When I last visited the Shire, it was with Edrahil. We had gone to Bag End to warn the inhabitants of impending terrible danger. However, after weeks of waiting, no danger appeared. Edrahil and I left the Shire in disgrace, never to return ( Read more... )

Edrahil and I have arrived at the door of Bag End, slightly worse for the wear. Shire mud has some sort of clinging effect to one's boots. Both Edrahil and I slipped several times while slogging to the smial. We must warn Frodo and Sam about the impending danger! Then we will hasten to Back End and warn those who may be there.

*turns onto his side pulling the furry bedspread tighter around himself; falls back to sleep*

*climbs up the final rung of the ladder leading into Tobey's flet*

Oh my. That was not easy. Especially in the dark. *fans self*
