By the Valar we survived the night, the battle is done and we have survived. The men are bringing in the wounded there is so many. I walk among the rows of stretchers, moaning and the stench of blood fills the air. These poor souls, most are men some children and a few elves. Women run the halls searching for their men. Such devastation, who would hurt all these people. Looking around I notice a strong blond Ellon, in fine armour, I feel a connection and go to him. He seems so familiar, do I know him. He is in bad shape with a wound in his back and head. I know I have to help him somehow. I place one hand on his chest and one on his head, something takes over and I begin to chant a spell. I have no idea where this came from, but he begins to stir. I get up and leave not wanting him to see me, though I do not know why.

Haldir POV
It is so cold. I can feel the life draining from my body. This is the end. I pass this world, maybe my sister and parents will be waiting for me, though I do not know if they are dead or alive. My breathing is slowing. Suddenly I feel warmth pass through me, soft hands on my head and heart. A voice begins to whisper, with each word spoken I feel stronger and more connected to my body. I know this voice could it really be, is my sister with me now. As quickly as those hands came they are gone and slowly I begin to wake. There is no one near except for other wounded people and their families. Surely I did not imagine this, but I must have, though I know that was my sister's voice and healing song. I have seen her heal many and know those words as if they were my own.

Release him from death"
