: Dire Marshes
: I hate this place. It was 1000 years ago that Bahl?al
: killed me here, and 6 since he pulled me out again.
: People think that because I?m a shade that I serve my
: master with his mind only and have no minds of our own
: and I suspect that in some of us that might be true.
: Some of us, hah... when I went to that battle, I never
: suspected that I would be a shade in 1000 years,
: serving the one I went to undo.
: Now all I do is float around, sleepless and watch the
: thrall. I hate the thrall.
: I can feel his mind in me sometimes, like a huge
: throbbing lump and when he tries I can do nothing
: except succumb for pain and the anger that builds up
: in me. He does this during battle. I cannot control my
: body and my mind feel useless; like I am in slow
: motion, this happened today for the last time.
: I went into a trance and when I came out I was all but
: spent lying in a pool of blood 3 feet deep of what
: must have been my victims, it appears that thrall,
: berserks and some other indistinguishable corpses must
: have fought here, as always, I assume that I must have
: killed them all.
: As I realized what had happened, I felt for his mind,
: looming in on me, but it was nowhere, as if it had
: just evaporated.
: When I got up and began to walk?not float, for once, I
: couldn?t float, try as I might?I felt a great hole,
: not in the earth, but in the air, even form far away
: and I moved toward it. As I moved closer, my skin
: began to crack, and my joints ached, and I felt pain
: again, a blessing after all these years of
: numbness?and then I saw it, A pile of corpses and a
: cracked pile of rocks. And then I realized, Bahl?al
: was finally dead, I do not know how or when, I may
: have been unconscious for days but I am finally really
: free, and the sorceries that bind my soul to this
: world in this body are disintegrating, so I finish
: this report and hope that some among the wise may thus
: learn the tale of the last hours of Mazzarin the
: great. Now I may finally meet Wyrd again.
: Gothmog
: ps. i know that there are errors and if you tell them to
: me i will fix them. also this is my first fanfic so
: flip out and kill me over the details.
