[Amanaduial the archer]

Amanaduial too sat in her chamber, her eyes closed as if relaxing. She hadnt had time to think over all that had happened and it was coming back to her all too suddenly now...all the memories...the screams...
She tried to shut them out from her mind, and in the process felt something else there, as she had done in the council with Ala. Something alien, yet familiar...probing, but why did she almost welcome it?

"Good day, Madan witch."
Aman opened her eyes, irritation shinig through every part of her. Turning she looked towards the door and saw the dwarf lounging there.He smiled
"Oh sorry did I disturb you?" He laughed, but then grew more serious. "No, im sorry, Amanaduial, I willcome back later." He turned as if to go, but Aman stopped him.
why did i do that? what was the point? Gods, Im getting manners, Ive definitly been spending too much time around Elenna...
"Dont...dont go...Im sorry, Ive had a very bizarre few days, erm....?" She trailed off.
"Therin, grandson of Thorin Oakenshield. I like to get to know my allies before battles."
Aman, like most elves, was very wary of dwarves, but as she was usually pretty wary of anything that moved, this amiable, humourous midget was not as bad as it could have been, dwarf or not...
Sighing, she told herself she would just have to resume the mind exercises later, and stepped towards the door, indicating outside.
"Shall we walk, my...friend?" The dwarf looked surprised, but nodded and followed, glad for the company.
"Glad to Lady, glad to..." After all, he hardly had aything against witches...
