Prologue

There is a land and a race no other ever seen. Hobbits are the smallest and most are recognized as children. They have their own tales, songs and celebrations. They have heroes but prefer a live to be calm and settled. Not many of them travel or do something unexpected. Only a few you can find leaving their paths and search for some adventures.

She had never expected to be one of them. She knew she wasn't like her friends always looking shorter and never reach the glory of those around her. Gilriel felt like living in the wrong place and didn't understand what brought her to this place wasn't her own story but the story of another woman who she never had the honor to meet.

Her mother died giving birth to her.

She left a young hobbit all on her own. Adopted by dwarves Gilriel never expected to be someone she didn't even knew about until her home was destroyed and she had to start all over.

Chapter 1 – Far away from home

Gilriel didn't remember much of her life in the city. She wanted to forget humans and especially dragons. Her memories only came back at night and haunted her. She woke up shaking and walked over to the window but to look outside she had to climb on a human's chair.

The world was made for humans and the felt desperate. Gilriel was lonely since the day her parents died in the fire but this night her life was about to change when she saw two little men walking through the dark streets of Bree. They jumped out of the way for wagons and horses and were the first dwarves she saw in Bree. Maybe there were finally news from her homeland.
