A/N There's no Rowan of Rin category so I had to use this one. Just a little idea I had. I might put some more up if people ask. Have fun. :DJW
Two kites swooped through the sky, leading the way to the village of Rin where they hoped to reclaim one of their own. The land they neared filled them with sadness and they thought to avert their eyes but their Traveller's curiosity caused them to look where they knew there would only be darkness. But today it was fated that the cold they feared and the darkness they regretted would be gone. When the forerunners turned their eyes to the Pit of Unrin, they saw, not the sludge and evil trees that had ruled the valley for as long as they could remember, but instead the valley was gleaming.
Tor and Mithren stared for a moment in awe before reaching for their whistles and signalling Ogden that a change of route was in order. Together they landed and drank in the sights before them. The ancient river had long been blocked by the damage caused by the devil trees, but now it spilled over the valley coating everything in gold. It had boiled it's way over everything, trying to escape back in to the deep earth where it had begun its journey. The trees were destroyed and the gold from the village hidden below was reclaimed into the river. The mountain had indeed claimed a price for the mistakes of the people.
Now months later the valley was covered in a layer of gold with the river flowing through the path it had claimed hundreds of years ago, connecting the valley to the mountains heart and completing the once lost ancient circle.
Ogdens first words upon seeing what was once the pit of Unrin, were simple but very meaningful to the Travellers gathered around him.
"The Valley of gold has returned. The pit of Unrin is no more"
