Elwyn supported Elanor as they walked over to a large tree. The healer set the witch down against it's sturdy trunk. Elanor was exhausted, and fell asleep almost immediately. Elwyn sat with her, watching her as she slept. She didn't hear Harolas coming up behind her.
"Why do you care for that witch so, Elwyn Arienwen?" he asked, sitting down beside her.
"She is my friend, Harolas, witch or no."
"You are too trusting. Witches can be treacherous."
"I trust her with my life, Harolas. She could have slain all of us a million times over. Give her a chance."
