Setting Sails for Valinor RPG - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Firiel was very pleased that the elves had set up a camp before the nightfall. She was quite hungry and it started to get cold. As the camp was set up, all of them gathered around the fire, warming their cold bodies. They all had a nice meal and they discussed the journey that lay in front of them. They all felt this queer and mixed feeling of excitement and wariness. None of them knew what was before them. They knew however, that they soon had to do some mountain climbing, and that would be dangerous. They were already at the edge of the forest of Lorien. They could all see the high mountain.

As the evening grew on Firiel and the other elves talked merrily to each other. The conversations and stories seemed endless. Soon, however, Firiel got tired and wanted to get some sleep. But as she was getting up Tanroth gave a short nod that she would just have to stay a couple of more minutes, he had obviously something important to say.

Firiel seated once again and tried to listen, but she was too tired to pay attention to what Tanroth said. As a matter of fact she almost fell asleep but Rostion had wakened her in the moment she doped off. Meanwhile, Tanroth had mentioned that the group would head for the mountains towards the Red Horn pass.

"We will walk along the course of the Silverlode River. Then we will come to the entrance to Kazad-dûm, Mirrormere." Tanroth had said while they had been sitting by the fire. All of the elves had been listening carefully- Well, except Firiel-
So they wouldn't miss any details about the journey. Tanroth looked a bit worried, but he seemed to have it all under control, for now anyhow.

He continued he didn't look that worried now, though: "Just beyond the Mirrormere is a path that goes up to the Redhorn Gate. It's called the Dimrill Stair."

When Tanroth had finished the elves just looked on him. None of them said anything for a long time; all of them seemed to be in deep thoughts. The silence however, was broken when Rostion started to sing…
