Maethor slowly made his way towards the stables and examined the tracks again. They were so faint...just like an elf. He leaned over and admired the light foot print of the elf woman beside the heavy tread of the horse. He smiled gently as his fingers gently trased the horse's print and he looked with admiration upon the barely perceptable print of the elf's.

Standing and brushing his long sandy hair from his eyes, he gazed about him...watching Amandur and Rauthain examining the prints and gesturing vaguely towards the grove of trees. Turning, Maethor scrutinized the grove and shook his head in puzzlement. It looked so cheerful now with the sunlight glinting from its leaves and its branches dancing sprightly in the wind. Nothing of the ominous mood seemed to hover about the trees now. Of course, one one could know what evil lurked under the fair light of the day.

Maethor noticed that Rauthain had departed from Amandur and was standing some distance away. Maethor slowly approached him and tried to remember if he had seen him before. His face was sad and full of distress. "What is it, friend Dunedain?" he asked. "What troubles you?"
