VENTURES INTO THE REMOTE (RP)

Eonwe felt a spear rake his thigh and turned around, riposte setting the attacker offguard and allowing Eonwe to counter-attack, lunging forward with the huge sword which cut down the spear of Minelmar. The Scion of Manwe unsheathed his Maiar-blade as his brothers and sisters moved in on Eonwe keeping him busy.

The former Banner Bearer of Manwe took a defensive statutory position, deflecting off the spear lunges but not all of them. Eonwe was poked under the shoulder and felt a spearhead lodge inside his left armpit. His armor was providing safety for his mortal form's most valuable organs and systems but he was still loosing against the Scions of Manwe.

"Why? Why do this? Why slay your brother?" Eonwe cried as he punched one of the Scions with the hilt off his sword.

"Because you disobeyed. A true Maiar does not disobey. You are no Maiar."

"My only choice was to obey or be killed. I am a Maiar like you."

"You're no longer one of us!" One of them cried, stabbing Eonwe in his hamstring.

"I am one of you. I will never stop being one of you."
Eonwe said throwing his blade down, "This is not right. I will not kill you. I am a Maiar of Eru. And I shall not kill my people anymore. That is the will of Eru. If you follow Illuvitar you will stop."

Minelmar walked up to Eonwe, grabbed his chestplate with one hand and using the Maiar-blade in the other hit him with its hilt multiple times. Eonwe fell back and was caught by two of the Scions behind him. His nose was broken and his face bloodied, he looked up at Minelmar and saw his brother staring back at him.

"Because I respected you. Admired you. I will take you back alive and let Manwe pass judgment." Then the Maia turned and left the Prancing Pony, his siblings dragging Eonwe behind him.

Dimitri, Cardiloc and Ha'zi had snuck out the back of the inn and onto the rooftops of Bree. They saw Eonwe's body being pulled out of the bar's exit. Their Maia had been disposed of.

They also saw Sigeric running headfirst towards the Scions of Manwe. He would be caught!

Sigeric saw the tall figures ducking underneath the Prancing Pony's doorway and walking down its steps, the body of Eonwe being dragged behind them, bloody and wounded.

"Hmm, I'll let you go and guide you out of my forests, but, I do want you to do something for me. Keep this 'bad guy' away from me and my realm. Capisce?" Aasim said to him. What a strange elven word.

"We should go back for him... shift maybe..." Cardiloc suggested you Dimitri desperately as they watched Eonwe being dragged off. He then noticed Sigeric ahead. "He's going to get himself killed!"
 
''I mean, if worst comes to worst, prepare a few water buckets? You know, villains really, really hate trees.'' Deslan brushed his hands together and nodded, turned around and waved. ''Tell Elwing I said hi, yes? She might know me, or not. I don't remember.'' He walked up to what he assumed was his escort - or waiters, everyone had armour here. ''So, to the Old Forest Road, yes?''
 
Sigeric witnessed the six warriors leave the Prancing Pony, dragging Eonwe with them. The Dalishman quickly ducked into the shadows of the nearest building, observing the Maiar.
 
"Elven road." Aasim said, waving his hand and adjusting his seat so he could pull out some grapes from his fruit bowl and down them.

The lead elf took Deslan back to his horse, returned his scabbard and led him along the Elven road.

Thoruk saw Iver walk in and toss some gold at the waitress and chef. He'd paid for them. Marco burped and stood to follow the Dalishman. Grimnir and Thoruk did as well and found the most unusual of sights outside.....

---------

As they discussed whether or not to engage the Maiar, a bright light began to glow around them as they looked to the stars and a fireball formed around them. The brightness was too much for their own eyes but they could glimpse angelic like wings on the backs of the Maiar just before they disappeared, the fireball flying into the sky and through the clouds.

Sigeric saw the Maiar vanish, or was it more like flight or teleportation? He couldn't really fathom it. But, what was certain was that Eonwe and they were gone.

Thoruk, Marco, Iver and Grimnir witnessed the bright light ascend into the sky and disappear. What had happened whilst they were inside that bar?

"Here you go" Iver paid the waitress and gave her a big tip for the waiting. "Have a wonderful night and we need to go guys" He said and gave Thruk and marco the clothes and armour he brought to them. "We need to gear up and check what just happened" Iver told Thoruk and marco. As he walked outside
 
Even after the lies Eonwë had told Ha'zi, he still trusted the man, as he knew the Maia was also deceived time and time again. He helped them in their moment of need, and even lost his life on the island trying to help them. Now, it was time for the boy to repay Eonwë-- is what Ha'zi thought he was going to do as all of a sudden the Maiar disappeared. What.? What happened? Why didn't he run after him? He had the thought and was moving, but it's as if something stopped him from performing this action. Strange....

But now... it's too late. What would they do now? He looked at the others for a possible answer.
 
'C'mon, let's find the others. We're going to Rivendell." Dimitri said. He focused on the task at hand, escaping Bree to reach the safety of the Hidden Home. "If we don't find the others in time, I'm leaving without waiting." He declares.
 
The halfling blinks in confusion. "Who in the world is this Sharkey? As to the other questions, it'll sound a bit far fetched, but... fate led me to work aboard a ship for the last few years. It's a hard life. That's where I got so thin, and that's where I got my scars."
 
"Aye lad, took you a while, but thanks for the clothes." they migthy dwarf says as he putts on the armour. "Aye, I'm not sure If I realy want to know what that was, I bet nothing good but you're right, let's check what happend." Thoruk says as they walk outside.
 
Sigeric saw Thoruk, Grimmir, Iver and Marco walk out onto the street to where the fireball had ascended, scorch marks tattered the street where it had landed.

Dimitri, too, saw them down in the street. Cardiloc and Ha'zi were with him. Would they attempt to climb down the house to get to their friends?

Deslan was nearly two hours into the journey when a spider ran across the road. It was shortly killed by the elven escort sent with him. However, he did notice someone else come across the road. Some old hag sprouting magical prophecies of doom who smoked some mushrooms before running back into the wilderness. Five more grueling hours and they emerged out of the forest. It was night and Deslan was tired.

"On your way." The lead elf said, taking his escort and returning to Mirkwood.

Deslan was out of that forest and saw miles of plain ahead of him. He was exhausted, sweaty and needed a drink. The compass still pointed directly west.

"Okay, well, Sharkey was this old man that terrorized the Shire and got shanked by his own men after he was exiled from it by old Frodo Baggins a year back. Anyway, that doesn't explain why you're so young lookin'? What sorta juices you take?" Pomona said. It was evident he wasn't getting anywhere with her.

Ha'zi would work his way down from the rooftops of the inn, his mind a flurry of thoughts. Eonwë is gone, so how are we going to make it to Rivendell? Do the others know the directions? And what do we do from there? And what do we do when we get to Mordor? And what do we do--

Ugh, these thoughts annoyed the boy. Feeling so hopeless after the helpful Maia was lost again. There has to be someone they can find that will help them.

But for now, they needed to leave. After finally getting down to the street, Ha'zi addressed the others, "What do we do now?"
 
"Ah, I dunno. Maybe I've got some of Bilbo Baggins' luck (is the old fellow still alive?). Or maybe the sea did me some good. I wouldn't know, really, I haven't had a good look at myself for some time now."

He looks at her in the eyes. "Can I see them now?"
 
"Fine. I'll wake them up. Come," She led him back in the hobbit-hole house and told him to wait in the living room. After a few minutes of anxious waiting, Pomona returned, wobbling along with two boys in tow. They were teenager hobbits. One was rather tall and the other pretty short. Both had their mother's noses but Daugo could see some of him in them. The taller boy had his nose and the younger, although of questionable parentage, seemed to have his eyes. Both shuffled awkwardly forward, the older one refusing to meet Daugo's eyes and the younger shying behind their mother.

Wolves howled in the night as Deslan rested. He heard something nearby, a growl. Then the crunch of soil under foot.

Deslan opened his eyes and hung onto the rock to stand up and regain knowledge of his surroundings. He unsheathed his sword with his left hand, his index on the small button. His right hand bended downwards, while a few cogs in his forearm opened a compartment.
He was ready to do some noise.
 
"What is Rivendell?" Cardiloc questioned Dimitri. "And I would sooner return to Dunland to see my family," He added, sighing.
