*awakes in a strange room*

*stares blankly at the sleeping form next to me*

*remembers the night before*

*smiles slightly, feeling a twinge of affection and compassion that quickly dissipates*

Edit: Oh look. An R Rating.

*spends the day in the wilderness away from people*

*eventually winds up in a room in the pub*

*can't help but smile vindictively, hopeful Nimloth heard Amrod's screams...*

*comes to the firm conclusion that there are distinct perks to being an adult*

*smirks*

*returns to Tirion*

*goes for a walk, taking in the town for the first time from an adult perspective*

*decides to go out*

*picks up old clothes and empties out pockets, moving an assortment of coins and random things into new clothes*

*finds a vial of a sinister looking liquid*

*remembers*

*goes for a walk along the darkned beach, fingering the vial and thinking about my sinister benefactor*

*falls asleep for an afternoon nap after some serious playing on the beach*

*wakes up, head excruciatingly painful, awash with a mixture of strange emotions*

*blinks*

Nana?

*wanders around the garden*

*remembers Lomion's talk of his 'friend'*

*vaguely wonders who he is and if he'd be my friend too...*

*feels slightly better at the prospect of getting to go away for a while*

*ventures outside into the garden*

*finds some pieces of paper and crayons*

*starts scribbling violently, creating a gruesome picture of Nimloth with her intestines hanging out and Beren with a severed head*

*smiles slightly*

*carefully folds it up and slips out of room to find an envelope*

*addresses it to Beren and sticks it in a pile of outgoing mail*

*wakes up*

*remembers*

*feels tears trying to well up*

*gets angry, slams fist into wall as hard as possible, desperate not to cry*

*hears an unpleasant crunching noise and feels searing pain shoot through hand*

*looks numbly at it*

*says nothing*
