PROLOGUE

Fire, ruin, and chaos. Screams were heard, tears were shed. A husband mourns the loss of his wife in the midst of the fire, ruin, and chaos, until he is struck down by a collapsing house. A child stands in the middle of the street and cries as a cart filled with heavy armor comes charging towards him, but just before the child can be crushed an older man in a cloak rushes to pick up the child and carry him to safety.

That man is Gandalf the Grey, and he has come to this lost city in search of something mysterious, something powerful. As he makes his way through the fire, ruin, and chaos he finds a small wooden hut, untouched by the flames that have overtaken the lost city. Gandalf goes inside to find a young girl curled up on the floor, her hands clasped against her ears, and a silent scream coming from her open mouth. Bending down, Gandalf cradles the girl in his arms, picking her up and carrying her away from the town.

Once they are free of the screams that rip apart the silence of the night, Gandalf sets the girl down. She stands and stares at him, her golden eyes wide with fear.

"Do not be afraid, I will find a place for you." Gandalf tells her. She only nods and gives him a look of determination.

"Somewhere remote and alone," she says, "somewhere I cannot harm anyone."

Gandalf nods and holds out his hand. The girl takes it and Gandalf removes a pendant from his neck, he pricks his finger with it and in that moment Wizard and girl are whisked away.

They reappear in a remote forest. The air is humid and cool, and the grass is soft and warm. Gandalf takes the girl to the small two-story cabin that stands in the middle of a peaceful clearing. He shows her the inside and helps her get settled. When Gandalf leaves he places a spell of protection on the clearing so no one can find it, thus protecting the girl.

He sighs and leaves, this girl could be the answer to an unanswered question, but he would not break his promise to her. Ever 500 years later when he is slightly older and starting to embark upon a journey with a Company of Dwaves to reclaim their homeland. And with them a hobbit, who reminds Gandalf of the girl, hiding where no one would ever find her.
