[THE Ka]

"I see. Tis a tragic thing, for eventually, there will be no more Ents, or Entwives or Entings if the rest do not come back," Glirdingo said sadly. "But let us cast away these dark thought's and enjoy each other's company while the night lasts."

Kafkalina was once again awoken to that thought, if the entwives never returned. It had lingered of course, after the ents had discovered of their disappearance, all ents that she knew seemed to receed back into the deep of their forests, or became apathetic and endangered themselves to becoming treeish. It was also from this that some Huorns accepted to take up control in small patches here and there, and thus being confused for real ents by other peoples. The ents were more solitary now, that was true, and even more a mystery to other peoples of arda.

Maybe this journey was what I needed, to see the forest of this world for the trees again. I guess that this adventure will help make these last years the better.

Glirdingo seemed to be in a merry mood, and Kafkalina took it as a sign of the times as well, concerning the elves. The elves were almost in the same situation as the ents, but of course far better, she thought. Though, as old as the two peoples would be, and their time was slowly winding to a farewell, why not make them joyful ones?

" You are quite right fair Glirdingo, time has been given to mourning for the entwives, and we ents never give something so long to think unless it is worth such long thoughts, and of course, old enttish takes quite a long time to say anything in. It is why I am glad the elves were such kind creatures to teach us their speech and others, or this meeting with you would take a whole age to complete!"

Kafkalina gave a good laugh to this, it was indeed nice to speak with an elve again.

" Ho hmmm, well I have told you my story, would it be fine with you if I ask of yours? How have the elves been keeping themselves these long years? Hopfully much better than us ents."
