Rinkemen was deep in the pages again when he glanced up for his glass. Empty. He sighed and turned to look at Borum when he saw Radiel and almost fell out of his chair at the suprise of her.
"Dear me Radiel! I do wish you wouldn't sneak!"

Radiel grinned.
"It was not my intend to startle you, sir. Rinkemen." The grin turned into a smile which switched to a frown.
"These books..." she started, looking at them. "You are not looking into my dream still, are you?"

"Either way, we might as well try and find out, don't you think?" Liran looked around at the people walking by .. they all seemed to be talking in the same stange speech Arinae had used.

He looked at her. "Would you mind helping us out? You are familiar with the language and customs of the place.. If you're going to stable Stardance, we might find someone there who knows more."

Rinkemen looked at one of the books then flipped to the image of the banners.
"Yes... I am, I'm sure it's important."
He exclaimed in success as he gave it Radiel.
"Are these what you saw?"

Radiel's jaw dropped slightly as she saw the painted image. Memories of her dream drifted back to her mind and she saw the whole scenery before her sight again. She looked at Rinkemen, worry filling her eyes.
"What are these?" She asked with a calm, yet insecure voice.

Arinae nodded firmly. "If you wish, I will accompany you..." She lead them towards where the stable was and began to pull the satchel's off Stardances back. Turning while doing so, she spoke to a stable hand, describing to him in Rohirric the appearance of Rowen's friend (let's say she got the description from Rowen earlier ^^), mentioning in an amused manner that Radiel would most likely be a young lady with an awe struck gaze upon her face. The stable hand looked thoughtful for a moment, then with a few hastened words in the same tongue, motioned towards a particular horse.

Arinae nodded her appreciation and turned to her companions. "He says he might have seen a girl matching her description with the mare over there, but she left shortly before we arrived."

Rinkemen took the book back and layed it against the other books layed out on the table. He sighed.
"I've been talking to Borum about them. All I've managed to find is that they are the banners of two powerful beings called Morinehtar and Rómestámo, although I'm pretty sure they will have other names."
He rubbed his eyes, it had been a whole day of reading.
"Does this mean anything to you? Can you remeber anything else?"

Radiel thought for a moment, then shook her head. The creatures of the army had indeed chanted two names, but if they were the same as those Rinkemen had just mentioned, Radiel did not know. She sighed and as a bit of hair fell into her eyes, she shoved it away. Placing her elbows on the table, she supported her head with her hands and raised a brow, as if asking what to do next.

Rinkemen sighed.
"I'll take that as a no."
He closed the book up and let out a heavy breath.
"You havent had more dreams I take it. We need to get back to Minas Tirith so I can use their bigger libary. Unfortunatly Rohan is limited with it's books."

Radiel frowned.
"Back?" she repeated.
So much for this adventure, she thought, sighing.

Radiel rolled her eyes.
"Well, I am old enough to make my own decisions. Even she knows that I am no child anymore."

Rinkemen shot a glare at her.
"That does not mean you can go on "Adventures" whenever you like, you still live with your mother and father, they need to know."

Radiel shook her head as if saying that she would hear no more of it. She got up and headed for the door, but before stepping outside, she turned back to Rinkemen and said:
"I did leave them a note..."
She sighed and left the house, paying no heed to her surroundings she ran to the big rock she had found before and climbed onto it. She always went there when she needed to gather her thoughts. The fields stretched far and wide, just like Radiel's mind.

Rowen nodded nervously at Arinae's words. She certainly hoped that the girl this man had seen was Radiel...picking up her satchel, she slung it over her shoulder decisively.
The three of them left the stables in search of food and lodging for the night. Edoras had no inn, but there were many families who would gladly rent a room for a fair price, and throw food into the bargain as well. It was not long before they found a home with room enough for the three of them. They dispersed to rest, each in their own manner.
Rowen dropped her pack in a corner of the room and sank down beside it. Digging through, she found the book she had packed at the beginning of her journey, just a few days before. Curling up with her head resting against the fireplace mantle, she opened the book and began to read.
Before long, she had difficulty keeping her eyes on the page. Rowen was surprised at how tired she was. Finally, she succumbed to sleep, reading one last paragraph before falling into slumber;
“And Andor, the Land of Gift, Númenor of the Kings, Elenna of the Star of Eärendil, was utterly destroyed. For it was nigh to the east of the great rift, and its foundations were overturned, and it fell and went down into darkness, and is no more. And there is not now upon Earth any place abiding where the memory of a time without evil is preserved.”

Radiel sat on the boulder for hours and as darkness grew slowly, she felt a sleepiness creeping upon her. With no intention of falling asleep, merely resting, she curled up and lay down on the big rock, dozing off.
The moon stood full on the deep ocean blue sky, howling could be heard in the east and time worked its way past midnight. The cold summernight breeze did not wake Radiel up, in fact, it almost had the opposite effect.
