Bones will be shattered,
necks will be wrung-

"Will you shut up." I shouted. All the goblins turned to look at me and the dwarves sighed a breath of relief as the awful song ended abruptly.
"And who are you to tell me what to do?" Demanded the Goblin King as I started to move forward but Fili caught my arm.
"Torien." He warned.
"We are all gonna die anyway." I replied, sighing in agreement he let me pass.
"I am-"But I was cut off by the cries of a goblin as he started to unsheathe Thorin's sword. It landed on the ground and all the goblins moved away from it.
"I know that sword." The Goblin King hissed. "It is the goblin-cleaver. The biter. The blade that sliced a thousand necks. Slash them." Once the command was given all hell broke loose.
"Beat them. Kill them." The Goblin King shouted as goblins jumped at us. I pulled two short blades from each boot. Tossing one to Fili I started to fend off on coming Goblins.

A flash of white light erupted throwing many goblins off the edge of the bridge. The light disappeared leaving the tall figure of a wizard.
"Take up arms." He instructed. "Fight." I scrabbled for my bow and blades. Swinging the bow behind me I cut goblin after goblin down. One after the other their foul bodies fell until we finally made it back out into the light of day.

~Flashback~
I knocked on the door of the guests sleeping quarters. The door opened from within to reveal a dwarf with a long white beard.
"What have they done now?" He sighed. "If it was stolen just go Nori, he is the one who wears the fur hat, if it broken then-"
"No, I'm not here due to any misplaced items." I said before he could continue.
"Oh, what can I do for you then?" He asked.
"I wish to speak with Thorin Oakenshield." I explained.
"I am sorry but he wishes to remain undisturbed, maybe if you return tomorrow-"
"I am sure he would make an exception." I replied simply.
"What name should I give him?" The dwarf asked with a sigh.
"Torien Aldelos." I said.
"Lady Torien, my apologies." The dwarf bowed with very little grace. "I did not realise it was you."
"No matter." I smiled.
"Come in." He said opening the door so I could enter.

"I asked to remain undisturbed, is that too much to ask Balin?" Thorin demanded from where he sat on the edge of the bed.
"Thorin Oakenshield." I said. He looked up at the mention of his name. "My name is Torien Aldelos." I explained. "I wish to join your company on this quest to reclaim the dwarvish homeland of Erebor."
