[Amanaduial the archer]

The two witches hung back from the lord. Doubting the warlord had noticed they were in the room, they had established a mind link so they would not be noticed at all, although they hadnt used it for a while. Aman sat in disgusted silence, rubbing her neck.
The uruk does not know what he was doing. We will show him. Thrakatburz was the first to break the silence of their minds.
He knew. He knew he should not have leaid hands on me, and if he ever does again, he shall loose his hands!
However, I couldnt help noticing he was not the only one whos hands were going everywhere... Aman glanced at the other, but Thrakat kept her gaze straight ahead. The red haired witch couldnt help noticing her shudder slightly as she remember.
As I said, he is nothing and soon we shall be away. Ah, the party begins...
The Two Witches attention was taken up by what was happening beneath the dark rafters of the roof where they sat.
They listened in silence as the parties 'negotiated'. Then came the bit Aman had almost sensed.
"Well, what do you want?" Aman heard the quaver in Elennas voice as she spoke; they both knew what was coming.
"What do you think I want, wench? I want to kill you. Right in front of your whole damned army. Your life for your lord's."
"Done." Elenna stood.
"What?" Lindir and Aduchil shouted. "You can't!"
"Yes, I can, and I will."
At that moment inside Aman something cracked. The terrible stillness inside her was shattered.
"No." It was a whisper in her head at first, but then it got louder, she was repeating it, out loud. "No. No. No! NO!" She stood, but the other witch grabbed her arm before she jumped. The others were looking up now at the two witches.
"Aman...." Elenna stared at her friend standing in the darkness, horror in her voice as she realised what had happened to the witch...

Lindir stared in horror at the uruk as he said the words, then at Elenna as she agreed.
"No!" Him and Ala both stepped forward and shouted, but Elenna held up her hand.
"NO!" Now they all stared towards the gallery and saw the 2 witches on the rafter. It was not a surprise to Lindir as much, as he had heard them conversing, but hadnt believed it. Their eyes met for a moment before Aman jumped back into the shadows of the rafters and all that was left was the sound of her fading footsteps. Elenna simply stared ahead, her eyes blank...was that a tear in her eye....?
