Thenin sat their with his mouth open, gawking at the Doctor, The Doctor was not a very large man, thin shoulders, a small nose, and brown hair cut to about ear length was how Thenin would describe him. Thenin had no idea how old he was, younger than Thenin’s dad that was for sure. It was a t this point that Thenin’s brain started working and he heard what the Doctor said.
Now Thenin had no idea what verdict meant but he clearly understood death. He felt a tear form in the corner of his eye. “ How could they do that to Lanya… To the Angel?” Thenin felt a rising urge in him, a sense, a feeling, but he was no longer sad. Now he was angry, Thenin pushed off the covers and jumped out of bed. He then continued to run down the hallway and out the door. It was about at this point that Thenin realized that his clothing was in fact clean and unwrinkled. This was abnormal, Thenin pondered it and then shrugged it off.
Thenin thought about going straight to the council, but realized that while they would offer him up as a sacrifice so that they could convince his father of their way, they would never otherwise listen to him. Thenin ran straight on to the cage that sat close to the middle of town. He burst through the door and fell from exhaustion outside of Lanya’s cage.
Lanya sat there blankly staring at him. “Where have you been? Some village idiot has been bringing me my meals and he was not altogether polite…”
“They are going to execute you!” Thenin cut her off with his shout, as tears streamed down his face.
Lanya’s face was hidden in shadow, but Thenin thought he saw it darken a little bit more. “I know. The idiot I told you about already let that slip.” A drop of light fell from Lanya’s face. A little shocked, Thenin realized that it was a tear. Lanya was trying so hard to hide her sorrow.
