As he broke a piece of bread, Thanatos stole a glance at the elf maiden. He smiled inwardly as he looked at his friend fondly. Mulawin had grown from that young lad who trailed behind him never tiring of stories of the wilds. He considered the young man more of a younger brother than a friend.
Mulawin was saying "Thanatos has been with the rangers longer than I. He's been to places I have not reached yet. Even far down to the borders of the Harad."
"The Haradrim are a fierce people. They've often invaded Gondor's territories. The Haradrim were one of the fiercest allies of the Enemy. Its a blessing that King Elessar now rules- its been a while since Gondor had a king."
Thanatos sat back, a far away look on his face.
"Thana, you've been to Rohan. Were you able to see the Mearas?"asked Mulawin.
"Aye indeed. And magnificent is an understatement to describe them!"
He smiled at Gwenneth. "Do you ride, my Lady?"
