Beleg swept out his sword, standing shoulder to shoulder with Mablung as the only representatives of the kingdom of Doriath.

When army of Morgoth broke upon the elven ranks like storm-tossed waves against a cliff, the pair fought with silent fury, putting the enemy to flight wherever they went.

The dead littered the ground around them and still they fought on, bringing aid to the hard-pressed and a swift end to their foes.

When the tide of battle finally turned against them, Beleg and Mablung fought on, fierce and undaunted.

They survived but carried the grief of that day thereafter.

Emotional.

So many amazing drabbles from you lately.

Thank you! I'm trying to catch up!

They would have carried that grief, thereafter, yes!

[fredbassett]

Thank you! I don't think any survivor would have walked away unscathed, mentally.
