Night 6 / Closing Day 5

People seemed exhausted. And one can not blame them. Several days of continued pressure does tricks with human psyche.

As the people in the Quarantine had given such a good advice on old Sador Labadal the Day before, many thought it was a relief to let the responsibility lie on other shoulders than on their own. But other people were not happy with that, and stayed with their own suspicions – and so it was, that in the end, to no surprise for anyone who had listened to the discussions on earlier Days – that Old Halmir was called for.

“I’ve not fallen, or ill – but I do wonder if I’m in to my senses any more amidst this rule of evil. You are doing the Dark Lord’s bidding, I say. For Valar’s sake, at least take care that the House of Haleth isn’t going to die away. Húrin! Watch for my grand-grandchild! Give me your word!”

Húrin looked at the old man in pain.

“You know I do what I can lord Halmir. And young Brandir is as much my child as he is of your kin. I’ll watch after him, but…” Húrin laid his eyes down, not bearing to look at the old man in the face.

“I see. I know" Halmir answered warmly, like trying to soothe Húrin. It was a weird situation, like the one sentenced was forgiving the sentencer.

"Lacho calad! Drego morn!” Halmir yelled, turned on his heels and walked in, pushing Ragnir, who was ready to bring him in, away. “I can still walk with my own feet.”

Halmir clearly was no Infector of Morgoth – and seemed pretty healthy as well.
