After about an hour Glorfindel finally thought he saw the thieves in the distance.

''Is that them? Have I finally made it? I hope so, if only so I can finally rest.''

Glorfindel stumbled along through the Crow's Wood until the thieves were fairly close by. Then he tripped on a tree root, and fell down, shouting out in the process.

At least this will get their attention, he thought. ''Huh. Up close they look different. Strange. I don't remember them having wings... they almost look like... crows...''

And with that he suddenly realised the situation he was in. He tried to rise up, but it was too painful. He tried to cast magic, but he was too tired. He tried to draw his sword, but it proved to be too much of an effort.

'Well well well... what do we have here?' came the sniggering voice of the leader of the crows. 'If it isn't our little friend Glorfindel, come by to say hello!'

'Err, boss? What should we do with him?' questioned one of the other crows.

'Isn't it obvious? We should take him to Her, so that she may finally lock him up and keep him there! No more escapes. If we do that, She will laud us as heroes, and we will be awarded the strength we need to fight off the others!'

'But... every time someone tries to take him he just kills them along the way, and I don't want to die,' replied the other crow.

'But look - he's unconscious!' yelled back the crow leader. 'There's no way he could take all of us on. Just take a look at those wounds in him.'

The other crow, now suficiently convinced, went over to gather up the fallen Altmer.

'He's awful heavy, boss. I'm not sure if I can carry him all the wayback to the castle.'

'Oh stop fussing, and get on with it! There's no way he'll evade us this time. After all these years, we will be the ones to carry the Knight of Azura to Nocturnal's prison! Does your tiny mind have any knowledge of what that means!? How many times have our mistress' plans to get rid of him failed? She is tired of waiting. Now get him packed up, and let's be off.'

With that the crows departed for the castle.
