Re: Starry, starry night

Calimir wandered through what appeared to be an endless maze. She knew that she had been pulled, somehow, into a barrow, but that knowledge was superceded by the need to find the blower of the horn. From the moment the first blast had sounded, Calimir had felt the call of the horn.

Somehow she sensed that she was close to her target. Guided by only the small light of her stone, the elf could see an answering glow ahead of her. She crept around the corner slowly and found the Beorning prone on the floor, hand clutching the horn she had been compelled by earlier.

Calimir noticed that he did not move and that his feet seemed to be wrapped in a green-glowing fabric. Before her eyes, the fabric continued to wrap itself around the large man's legs. With a ferocity that would have startled any onlooker, the smith of Lorien grabbed her dagger and tore the fabric from Valdavar. She uttered the name of the Star Kindler and the green light fled from the cavern.

Wishing that she had been apprenticed as a healer as well as as a smith, Calimir took her water from her pack and bathed the face of the Beorning in it to the slowly fading light of the Calimiri. Once again, she began an incantation to Elbereth and was startled to see the prone figure begin to stir.

Valdavar groaned, and Calimir began to hear from afar the song of Galenwen. As the Beorning lay cold before her, Calimir turned toward the song, and herself began to sing.
