3 Chapter 3

After that he quickly returned to the inn to tell Aldarion, who was waiting for him, to go to the barracks to meet the captain.

While all this was happening, Aldarion was sitting in a dark corner of the inn, with a pensive look. He was a big fan of Aragorn, so he was imitating him in this. He would have liked to be smoking with one of the famous pipes of the movie but he did not have it and had no money to buy it.

Aldarion decided to get to work and get more information about his environment. To begin with, he only knew that he was in Middle-earth but did not know at what time, that would greatly influence the making of future decisions.

He decided to start talking to the system. The conversations he has with him are mental, so he would not seem crazy talking to himself. "System, can you tell me what date we are on?" After the direct question from Aldarion, the system responded quickly. "It is on the first day of the first month of 2600 of the Third Age"

"Year 2600 !?" Aldarion was very surprised because according to his knowledge this is long before the plot of the movies happens. Trying to remember everything, Aldarion remembered that according to this the north was in relative tranquility, but with the destruction of Arthedain quite recent. He also knows that Gondor has been in decline for almost a hundred years and that Rohan is already founded.

It seems that the biggest difficulty I was going to find was the lack of information about this era.

Aldarion was a bit sad because there would be many characters in the story that he could not know. Besides, he would have loved to be in the War of the Ring. "Well, I'll just have to make my own war." For now his plan was to reunite the Dunedain of the North even though he did not know how. "I'll think about it later, now the first thing I have to do is solve the problem of bandits."

Aldarion went to work and got to get more information about Bree until the innkeeper came through the door and addressed him directly. "You have to go directly to the barracks, Captain Gersten is waiting for you there." The waiter instructed an employee to guide him there and then return to continue working.

When Aldarion arrived at the barracks he met a middle-aged man, about 40 years old, who was heading towards him. "I guess you'll be the famous help they've talked to me so much about, right?"

"Yes, I'm Aldarion. Nice to meet you Captain Gersten." Even though Gersten was a little surly and moody Aldarion decided to turn a blind eye to this. I did not have time and arguing with him could lead to bad cooperation. "But do not mind, I have a plan and I would like to discuss it with you. The truth is that it is almost complete, but I need to know some details."

The captain, surprised that not only he had not bothered, but he was polite, decided to change a little the negative way in which he saw him and indicated him with a gesture to follow him to his office.

One look inside the office, Aldarion took a look at this one. It was a simple wooden room with a desk, a couple of shelves with books and maps, and several chairs. On the table was an unfolded map, when I looked at it in more detail he realized that it was from the city.

Both Gersten and Aldarion sat around the table, one in front of the other. The silence continued until Aldarion broke it by initiating the conversation. "Coff! Captain, I need to know what kind of men we have. I have two or three strategies in mind, but I do not know if I can carry them out without knowing what men we have."

Gersten was glad, those questions indicated that he was talking to someone intelligent. The opinion about did nothing but improve. "We have about 25 men telling me. Twelve spearmen, three archers and the rest use sword." After this Aldarion was once again silent, with a thoughtful expression.

After a few seconds Aldarion spoke again. "As far as the bandits are going, they will attack through the north gate. Since the city only has a small palisade, it will not scare them away, so I propose opening the north door, attracting them, and preparing an interior fence. The guards will stand around the fence and the archers on the rooftops, so we will have the advantage over the bandits."

When Gersten heard his plan he was speechless. The idea was magnificent, I could not refute it. "It's a very good idea, boy. I will take care of informing the men and preparing everything." The captain stood up suddenly and with energy, when he was about to leave the office Aldarion stopped him. "One moment Captain, there is something I would like to know" Gersten showing impatience and seeing that there was no problem I indicated with a gesture that spoke.

"Would you have an arch left over? The truth is that I am better with the bow than with the sword, but on my last trip it broke." Aldarion knew that it was a lie, in fact he has never used a weapon before, so he does not want to gamble on the first line until To be stronger.

The captain smiled and said "Of course, boy, there's no problem, we do not have the best bows, but it's better than nothing. I'll tell a guard to give you one." Aldarion looking calmer sighed and went to prepare for battle.

Hi guys! I just wanted to tell you that in principle I do not know how many chapters I will upload a week. I am a student so I do not have all the free time. In addition, history is still taking shape so it will go more slowly at this time.

I also want to tell you that I do not want to make a story in the plot of the movies for fear of carrying the story. I think the original is too perfect. That's why I want to do it at a time when history is blank. You have to keep in mind that it's going to be a fictional story in a fictional parallel world, technically it's a game.

Of course, well-known characters will appear because if they existed at this time I am the first one that wants them to come out in history.

Nothing else. I hope you like it!
