<p><span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"><span style="color:#000000"><em>After ages of silence, I rediscover the joy of holding a quill. I am Elborrnir Calanw&euml;, a minor noble of Imladris. My title may be modest, but it granted me a place in the Last Alliance, where I fought alongside the greatest of our kin.</em></span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"><span style="color:#000000"><em>The battles of that time are etched in my mind. My sword and bow served me well as we fought against the darkness threatening all of Middle-earth. Yet, my valor met a cruel fate; the Witch-king&rsquo;s blade struck me down, casting me into a deep, dreamless slumber.</em></span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"><span style="color:#000000"><em>For ages, I was cared for by the healers of the Grey Havens and Rivendell. Their ancient arts preserved my life while my spirit wandered in the void. When I awoke, the light of Ered Luin greeted me, but the world had transformed, leaving me a relic of a bygone age.</em></span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"><span style="color:#000000"><em>I am not the same. The warrior from the Last Alliance exists within me, but I now carry the weight of history. My resolve has deepened; I will take up my sword and bow once more, for darkness never vanishes entirely.</em></span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:13pt"><span style="font-family:'Times New Roman',serif"><span style="color:#000000"><em>I write these words as a reminder: I am Elborrnir Calanw&euml; of Imladris, a survivor of the Last Alliance. Though the world has changed, my duty remains. I will protect the lands I hold dear, honoring the memory of those who fell, and may the light of the Eldar guide my steps in this new age.</em></span></span></span></p>
