They were unlike any creature she had ever seen or heard of. She turned around and aimed her bow at one of the creatures. A hand grabbed her. Hanalei spun around and faced her father. His face was covered in blood. He pressed a piece of paper into her hand.
"Run into the woods of Lorien! Find an elf named Haldir. He will take you to Galadriel." Her father, Rennin, frequently visited the wood.
"I will not desert you and our people. I am needed here for I am a good fighter."
"Go!" Her father spun her around and pushed her to the forest. Hanalei stumbled off and ran into the forest. Some of the things followed her.
Hanalei heard them following her but kept on running. Turning, she shot two arrows deep into the hearts of her pursuers. Turning back she stopped suddenly, just in time to prevent colliding into a handsome elf.
"Haldir, I need an elf named Haldir. My father, Rennin, sent me here." Hanalei gasped out the words.
"I am Haldir. What did your father send you for?"
"Our village was attacked. By what, I cannot say. They were looking for me. I need to talk to Galadriel."
Swoom! Arrows came flying into the glade. One found their mark and hit Hanalei in the leg. She collapsed, unable to run. Haldir picked her up and began to run, cradling her in his arms. The constant jarring hurt her immensely but she managed to keep from crying out. She was aware of arrows still whistling around but then all was black.
*Those things were swarming around in the millions, swirling. And everywhere more were arising, formed the muck. A rasping voice that jarred called out, "STOP and listen to your lord, Melkor." Hanalei trembled at the mere mention of that name. The things trembled as well and stopped their constant motion, which was just as well because watching those beings swirl together was making her sick. The stench enough was alone enough to make her woozy.
"You are to go and find a she-elf named Hanalei," the voice shuddered as he said her name. It was as if it brought him great pain to say it. "She is living in an elvish village near Lothlorien. Bring her to me unharmed and unspoiled. Do what you will with the rest. Go my iniq's and get this girl. Bring her to me! She is of much importance to me. She will help me conquer Middle Earth."
Hanalei shivered as the iniq's walked out of the pit and towards the north. These were the same things that had attacked her village.*
