To all my loves…Namaarie…
For the first time in all the years I have dwelled on this earth, I feel my senses are failing me. Everything has turned into a blur and I am fighting hard like a blind man, hearing the loud falling of rain in rhythm with the deafening pounding of my heart against my chest. I fear that my demise has finally fallen into the hands of my fate. I could hear death lurking all around me and echoing from within myself. I have only but my sword in my hand. Swinging… swinging. All around against the torrent of uruk-hai surrounding me. Incapacitating me, weakening me. My breathing is coming out in loud gasps, shallow and short-lived, yet, I know that I shall cease breathing altogether before the night ends.
Blood poured with rain. Blood of the First-borns, of my dearest comrades, of Numenoreans and of foul creatures. I hear a distant calling and I am finding my way towards it, yet at that moment, I feel a dreadful weight on my shoulders and a sharp, agonizing pain at the small of my back. I could feel cold metal mercilessly searing my flesh and finally, I fall on my knees; the blistering cold not helping one bit. And I can hear an uruk-hai's foul cry of victory over my lone, fallen body. It seemed all of eternity flashed before my blank eyes. How ironic. Throughout my life since I was but an elfling, I believed that I shall live to see the end of this world, yet know it can see me. See me finally falling into the darkness I thought I'd never reach. It is better to feel this way now, for I can forget about the piercing pain and the long-forgotten tears threatening to fall. My solemn reverie is then interrupted. I hear Elessar, my king, calling out my name, "Haldir!". And I feel an armored arm gently laying me down on the cold cement. An array of black and gray was all I could see and muffled calls of my name, "Haldir,Haldir", was all that reached my once-keen ears.
And thus, sweet Death shall claim me here. A profound peace amidst the chaos. And here shall my final breath leave my body and forever be gone. I have fought hard,I know I have, but I cannot do anything any longer. Please forgive me. To all my kindred, to this earth, to dear Elessar, Namaarie… and thank you.
When the cold of winter comes,
Starless night will cover day.
In the veiling of the sun,
We shall walk in bitter rain.
But in dreams… but in dreams,
I can hear your name.
And in dreams… and in dreams,
We will meet again…
"and 'ere hath death leave thy body barren, thy soul rejuvenated…"
