Pippin decided that he liked Ardo. He was a fine fellow with a good taste for ale. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Taking Ardo's packages, he loaded them onto his pony (Carad for short) instead of riding himself.

As they walked, Pippin told Ardo as much about his life as he could remember. How he had come across the elves mostly, and how they had changed his life.

In truth, Pippin looked very much like a young elf-lad. Hobbits always had a slight point to their ears, so that aspect took care of itself. He had become very close to nature and animals, and spoke Elven frequently in his soft-spoken voice. (especially to Carad) He wore his hair in elf-fashion, too- long, with braids and small pony-tails around the face. However, there was one characteristic that most definately marked him as a hobbit- he was always joking and laughing and smiling. (especially after an ale or two [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img])

Ardo was a good listener. He was quietly thoughtful throughout Pippin's narrative, which was more talk in an hour than Pippin had spoken in five years in the Shire. When Pippin had talked himself out, (he would never speak that much again for a long time) Ardo began with his life story...
