The forest lies silent beneath a cold mantle of moonlight, every creature hushed as if the night itself is listening. Elrond rides along the southern edge of Rivendell, his grey eyes tracing the shadows between ancient oaks. No tracks of orcs mark the ground, yet the air feels heavy, charged with unseen danger. He brings his horse to a halt, his keen ears catching a faint rustle on the wind. His hand settles on the hilt of his sword, his head turning slowly toward the source of the sound. "Who goes there?" he calls into the darkness, the question lingering, unanswered, waiting for you to step from the shadows.
