Chapter 1: The First Arrow

Not idly do the leaves of Lórien fall

I am Haldir, first marchwarden of the Galadhrim, guardian of Caras Galadhon and a humble servant to Galadriel, the lady of light and Celeborn, the lord of Lothlórien.

Long have our lands been safe of war and destruction, not only by the skill of our archers but also by the grace of lady Galadriel, and her Nenya, the ring of Adamant... but the world is changing, we feel it in the water, we feel it in the earth, we smell it in the air. Much that once was is now lost.

A great evil stirs once more in the lands of Mordor, a darkness which has already taken root in the forest of Eryn Galen... Mirkwood: Orcs, trolls and spiders infest the lands around Amon Lanc once again and whispers of a shadow of the past become increasingly louder... the Necromancer, Annatar... Sauron.

Dark times are upon us, yet whilst the Noldor across great Hithaeglir return home to Valinor we Galadhrim have chosen to stay and honour our alliances of old, to the men of Rohan and the Beornings of the Anduin Vale, to the White Council and wise Saruman.

We stand at the crucible of the elves' future in these lands, but we cannot stand alone. In the northern reaches of Eryn Galen lies the Woodland Realm, where Thranduil and his Silvan kin reside. If we are to weather the coming storm, and cleanse the great Greenwood of the filth of Mordor - we can only hope to do so together, in a union blessed by Yavanna herself!

Therefor it should be our priority to help our northern kin reclaim the fortress of Dol Guldur and exterminate its castellan Khamul of the east. This quest stands upon the edge of a knife, stray but a little and it will fail to the ruin of us all. Yet hope remains whilst our arrows strike true.

May the light of Elbereths Stars guide us through this long night. Aiya Eärendil elenion ancalima!
