Awaking again, Gimli felt once more the hard, cold unforgiving stone beneath him. The ceiling too was becoming familiar as he hadn't moved in days, left by the orcs under their careless presumption that he was dead. The wind, whistling outside was all he could hear, no voices, no footsteps. Attempting to move his legs, the Dwarf reeled in frustration, every waking hour he spent trying to move. The strict binds around his ankles and wrists enabled him only to wriggle and in this way he exhausted himself. Having had no food for days was also having its effect. Weak and helpless he became and it would only be a matter of days until... he couldnt bear to think about it. To raise his spirits he sung, a deep Dwarvish song of the mines. Singing softly to himself he waited, for sleep and a new day.
