Hey buddy it's your turn. :)

Hello 😀

Elves -Hobbit based (Aquanthe and Wick)

Irime Greenleaf

Irime had slithered down the rope and tied Finrod to it in such a mood no beast dare attack her. She was so focused on her task she wasn't even concerned about orcs bothering her. Once back up top she sat by the edge of the ledge and took a breather. The battle and now the recovery mission had really worn her out. She pushed the young elf's body crossways over the saddle and walked the horse back to the camp.

She could see the pikes from where she stood and she had always been somewhat touchy on the subject of burning the orc bodies. She would rather just let them rot where they lay. Orcs were more likely to eat the bodies of their elven kills than anything.She sighed and when she got back to the remains of their camp she pulled out Finrod's blanket and wrapped him in it. She did this while Luthien was busy and he never looked over to see his cousin's body.

Irime walked over to Luthien and sat him on the ground. She knew he was in shock and he needed medical attention. Unsure of Kreneas' skills in medicine she took a look and determined that Kreneas had stopped the bleeding which was good. She reached over and grabbed her bag and pulled out a pouch of herbs and she began to chant as she pushed the herbs into the palm of her hand to crush them a little more and then she covered his wound in them. She knew it hurt but she was still frustrated with him.

"How were you two scouts? Scouts fight orcs in the line of scouting. You saw both of us leave camp how could you not stay with Finrod? You are taught that from a young child that you are safer in pairs than alone! You KNEW there were orcs in the area and that we had to be careful." She caught her temper flaring and she pulled it back so she wouldn't just torture the young man. The wound was almost fully healed but she was too tired to keep chanting to make it keep working.

Luthien was nodding at her. "I know, it's my fault as much as his. He was messing with me and I was annoyed with him so I let him go on his own. I shouldn't have let him."

Irime had lain next to the fire yawning with both her sword, and her bow and arrows on her back. Her head lay on the ground. "No! You shouldn't have." She looked across the fire at Kreneas and smiled softly as she fell asleep.

Irime Greenleaf

Irime found herself fighting two of the orcs at once. She was working them against each other but when the one lifted her over his head she kicked him with her free foot and bashed him in the side of his face. He dropped her and she kicked off of him and slammed bodily into the other orc knocking him to the ground. Getting to her feet she was breathing hard at all of the physical work she was putting in. Both orcs got up slower and she saw Luthien dart over cautiously and stab the second orc in the head. As it wailed he let go of his sword and it stuck in the orcs head. Irime stabbed the other in the heart. She spun around and didn't see anymore orcs in the campsite.

Irime could see Kreneas on the other side of the camp and he appeared to be alright. Luthien was bleeding and his left arm was dangling but he was alive. "Finrod! Where are you?" She turned on Luthien. "What happened to him?" Luthien looked down at her feet. She raised her sword to his neck and lifted his face to hers. "You'll tell me now."

"He went to the treeline to...uh, to pee. I never saw him again." Irime was furious and she ran to the treeline to see if by any luck at all he were alive. She ran up and down it but this far away from the fire it was much darker. She grabbed onto the trees and looked over the ledge and saw Finrod's body contorted in a way that there was no chance of life. "Damn..."

Irime came back to camp and packed up what was left of her tent and grabbed a long coil of rope from her gear and went to get her horse. "What are you doing?" Luthien asked her cautiously.

"I'm going down there to get his body and bring it up so we can take him home in the morning. I'm not taking you into another battle." With that she grabbed her horse's reigns and walked towards the treeline.

Irime Greenleaf

Irime pulled her sword a little out of her sheath and it glowed blue. She jerked her head up and darted past Kreneas at breakneck speed. "ORCS!" Her burst of speed even caught her off guard. She just knew the boys were going to be in trouble if the orcs got there first. She pulled her sword since she had left her bow and arrow at the campsite. When she got there with Kreneas hot on her heels she tackled an orc that was picking Luthien off of the ground by the neck. Luthien's expression was one of pure terror. The orc not realizing that there were more warriors thought this would be an easy ambush, until he was knocked down and he lost hold of the elf. Roaring about his fun being interrupted he got to his feet as Irime slammed an arrow into his neck and kept right on going on to the next orc.

Her eyes had counted at least eight or nine of the monstrous beings. She wasn't watching Kreneas exactly. She did see him and she had seen him fight before so she wasn't worried. She was more concerned about the two inexperienced elves who had never taken an orc hit before. Irime picked up the sword from the ground as she went. Ducking and stabbing as she fiercely battled she shoved Luthien's sword into his hand as she kicked the orc backwards that had him cornered again. "FIGHT or DIE!" She yelled to him trying to get him to move defensively at least.

She moved directly into the next orc as the last one she cut down fell to the ground.

Irime Greenleaf

Irime had been staring at the night sky and had forced the horrid memories back just a little. When Kreneas appeared and started speaking she smiled softly to herself. She knew he needed to talk as much as she needed to just sit and listen to him. It hadn't been a successful battle for him and his partner either.

Not sure how long he would speak about the reasons they did what they did she leaned her head on his shoulder a little. When Irime did that she felt a slight change in him but she didn't say anything she just smiled. She knew that as part of the guard it meant that they were taking on danger but it was still difficult losing a partner of any kind but especially one you were close to.

"Amrod was my best friend for over sixty years. Losing someone that close is just difficult no matter how it happens. My partner before him died in battle as well. You should consider yourself very brave for becoming my partner. You might die at any given moment." She smirked slightly at her jest. Her voice turned serious a moment.

"The only thing I could have changed was something I was not allowed to do. If he were fighting you two and I had not blacked out from hitting my head on that boulder when I landed, maybe I could have gotten to him to try to save his life. Honestly, I wouldn't have been able to repair that much damage and he would likely have been crippled for the rest of his life." She looked down a moment and sighed. "He wouldn't have wanted to live like that. We had discussed it many times."

"Don't worry too much about me on the battlefield. I manage for the most part very well. Before we face this monster again is there anything you wish me to know? I would want you to know that you should not put me before your own life nor should you save me if I were unable to be whole."

Marybeth was asleep. She was dreaming about the attack on the city and she was back there. This time she was able to save the queen but instead she saw the kids slaughtered by the enemy. She screamed in her sleep and scared herself awake. When her eyes opened in terror she realized that she was drenched in sweat. She got up and went to wash her face and to calm down.

@Aquanthe

I gave you a start into his battle with Blurg. I had his start while hers ended. I hope that was okay.

Irime Greenleaf

Irime glanced at the cousins and the image of her and Amrod came vividly into her memory. As the horrible account replayed in her mind she saw the moment that she was out of her element. She was very successful until Blurg appeared. She was finishing off one orc when Blurg hit her with his fist with enough force to slam her into a large boulder. She had been knocked out for a moment. Her eyes opened and she was immediately up on her feet and looking to see where he had gone. He was bigger than any she had fought before him.

"Orcs have enormous strength. They can overpower you easily so you must be faster and more accurate than they are. They will hit you with more force than any other creature you've encountered." She quietly spoke to the scouts.

As Irime's eyes had reopened they had registered Blurg and Amrod fighting fiercely. Amrod took a hit to the back of the head with the creature's wooden club and Blurg bent him backwards over his knee and was about to break his back when Irime jumped on the Orc with her sword and stabbed him through the sinewy flesh of his shoulder. She had shoved the blade deeply into Blurg's left upper back. The pain made him roar out and in his frenzied state he literally bent Amrod in half. She heard Amrod's bones crunching and screams. Irime was punched and felt her body go flying over the nearest ledge. When she hit the ground her eyes registered seeing Kreneas and his partner just as Blurg launched himself at them swinging his club and an axe at them. At that moment she had passed out unconscious. Blurg had followed her looking to finish her off. Instead he had found more warriors.

"There is no way to prepare for that kind of strength and viciousness in just a few moments or hours." The look of pain and anguish on her face as she remembered Amrod's agony as he died was enough to quell her appetite for food. "Excuse me." She got up and walked down the hill a little ways to wipe the tears away.
