For: Talion :: @easternshadow
Unspecified Muse: Arathorn
Verse: Main
Sleep was apparently not on his list of what he needed to do that night. It wasn’t even anywhere close to being on said list. That was the reason why Arathorn, son and heir to the current Chieftain of the Northern Dúnedain, was looking out across the Pelennor Fields from the Watch-Point. He hadn’t planned to visit Minas Tirith, the ancient city built by his kin’s ancestors during the time when Isildur and Anárion ruled over Gondor as joint Kings. But here he was.
The 40 year old Ranger hadn’t really been given much of a choice when it came down to visiting. His dreams, well nightmares, had been keeping him up for the past few months yet it wasn’t from anything that he had been a part of. In fact, it wasn’t even anything to do with his kin. His dreams/nightmares were to do with one of the Ithilien Rangers from Gondor. Although who Talion was, wasn’t exactly known to them. Which meant the answers would only be found down South.
He ran a hand through just below shoulder length black hair and took a glance out in the direction of Osigiliath and Mordor. Speaking to the currently ruling Steward of Gondor and his son had helped to fill in some of the blanks. As well as finding information about the man and his family in the library. But something still bothered him about the dreams and he decided to go for a ride to try to clear his mind.
Arathorn didn’t take long to get down to the bottom tier of Minas Tirith and headed towards the side gate, where a dappled grey mare was waiting patiently for him. And then they were gone. Horse and rider making their way across the Pelennor Fields towards the other city. Although given how close they were to Mordor, the Ranger of the North kept his guard up and also trusted the mare to keep them from danger. He still wanted to know more about the Gondorian but wasn’t suicidal enough to go near Isildur’s old city, Minas Ithil.
It was the lightening darkness that had him entering Osigiliath and slipping silently through the various walkways, keeping to the shadows. Staying on guard with one hand on his sword in case he was attacked, something that was a possibility. Even with the presence of Gondor’s military, no one could ever be too careful. Despite knowing that there were Gondorians, something about the mostly deserted city was setting his instincts off. Unwilling to ignore those instincts, Arathorn started heading back towards the entrance, where his horse was waiting.
Unaware that he was researching someone who had gone Dark or that his presence had not gone unnoticed.

❝ In the end, Morgoth would be defeated. But not before much sorrow. For his Orcs had spread to every corner of Middle-earth, multiplying ever greater under the command of his most devoted servant, a cruel and cunning sorcerer. They called him Sauron. ❞
