Arwen Baggins - Alvinac and Kari
Alvinac had cleaned the house; it was quite cozy. When he heard that families were coming in from outside of the wall, he decided to help. "Who's it gonna be Father?" Kari circled her father as he pulled a blanket up over the pillow on the cot tied in a corner.
He stopped and put his finger to his lips. "Karianne! I don't know who it is?" He shook his head and told her to go and set the table for dinner.

Just before dark, a knock was heard on the door. "Kari! It's them! Get the door!" Alvinac rushed the only brush in the household through his burly hair.
Kari rolled her eyes and opened the door. A family- both parents, two babies, and a teenage boy- stood with only their clothes and a meager amount of supplies. "Welcome! I'm Karianne, and my Father's over there," She lifted her plaid skirt in a curtsy and welcomed the family inside.
