Red Team Finale

After four gruelling days and nights trecking over a blizzard wrecked mountain range they finally seem to be coming to the point where the SCA is leading them. High up in the mountains, the blizzard is thick and keeping together will be difficult. It is easy to get lost, snowdrifts are high and often seeing past the end of their hand is a challenge.

But as the blizzard swirls it is possible to see three figures on the highest peak. It is hard to see through the storm but as they get closer it is clear that one of the figures at least, can see them.

“Icey you have managed to navigate my storm.” The voice is cold and doesn’t sound surprised at all. Despite the distance and the howling winds it is not hard to hear him, as if the wind was carrying the voice from him to you.

“Snow problem of course, you can’t stop me now.” There’s a rumble, a ripple that seems to move the earth itself, enough to knock them off their feet if they don’t brace themselves.

A moment later from all around them snowmen rise, wielding sharp icicles in both hands they stand between the red team and Professor Chill. Laughter echoes through the storm.

Nerdanel brought no weapon, but she is Noldor. She went never to war, the way so many of her family did, and she was forbidden to follow the Hosts of the Valar to Beleriand during the War of Wrath.

This does not mean she is helpless.

Somewhere along the line, she picked up a stick. Ostensibly for helping her climb the mountain. In truth, however... she's a lot stronger than she looks. Working with stone will do that to a body, plus, she's Eldar. One of the older laiquendi, born and raised beneath the blessings of the Valar and Light of the Trees. In the gloom of the storm she almost glows, if you look at her right. The soft welcome gleam and warmth of a banked hearthfire. She used the wander the wilds of Valinor, and even in blessed Aman there were beasts that sometimes need a big whack to the head.

Also that stick might be enchanted by Maglor, or even Feanor.

Considering how easily it smashes snowmen, it could just be that they're snow, it's wood, and she's strong, of course.
