Not So Long
~
Vittorio left early the next morning as the sun was rising, on the horse he had rode into the town and to his fate. His village was no more than four days ride away and he was eager to see his mother's face again.
Four days later the sun was setting slowly in the west and Vittorio was in sight of his house. In the yard before the house were two girls, sitting together under a large tree.
Vittorio stopped outside the gate and sat on his horse. The two girls looked up and came to the gate, "Can we help you, sir?" The younger of the two asked.
"Septima?" Vittorio asked the girl.
"How do you know my name? Have we meet before?" Septima, the girl asked, looking slightly caught off guard.
"It is me, Vittorio, your brother, do you not remember me?" Vittorio dismounted his horse and both of the girls stood in shock.
"Vittorio, it's been years since we've seen or heard of you!" The other girl, Nahunta cried out.
"You both have grown so much since I have seen you last!" Vittorio opened the gate and pulled both of his sisters into a hug.
"Who is that!?" A voice cried out from somewhere behind the two, a young man had just emerged from the house and was headed towards the three.
"Septimus, it is Vittorio!" Septima called to their eldest brother.
"Vittorio! You have returned to us!" Septimus also embraced Vittorio and lead him towards the house, "Mother will be glad to see you, she swears you are dead!" Septimus opened the door and let Vittorio.
A woman sat at a table facing another young man, Vittor, the last of her children and the two were quietly conversing.
"Mother, Nepita, Vittorio has returned to us." Septimus announced.
Nepita turned and looked at the young man before her, she recognized him immediately, even ten years away couldn't hide her son from her.
"It has been to long my son." She held him tightly against her, "It is a happy day that you have returned, the Valor must be pleased with us!"
The reunited family sat together, once again at the table.
"You all have grown so much since I last saw you." Vittorio looked at his two little sister who had become lovely young maidens, his younger brother who looked remarkably like himself and the broad figure of his elder brother who had taken on the features of their deceased father.
"What do you plan to do now that you are back?" Vittor asked.
"I don't know." Vittorio shrugged he hadn't thought of that yet.
"Be glad he has returned at all." Nepita, now happy mother held her son's hand.

The Lord and Lady Cyril had now been happily married for exactly one year and the Lady was expecting her first child, which she knew she wanted to name Vittorio or Vittoria in honour of her friend and protector Vittorio through their enslavement.
The Lord Cyril had been a loving and devout husband to his beautiful wife and the two could not have been happier.
Both Giolla and the malicious women to sold Elrohir had recently died from sickness in the yard and no one was grieved of their sudden departure from the world.
Cook had stayed with Lord Cyril and would until the end of her days, not wanting to leave her set life and the luxuries she had.
Valora never got to journey back to her home or see any of her family again but it was made up to her in healthy children, four strong boys; Maximus, Ector, Dacian, and Korbin, and two beautiful daughters; Dulcina and Sidonia.
Their village grew and prospered until the War of the Ring when many of the men left to fight and even Valora's four boys fought, fortunately they all returned home only Ector was injured badly.
Dacian took his father's place as lord of the village and their family line grew with honour and pride.
~
Vittorio and his brothers also fought in the war against the ring, though only Vittorio and his older brother, Septimus, returned to their mother. Vittor died in the midst of the battle among many other brave and valiant men.
Vittorio never married but lived in his mother's house and watched over his sisters until they married and cared for the house and their small farm until the end of his days.

The End
