Tol-in-Gaurhoth LI: The Pain of Wargs - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

The Wargs had become more vicious this day; resentment had flared up, caused by the murderers in their midst. Legate garnered more votes than any other, and it was decided that he should die. But as his would-be executioners rounded on him, a terrifying transformation occured. Legate writhed and twisted, and he grew to a great size; becoming a form mighty and magnificent, yet also dreadful; and such a look of wickedness was in his eyes as the Wargs had never before seen. This fearsome spectre stood poised, waiting for battle. The Wargs pounced upon him, and they fought a brutal exchange. The stranger was remarkably powerful, and even all the Wargs together were struggling with him, but then they heard a deep, booming laughter, and they stopped to look at where it had come from.

Brinniel had not yet joined proceedings. She stood there, her unnatural form trembling, as if about to burst. The demented gaze she sported was proof enough that she was no real Warg. She cast aside her skin, so it seemed, and grew into a figure so similar to what Legate had become.

It cried out: "Manwë! Thou hast tried to cripple the Wargs, but how it has turned out -- they have helped me cripple thee!"

And he flung himself at his foe, a devastating collision that rent a chasm in the middle of the ancient Wargish sanctuary. Manwë had time enough to cry "Melkor!" before their clash; afterward he shrieked, a sound so terrifying some Wargs threw themselves to the ground. And then he was gone.

Melkor danced to the top of a stone pillar, looked back at the Wargs and smirked. Some gave chase, but Melkor flew off the side of the hold, down into the valley, and disappeared victorious. He had achieved his goal.

The Wargs, bemused though they were, soon began to remember their old friends Legate and Brinniel, who had been murdered by the two mightiest beings in Arda mere hours ago.
