Sador Labadal wasn’t a guy you immediately noticed when he stepped into a room. After the accident Sador had become more and more solitary, enjoying more or less only the occasions young Túrin spent with him. He had no family, no chance to serve at war, no particular skills but some basic carpentry – yet Húrin had seen him as a good man who served his father well and had offered him a place in his household.

This day it was different. Sador looked confused when people started turning to him with their suspicions. “Me? I haven’t done anything to merit notice! I’ve just helped around, as always.”

It seemed no-one had a really strong case against the old man, but most people still found him fishy in a way or another.

“He’s odd. He doesn’t sit with others or party with others.”

“He just hides in the corners”

“Have you ever heard him gossiping like a decent person would?”

“And he has touched most of the infected – he must at least have the illness himself just because of that!”

So there it was. Sador was voted to be moved into the quarantine.

The old man limped to the stairs and then turned towards the villagers. “Sorry guys, I’m not man anymore to stand up against those who wish me ill. But something inside me tells I should…”

He gave a pause and people saw his whole body starting to shake incontrollably. His eyes turned around in their sockets and drool started pouring out from his mouth.

“Quick now!” Algund shouted and Gethron rushed to help him. Together they pushed the ever more shaking and lowly growling body of the creature whom they had known as Sador inside the Hall – and bolted the door.
