Alas, we have finally caught up with Peony! We saw her camped this morning, and we all met for our breakfast.

We have walked 278 miles.
We are deep in the wild south of the Great Road (272).
It is 8 miles to the next landmark.
We still have 180 miles to Rivendell.

The land before them sloped away southwards, but it was wild and pathless; bushes and stunted trees grew in dense patches with wide barren spaces in between. The grass was scanty, coarse, and grey; and the leaves in the thickets were faded and falling. It was a cheerless land, and their journey was slow and gloomy.
