwoim baygh od yu trehfsiete semject saun essu au pohtu in Deusklays. Est ter, gnohm, un kyehrsen ed akster rivier quod crucet id via. Yu niete bilhassa pohe id ni snahe ter ; ho ghi klut id behrt un charmen ed transmitt uno megil raflat ed myehrsen. Eti, in ia indistincta skadhs tom locs, kehnso yu tracsiete neid saun au dussaun ex linkwes id via. Ed to, NE PRO ID MUND !

Ye id posdien, Rilwen emsit snidan con Bersafa ed Amalsuntha, dind ei viensch pawiropeku pre linkwes kye Deusklays. Dat Rilwen sohkwit Bersafas radhs, id safer wakyit aun incident ed ia redahsit ad Tathariel ays mengusch. Bad, ia retrohv Bersafa ed Amalsuntha in Muidwe Germengild. Taiper, quayque ia dusgnohsit id route, Rilwen volit joine Lorien. Ter, ia buit primt ab Galadriel, qua ay riedhit draukhte in Rohan, pos saygus im Rohirrim ia eet un prient os Throgonfil (fals identitat os Aragorn in tod land). Fin-ye, Rilwen Henlost buit schildmaid in id poli Helmsdeub.

Id air lyohg still ed gwaur ambh ia ancian walls ios mier burj kalen ios Hornburg. Kam id dum ios boi, gver ed yehsend, aglus siemmel ep id horizont ye prue. Un storm est gwehmend, murmurit Rilwen meis ad se quem ad sien sokwi Deorhere. Ya, un storm quos stohnter est marchend heirs, quos blix est tweiser miecha, ed quos seuy est isus, iey Deorhere.

Eys hands, gnubht ab oumer, empug eys piel darm-ye menxu is oistier ad id deuskend plain.

Baym od boi vaht mox gwehme ad nos. Maghses pior mox. Men nies poti Erkenbrand hat ridt kya Pords ios Isen con maung yeudmens. Nient ies uperghehlde protiev iens Orks ? Erkenbrand ed ies Reiders face meis quem Orks, Deorhere nabahsit, brovend-ye. Ho klut od Saruman hat yugen i wildens Dunlandisk clinmenscens sieni cause, redaghend ir awa haines. Orks ed Whargs leur-ye aluent in id land, paurskend caudaschens ad torture au hatta pro viler fats. Strads sont hanten ab gigant wolfs, ed nel mussafer est salv !

Nieb Deorhere, Rilwen spohcit kata id poli Hornburg, strugen in ia awa diens os Gondors klewos. Uno mier leuxmen in id gabehrgo ghyahsit apter i. Markmensci eekalneunt tod poli Helmsdeubo pon id sigh os Helm Hammerhand uper i Dunlanders unte id long winter iom legendar tids. Id entrat ios Deub, Helms Dwor, separit id ud id Deuben Cumb, ed skeir id Dwor spiend id Deuben Wall, desperat-ye enderbemannen. Id Deuben Wall eet ye sien nordbors ankert ei sword speren ios Hornrock, ep quod oistieusit id Hornburg Donjon, Rilwens presento dohbro wals. Kun ia kataspohc, ia ghohd vide id Deuben Strohmo snehgend ambh id Hornrock, reuschend unte un brigvelin id Deuben Wall, tetos oisreund ghomtro kya ardhen murs os Helms Deigh. Trans id Deigh, eust- ed nordworts, lyohg Deuben Combh vulbht in mighel ed skadh. Rilwen swurgh de ia werds os sien prient. Kam is ed alters sammelt in id Hornburg gnohr, id situation eet aunspeh. Id Westpold eet taiper in ia noghs im Dunlanders ed Orks, bo wieg bayna in ia prevst-ye enpace dorevs ed hortghehrds ios Rohanfolk.

Present-ye, Helms Deub eet defens ab circa mil soldats, pleistens ex i pior veut au pior yun pro gwahe con Erkenbrands Reiders kun is absielgit kya Pords ios Isen. Gamling is Veut eet taiper is garnison commander, ed un dohbro chef, speit sien alt oumer. Rilwen eet oin tim mant apter. Albatta, ia hieb ne bad crucet miech con oin iom hideus Orks ud id Nan Curunir, bet Rilwen eet kafi veut pro combate ed rides ed suatrainiret ! Ays protests ne hieb est kaut. Tun ia stahsit her, waitend ed wakhtend. Minst-ye, ays wakhtcommander, Deorhere, eet un prient qui iam respexit, speit id fact is hieb riden con maungens grand jenchis. Taraghen ed ducen ab dohlg, ia likwit Deorhere ed ghieng aunotikh engwn id veut mur ios Hornburg. Apter iam stulb id emergent masse ios trihorn picios kalen Thrihyrne. Nordermeist bors ios Albh Gabehrg, eet silhouetten in id lento temos os auror. Quant eet still ed sakwn in id Combho ploisko un waurmenwent grok em ghatend akbabs. Esdi ia eet un schildmaid, Gamling hieb deht iam in darajagwah dohlg. Ter iter, ia hieb habto pau cheus. Rilwen begwahsit engwn ia zanns ios Hornburg, linkwnda Deorhere eysi wals, daumend kam aus ia vidiet boi. Ia gir id parapett ios Hornburgs uder wall, nizdt kam id eet sub id hog norder behrg. Levter quem ia, id wall eet tem buland quem penk wirs. In id deub skadh, ia ghohd suavide id drab ud id cauddwor quod duxit ghomtro kyid gorge os Helmsdeub. Quant kwohk in aurdhen taiper.

Bet eet tod voc, swight, ed ne baygh distant ? Seizend un torche ud id murluster nieb, Rilwen se clihsit ep id massive embrasure ed scrutit id base ios wall. Ia dohrj id torche apter se taiper, kay ne revele sien presence. Bet id torche ne eet necessar, semanghen ghi pod id Cauddwor dohrj un lanterne quod, quayque kohldert, diedwit kafi luce kay illumine iens dwo wirs oistahndens ter. Rilwen recognihsit oiter Herulf, un Reider ios Mark vurnen unte un incursion protiev oik skulks payn oin hevd pre. Eet un trusen commander, likwn apter ab Erkenbrand kay serve Gamling. Bet nieb Herulf stahsit un cort ed maur wir samt deusko kays ed traits. Is kwohkit kam un Dunlander in id xep. Bet sei is eet druve-ye Dunlander, tun khianat se preparit, ar i mensci ud trans id Ghyamen taiper swohl Sarumans rangs. Ed Herulf eet handend ei un plohcen pergamen ! Impossible !

Per eys basic dialect, hatta mildert, Rilwen realisit od alter wir eet ghi un Dunlander, ed ays annem buit segen ab stupor. Herulf ed is wir ud Dunland spohc ub surpriden, ir liges clar-ye illuminen ab id luce ios lanterne. Id spect os Herulf eet strehng ed indignat menxu tod ios tarnien eet schockt. Ye tod instant, Rilwen realisit od ays lige sollit ses yaschi clar-ye visible in id luce ios torche is taiper dohrj nieb se. Ia klieup

retro ud id leizdo ios mur, kerd stundend in ays pizdan. Khianat ! Ia hieb aunstohct un Reider os Rohan ed un Dunlander in parlar eni Helmsdeub ! Dehnd ghom id torche, Rilwen prudent-ye scrutit uper id embrasure iter. Bet taiper eet neid ploisko un recessive deusk aungrund; id lanterne hieb esen sgwesen ed ies wirs hieb disprohpt. Rilwen grip id stena, ed oistier in id temos, sieno ment hajoumt ab confus brens. Eet Herulf un khayn ? Hieb is prodehn uno map om Helmsdeubs walls ? Au un boiplan ? Esiet ghi skeiro pro i defenders ios Hornburg sei un Dunlander habiet aunstohct oin iom secret vias engwn id Deuben Wall ed inswo Helmsdeub. Autah is Dunlander eet un khayno dia sien folk, ed Herulf dostrig sien plan kay kapane i aunfid clinmenscens sei i marchient ep id Burg. In quant fall, bo wirs hieb viden Rilwen. Sa reflex unte uno moment. Sollit ses sem raison pro id stragno sulouk os Herulf. Sekwent vasya mathals, eet un drud Reider ios Mark, bevis in plur combats. Sem plan sollit ses apter tod action. Kad seller eet clarihes talg jects, we ia eet nakis. Bet tun, eet tant in pand : ia gwits aysen dusten, quanten loyal Eorlingas, wirs ed gwens ios Westfolde, ed ir purts. Hornburg, Rohan ! Ex id confusion aysen brens, oin jecto kwohkit clar : ia dohlg sayge ad Gamling quo ia hieb viden ! Ne dwoi od is eet kafi hakime kay kehnse prabh-ye : isschi woidiet an Herulf eet planend drughes i Dunlendings med sien complexe plan. Ia se hiest kyid prokwemst drab, rusch ghom do id uder ghehrd niter dind se sohnd tiel ia dwors ios Burg. Ia arrivit just barwakt-ye kay navaxe Gamling ed eys personal guardes salgend id Burj. Sa-trohceer kye Helms Deigh ed eme ter ir walsa pro id dien. Un moment, Draukhting, prehgo, un moment, ia kwohs currend-ye. Ho un rapport.

Id grupp abgir ed hielt. Is commandant ios guardia, un senior bet fit jenchi, bahsit preter : Quod troublet vos ? Leit semject skeir ? Dehlgo bahe con Gamling ! Est urgent !

Gamling is Veut, Draukhting ios Deubs Garnison in lieu os Erkenbrand, se sohnd per sien guardia ed oistahsit ant iam. Ya, is iey. Eorling ed Draukhting, inkiep Rilwen, oik moments pre eem uper id Cauddwor ep mien darajagwah quan io ieur vocs ep id drab. Io spohc uper id wall kay vide un Reider, sokwi nosters garnison, conversend con...

Rilwen pausit unte un secunde, scrutend ia liges os Gamlings guardia, un Dunlending skulk.

Schocken wajkha, mixen con incredulitat, skip hol perambh. Gamling remien strehng.

Quis eet so Reider yu habte vis ? sprohgit Gamling.

Ies guardes gwohm proscher. Habte yu vis eys lige ?

Ye tod moment, Rilwen bihsit rhayr yakin. Vasyi wirs ambh iam eent darmi prients os Herulf. Eet un baygh popular chef, ed eet saygen de iom od sem dien is commandiet un eored. Ho viden eys lige, Swamen, bibahsit Rilwen, dind pausit iter.

Pos un nov annem, ia kamyieb sayge : Eet Herulf.

Uno murmure agitit iens guardes, ed sems glihr. Gamling scussit sien cap. Ne gnohm quo yu habte vis, gwenak, ploisko maghses un isnaht vision. Herulf est un Reider, brave ed boischrammt, mandet hetro ab Erkenbrand, qui deht maung trust in iom. Yu ne bringhte fid viesims wild accusations ! Ne est possible od un Dunlending hieb ghohdt se sehnde entro, ploisko unte ia Megil Dwors au unte id deuyker, ed bo sont suaguardet, kam yu gnohte. Bet Swamen, ia protestit, quod de ia secret passes ud id Cumb ei Deub de qua vasyi Eorlingas hant klun, quayque pauks ghehdient traverse ia druveye ? Ho vis iom Reider passe un pergamen ei clinmensc ed an eet un map ? Yu habte haben un sogn. Eet Sarumans agos, conclus Gamling. Niemos tolke eti de to. Gnohm od yu suamaynte, bet solg charges dahnt nos meis zulm quem hehlp. Mae bahte de to ad alters hantghi kafi kay Sarumans gostprimieve.

Saygus to, Gamling forvols con sien guardia apter se ed ies ieg unte id magno dwor kyid Deigh. Ajiz ed embarasset, Rilwen rik id uder wall, gnohnd od ays niebsto darajagwah vahsit gwehme. Ia mohm de Gamlings werds : ghohd id ses druv od ia hieb habt un dussogn ? Eet lakin convicta de ! Id sol jidiel kay brehge id kyehrsen kehlder in id euster waurn. Kwohkit ghi kamsei id land al Peind vomih pro se weiraglus. Weiro protie Gondor ! Bet Rilwen kieur dei Eorlingas, kam ia skul. Spehcend ub, deusk aglus ghiet her, yaschi. Sei id weter remien dengu hoyd, id eet un dusomen pro id Cumb, ar Sarumans raidend orks naagient perodh prosch id Deub.

Ia trohc ep sien assignet dienwals ep id bollwehrg. Eet un abwohrto stet ep un gombh hog uper id euster gon ios skarp uperhangend id Hornburg. Glehmus gwis-ye unte sem wakt, ia niek sien wals kun id sol just biyisit sien strehls ep id Burg; ia piegit kay waite duschmans : sei un Dunlending ghehdiet gwehme ad id Cauddwor ios Hornburg, tun hol esiet tohrct, ye bragv au longo kixien. Lent-ye, id sol nawus. Bet id Deub, quod ia spohcit ghom ender, ne esiet beluct pre id sol habiet begwaht id dwodel siens agmo, ed tik sei ia stormaglus habient skapen. Ia wakyas ios prever horios troubleer iam, ed dahr ay grunds kay ses nerveus. Her ep id akro ios clin, id wind blahsit kaurd ed srig, bewehghend gvir ed heulend menacendst-ye. Ia se forcit ad se concentre menxu id wakt passit, iaghi ne volit ses distract. Quod leik Herulf lik ? Ia ieur plura rocks cobore apter se, ed aysa spina krus. Rilwen stahsit ub ed parvolsit just barwakt-ye kay vide un Dunlending clinmensco charge iam med un einso swohnct perodh se. Eys okwi eent wild ed is erug ia werds : Nehc, forgoil ! Way, ne eet is sam wir ia hieb viden con Herulf ep id Cauddrab.

Is wir vurn ays bemern, quo deconcentrit Rilwen. Is Dunlending vurn tun ayso saur; tod fasdo stehrbih Rilwen. Ays aunspeh katu protiev iom Dunlending hieb esen bolt, bet is hieb uperwaldht iam. Rilwen gohr sem wakt serter ob un gvaltic yau quod yis volns os pein per ays gvolic cap. Ia pit touche sien vurnos, bet ays hands eent bohnden ! Eet peridiemt ed xubht uper id regv uns pony. Lyt ghyanend sien okwi, ia vis od, taiper, eet diewo, bet aglus miesk id sol. Ducen ab un grupp em Dunlanders, ay kwohk ses ep un draylo leitend per id tegu gras ios Westpold ! Rilwen na-siefer in uno muschkil torpor, ops ne gnohnd kweter ia drohm we gwivit tod biauric wehrtmen iom wakyas. To dieughit quasi ka neid pites aunstehge quetro ia trohc; i Dunlander jenchis kwohkeer khake bahe ays lingua. Ia ghohd, waurmenye, lives sien cap ed spehce id Westpoldo plain, bet ter lyohg id khiterst ios coschmar. Quantloc ep id horizonto srohteer dumstolbs, ielg markend un sacto dorev. Also, tehrnd id paund as Rilwens lytil grupp samt sem regularitat eent bandes om khiter yeudmens. Eent dun pro weir, ed in sell dumos. Erkenbrand sollt esus marloubiht bi ia Pords, mohn Rilwen, ed toy wildyeudmi siemmel pro id schturm ep id Deub. Nerce im defenders ios Burg murmurit Rilwen aunspeh. Buit sem confusion perodh; el pony zahielt. Xyangend-ye ambh se, ia glazit sien Dunlander captors tolkend con alyo grupp yeudmen. No, eent Orks ! Bet to ne hieb sense ! Eet dientid, ed toy Orks lakin eent alnos oistahnd yow. Meg stragn ! Vocs buir jaharer, ed werds niek Rilwen. Westron ! Brohct ed dispronuncet, bet ies clinmensci ed ies Orks bahr in Westron ! Ta familiar werds ne husureer iam, lakin, iaghi grupps tolkeer de iam ! He, nies ! bahn samt chiaujaen. Eet vies, nun nies ! gwohm id brohm uns Ork. Gwaht Krina. Wehlens !

Oin iom vile creatures regwohm tiel Rilwens pony, siz iam per ays cap ed traxit iam ub hina buit tem quem tod uns Ork ! Id pein eet dusbohr ! Rilwen spohc in ia sword puts eysen skengokwi ed khiss eyso chald annem ep sien lige, kun id passit per un stohm ghirst med skarp, gehlb dents. Rilwen stier, kam hypnotisen ab tod abject face. Quod leit skeng, fresch miems ? kwiex is Ork. Has tu naiwo viden un combattant Uruk-Hay ? Krina habsiet gleus med te, ed pos habsiemos noster !

Dind is Ork hul in gleimen viabgwahnd-ye. Rilwen pit spiues pod iom, bet ia missit ed ob to buit mizdt med un schamar. Is Ork joinit alters, quoy hieb tragen ir armes. Hakaras ed ghem tehrgs plehr id air, ed kun oin Dunlander swohng sieno miech, un furieus boi inkiep. Rilwen ieur ia biauric cries om vurnt ed mehrnd yeudmens, iesghi Orks uperghohld, ed ies glihr peigher-ye kun ies surviver Dunlanders fug. Dwo Orks siz ia oulers al pony ed duxeer el in alyo direction. Fat hieb est cruel dia Rilwen, qua pit ne bayaldisse. Bet ia ne tohrb ! Toy Orks ne behngient ays menos ! Rilwen spohc retro ed vis tun alyum Ork tragend med id ped oin iom victen Dunlanders. Ma kwohr is to ? Id antwehrd, kun id enfiell ad Rilwen, buit tem schockend quem ia lus iter conscience. Kun ays coschmars rebihr realitat, un akster odor schturm Rilwen. Ia gvaess un vil mixture om dum, swoid, excrement ed lesch. Eet gwahnd prosch un Ork lagher ! Eet maung activitat ed blosk. Youbelnd Orks eent chehxend ia armes. Minorks nohm spieja ed ti quant creatures ex id Nan Curunir kwohr balagan, ielgis katuendis de sem trivial ject au alyo. Kwehrnd id effort os oispehce ub iter, Rilwen dyohrc uno meist-ye disgeusend vid. Ep ia pauk drus qua nastahr her hieng ia nayvs braven Reiders, maurdht in ia horriblest weidsa. Rilwen habiet volen crie, bet ia khiek. I Orks ne tohrb vide un sliebe in iam ! Ia buit stayg duben ghom. Dwo large, bavant Orks ghens iam ub per ays runcs ed glesens, quo eet baygh-ye gvolic, ilhali eent sohrt-ye bohnden ed ays hands lyohg prostren in ays regv. Ies bohr ays payttend corpos do un swordo delt nieb id centre ios lagher. Udslahmend-ye id plab, ies Orks xubh iam intro, veritable-ye lehncend-ye iam ep id plor. Nieb iam buit sklas ays hol schowbey. Rilwen volvit ter ep id kardu grundo dind spohc ub. Un gwena, deusk ed stragn-ye bell, stahsit uper iam.

Ia bahsit ia rauk werds ios Kyehrsen Bahsa, ed ies bo Orks quoy hiebeer brighen iam pwolelf tetro liv ub ays corpos ed knigvihr id in un ghem stul. Ia gwen vols taiper kye Rilwen ed revelit sien hand, quos oin fingher eet kingen ab un ring bedehno med un daumosto joyel. Rilwen stier ad id gemme, staunend de ids beauteit dat id twis ed bligit quayque neid lampe beluc id delt. Prehgo, ayso songvsam voc fiell ep Rilwen, acceptet mien humil excuses ob vies traitement.

Ays voc eet kam un avensongvo melodia pos id grob Orkbahsa. Id dansend gemme vulbh Rilwen. Smad tolke de maung jects. Tweiser strohms ed trifel in id lung. Smad myehrse Orkbahsa ed daunet. Mehne de mielt ed medu. Fragrant flors ed crehspend sneigv. Kamte yu ta jects ?

Rilwen ghohd tik nukes. Ays voc eet seutend ed otikhplen, kam tod as un saun dastkarin. Lehg mi tien safer, quo tu has vis, ed kam tu has gwohmen tetro. Wehno gnohsa. To me pleht. Ne vahs mi refuse to, ne ? Volo tik tien salvtat... tib esiet warm. Lehg mi... lehg mi nun...

Neid in hol Medioghehrd habiet daht meger plaisure quem sayge tay nraveihnt gwen quant. Plehno med wierme ed liubh, id stohm as Rilwen fiell ghyant ed bibahsit kam naiwo prever. Ia gwena smih latif-ye kun ia pwolelf tolkit. Waurmen-ye, ia se ieur sayge : Ho vis Herulf ed un Dunlander in id Sword Drab... Eem in id Burg... Credeihm in id tunnel... Eet id waurn deusk... Eem con Dunlanders...

Ia nadahsit semper meis detayls... Lakin id kwohk tem trivial. Rilwen khiek fiker ma ia gwen pohnd hol to interessant. Kun Rilwen hieb finihn, ia gwen rebahsit, ed to buit kam ses vulbhen in un warm blanquet. Est mutlak daumost ! Ste tant-ye nert ed bolt, tolcte mi de vies prients ! Quayt sont i ter ed quosmed tekhnasse i guarde id megil Hornburg...

Rilwen eet tem soitosta de ays interesse quem ia rinkiep, lehgend de ia enderbemannt walls ed ir slaba points. Ia eet mileus, ed Rilwen eet plehna med joy, semper spehcend id klewost ring ep ays delicate fingher. Iter Rilwen stopit, kenwerdo taiper ed exhausen. Ia gwen giowit sien hand ed stayg id waurgend thamf ios lagher rusch iter intro. Iaghi ne eet tem bell quem Rilwen hiebit prest-ye mohnen, esend anter veut ed wonk. Pein dyohgwit ia apsa ias pwolelf, ed ays cap se kwohkit kun ia mohn de quo ia hieb revelen uni perfecti tarnienin allien im Orks ! Ays cap fiell perodh ob schamo menxu ia gwen rakiekel med un ghem ed khiter gleih. Vehrm, ia cakhinit, es tem slab ed pestilent. Gnohdi nun od tien brave Erkenbrand buit brohct bi ia Pords ed od nun compromitts i Kalmcaps os Helmsdeub ? Saruman est mien mayster, ed daunet tien !

Tun ia vols kyens Orks dar in id kyal : Ghendte iam wayt, de quetro ne kauro !

Ies dwo balagian Orks quoy eent oistahnd apter Rilwen iter siz ays runcs ed glesens. Ayrus iam ub, ies bohr iam extro pos ghendus un ays equipement. Exter id delt, is Orko qui dier ays glesens oislu ia, linkwnd iom frontascho sehlke Rilwen engwn id lagher. Orks hut, pliegel iam ed xubh sakwrnt ep iam unte tod procession quod vihielt ant ia coctorms. Is frontasch Ork muk Rilwen ed smissit senters armur ex urand lieter, armes ed schowbey ocolo. Is dind wohkw in sambahsa un long, bet anter cuitmaigher Orko qui ghesorit un sater. Gaznag : alya ekwer pro te. Lass id cuit ye tod ker. Est meist smagu !

Un talg tolk eet abject, bet Rilwen dohlgit lakin klustres id. Gaznag dehlct kwehre id hol orbat ? schikiey is reluctant cokwo. Ya ! Ed ne leik med id pior diu. Wey hunghric ! Smos ies combattant UrukHays ! Nun oku, sonst eddmos teschi !

Pos to, is bulander Ork likwit. Hmm, iey Gaznag tastend ed glegend Rilwen. Yu kwehriete un smagu bukat, ya ? Kad habsiem ioswo un schtuk ex te. Kams tu likes ?

Is aunkrewo, drighirst Ork puscit Rilwen prosch se ed swehbhihsit id mier kniv uper divers parts os ays corpos. Paurfrohst, ia pwolelf ne reieg. Un petra pliegit Gaznags cap.

Akh ! Rilwen se tors kay vide quel hieb xubhen id kaghel. Kwehrndo to, ia realisit ia lyohg nieb id leizdo ios waun ed od id petra gwohm ud sem busk, au un chuff kovilen, just trans un beskadhto dru. Vahm vos doce yun Orks un lection ! pnus Gaznag, taiper finghernd ad un edel contusion ep sien temper. Leivend ed swehngend id sater ant se, is abghieng in id gras.

Rilwen chohxit sien diemens. Ia hieb slohmbern ob id Orken rauk traitement, ed ia tekhniess lures oiter hand. Un katu sprohng ambh id centre ios lagher, ed Rilwen emsit id waurmen os se aunbehnde pre Gaznag rik. Ia sollit sizes sien chance ! Se redehnd ep sien peds, bet hockend, ia se preparit ad se precipite kyid busk ep id leizdo ios lagher pre meis Orks rik. Rilwen ghens ub sien hol schowbey quod lyohg nieb iam, ploisko sien pelk, ed rusch ex id lagher. Kun ia niek id busk, ia pwolelf glaz ambh se, peitend tarke quod eet id gohdsto skapitner. Tun ia vis Gaznags nayv ! Eet baurn ab un isu quod eet neter os Dunlandisk ni os Orkisk makhen. Eet id isu es un Eorling ! Dalg dexter quem ia, Rilwen ieur un winlik bet waurgen voc : Sokwnia, Eorlinh, som her !

Ud apter sem graskalms ieusk un blond cap, sohkwn ab id corpos os un solid Reider ! Gwehm hetro, ed sdi silent !

Rilwen gwohm prosch sien kjiugnaner med tem maungo nin quem ia ghohd bevide. Prient, mohld Rilwen kun ia hieb naken iom. Skeulo pro aiwo dia te. Bet kam has tu gwohmen ad salve me ?

Eem con Erkenbrands forces. Buam diaspohrn bi ia Isen Pords, bet ne destruct. Ho piten gwehme proscher id Deub, bet Orks bier mien itner. Ho arriven her, ed kun te ho vis bright ei lagher, ho skohpten kay vide an io ghohd hehlpe te. Hasghi ghohden. Ed tien nam ? iskwit Rilwen. Hermgamel, is antwohrd. Ah, ya, gnohm tien son, Hermgarth, in id Burg. Is leit wal, bet dehlgmos linkwes tod stet sei eiskwmos rikes ter ! Unte ter, Hermgamel pfohrst un varsa ios Thrihyrne, kyid dal ed Deuben Cumb. Est dalg. Niem iskwes tib quosmed has gwohmt tiel her just nun, bet sies lehge mi to serter. Has tu id nerce kay safer tsay ? Ya ! Rilwen stahsit ub, just kun ays absence in id lagher buit aunstohct. Gwehm, dehlgmos spudes !

Uno magno grupp ex Uruks ed Minorks rusch ex id lagher, ed eent paurskend iam pwolelf ! Vahr mox trehve Gaznag. Rilwen ed Hermgamel dohlg abdrahe ! Bo rusch per id lendvbuland gras, bet i hieb esen viden pior aus ab iens Orks. Emittend enseins, ies oistrohl ir isus. Menxu Rilwen ne hieb revohsto sien lietern armur, Hermgamel hieb gwupen id, ed buit nilent ob to. Is fiell, hihn dwis ! Rilwen ghohd tik nacurre. Bad, ies Orks khiek navaxe iam ed ia pwolelf ghohd eme wakt pro un curto rahat. Traurnda de Hermgamels nehc, ia wohgv naiwo myehrse eyso sacrifice ed spehsit od sem dien, ia ghehdiet ses tem brave ed tem swoleus. Neti persohkwn, ia gwahsit prosch Deuben Cumb. Deuben Cumb forstrohc sudworts ed eustworts, un wandlik land polden ed ravinen, hortghehrden ed smulken laysen quod oistigh ub kay ghate id Albh Gabehrg. Prevst un enpace ed prosper vallee sub id vigilant ok ios Hornburg, id lyohg taiper Eorlingas-tuich, sakwn-ye skehptend Sarumans kreigend hordes. Ia dohlg trehce do Helms Deigh ed trehve Gamling kay dahe ei novs de quo hieb ay wakyet. Ia ghohd payn tules luses wakt ! Id posmiddien oku liess place ei vesper, hohlpto pro to ab un teug plafon om kyehrsen, deusk aglus. In id distance, Rilwen kieusit alyens gastalts. Ischi marcheer kye Deuben Cumb, bet ne eent Eorlingas. Sarumans Orks, meis mukhtmel-ye, ia tierk. Exploreer perodh id belagherheir ios Albh Hand, reconnaiternd id land ant iens Eorlingas ed pro plunder. Pos pau wakt, ia passit pri un bunge om drus ed, ocolo, eet weitwoss un terrible scene. Emend brungos ios kehlen dadwt ab un ghem hag, ia vis tri Orks, paytakgenu ed ployt sub gwaur packs, entre un prokwem liew. Pos uno moment, id diutis uns augend flamme bihsit visible, crehscend hina dum biwiend ex ia fensters. Preter oin, dind alyos Ork sielg tsay id liew. Glihr peigher-ye, waurgend ir stomaks. Is trit sohkwit mox, bet eys rauk vesters eent aflamme, ed is hut ed balstohmit menxu is pit sgwenes id piurn, quod oku guriegh ets corpos. Tod action yis alters do gleihadfalls, ed ies ghohd payn-ye nastahe. Entrim, id krov ios liew emsit piurn, ed idso dember biru, yeisend vehrsa om bliutes hog in id air. Wayt geirnd-ye iens Orks

ed id brandend dorev, Rilwen natrohcit kyid Deigh. Ye alya waurmens unte id sehkwnd hor ia vis Orks in id distance, bet ia ghohd vergihes iens sat facil-ye. Kun ia siefer perodh, id pallid luce ios dien succubh un aus noct, entriht ab un teug samghat om kyehrsen aglus. Quan arrivit ad id Deigh, un khuld garbi inkiep falle. Un kal nigwohm ud id ardhen bollwehrg os Helms Deigh : Gamling, attention ! Un eorling currt prosch id deigh. Au un drukh yisen ab Saruman. Gwehmte oku !

Dind id voco cricit ad Rilwen : Eorling, sei ste oin, mehldte vos ! Som Rilwen, Eorling ed Wakhter ! ia karuxit menxu ia curs perodh. Dehlgo kwehre report ad Gamling. Est is ter ? Is est ! Gamling isswo bahsit gwehmend-ye kyant Rilwen ep id Hornstrad.

Eys gastalt eet pondost, speit eysa yars. Quod est tien report ? sprohg is. Ho skapen un Ork weirlagher in id Westfold ed gwehmneum kye vos con important information, declarit ia. Ah, vos recogneihm, gwenak. Ne eete yu ep guardia in id Burg ye tod yawm ? Bet vos interrumpo. Dahte vies report, suspeco sessiet baygh interessant.

Bo recess kyid bollwehrg menxu ia inkiep sien storia. Rilwen lohg ad Gamling quantum ia mohm de ia wakyas ios dien, pati sien weitwoddias de Herulfs parlar con iom Dunlendisk oispion claus id Cauddwor. Gamling, lakin, remien destull skeptic de ays wildo storia, kam toy Reiders quoy hieb ghaten ambh i kay aure id. Habte pruvs de ta jects yu lehcte ? sprohgit Gamling. No, Draukhting, ia jawieb skeud-ye. Bet ne leugho. Mehno od Herulf est un khayn ed hat passet documents al Peind. Ed sei ne rhalto, saygiem sont alyi agents ios Albh Hand bayna nies rangs. Dank pro vies opinions ed report, conclus Gamling. Confrontesiem Herulf quando sessiet wakt. Bet nun, dehlgmos nos prepare pro id siege. Id Albh Hand marchesiet ep nos honoct !

Ia buit manden ep id Burgsbollwehrg. Menxu Rilwen trohc ex id Deigh do id chossee ios Burg, un oway akster med un tusent vocen erup ud ia walls ios Hornburg. Ia vols kay vide quo causit un talg joy. Tod vid liv ays kerd ed spirit, tem quem ia scricit ed joinit id khor. Prosch id Deigh eet uno menegh yeudmen, bet ne ordinaren yeudmen. In ir vanguardia rid un djogan quos bander dik id tamkha iosswo Roy. Theoden gwohm do Helmsdeub ! Rilwen spohcit kun id vanguardia arrivit ad id Deigh, ed Theoden, perambhen ab maung buland ed kamatih jenchis, bahsit con Gamling. Ia khiek sib stambhes khisses od id Burg eet salwt ed ghehdiet repulge un schturm exswo Mordor, esdi tuichiet ielg barack, cell ed torm !

Reiders bipasseer bay kun trohceer kya Megil Dwors. Oin stopit, vidend iam ghange, hissit iam ub ep sien reidbiest. Ne tehrpte ghange quando sont ekwi ! is iey. Kheptenn, ed dank ! ia iey. Bet quoy sont ? sprohg ia, stahnd ad dwo alyens reiders ep oin ekwo quod passit ant i. Ex vasyens creatures ios Medioghehrd, bibahsit ays sokwi Eorling, un Dwergh ed un Elf kam yu reide con nos ! Gimli ed Legolas sont ir nams, sekwent quo ho klun.

Rilwen dieum de to ed khiekit ghabe kam Theoden, ia credih maraz ed dwoibohndt pro aiw in Meduseld, ghohd iter rides con uno mier Eored. Ia eet yakin od neid stragner ghohdit dar wakye. Steighend ghom claus id Megil Dwor, ia dienk iter iom Reider. Rilwen buit mandet ep id parapett ios Burgs uder wall uper id Megil Dwor, ed ia preparit sien lonc ed sien isus. Ies yeudmi ambh iam se pariet, ia khiss id tension ios gwehmtur boi. Honoct, ies Orks esient ays victims, we ia esiet ir victim !

Id Cumb eet kohldern in un semper sworder noct, dohrn ghyant ab knarnd explosions om blixa; bet ia rlayus ne bad sikw ir gwaur seuyklads. Dat wakt passit lent-ye, ies Rohhiric defensors ios Hornburg ex Edoras rangeer-se ep ia walls, augend id agia ed bringhend idafi loncs. Tun, ex id temos gwohm un rudho diutis, ed kwohk id hol Cumb ses aflamme. Sarumans mier heir ieg prosch. Ies retroguardia defensors in Helms Deigh buir diaspohrt kun id masse om Orks ed khiter menscens irrup ep id bollwehrg ed nagwahsit kya inner walls iosswo Hornburg. Sword ed prabh iswo bipluk ! Id Boi ios Hornburg inkiep ! Rilwen biyisit sien isus wild-ye in prayghesto do id vreinkend masse os gadraukhtos niter. Id swon om daunet ed boi kien gwaur ep ays aurs kun id kwalayo ieug in intensitat med ielg nov schturm. Quan ia buit reducta do tri skeudils, un voc, musical ed prabh, bahsit prosch apter iam. Eorling, stabilise tien hand quando sleus id gwiya.

Ia vols, ed vis od stahnt apter id niebst merlon eet Legolas, alyos Elf ! Bahsit iter : Eme un tarja, ed lass id strehl plukes sure !

Rilwen spohc iom Elf trehce kye sien embrasure ed med dwo mliak sleusas siens damar, hihsit id gurgule om dwo Orks. Eys victims fiell bet buir fauran tayt ab un swarm alyen. Ielg skeudil dehlct trehve ! is iey.

Ia abvols ed spohc sien tri etiloikw isus. Sien kerdo drahnd, ia siz ub id prest, ed trehvend un tarja niter, traxit ed slu. Ays presto strehlen buit sohkwt ab dwo alters. Rilwen hih dwo Orks quoy volveer ed mox disparihr. Ia emsit kaur-ye un ziel med sien isus bet se expos ibs skapts al peind. Vasya swordptorisus strohlen kyam pripluk iam. Ia hieb druve-ye noroc ! Sarumans creatures hiebeer pliohgen xubhes udglehmlayters tiel ia embrasures ios wall. Ja, einskatus hieb inkapen dexter quem Rilwen engwn id parapett. Id topp uns laytergwohm prosch iam, ed meis alyo defensor skohpt iam. Id layter scuss. Semanghen glohm id !

Rilwen gwup id topp ios layter ed inkiep repulge id, bet Orkisk loncs strohl ep iam ! Oin tom skapts trohv ed vurn iam. Med un staur xouba, ia pit disloge id glehmlayter. Bet id layter eet pior gwaur, ed darno nitos ! Ia khiek move id. Un Ork arrivet atopp id layter swohng sien tract einso kyam. Is missit Rilwen, bet repuls iam ud id embrasure. Ia Pwolelf udkardkieschit sien eins ed alexit contra iom med sien schild. Ia vurn id bemern ios Pwolorkios qui collapsit ep id daraja. Rilwen hieb marloubiht iom Pwolorko quosschi keiwi eent gvohnen apter iom ab alyens yeudmens os Rohan. Tod sensto schturm ep ays longe os wall hieb sgwesen unte oik moments, ed i defensors her hieb wakto kay se regruppe. Legolas, qui hieb taiper regwohmen do vid, udkardkieschit sien tweiser eins, ed recuperit vasya strohlt isus is ghohd trehve. Ia sa-joinit iom quan, brusk-ye, ia buit forkalt ab un veuter officier. Orks eent dwinghend id Deuben Wall ! Ia curs engwn id parapett con circa dwogim alyens jenchis kye tod Dwor. Tun just, ia ieur un enormo crasch kam dec stohntercutts ed vis un blix reflegen ab id bollwehrg. Quod vraj ? Yeudmi crier ud id Deub apter id wall. Orks oistrohm unte id deuyker ! Ies yeudmi quoy hamrahr iam buir divers kye tod nov tehrg. Rilwen niek id Deub unte un long drab niter ud id wall, ed ter vis maung Orks ed menscens. Neid quartier in tod rarzplen boi ! Ed Rilwen se xubh do ! Tun ia visit semject special. Plurs iom Orks chargeer uno mon gastalt. Eet Gimli, is Dwergh ! Bet quaytkwe hajoumeer iom, id samo numer secten Orkcaps rik rollend-ye. Ed nayvs kowpeer-se. Rilwen vis un Goblin geirnd iom Dwergh, kay eme iom retos. Con un crie os Nehc ei Albh Hand, ia Pwolelf rusch ep iom assassin.

So Ork, vidend ays attaque, disvols ud Gimli. Rilwen nic tom Ork, ed sielv iom Dwergh !

Menxu ia sa-boyit protiev alyum Ork, un blixo cuss in id gorge, ed ia spohc ub kyid behrg uper id Burg. Ter, steighend id behrgpaund kyid plateau, eet un Eorling. Ia habiet kassamen ep Helms kurgan od eet Herulf ! Eet is oiskapend we preparend-se ad duce un Dunlendisk force do id boi ? Rilwen drahsit ex id boi in un aunspeh peiten kay kape iom khayn. Kun ia hieb udglohmen id behrg ed gwohmen ep id plateau, ia trohv Herulf qui skohpt iam. Eys einso hieng protiev eys gon. Un gwaur seuy tohng i dwo, ed blix hihsit ia varsas ios Thrihyrne. Id echo ios stohnter rollit ghom kyid Deub, scuttend iaswo raudhs ios ghyor.

Mien Dunlending prients ne hant ja arriven, iey Herulf, quos voc eet darm ed confident. Has khanyet nies folk, Herulf, ma ? Rilwen iskwit tod werd sammel gwehmend-ye prosch ed seizend-ye sien eins. Nies folk ? is goilit. Tien folk ! Mien pater est un wir os Dunland gvohnt ab tien sell peurst Theodred pre gnahsim !

Un blixo cuss proscher iter. Petrasplinters pluk in quanta directions in un bodereihnd boum. Ed to est kafi pro khianat ? formulit Rilwen, meis kam un facto quem un question. Est un raison kafi pro me !

Herulfs miecho stayg blixit ex eys kardkasch. Movit perodh kay attaque ed boilas murchit Rilwens ansu. Ed katuer ep tod seuybaten rock. Herulfo vurn ser-ye Rilwens xiongbu; vahsit replage iam kun slidit ed eys eins brohg sub iom ! Tun est med un choyk od is khayn gvohn iam Pwolelf.

Id pallid luce ios auror, neimpediht ab nebhs, sikw uper Rilwen. Comparet con id tumult os yarlay boi, quant kwohk sakwn ed still. Quan ia hieb ghohden sammel sien forces, ia stahsit ub ed trohcit kyid Burg. Id Albh Hand hieb est marloubiht. Kun Rilwen gwahsit prosch id inner Burg, ays prient, Doerhere, prohp. Gwenak, is iey, quayque ia ne khiss tem yun ye tod dien, io khiek te trehve ed biey tu hiebst esen gvohnen. No, ia jawieb. Ne ho dauten, quayque kheisso io som. Yaghi, iey Deorhere, tod est boi. Kam hams wey uperwaldht talg numers yarlay ? ia sprohg. Quant kwohk lust pro nos. Erkenbrand rik con sien diaspohrt reiders plus oin : Gandalf Greismantel ! Hant gwohmen ep id caud os Sarumans heir ed bohng id. Ed nun, vraj hat est nudt. Prehgo ? ia sprohg. Quod ? Gwehm hetro ed vid.

Bo Rilwen ed Deorhere stigh do id topp ios bollwehrg ios inner Burg ed, tetos, spohc per id Cumb. Ep id stahsit un vast forest, quer neid hieb staht prever ! Ies Dunlendings capituleer quan id boi buit sohlt, bet ies Orks fug. Passeer do tod kabus-forest ed hams aurt neid de iens pon. Est kamsei ia drus habient sorpt vasyens.

Rilwen stier incredule. Est hol Gandalfs over, sei tu me sprehcs. Bet mae ! Ia affaires im brukhs ne me concerne !

Pos to, Deorhere duxit Rilwen ghom ud id wall do id inner ghehrd quer oisriensit, dehlgend prispehce alyo besoyn. Ant Rilwen stahsit taiper Gamling is Veut, ed quayque eys eins eet meg-ye gherben, is eet nevurnen. Gamling, iey Rilwen. Som masrour ob vide yu ste sahikh wa salim ! Yaghi, is antwohrd. Gwenak, io khiek trehve Herulf ghes; ed ne ho vis iom yarlay. Woid yu quo wakyit ei ? Ho katuen in vain protie iom bet is niterplieg me ! Prever, is hieb saygen mi od eys khianat eet un kwoina ob id neicen eysios pater ab Peurst Theodred. Ya, vos ho vis katue yarlay, nabahsit Gamling. Yu eete brave ed habte suacombatten. Pro vies ghestern wehrgs, ed id menos ho viden eni, vos karugo Reiderin ios Mark ! Acceptet yu tod honor ? Yakinst ! antwohrdit Rilwen, daumend de sien sell fortune. Meg gohd. Tun ghendte tod eins, prevst ghesorn ab Reider Dwimmerthane, kam symbol vosters wirt !

Gamling anac un argu eins quos pomel eet bedehn samt un bert glend cristall. Ghendend id eins, Rilwen liv id hog, saygend-ye : Rohan ! Stahm ka tien derv slouga !
