After a hard days ride the company makes camp on a cliff side.

"So Rai what's your story" Fili asks. " why so curious princeling" she retorts "why do you call us that anyway" Kili hops into the conversation. "Because young Kili she is the oldest living person here" Gandalf.
Fili and Kili look at her, she flashes them a soft smile. "It is true I am much older then any dwarf, wizard or hobbit in this company. I am even older then the oldest elf that is known in middle earth." She contributes as they set up their bed rolls. She gets a fire started poking it with a small stick. "If your the oldest being in middle earth why do they recognized her and not you" remarked kili " because even in time things and people grow old and fade some to the dust of the earth of which they return to or into the legends and stories told around warm hearths or fire sides" elaborated Rai . "Then what is your legend Rai" Fili urged "I'll tell you" she continues

Flash back
"Raineth where are you Ada is looking for you" Timoathy calls out for his sister "I am here brother" she jests back while hanging from her hunting tree she jumps down landing on his shoulders "Ada is looking for you Rai time to come home" her brother told her as he started walking home. Once the reached the hill top before their village, the village was set in flames screams of death and battle cries were heard throughout the fiery deaths of her people. "Ada, timoathy we have to save Ada" she began to cry. "No Rai you run and find a safe place to hide do not come out of that place till I come to get you do you understand" her brother scolded her taking off into the hell below.
Raineth ran for her life but not before picking up the secret stash of weapons the her Ada kept hidden in a hollowed out tree for his children. After that her race was forgotten to time them nothing but a legend to those that remained in middle earth.

That is my story I have yet to create a legend that is worth my name to be remembered throughout time, but maybe one day I will have my own legend to tell travellers around a fire. I will watch the world go on never to fade but to always stand when darkness fall across middle earth.

Third
