From across the room

Calamir stirred in a far corner of the room. By the flicker of the lamplight she seemed almost a shadow as she sat in a high-backed chair near the door. Rising to her feet she surveyed her odd collection of companions.

"My heart is heavy within me to hear talk such as this. I mean disrespect to none in what I am about to say, but I feel it my duty to speak my mind. This errand seems foolhardy to me. No, Talondin, allow me to finish.

"I have lived for many years in the Hidden Realm of Lorien. I see that some of you are familiar with the name. I was sent by my queen, the Lady of the Forest, with messages which at the time seemed of little consequence. My mission is complete and my journey for now is simply to return home. Despite my misgivings and, quite honestly, my fear, of this errand, I feel that somehow my fate is caught up with this party. Perhaps the mission I was sent on was simply a vehicle to bring me into your company. In any case, it was foretold long ago that Calamir would encounter the lifeless in their homes. For these reasons, and others, I will accompany this party, though I seek no treasures of my own."

With this speech, she returned quietly to her chair. None spoke for several moments and it seemed to all that the noble lady was less joyful than before. Despite the gloom, however, Calamir's eyes shone with the knowledge that her ancient doom was finally upon her.
